The best reviewed comfort bikes for women use a women's-specific design, or WSD, which features a shorter top tube geometry to cater to the smaller torsos of female riders. A women's specific bicycle also comes in smaller sizes for more petite women. The handlebars are usually narrower, and wide seats provide ample comfort for the wider hips of most women.
