You probably don't get much teasing at your name, not like I do with my last name. I think Rachel is a great name...Ever rent that movie "One night with the king"? Good Rachel in that one I seem to remember.
My wife is 5'3" and has a pretty short inseam that limited her bike choices. She liked the Ninja 250 (1st gen) cause it has a 29 in seat height but after all is said it goes back to confidence, like Lauralynne. If they can muster enough confidence or master the butt slide the seat height isn't that big an issue. Weight of the bike on the other hand sometimes is with the height impaired as it has to lean a great deal further when one footing it.
