what kinda bike?
 

I am seeking a bike for general commuting. 8-80 mile roundtrip at the max. Somewhat hilly... The three bikes i've looked at are the Fuji Farzo Absolute(purty), the Fuji League, or well... I dunno. I'm open to suggestions but I would appreciate if you could post which one of the poll ones you would choose. Granted i'm poor and I can only afford one thats about $550 at the max. Thanks for the help. Mostly casual riding but i'll use it to ride into Wayzata and travel around the Twin Cities. The keyword is hills, and I would like something that will be a comfortable ride for reasonable distances, but possibly something thats kind of quick too. Maybe i'm asking too much.

Devster, What did you finally do? In your situation I would have gone for a used bike.

Devster, I was in a similar situation, I bought a used bianchi volpe with upgraded wheels for 400 bucks. I put a rack and fenders on it, and ride 5000 miles a year on the daily commute. Its an awesome commuter bike. I think the volpe is around 800 bucks new.
