I buy all my high performance stuff at Ridleys they are awesome there. However, they carry all the tier 1 brands, and Trek and Giant Hybrids tend to be way to pricey for a bomb around bike.

Lifesport is more into the every day stuff, and deal the lesser known stuff, which I think is cool, as they don't have the "Panache" of Specialized Cannondale, Trek, Giant etc... when it comes to theft appeal. The Devinci Oslo SL I bought was 850 out the door (With a 10% discount), and the closest Trek was the 7.7 I think, which was $1400, and actually a little worse equipped. Absolutely love the thing, as it was one of the only Compact doubles I could find in a Hybrid. Everyone was trying to flog triples, which I only like in Mountain bikes.
