Edit: Consider the type of riding you are looking to do as well. The OCR has a much more relaxed, "comfortable" geometry. Just make sure you choose a bike that is fit for your riding goals.
I've noticed quite a few deals, but just can't find any LBS with much over 60cm. Once they have to put in an order for anything, I notice I get charged MSRP plus Tax... killer on the wallet compared to some of the deals I see being announced on this site.
Also as far as the geometry goes so there's Relaxed, Compact, and Standard. Are the differences very noticable?
