IMO fit is first.

While I agree, fit can be 'finagled' via frame size and seat/stem adjustment. Meanwhile gearing is forever.... (at least until ya upgrade! ;-)

Check out Felt Bicylcles. I just picked up a 2004 F80, which has the same components as the 2003 F75 http://www.feltracing.com/F75.html

It is a mix of 105 and Tiagra (Tiagra Shifters and 105 Deraillers. It is alot of fun to ride for an excellent price. At least 20% cheaper than better known brands.
