doh on the dolce! I was actually going to recommend a higher end Al Diverge, but they have none in 2017, so saw the Dolce and just looked at the components. LOL. But really what makes it woman specific - the saddle? The stack?
The grade was my second choice. Ridley may be nice but their geometry never suited my body - they have a higher standover height for the same effective top tube than others.
