Assuming you have homebrew and rbenv already installed, run the following:
brew update
brew upgrade ruby-build
rbenv install 2.1.1This will update brew, upgrade ruby-build and install ruby 2.1.1 in 3 easy steps.

For some reason "brew upgrade ruby-build" did not update rbenv list.
<br />The trick I found was to manually pull update:
<br />cd ~/.rbenv
<br />git pull
<br />cd plugins/ruby-build
<br />git pull
