Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

First Carbon Bike. Pedal Force RS? 5'6 Rider. Have Fuji Roubiax RC

I'm looking to upgrade and maybe get a bike that fits slightly better.

I have a 2008 Fuji Roubiax RC with full ultegra setup. I bought it used. I was finally fitted after riding for a bit and not being able to comfortably get to the drops. A 90mm stem was put on. The guy said being 5'6 I could probably go with a 50cm in todays bikes.

That said....I'm looking for a newer road bike full carbon.

Came across a Pedal Force RS with Dura Ace and Ultegra components. Crank is carbon FSA compact. Seller asking $1,300. It's a 50cm. Can't find top tube dimensions on this frame so see if the top tube will work with me. I have a 29-30" inseam, longer legs and shorter torso.

Also eyeing a 50cm 2010 Felt F4 full ultegra with standard dura crank. Seller asking $1500

Compared to my Fuji, would this be an upgrade?
