I love love that red Trek 1420, beautiful! That Raleigh pro is nice, too, but I'm not a big fan of raleigh bikes in general. The raleigh looks like its much bigger than the other 2, though, do they all fit properly?

Yeah, actually they are both similar in size. The Trek is 58cm C-C and the Raleigh is 60cm C-C. The oversized tubes on the Trek make it look a bit smaller and I have read that the Raleigh Professionals have a geometry that leads to a long head tube. I'm not sure what that really meant but I took it at face value. Both have been very comfortable on 50+ mile rides.

I think the angle of the picture above makes it look a bit taller too. Here is a picture from the side:
The Trek gets 90% of my miles for a number of reasons. The indexed shifting, computer, rack and weenie gears make it nice for long trips
