  1. About to buy one of the two. The Giant is about $200 cheaper. Aside from that, can anyone suggest
    why I should buy one over the other?

    Also, is it THAT hard to put racks on a bike with disc brakes?

    cheekymonkey.com.aubits.htm scroll down to link for Old Man Mountain

    tubus.netswing uk.htm for their suspension front rack. The Cargo rear rack may also be
    able to be modified to fit to/around a disc mount (voiding all warranties) as it is tubular steel.
    Verrry strong and available from St Kilda Cycles in Melbourne.

    Cheers Peter

  3. The Giant frame is one of the lightest around.
