Boy, you're really determined to not actually a learn a damn thing, aren't you?

I'll make one more try: Get. The. Bike. That. Fits. You. Best.

Do not concern yourself with "handling." Erase all thoughts of "handling" from your mind. You have no way to make an informed decision based on "handling." A bike that "handles" a bit slower but fits you will actually handle MUCH better than a bike with "quicker handling" that doesn't fit you right. Bike handling in cyclocross is about the match between the rider and the bike.
