I have no idea what the differences would be. I just clicked your link out of curiosity and saw it was in Oakland. Santa Cruz is "almost local."
In my case, the build far exceeded anything I could possibly have hoped for. I just passed the five year mark for getting mine, and can honestly say it was probably the best purchase I ever made (well maybe apart from various dogs over the years).
https://caletticycles.com/bikes/ if you want to have a look. The main disadvantage is the wait list. Since I was recovering from a broken ankle at the time, it wasn't as off-putting (and gave me a recovery goal).
