well their built for different things, and they both have attributes i like. ones freeride ones XC, and their both hard tail and cheap, so im wondering for someone who does road, xc, and freeride, what would be the best.

and tires would be a good thing to mention now too. what should i get that is good for trails and really grippy on the road as well?

(they both rated the same, but the trek is cheaper...)
