Are the specs of these two close or is there something significant I'm not realising?

If you've an alternative at a similar price point, would be great to hear about it - feel free to suggest.

The callibre looks the better buy a bit more modern and lighter, although only in larger sizes

The Sonoran is only in sml/XS

I didn't even check the weights - looks like I'm holding off for the next shipment of Calibres unless another alternative comes up.

Callibres look decent bikes for the price and great value

Yes, had my eye on them for a while after another Ph'er mentioned them - thanks for the recommendation, helps to narrow things down. Lets see what Go Outdoors say about the next delivery of smaller frame sizes.

i was about to recommend the Calibe Stitch to someone the other day as it was bang on in terms of spec and price, until i realised that there were no mounts for racks or mudguards at all. Seems madness for an essentially urban bike........
