The Pashley looks like it has nicer components overall, but the Bramble is a bit lighter and might be geared a bit better for hills. I'll just have to see how they feel.

I looked at the Dawes Mixte but it seems that they don't make a frame small enough for me. Bobbin makes some small mixtes but I really want a bike with a chain guard. I don't want to bother with special cycling clothes these days.
How did it go? Those look like beautiful bikes!
