Hi, new to the forums!

I was wondering if anyone could help me with this decision.
I'm deciding between a 2008 Specialized Hardrock Sport that's for sale at a local bike shop for $339 and a Kona Lanai (2008 components on a 2009 frame) for $359 at another local shop. It seems like the components of the bikes are similar but I heard that Kona's quality is superior. If anyone could provide some insight or feedback?

Oh, and if this helps, I'm planning to take this bike to upstate NY when school starts again.
Thanks guys!

Both good bikes. I'd get the one that I think the chics would dig more. Good luck!
