So I am not sure on 2 touring bicycles. I have looked around google for a comparison but cant find anything.

So there are 2 somas in my area for sale. A saga and grand randonneur. Both are used and about the same price and comparable components.

I will be using it to commute to work about 20 mins each way. And on the weekends I would like to go touring. Looking to do 150-200 miles. It wont be credit card touring. I will be packing about 25 lbs, in rear panniers.

What would you go with? Am I really choosing base on color now?

Thanks for the input.
