Hello! I am in the market for a new bike, and could use some suggestions. (I have conducted some research). Relevant details below:
– 37yo woman
– I am disabled with a chronic nerve pain disease that affects my knees and back
– 5’5”, currently 162lbs, but will be dropping to 130lbs over the next few months
– currently, I can handle about a half mile ride total
– I ride on pavement, it’s not always perfectly smooth
– due to my limitations I mostly just bike for errands to the closest grocery store, but would like to build up to more pleasure riding, though go I could not ride for more than 1-2 miles max due to my disease
– budget is $300 max
– Currently interested in [this](https://retrospec.com/products/beaumont-7-speed-step-through-city-bike) bike
– not bearing much/any weight on my wrists is very important as I have issues with them as well, so I believe that means upright riding?
Please let me know if you require any additional information, and thank you in advance!
