equus123,

Congratulations on your new bike!
It is sweet! Oh, and I sure enjoyed your
very descriptive review of this bike. Thanks for sharing

I am interested and have been looking
at the Madone 4.5. You mentioned that you are 5'5 inches-
so, may I ask what size frame you got?

Anyway, Enjoy your ride, I know you will share
many, many, many miles and adventures with your new bike.
Again Congratulations.
