Thoughts? Thinking of a bike for use on the street rather than the track, though I would like something with fairly snappy handling.

Thanks for your input.
It'll make somewhat of a difference, but both bikes will be plenty agile. Best case scenario as always is to test ride the bikes first, bu if not there's really no way of knowing which you would prefer. In that case, I'd just flip a coin.
