I'm shopping for a road/road-like bike (road "comfort" and cyclocross bikes are in consideration) in the $1,000 range, most likely to come from one of the the big companies like Cannondale, Specialized, Trek, Jamis, etc. (I have several nice locally owned and managed shops to choose from, so I'm covered there). I'd like to know - aside from the bike itself - who are the better companies - companies I can feel good about doing business with? Who behaves responsibly from a global, people, environmental, community, etc. perspective... Of the big makers, whom is the "least evil"? (While I'd consider smaller makers - I know *nothing* about that space and I need to be able to purchase/have it serviced in the Twin Cities, MN area...)
