BEST 2011 BD SS CYCLOCROSS BIKE: Motobecane Fantom Uno or Mercier Kilo WT

If you hate BD or are generally easily irratible, please don't bother responding.

I have done searches and cannot find a direct comparison between these two models currently available.

I am currently in the market for a good (relatively) singlespeed CX bicycle.

I am relatively new to cycling and appreciate other suggestions (including geared bicycles).

That said -
What is the better bike? Which includes better components for the price?

Are these going to work well for me? (hard riding/not for winning CX races)

I'm 6' with a 32" inseam and believe I'd be a 56cm or 58cm.

Thanks for your help!
