    I do.

    Mine is the Ruby Expert. Height, use to be 5'6" now I think I'm closer to 5'5".
    Inseam about 28"ish. Hope that helps. bikerHen

    Yet, I have an inseam of 29 1/2 and that bike would be way too big for me because my legs are long for my torso.

    for six tanks of gas you could have bought a bike.

    Yup - just goes to show how individual we all are.
    Me - 5'0" - 29"ish inseam and I ride a 44cm Ruby......

    Not to hijack, but how do you all like the Ruby? I am considering a new bike and it's on the list of ones to try. Thx.

    I am also riding a Ruby Expert, but it's a 56 cm. I'm 5'8", but not sure about inseam.

    Derf - LOVE IT! This is my 2nd road bike (replaced an entry-level Specialized Allez) & I couldn't be happier!

    Thanks everyone! I am 5'5.5 and ride a 51cm Ruby (used to ride a 52cm Roubaix). My sister is 5'8 and I was wondering whether she might need a 54 or a 56. I know you can't be sure until you sit on the bike, but I was curious as to what you ladies ride!

    I'm 5'7.25", inseam almost 32". I ride a 54 Roubaix, because my torso/reach is way too long for a WSD bike. My femurs are kind of short relative to my tibia. I could almost do a 52 with a long stem.

    It is hard to judge by others. I ride a 51in Dolce Comp and I am 5'2. I think my inseam is a 29 or 30. I thought that "when" I get a Ruby I would most likely be the same size as the Dolce.

    I have a Ruby Expert and love it. I'm 5'6" with an inseam of about 29-30, I think. As everyone is saying, we're all different. I have a friend who has the same bike, she's 5'8" and rides a 51. Go figure. By the way, we both love our bikes and couldn't be happier.
