    faster? no. faster is only how hard you pedal. i haven't researched, but i doubt the weight difference of these two bikes is different.

    langster looks good. the mercer is a little classic looking as far as frame geometry and tube size. are they both steel?

    if it was me, i'd take the langster.

    • faster meaning more aggressive geometryacescence

    • Faster is not how hard you pedal. Geometry, and gear ratio play a large role. Mercier has aggresive geometry = Faster if equal weight.jacklalane
    • If both equal weight.jacklalane
    • please, there's barely a difference in aggressiveness between the two...

    • if u want the aggressiveness, flip the stem and raise the seatpost, which you can do with any road bike.

    • Gear ratio > of course, but who keeps the stock gearing they get on a bike?
