I saw the Trek FX 1 (2016 model) at Westwood Cycle for about $500; Kona Dew City (2016) at Jubilee at $500 (tax included); Norco Indie 4 (2016) at Bike Dr. for $550 and Raleigh Cadent 1 at Westside Sports for $500.
Most of the bikes are similar in price and they all seem similar spec wise. I'm was hoping for some input and recommendations.
I didn't really get a good vibe from the people at Westwood Cycles. I remember the staff being more professional before and they told me that they're getting rid of all other brands and becoming a Trek store only and the guy who was helping me didn't seem to give much of a shit.
Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated

Any one of those bikes you listed will be fine, just test ride them all and see what appeals and fits you. If it's budget you're concerned about, head to Pitt Meadows Cycle, they have a Giant Escape 2 for $399 in size M.
