Kleins tend to be, ahem, female hostile for many. That's unfortunate,
since
there's something about the visual presentation of the Klein that draws
women to them.

Maybe for large women. However, it does not apply to the small Kleins. My
wife rides a Quantum 48cm and an xs Adroit. She loves both.

I know a couple of pixie gals who love their Kleins too.

Only major
drawback is the integrated headset the Kleins came with for years. When they
turn bad it is not easy to service them. Not even the Klein dealers have
parts in stock : (

Those suck. Unfortunately, they're becoming more prevalent. However, you
should be able to get a retrofit kit, to install a standard headset.
