Are they both the same size?  18" or 20"?

I prefer the look of the FIT but i'd go with whatever one is 18" over a 20"  :daumenhoch:

Go with the Fit as it has a top load stem. He may find it too long with a front loader. Saves on buying another stem.

The Fit also looks the better condition wise  :daumenhoch:

Fit all day long on looks but I would do some research on the particular models and find out which has a full chromo frame (if any ) or the lightest and better specced  as said before... :daumenhoch:

Fit bike co has way more street cred than wethepeople, plus it's newer and it's very important to have a top load stem nowadays according to junior plus scene points for integrated seatclamp.
