Daniel XTR Posted December 13, 2010 Share Dont know anything about either bike. But the Scott is probabaly lighter. I dunno. Thats my useless post for the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catatonic_Joe Posted December 13, 2010 Share I think the Scott too, got full deore components, whereas the Giant has Alivio. ALso depends on which frame fits you better i suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTB_Roadie Posted December 13, 2010 Share Scott got better parts for what you pay, so its technically a bargain you getting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
