we bought a Schwinn Sanctuary for my wife this summer and she likes it a lot. It is not overly light but it just depends on how fast and how far you want to go. We're just riding around the neighborhood.
There are better bikes out there I'm sure. But this one we got for 80 dollars at a rummage sale and it was only 2 years old and in very good shape. I just needed to adjust the brakes a little and give it a good cleaning. Pump the tires up. She was looking at getting the Huffy Cranbrook from Walmart cuz of the price, but I think this is the better bike. I doubt that one would've been a big problem though, despite it being a super cheap bike. Although who knows.... they do feel kind of cheap. But for short, neighborhood rides it probably would've done just fine.
