Need Advice For A New Bike

[gersh5]

Hi Cyclers,
Well, I am a triathlete and I need to buy a new bike. The question is, What bike to buy? I love cycling and triathlon. I don't want to buy two bikes. I have a good beginner cycling bike that I have been using but now want to upgrade.
Oh ya, I don't want to have to buy another new bike in a few years but don't want to spend more then necessary. I would like to gather as much information as possible. Anyone have an opinion or information?

I look forward to any opinions and recomendations.

PS - What do people think about Cannondale and Devinci road bikes?

I have a 2006 Trek 2200 and I love it. It is a monster on the hills. It has a stiff frame that makes it very efficient. It doesn't give you the smoothest ride but the OCLV seatstay takes the sting out of riding (you'll feel the bumps but they won't hurt) The seat and the pedals aren't very good so you might want to replace those if you get it. Any other questions then let me know
