Ride some bikes and tell us what you liked and didn't like. The Rangefinder does have a dropper which is nice. If I was going Spesh I would probably spend a touch more and go with the Chisel it is a really nice frame for aluminum. It looks really clean and is also a pretty light frame. The base model has 12 speed Deore and some other decent components and is only $100 more than the stated number. It is probably the bike you are looking for with what you have said but again test ride some bikes and tell us what you like and don't like about them.
