Hey guys, I was hoping one of you experts could gimme a hand figuring out what year these two bikes are.

One of them is a Specialized Hardrock, rigid. I bought it a while ago on Craigslist, but it's a little too big so I bought a different frameset on Craigslist to build up from scratch after selling the Specialized Hardrock. The other is a Schwinn Mesa GSX. I've narrowed it down to either 2000 or 1999 because it came with a Rockshox Jett fork.

Here are the two bikes:

Thanks in advance!

After a more thorough check on bikepedia, I realized that it mentions the additional colours that the bike came in, and mine seems to be a 2000.

But I'm still stumped on the Hardrock..
