One thing to remember is that the Giant will come ready set up with tubeless tyres. If you want to go tubeless with any of the others, you will have to convert them. Incidentally the "Tredz" price shown for that is wrong - it links to the non-disc escape 3, rather than the disc braked escape 0.

Beware propriatory rack and mudguard fittings. Use threaded eyelets. Avoid Plug&Play etc

Still, better to have and not need...

Out of those options I would go for the Boardman personally. Great bikes for the money (if you intend to spend that much).
