Default Flat Bar Road Bike - Giant? Trek? Specialized?

Hi There,

I am looking at buying a flat bar Road bike (and a matching one for my wife).

I have been looking at the Giant FCR2, Specialized Globe Comp IG8 and the Trek 7.5fx.

To me they all look very similar and the price point is very similar.

Does anyone got any benefits or negatives for going one way or the other?

I just don't know how to decide between the 3.

Any thoughts or opinions are most welcome.

Also, Can anyone recommend any good online Bike retailers in the US or a good Bike shop in the San Jose, CA area that carry any of these lines.

Thanks

Nick

They are all good value, add the Felt SR81 to the must see list.
