I'm beginning commuting on the cheap (started on an old MTB lying in the garage) and am going to buy something with a bit more quality second hand.

2 I have been offered is a Ridgeway gents tourer (couple of years old, rarely used) and a Scott MTB (a few years old, recently had new tyres/tubes/brake lines).

Thats as much as I know at this time.

Both are around the same price, what would you go with?

    I'd veer away from a MTB (too heavy, probably suspension) for commuting, so Ridgeway it is.

    I'm hungry. I'm always hungry!

    Decision made (ridgeway), got it today, ready to go in the morning.

    Thanks for that.
