My Girlfriend is just thinking about getting into the sport next year. I am looking for a bike for her so that she can get started training this winter on the trainer. She is around 5'6". Looking for something $500 and under, let me know what you got.

see my post about Specialized Dolce Elite in classified or womens forum. My wife is also 5'6'' and it fits perfect. I could go 650+post on it. MSRP's for 1300-1400.

You might be able to find a giant aluminum TCR with 105 level components for that price, size Small. My wife is 5'3 and that's what she has - it is just slightly on the large size for her. I have slapped on a 130mm stem and ridden it myself (I am just under 5'9) and it's small but rideable. We're not selling it, but you could scan Ebay and other lists for one like it.
I'll probably be selling my 52cm Kestrel talon SL soon, but it's about double the price you're looking for.
Good luck
Once you arrive at the race, deposit your excuses in the same location as last night's pasta.

I got a specialized allez 52cm with ultegra and 105 components on it. I sent a pm a while ago. Let me know if you are interested. I could let it go for $500+shipping
