101 days to shop for a new road mountain or sports bike :: Cross the border to buy a bike???

Ever since I moved to Canada the Canadian Dollar (CAD) has gone up like crazy. A lot of Canadians I heard are now crossing the border to shop in the USA.

It's about 1.1 Canadian to 1 US Dollar (USD).or 0.9 the other way around.

So looking at buying a bike in the USA looks interesting / cheaper. I was browsing some websites and comparing prices. A Trek Pilot 1.0 would cost in Canada Approx CAD $950 and in the US approx. USD $700.

Anyone experience doing this? Advice?
