Can your seasoned eyes tell me which is good/better/value for money.
Shall keep this thread to add more as I find.

The Orange is highest regarded around here right?
What about the Raleigh? I would tend to that one at the moment as cheaper if not much in either and looks crisp. Is XL too big for 5' 10" though? A bit too big is ok if you like riding hills iirc?
Reading up more on the forum these Raleighs are highly regarded it seems?
Marin seems pricey for a knocked about looking bike with none original fork.
