There is a Fuji Absolute SX. I have one for commuting and I like it. For some reason it is not on Fuji's site. I don't think there is another comparable flat-bar roadie bike at this price point. (I got mine at a smokin' deal of $695.00.) It has a carbon fork and seat stays, which makes the ride pretty smooth. And it has 105 10 speed. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
