I have sat on each of these bikes, they all feel comfortable (upgrading from entry level Boardman). I don't have an opportunity to demo the bikes on a longer test ride. I really can't decide between them.

I'm leaning towards the Giant DA1 but both other bikes are very appealing. Please help. Purchase next week.

    Only buy a Roubaix if you have a bad back, or like spending time admiring the view from your very upright position. I guess those 3 are all "endurance" geometry, but did find the Specialized very high at the front.
