Plus, the quality of a bike isn't nearly as imprktsnt as how well you fit on it, imo.

Can you bench press 450lbs? Begin male or female or whatever doesn't really matter. It sounds like and looks like she can put out some serious power. Serious power on cheap parts are more likely to break them. What is so hard to understand?

She should ride something that she can enjoy and not have to be delicate with. It should fit well but also she should be able to ride it with confidence and not have cheap parts that will break.
