First time buying a road bike, which one? CAAD 8 Tiagra? Size?

Go see what Ashcycles have in the way of deals on Giants?

At 5'9ish, you'll likely want a medium (possibly with a shorter stem), 54cm

I just bought the CAAD8, it's awesome. I liked it as soon as I test rode it. Thanks for all the help.

You do know the instant a bike is right.
