Simply personal taste, but for me it's the Dick Mann frame.
There's not much more exotic than a Hagon SP, but I prefer a more traditional (boring) look and at least I have some chance of owning one some day.

Until you ride one Tony.....they're like riding a tin can, they resnonate every bump you hit, kinda like banging on a tin can. My Marin tinny mountain bike has the same weird effect.
I've had a few laps on Jonesy's Yamaha version and as cool looking and original as the Hagon VE is, I'd rather a C&J or Cheney....(or even a Hindall).
