If it was me, I'd opt for the Fuji (either one) as Fuji does make nice bikes.... I'n not a big fan of twist shifters, so I'd take the extra cash and buy other shifters and Ergon grips. The Fujis already have a big 34 tooth sprocket on the back, if you have to go up any really steep inclines. Do you ever use yours? I do! My Granddaughter has a women's specific Absolute, and its really a nice bike. Lite too!

If you are fine with the grip shifters, save the money and buy the Fuji.

That being said, the Diamondback is also a nice bike.....

Which one did you fall in love with? They are all very similar in materials, components (except shifters, lol) and value. (They are all nice bikes, and it is less likely that the women's frame would be stolen.)

The one you fall in love with....... That's the one you want.

Don't forget to sign up for their membership BEFORE you buy, so you get free money to spend after the sale.
