    both great bikes, would lean toward the ridgeback myself, spec seems slightly better overall for the money. also nicer colour!
    Can't go wrong with either one though

    bought the ridgeback today and am really happy with it. it feels so
    fast and responsive in comparison to my old knackerd gaint boulder mountain bike.

    How much are these bikes in Dublin as a matter of interest? Is it better to buy online and get them shipped in buy them here in Rip Off Ireland?

    they are both E600 in dublin and around £399 on the net which is E588 you might find one a bit cheaper but i think its worth buying it in dublin for the cover the shop gives you. i called to the shop were i got mine on the 2nd day as the gears wearnt 100% and they fixed it up for me in a minute .also they gave a reduction on the computer and lock .you might even get a reduction on the bikes now as the 2006 models of both bikes are out and they might want to get rid of the 05 models

    Where's the shop you buy from?

    I've only started commuting by bike since last Feb, first on my brother's old mountain bike, wrecked that, then I went to Penny Farthing on Camden St, picked up a cheap option for 150, said to myself if I stick it for a year I'll invest in something decent.

    While I was there I had my eye on one of these, but they're 800, wow they look cool, any opinions on them:
