I am looking to build up a bike to commute the short distance to and from work. I was looking a salvaging one of two frames for the job - a Apollo Taledo or Speedwell Streak. The Apollo appears to be late 80's, in relatively good condition. Not sure on age of the Speedwell, it has no real rust issues but will probably need to be repainted.
I am interested in thoughts as to which is the better option for a beginners commute project? I have come home with the Speedwell, but it cost next to nothing so would be happy to go back and grab he Apollo if it was the better bike.
