There's no way ANY LBS will carry the 44 SuperSix. (I would have to order it and would be required to buy it then. I'm afraid that the 44 will be too small. I tried a Cannondale Synapse 44 and it felt too cramped)
Maybe not. My 48cm Synapse was noticeably shorter-reach than my 48cm SuperSix. I think I almost would have been comfier on a larger Synapse. So the 44cm might really be perfect (I looked at the geometry and the women's SuperSix has a half cm longer top tube than the Synapse, plus I think the seat angle would have you angled back a bit more, IIRC). The only downside is that you would be limited to a women's frame and not have the choice of any groups other than Shimano. But that's still a sweet ride.
