Having said all that, there is a definite difference in style between the two bikes which will translate into comfort for you. This difference is rider dependent so I'd go with the one you find easier and more comfortable to ride.

On a purely personal - non-technical - level, the GUSTN looks like the more expensive bike while the Gotham may be the better value.
