Considering factors like weight, pedalling efficiency, parts availability, ease of repair, durability etc. There are other colours available. Not looking for a premium/good bike (already have a high end bike), cheap (under AU$400 or US$260) and non-thief magnet is the priority.

Don’t forget the shorter wheelbase may see your heels striking large pannier bags with each pedal rotation – if you use a rear rack.
Neither bicycle has braze-ons / eyelets for a rear nor front rack. How will you carry stuff on your long ride?
