Thanks for the information. I'm looking for a bike that can be used for light touring, long rides, commuting, and other non-racing rides. The touring I do is inn-to-inn (no camping), but I do use a set of rear panniers. I'd like a bike that is lightweight and responsive enough to use without the rack and panniers for club rides, yet strong enough to take on a 10 day trip. I need a bike that fits perfectly.

I think I'll visit Spectrum Cysles and Bilenky.
