Make sure it fits properly (you should be able to stand with both feet on the ground and have about an inch of clearance with your crotch), and when you're in the saddle with your hands on the drop-down part of the handlebars, look down and the middle of the handlebar should block your view of the front wheel's hub.
And don't pay more than you want to. That's why Trek makes 5,000 different models. Giant has fewer options, as does Cannondale.
