I just wanted to thank all of you lovely ladies for advice. I wound up going for the 43cm 2005 WSD Trek 2100. The LBS guy suggested a smaller stem (from 100cm to 90cm) as he thought I was a smidge streched out...but otherwise a great fit. He had to order the stem but recommended I ride some without the change to see how I feel once they swap it out. I took her for her first "real" ride today. Not for speed....just to test her out...
First of all...coming from a mountain bike...she's soooo fast. I'm so excited to get back out there again. I have just about an inch of clearance and have the 650 tires. My SO's brother said, "that's just the tiniest bike I've ever seen". But, he felt it was a great purchase and a great bike.
I'm very happy! And, I'm glad I have the clearance..especially since I'm getting used to the clipless pedals. I think clearance is a good thing :)
Thanks again and happy riding!
