    So I've narrowed it down to a either a Boardman Hybrid Team or the Ridgeback Element.

    I've had the boardman so know what to expect but does anyone here have an Element or even a ridgeback? Opinions?

    Links for those interested.

    Have you looked at this, don't know much about Eastway, but Tiagra and Hydraulic disc brakes for €500 is a lot of bang for buck.

    I didn't see them but they don't have my size anyway. Thanks though.

    Looks to me like the boardman is superior to the ridgeback.

    Is the ridgeback hydraullic or cable disc brakes? Edit: Google tells me it is hydraullic.

    Ridgeback is about 20% heavier.
