Not seen the Jamis Elite for real yet but I do like that bike and the wheels are really good so I've read too. Looking at the Genisis Vapour Ultegra also but I would like 35cc without mud guards if poss?
I will have a trip to Evans in about 4 weeks time when my hip has improved a bit more..
I've looked at the GT not keen on a 52/36 set up for the offroad bits though it has some very good wheels ( mavic allroads ) and is more road focused like the Datum as you said. The Norco is a good shout too.. not much to choose between them really.
I don't know if you should buy a bike buy the colour but the Datum 30 and the Specialized Diverge Elite are spot on the Jamis, GT, and the Norco don't do it for me not colour wise?
You should definitely buy the colour. You see the bike when you ride it, clean it and look at it. If you don't like the colour don't buy it as you will never love it.
I am not a big fan of Specialized but I confess their bikes are well painted and have great visual and showroom appeal.
