As the handlebar wasn't locked into place when you press it, it landed on her legs when she used it. She also thought that the handlebar was on the shorter side. This is especially the case when a large change bag hangs from it.

The four rubber composite tires are great for pavements and urban terrain. However, they are not made for off-roading.
