So I went to a bike shop close to my house yesterday and rode a few bikes. Luckily, the guy who helped me out was very friendly and not snobby at all (plus, he was cute and had a cute accent). I tried out women's specific bikes, which worked out really well for me, since I'm short, short-waisted, and all legs. The reach on all of them was great, with only a slight adjustment on the seat on one of them - he slid it forward a tiny bit and it was perfect. I tried the Trek 1000, the Specialized Dolce and the Dolce Elite - the Dolce Elite felt the best, though it's at the top of my price range - but it's also pretty

Has anyone had, or currently has any of these bikes? How did they work out? Anything you liked/disliked?
