I am not into bike technicals. I just want a bike to ride. So when I look through posts I don't understand what goes with which bike and what each thing does.

I liked the way the shifters worked with brake on the blue one. That is not available on the pink and black one. But does that really matter?

Are you saying that the lower priced ruby is better?

I don't have much selection in bikes because the sales guy fitted me for a 44 and there aren't too many bikes to pick from at that size. I will be taking it for a long test ride before I actually put the money on the table. I took a test ride today on a different bike today but was so nervous and tired (Long fast ride this morning) that I kept shaking and just went up the street. I'll be better with one I think will be mine.

Oh, my significant other thinks the blue bike is very pretty.
