Wink Help Me Choose!!

As the title says - help me choose between two 29er bikes!

I cannot decide between the Gary Fisher X-Caliber, and the Cannondale 29er 2.

I can get them both for the same amount of coin, so price is not the issue - I want to try and make the best choice.

Any opinions appreciated.


Cheers,

Dave.

If the choice is only between those two, then I would pick the Gary Fisher ...

Gary Fisher has been involved with 29ers a lot longer than Cannondale has ... that isn't to suggest that the Cannondale isn't a good bike.

REGARDLESS, I would be most inclined toward the RALEIGH XXIX+G because my preference would be for the CroMo frame AND it is less expensive.

So why not list the specs of each bike, instead of making me research and look them up for you? Why have you narrowed it down to only those two bikes? Tell us about the typical riding terrain you expect to encounter.
