Thank you so much!
That will surely help me make my decision. I really like the Lexa for it's compact and women specific components and, in my mind it's already my future bike, but not being able to see one and try it before buying is terrible.
I wish people on bike stores here were so helpful they didn't even bother comparing the geometry of the Lexa with the 1.2 I tried and other shops I called don't have small sizes and insisted that my size should be a 52.
