Azfiddle - that made me smile and what a coincidence - I'm glad St Patrick'sDay helped you buy your bike

That's what I got too azfiddle, not too long ago, from my '07 ruby to an '11! Rides like a dream, I love her! Enjoy your ruby, may you have many happy miles!

Your Ruby is gorgeous. I think Specialized out did themselves with their color scheme of bikes this year. I am not usually a fan of matte paint jobs but love your blue as well as the Komen Ruby in matt black and pink.

I am also most comfortable and love my Ruby. Wishing you many enjoyable cycling miles.

I love the matte blue color! I did not actually see the bike before they ordered it- I didn't even look at any of the bikes in the store because they were not in my size. The choice was white or blue- and since my old bike was blue and I had a lot of blue jerseys etc I asked for them to order the blue.

After I switched out the saddle I went in to have the fitter check everything one more time. It's windy today but I hope to ride again tomorrow.

I just wound up ordering the same bike! Nice to see your IRL photos of the blue, since I haven't seen it yet.

I finally arrived at the decision to order the Ruby Elite in white w/ turquoise, and they were going to swap out the Apex components for 105s and just charge me the difference. I really liked the teal but it's unavailable until June, and I'm not that patient. When they found out the white/teal was unavailable, they offered me either the matte black & Komen pink Elite that they had in-store, or a Comp that they were willing to give me for the price they quoted for the Elite with swapped out components. Awesome. I went with the blue. Can't wait for it to arrive.

It's amazing, we've had 5 days in a row of decent weather (at least no rain!)...this one feels even more amazing than my original ruby - I guess a new bike will do that though! I was the same, I had to order it sight unseen and the colour blew me away when I saw it! Looking forward to lots of time on this saddle too!
