Which bike is worth the price - hybrid bikes?

I will mostly be cycling on the roads, but road bikes seem to be a lot more expensive. So I thought I'll go for a hybrid.
Let me know if you know anything about the two bikes above. Any suggestions for other places to buy bikes, other than halfords?
I would say neither of those, if you want a reasonably priced cycle that won't let you down you'll need to increase your budget. You'll save cash in the long run, because the components will last longer, and you won't be replacing parts just after the guarantee runs out.
With cycles, you get what you pay for, and hybrids that are cheaper than road cycles have cheaper components that may not last as long, or give as good a ride. A hybrid that is the same price as a road cycle will have better components, and will be a much better ride than the cheaper one.
Another thing to take into account is that Halfords is a car accessory company that sells cycles as a side line, you'll get a much better deal from a cycle store. If you ask in a proper cycle store, they will have a better range of cycles, and may even have road cycles to suit your budget. If you do plan to ride the occasional trail or path, then the hybrid probably will be better though, both for tyres and riding position.
Incidentally, Halfords will supply any cycle, not just the ones they advertise or display in their shops. I wanted to buy a cycle through the ride to work scheme, but my employer would only issue vouchers for Halfords, and I wanted a cycle from Giant. I selected the cycle I wanted, and it was delivered to my local Halfords branch for me to collect.
If you can't find a particular cycle that you want, just ask at your local branch, and see what they can do.
