Scott Speedster better fit and finish
Giant is not VFM

Java bikes are good but heavy

Giant. Because it is the best option which is available
Java is too aggressive

Scott light frame components and it’s also that Scott is very durable

Better service in India. My rule is to buy bikes from stores who owners ride bikes themselves

The build quality. And the service provided by the company. Java bikes are good yes but they are very heavy. Personal experience π’

Java Veloce
In my view
Cheap and best to buy and maintenance
Even if u do any mistakes in maintaining or riding style
Can learn everything with low cost…

Never ever go for java.. Giant would be my first choice followed by Scott

I owned Java Veloce, it was not comfortable for me. Too much committed posture. Claris groupset is not smooth. But build quality is good. Slightly heavier for a road bike. Ended up selling in 3 months. Now I have Scott Hybrid and Iβm so much happy. Also consider Convolution bikes and Scolarian bikes for custom geometry. You can have same geometry as your hybrid:)

Giant or the Scott. Might be partial to the Scott. I liked its frame when i rode it.

Giant scr2. It’s wheels n it’s endurance geometry. Java is not that reliable. If anyone is having 1st road bike then endurance would be preferred unless he/she wants race.

Java Siluro 2/ Giant. Giant because of its structure and geometry. And S2 for being aero and lightweight. Triban π.

Scott. Have heard good reviews. Brand support is awesome. Components wise also it’s really good!
