The LBS didn't have one to try, so they measured me, took the dimensions of my Ruby, and ordered a 46. I'm under no obligation to take it if it's not a good fit. Fingers crossed... I'm a long-legged, short waisted 5'41/2". Hope it fits.

Have you ordered your bike yet?
I saw mine in person today and bring it home tomorrow! It is a beautiful blue, and it looks even better than it does in the picture. I love the size, it is compact, and quite enticing. I won't be putting racks or fenders on it for a time, not until I am comfy with it (I am a new rider), but it isn't a light weight! It also is not that heavy, I picked it up today and it felt like it weighed just a smidgen more than my Trek 7.6 FX. I can't wait to get it out there and see what it really feels like
