Great bike for a tall gal By L.W. from Los Angeles on 01/10/2009 Pros: Good Value, High Quality Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I'm 5'11" with shorter-than-average arms, so finding a road bike that fits has been really hard. All of the major manufacturers that make women-specific bikes don't make them for women over 5'9". This bike fits like a glove.
I was wary of spending so much for a bike over the Internet. But the bike was easy to assemble, if you know a little bit about bike repair. I didn't have to adjust the derailleurs.
The frame arrived with a little scratch on the top tube, but no major damage.
I swapped out the pedals because I use a different kind of cleat on my shoe but the ones that come with it have a side for using with cycling shoes and a side for street shoes. I also changed the tires for wider, thorn-resistant ones as I live in an urban area.

Good improvement over stock By Old Pa from Northwoods on 06/30/2008 Pros: Comfy, Durable, Good Padding, Lightweight Best Uses: All Around, Mountain Biking Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Saddle tech has come a long way in the past decade. Now that I'm riding again, it's nice to have some comfy saddles filter down to a reasonable price level. Gotta ride now . . .

Cool comfort with good support and no chafing. Your butt may vary, but this works for me!
