All around the same price.
It looks like all have very similar components, with the notable exception of the Misceo which has disc brakes. To me, the decision would be easy to choose the Misceo as I love disc brakes. My guess is a large percentage of others would immediately eliminate the Misceo from consideration for that reason. The rest of the components look very similar on all the bikes. Unless it was a lot less comfortable or they didn't have my size, I take the Misceo. Obviously the best advice is to take the one that feels best to you after a thorough test drive. Good luck!

Yes I've seem to like the Misceo for what it has to offer, but is 38c tires kind of big and wide?Originally Posted by naehring
Lol, here I go again. I'd take the Quick 5, as I really like the Quick lineup. Cannondale makes a nice frame for the money. I find the geometry of the Quicks to suit me well. You may be more comfortable on something else.
Fwiw, I don't especially like the 7.2FX - I'd be looking to go higher up in that line. I'm also not a Raleigh fan. I do like Specialized, though. But I'd be trying all of them if I were you. And more.
i like the specialized the best
I'd take the Raleigh. It has slightly better components and DISC BRAKES!

I prefer the 48/36/26 gearing on that one and the chainguard. Also, more simple to work on V-brakes, Alivio rear derailleur, cool-looking frame.
With an aluminium fork, maybe cro-mo handlebars would help and changing to larger tires. I'd prefer tires from 37mm to 42mm.
