Thanks for your help. I went and rode some more bikes today, and you're right, Sora is not what I want. The configuration of the shifters just did not get along with me and my small hands. I liked the Lemond Reno I rode, which was Tiagra, but the 49 is a little too big for me and looking on their website, I don't think they go any smaller. The Trek 1500 that I rode had 105 Ultregra, which was the same as the Fuji Finest 1.0 that I rode the other day. The Trek was a 47, the Fuji a 44. They were both a little out of my price range, but I think I can swing it. I'm going to go back and ride both again, for a little longer this time. I think the main reason why I'm preferring these is that they were actually small enough and I didn't feel stretched out on them (although the 44 might have been a tad bit small). Thanks!
