Hi everyone. I have been looking at the Dawes 2009 range to identify a decent middle of the road bike in the hybrid style to replace my Apollo CX which is heavy and not very nice to ride.
I notice they have a new heritage style bike called the Consulate which has steel frame and only 7 gears but looks quite simple and rugged:

Also in their discovery range the 201EQ has a nice blend of equipment

But I notice their 'trecking' range also has some very similar models to the 201 in particular the Mojave:

Which do you think is the better option? I'm not sure if the Discovery is better spec than the trecking model, and why Dawes market both?
