thoreauAfter nearly a full 12 hours (till blindness and fatique was setting in last night, and then again at 615am this morning, not that I'm obsessive or anything) of nonstop bike review websites, sifting through recommends from fellow ALCers, I have three finalists in my head - although... sitting and riding each of them is the real telling point.
1. The Trek 1.5 - http://www.trekbikes.com/uk/en/bikes/road/1_series/15/ - the Trek 1.5 reviews VERY well - and is very much like the bike I had in Boise and Seattle but sold when I moved to SF.
2. Specialized Roulux - http://mikesbikes.com/product/10-specialized-roulux-1-58843-1.htm
3. "Surly Long Haul Trucker" which is slightly more expensive than the other models - but also comes highly reviewed. http://surlybikes.com/bikes/long_haul_trucker_complete/
