I do like the purple straggler... but price between the two seems the same tbh - both available for £420-£440 ish.
Any other reason to go with the straggler? Kepler seems about 100g lighter but that's nothing at these weights tbh.
4130 frames are nothing special, hence why pay more? Chose one that you like, there might be few things here and there but nothing is going to be drastically different. Spend money where it counts, make wheels lighter and get better tyres.
Taking inspiration from this (other than those spacers...)
