couple of questions:
1. where is that shop? looks awesome.
2. how did you decide between the Z70 and F75?

 I can't speak for the OP, but the only real difference is the frame geometry.  The Z series is a bit more relaxed frame, so it will be more comfortable for certain riders.   You really just need to ride both and see what you like.
