New Ride...
I've been test riding bikes the for the past several weeks when weather permitted and had narrowed down the options.
I made my decision and brought her home today!! 2009 Specialized Ruby Elite. New bike and older model so it was a pretty good price. Full 105, Shimano 105, 10-speed, 12-27t (Cassette) - 50 x 34t (Compact) Chainring. http://www.cincylights.com/images/ruby.jpg http://www.cincylights.com/images/rubyside.jpg http://www.cincylights.com/images/rubytopbar.jpg http://www.cincylights.com/images/rubyandshannon.jpg Can't wait to take her out for a true first ride!!

Looks like an awesome bike, enjoy it!

Congrats - my wife has the Ruby and she loves it. Couple of thousand miles later and it rides as strong as day one. Good quality bike - congrats again! :)

Very nice bike! Sleek looking and eloquent.
Is there something wrong with me that I think a bike looks eloquent? |

Very nice bike.
My bikes speak to me all the time. Before I rode today my touring bike whispered to me that it may be a little wet on the MUP so I should use it since it has fenders. The other bikes always ask for new things, like new seats and more miles. |
It seems when people describe the 105 group they use phrases like "slick shifting" or "smooth" or "bullet proof". Less expensive groups get "good value" or "durable" phrases attached to them. I think you made a very wise choice. Did you know right away that this was the bike for you?

Very nice bike. Hope you, and it have many happy miles together.

I always describe 105 shifting as "tolerant" - I ask my bike to do some stupid stuff and it never refuses, no matter how dumb the request.

Congratulations on your new bike.
Nice bike! Enjoy |
That bike screams fast.

Nice:thumb:
I'd love to take that for a climbing ride! Have fun with it:) |
Ruby is a great looking and specd. bike. Did they fit it to you? That will make all the difference in the world.
