Guys, I'm really sorry, you must hate people like me!
I'm torn between the two bikes below (please don't judge me, I know there's better bikes but I love the look of these two
)
Is one particularly better than the other? I can see the Rockhopper has Air forks as opposed to a Spring but I've no idea how the frame, wheels etc compare.
The bike would be mainly for commuting and singletrack stuff, nothing too demanding.
Thanks so much in advance guys

Much of a muchness apart from the fork where the Spesh claims and air fork and the Bianchi does not (so presumably has an inferior coil fork).
Better spec' cheaper price
