    I'd recommend you decide on whether you want a drop bar road bike or a hybrid before asking for recommendations between those two models, as you're not really comparing like with like, IMHO. The Scott is a hybrid, while the Cube has drop bars, so the ride between both will be different, and while I'd be thinking a drop bar bike for the distances you mention, some people just don't want to consider them.

    Cube €849

    http://shop.pennyfarthingcycles.com/product-p/c-a-p.htm

    Scott 879.99

    http://shop.pennyfarthingcycles.com/product-p/scott-sp-40.htm

    Had the Scott and was stolen last week, so was in the shop and the guy was saying the Cube is a better bike, but not sure if he was just saying that as he had the Cube in stock and would have to order the Scott.

    I liked the Scott, just need to know if there is much diff between them at this price

    In my opinion the advice you've been given from the shop is spot on.Cube components all Sora but the Scott scrimps using own brand breaks.

    I noticed on chainreaction cycles the 2015 Cube Peloton is now on clearance for €638.99 all the same components as the attain.Got to be worth a look if your after a bargain.
