Well, a funny thing happened...I forgot to mention that when I bought my Era, I also tried an XS pivot 5.7. Well, I didn't buy it the Pivot last week. I bought the Era, but I couldn't stop thinking about the Pivot. So, I called the owner of my LBS and told him my situation. He said "so, you want to exchange your bike and pay the difference?" And I said, "uh, yes." Now I am the proud owner of a Pivot 5.7!!!!!!! She's a beauty!
