The Fuji and Sherpa come with life-time tuning (including wheel truing) at Cycle Power, the LHT will be purchased from one of the best shops in Ottawa (Phat Moose) as far as costumer satisfaction goes, and I expect nothing less than the best from MEC's costumer service and product support.
Hold off deciding until you can test ride. The LHT is a stellar package for big loads and rear loads but it's not what I'd want for fast unloaded riding. The steering feels slow. With fenders the toe overlap with the front wheel was irritating.
