I really feel stupid! I guess I should have started here first. I completed the deal at my local bike shop, they put the bike on a rack told me it was a great bike at a great price, verified that they sold the bike new in December, but never suggested it was too small for me.

I never thought buying a bike could be so technical!

I was looking for a road bike at $1,000 price point. I only ride on pave bike paths, riding for fitness, Is the specialized too much of a race bike for my needs?

Beautiful bike Jerry!
