Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I own the Scott S40 and love it, so without a doubt I would recommend Scott. On top of that the spec sheet has the Scott S30 with Shimano 105 all around whereas the Trek only has a 105 rear Derailleur, then Tiagra shifters and front derailleur. So in my opinion the Scott seems to be a better buy. In the end it all depends on which one rides better to you.

Pilots are plush, Speedsters are crit-ish frames.

I have a S10 I built up and I love it.....the Trek is nice as well...it really depends on which feels better for you...I would think the Trek might be a bit more relaxed and the Scott a bit more aggressive

Obviously, the Trek, since it has less spokes.

I didn't check the specs but going purely on cosmetic appeal, definitely Scott.
