On balance, I'd test ride the Raleigh and get the one the size that fits. I still use my Rush Hour for winter training. The Kilo went back when I couldn't make the geo work for me.
The tt does not have guides or bosses as far as I can tell, it has no brakes. The rush hour has front and rear brakes standard
