i think the weirdest thing about this thread is that it's assuming all other things are equal, which they aren't. the wheel sizes are still different, headset and shifter options are probably different.
simply put, it doesn't really matter because the wheels and many other parts are going to be so vastly different that it would be near impossible to build them up in such a way to compare equally.
all that said, i think what others have mentioned is the most important - these frames are built for different purposes... you should know if you've ridden different bikes before. they're just going to ride differently because of the geometry.
