So, for me, that's why the Z.

Absolutely this!

My mother made me a very similar offer when I was in high school. But her list was far more restricted than your wife's. I loved my bike, but it didn't have a back seat

But she achieved her goal as I never even considered owning another bike.

Your definition of "comfortably" is much broader than mine. I would probably concede that there are only four months where you have an opportunity to ride comfortably.
