Performance or endurance bike?

I forgot Specialized!

Their women's endurance bikes are the Ruby and the Dolce.

Men's are the Roubaix and the Secteur.

From your height and limb sizes I can't tell whether men's or women's are the best place to start. Just depends how long a reach you need. Make sure you test both styles no matter what bikes you try. And if the shop attempts to steer you to what they have on hand or automatically makes assumptions rather than takes your measurements thoroughly, I would go to a different bike shop.

Thanks Sheila!!!! I love options!
