Default advice needed low end bikes

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

hi,

I'm about to buy a bike and have twoin my shortlist.

They're the b1 Stelis http://www.beone-bikes.com/indexEng.html
and
Specialized HardRock Comp Disc
http://www.specialized.com/bc/SBCBkM...sid=05Hardrock

The bike is for xc and some road too, not for big jumps or extrem dh.

Which one is more robust? and more reliable?

Any other much better than this one (robust, reliable, better parts)
than these two, for equivalent price?

Thanks in advance,

Luis Mendes

The Specialized Hardrock is a very robust bike. Check out the beating a
Hardrock takes in this video:
