Welcome to the forum, for me it would the Specialized, with the Trek you'd get a slighty better frame, but the componants aren't quiet as good overall. Then again, you can't go wrong with either.

I'd go for the Rockhopper, it's a classic design from one of the original mtb manafacturers, it does exactly what it say's on the box and is generally bulletproof.


Welcome to the Forum, by the way.........
