Done. Thanks for adding the 5'5" and under and never ridden 700c category. It would be interesting to know age ranges for those of us in this short category who have never ridden 700, and those who have always ridden 700. My theory is that older riders are the former, and younger riders are the later.
I think you are right. I am 5'4" and have been riding for about 7 years (so a newer, but older rider), and I have never ridden a road or tri bike with anything other than 700c. Anything else isn't even an option at the bike shops around here unless you want to special order them, then you would also have the issue of replacement tubes and tires. I think more experienced riders might like the smaller wheels, but there is a significant barrier to entry with those wheels for newer riders.
