Bikes: A loaner for now

I must have typed something wrong, when I said I'd be switching out parts, I didn't mean immediately, I meant in the future. And the only bikes readily available right now are:

Bianchi Pista (flashy, needs brakes, road drops, SS cog) - 550
KHS Flite 100 (only have 06 model, needs brakes, SS cog) - 550
Raleigh One Way (looks good, weighs 25 lbs, forgot the price, opinions?)
Anddd the Mongoose Sabrosa 1x1 (really really heavy) - 500

Well I woke up this morning set on the Cayne. Now I'm thinking back to that Raleigh I saw in the same shop. My first impression of it wasn't so great because the bike I rode before the Marin I have now was a Raleigh Rincon MTB and I hated it with a passion. The guy at the shop even told me Raleigh used to be great about 30 years ago and has recently been trying to make a come back. The fenders also put me off and the fact that the guy made it sound like dozens of people had test rode it. It does look pretty sweet though, I'd just tear off the stickers and call it a day.
