Bought Ruby March 2014 and since then have clocked almost 3000kms! I like everything about it, lightweight, the gears are so smooth to change, is comfortable on those long rides. It great for big hill climbs and is very responsive. I took a tumble one day just after I bought the bike; me and a set of train tracks did not get along! There was no damage to Ruby, so she is durable however, I needed physio on my knee! It was a great investment and can't wipe the smile off my face when I go for a ride! I like the fact that the bike is designed by women for women.

My husband and I have become new bicycle riders. I purchased the Ruby and he the Roubaix on August third this year. We have over 600 miles on them now in September and have learned a lot from pro local riders. I am so glad the salesman said spend the money now, don't waste your money on lesser bikes working your way up to this quality. I am glad we listened. Flawless performance and dependability. Thank you.
