Guess I'm a Specialized Ruby girl still.

I visited 6 shops since my bike was taken. (Tucson has a LOT of bike shops!) I test rode four brands: Trek (Lexa - for size only as there were no Trek Silque's in my size anywhere), Giant-Liv, Cannondale (Synapse) and Specialized (Ruby). I have another short friend and we were able to take the Synapse and a Ruby out together and trade off. The Synapse was noticeably lighter and a bit more skittish although nearly the right size, but the Ruby just felt like it fit better and was comfortable.

The Ruby I tested was a Ruby comp with the electronic shifters but it had the white-white-white paint job that I couldn't love. I ended up ordering the Ruby comp with disc brakes. It was a nicer color - off-white with turquoise and charcoal accents) and will be ordered Monday and in the shop Thursday! I can't pick it up until Friday though. They will take the measurements from my Retul fit from a few years ago and it should need very little tweaking.

They gave me an awesome deal- not that much over the list price for a regular Ruby comp, so I will get all my accessories there.
Whew- glad that's taken care of. I can't wait to ride on Saturday!!!
