vs the 2012 Ruby Elite Apex? $2100

If so, they are almost the same, except that the 2011 has Shimano 105 and an 11-28 cassette.
The 2012 is equipped with Apex (which many have said are comparable to 105's if not better) and has a 11-32 cassette.
Is the 2011 a triple?
If they both fit and your heart is set on the 2012, I would probably go with that one but I'll let the real bike experts chime in.
