I rode a Specialized Sirrus and a Raleigh Cadent FT1 today and liked them both better than the Trek FX! I should be able to ride the Vita this week, but it's looking like the "mens" model is going to work well for me.
I'm leaning toward the Raleigh, but liked both bikes a lot...
Anyone know anything about the components? From what I can tell, the Raleigh has upgraded tires and rear derailer. It's only about $40 more, so I'm thinking it would be worth it. The seat seemed more comfortable to me too.
Does anyone have any Raleigh experience?

Just so you know...
I ended up getting a Specialized Vita Sport. The white/red/black one. I absolutely love it!

Congrats on the new bike! I've got a couple of Specialized bikes and love em both. Had ridden a rented Sirrius ( the non-WSD twin of your bike) when in California this year and really liked it too. Have a great time riding!
