Yeah, I'm on that train of thought as well at the moment. When I go to the shop I'll also get to feel how the bikes fit, the Maze goes up to 60 cm, Fuji has a 61 and the Creme only goes to 59 which would be rather small for me. Being 6'3''and 190 pounds, I'm probably best of with a large and sturdy bike
I'll also ask the shopkeeper if he would be willing to swap some parts out on the Maze. I know they have the wheels in red and black as well, I'd want different handlebars anyway... might be able to make it more to my taste that way
