Give it a try on the MTB or see if you can borrow a friends and do a test run. Be sure and scope out a safe route. The direct route is not always the safest.

Try the local Fire Alarm dealer. When they test the batteries for there systems if they don't pass they have to replace both of them. So you can get good batteries for free. W00T

I second that.. That last bike looks good... But you really NEED to go for a test ride first. Tri bikes tend to have fast/twitchy/sensitive steering - by design of course... If you're not used to it - and will be using it as a commuter - you might not like it. That's just personal preference -- I like riding slow turning bikes myself

Oh man, that trek looks awesome... That price is pretty good if it's really Shimano 105's
