I've owned both and can't say there's a definitive "one is better" answer for you. The Appa may theoretically be stiffer on a trail but that's not necessarily a benefit on a non-suspended bike. It's probably a little lighter than Clem, and it's a more expensive full-lugs frame so there's that. But that LimeOlive L is gorgeous sooooo either/or! 🤷
