2011 Diamondback Wildwood
Pros and/or cons on this bike as a "starter" for mid-60's man and woman?

Wife was fitted and rode a small frame yesterday afternoon. She loved it. I rode it as well, but needed a medium frame. I thought that it rode and handled fine, shifting was clean, etc.
Back to LBS to ride it in a few minutes.
I am a no expert newbie, so not sure what I should be looking for other than the mechanics, ride, handling, etc. If the Medium fits me better and handles the same, I think we'll pull the trigger (unless I hear something terrible about the brand/model here).
