Well scott are good bikes so i recommend that you buy that one, but
the kestrel i have never heard of so do some further research before
you decide to buy it.

Kestrel has been around building quality carbon frames for many years. The
Scott CR1 is an awesome frame, but may cross the line into the "stupid
light" category. I've seen it. I have a friend who is riding one now. He
loves it. But I wonder how well it's going to hold up. The tubes are
absolutely whisper thin and word is they can easily be destroyed by mistake
in a shop stand. I'm not sure I'd want to entrust my welfare to a frame
that's quite so fragile.

Do plenty of homework.
