I looked at the Jamis Coda Comp, Kona Dew Dlx, Trek 7500 FX and the Giant FCR 2. The Trek was heavier than I wanted and the Dew Dlx was on back order. it came down to FCR vs the Comp. I went with the Comp because it felt more resilient. I would say try as many bikes as you can and go by feel, not just specs.
