Had my Shogun Metro LX stolen from the garage on Monday night and
hence looking for a new bike. I was happy with the Metro LX and can
get a new one for $999 at Melbourne Bike Centre - its attractive
because of the LX/XT componentry, albeit a little heavy. Does
anyone have any views on other options or places in Melbourne to buy
(including used)?

Having not looked at hybrids I don't know their RRP but $999 seems
pretty expensive, doesn't it?

No, not for that level of equipment. Deore LX is very nice. I have the
Deore version of that bike and I love it. All he need do is put some
clip-on aerobars on for a decent alternative riding position, as I did, and
he's got an excellent all-rounder.
