If you have a Specialized Ruby, what size frame do you ride and how tall are you? Is the bike a good fit for your height?
I am interested in a Ruby and just need a starting point.
Thanks for you help!

Just remember, bike fit has to do with your whole body! Height alone can be completely deceptive, so take into account your propotions too.
Me - 5'0", 28.5/29 ish inseam, short arms, short torso 44 cm Ruby.
Most bike shops would have me on a 48, mainly because I can stand over it.

Eden is so right. I have the Ruby Pro, I also had a Dolce and I took a 51cm in both. I am 5'2 my inseam is a 29 0r 30. Most ladies my size seem to take a 48 in these bikes, but I felt too crunched. So trying it out would be best.

I'm 5'.5" and have a 30" inseam. I have a 51cm Ruby Pro. I think it fits me really well.
