I am starting to shop for my next ride. I will almost certainly stick with Cannondale, since it's the primary brand our shop carries, without spending a ton more on a "niche" brand or custom. This time around I am looking at the same size frame (48cm), but SRAM Rival components. SRAM's shifters are all adjustable reach, so that solves the hand-size issue.

Any idea what your inseam (crotch to floor) is? You may do better on a WSD, but you may do well on a unisex bike, too, especially if you have a longer torso, like me.
73cm or so.
