    Kenyon, I have a Kuota, which is also Italian. They are known for their tri bikes, but they also make quite a few roadie models. I have an x-small Kebel. It's about 48 cm, with a slightly sloping top tube. I am 5' 1" (barely) and it's a pretty good fit. I have some stand over clearance and the bike comes with 700 wheels (I had 650s on my Trek). I really can't comment on the Campy stuff. I've always had Ultegra on my bikes. When I got this bike, I bought 38 cm shallow drop bars and got the Ultegra R 700 short reach brifters. This has made a world of difference. I had shims in my previous brifters, which I felt compromised my braking ability and didn't really help with the reach issues.
    The shop I bought my bike at also sells Willier and I know a couple of women that bought them. They are both taller, though. Nice looking bikes, too.

    If you don't like Trek or Specialized, the Cervelo RS Ultegra is getting rave reviews, but it has Ultegra, of course. Personally, I like Ultegra and the new version is supposed to be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

    Must stop dreaming of a new bike, must stop, must stop.......
