Those 2 are the EXACT same thing. Besides some minor adjudments in frame geometry. Between those two basically just choose a color.

well eddie cleaveland is a street rider and justin inman is a trails rider so the frames dimensions are more likely built around what they ride so if your looking to ride street the cleaveland might feel a little better (i didnt look at the bikes spec's), but completes arent very strong, the frame might if its the actual signature frame and not just a signature bike with a sig sticker slapped on it,but the other stuff probably isnt to strong since its just the 300 dollar one, but it should be good for you since your just starting
you could wait for Cult's completes to come out

idk when they will though, might be soon, might not be for a while

you should see how much it would cost to just build a bike, it will last longer,probably be cheaper in the long run, and you will probably be much happier with it..check if the wheels have sealed bearings and a cassette rear hub also

personally i would go with the inman cause i like him more then eddie
i like style over tricks and inman has some sick style
justin inman


eddie cleaveland


but like riedy said those two completes are pretty much the same,i think both of they're signature frames are like 300 so i dont think those are the actual signature frames
if you could try to get the aitken

my bike is 1k+ ..what you spend is what you get...if you buy a walmart bike you'll break it pretty soon..if you buy a quality bike it will last longer if you take care of it (dont leave it in the sun, dont hose it off if its dirty, dont ignore dings pops and other noises,etc. haha)
