New (comfortable) "race" bike, Madone 4.7, Specialized Amira

[zoom-zoom]

I tried the 48 women's synapse and it fit perfectly. The 44 was a little too small... Do you think for a "longer" torso, the 48cm men model would actually be better than the women's model?

Boy, it's tough to say. But if the 48 Synapse fit, then I'd think either the men's or women's 48 SuperSix would work. I just noticed there are no SRAM options on the women's models, either...which is sorta lame on Cannondale's part. Perhaps there's just not enough market to offer the same # of packages.

I definitely liked the colors on the guy's frames, too...but I'm sorta partial to orange.
