Whichever fits best and has the best condition components is what I would go for.
Thanks, I'm gonna try and go check out the Mt. Tam this next week and see if it's as nice as the owner says. If it comes down to color, I do like the orange a bit better.
The standover on the Trek is 30.9" and the GF is 30.2" But, the effective top tube on the Trek is 23.4" whereas the GF is 24.7". Would those measurements, along with the GF's frame size being a 1/2" smaller, make a noticeable difference?
