This bike is really interesting. If I had not just bought a Cervelo R2, I would so be wanting this one. I know they are different bikes but the Mrs. keeps me in check, Otherwise I would have a herd of bikes.

The most notable thing I see about it, besides the handlebars, is the front is really raked out. 50mm offset and 71 deg HT angle

Is -25% only for in-stock store-only item?
I was really interested in the wheel barrow bike as a seriously tough commuter...but they didn't have it in my size...would have to special order it.
Not sure how bad the aerodynamic/handling would be if the front basket is loaded with work cloths and stuff.

Don't wanna hijack the thread, but this one from Amazon is a good deal too.

Just $14.

went to REI myself yesterday. there was a discount rack over by the cycling section but didn't see anything for me. lots of choices for Wifey, she says she might actually like some cycling shorts.
of course, this isn't the season for cycling discounts on their best stuff

Well I guess you didn't shop the clearance items! Look at this sweet deal I found today:

I saw the same price markdown yesterday because i swapped one size out for another on the jacket.
I commented that it was probably more work than benefit to print out and relabel tages for 10cents off
