My sister and her husband are looking. I've lead them to the Jamis Ventura Race at Sportchek in men and womens. I think they are pretty hard to beat for less then $1000 with the Team Assist coupons. Everything else in that price range seems to be Sora/Tiagra components. They can't really afford anything more then $1000 each. They would love sometyhing where you could attach panier bags on the rear, which with the Ventura Race you cant with the Carbon stays.
Are they set on carbon? Lots of nice aluminum (& steel!) bikes out there. If they want pannier racks, maybe you should steer them towards touring bikes. Very smooth rides, a bit wider tires, and all the fender/rack attachments you could want.
