Bikes: 2000 Trek 7200, 2013 Fuji Absolute 1.3

Well I test rode a bunch of bikes tonight. Could not find any of the exact models I want. I did find out that Endurance geometry bikes felt ok but drop bars of any kind are definitely out. Tempted on closeout pricing of a Raleigh Carbon 3 but unfortunately shifters and brake levers for a flat bar that work with the Ultegra are impossible to find so that one is out. I cannot find a Cannondale Bad Boy 5 anywhere in Phoenix. The Specialized Sirrus in the base model feels and rides nearly identical to my Trek 7200. I may have to modify search parameters to find a flat bar endurance bike if such a thing exists. Looks like this is going to be quite the ordeal.
