There are things that I really like about my Fuji and things that I cannot stand. I hate the fact that the bike does not have the ability to attach either conventional fenders or racks. I have a rack, but it is attached via a longer skewer that makes everything with the rear wheel that much more complicated. I am not a huge fan of the cabling that runs across the top tube - no real reason, I just don't like it. I consistently run into issues where I am unable to shift from the big ring to the small ring for no apparent reason.

I have had the bike tuned up twice this year - once at the start of the year and once in June, a couple of weeks before the start of my tour, and after a couple of weeks of trouble free riding, the problem comes back.

I am in a position to buy a new bike so I am going to do so. I am interested in gathering some opinions of the wider cycling community. I really appreciate all of the suggestions; I hope to narrow my choices and then ride that limited number rather than trying to ride everything.

I have thought about a lot of the other bikes that have been mentioned, but I am leary of the bar end shifters. I really like having everything accessible from the hoods which essentially rules out the Trek 920 and the LHT/Disc Trucker. I do appreciate the thought that everyone is putting into their responses here.
