The bike with the lower bb, (higher 'bb drop') is more of a "turn the handlebars" experience - it's more agile because of that.

The rake is similiar between the two (2mm difference) and the stems are about 15mm different so that is a likely contributor, but if I had to guess, the BB drop is mainly responsible for the different feels.
