Well they are similar in the sense that they have more bling than function, in terms of what you are paying for. Not that I'm knocking that. I just like a different kind of bling I guess. Of that bunch, I like the white lugged cross bike the best. The city bike is pretty cool too, but one of things I dislike about the Vanilla stuff is that his paint jobs look like they were done with super sweet and rich melted ice cream. It makes me feel kind of queasy.
