I would have to go with Monk, I'd pick Bard, but I'd think the hybrid penalty would slow them down just enough.
I think the bigger difference is the advantage gained by "supertwinking". Bards aren't gear dependent, all they need to excel in kiting is a good instrument. Monks are much more gear dependent and the results from supertwinking a monk will be noticeable.

I'm pretty sure that after level 5, a bard can outpace a monk, even with the steeper class exp penalty. I FLEW through the low 20s, I earned 21-23 in 1hr each level. And now that I know the exp spots, I'm pretty sure I could go even faster /played next time because I won't be traveling all around trying to find good leveling spots.
