I'm buying a hard-tail mountain bike and having trouble choosing. I have narrowed it down to a Cannondale Trail SL 2 women's specific and a Specialized Jett Comp womens specific. They are both priced the same.

I already have a Specialized SX trail which is great for the bike parks, but way too much bike for my local xc trails.

Just looking for a little feedback. Thanks.

Dancin' over rocks n' roots!
Have you had the chance to ride both bikes? Fit is really everything and you'll likely know which bike is best for you when you ride it. Since you already have a Specialized, you may find that you like the Jett better, but I really don't know enough about your local trails or the specific bikes to give you good advice, other than try to ride both. Good luck!

Thanks for the reply. unfortunately the shop doesn't have them in stock for me to ride. I love my specialized but i might be leaning toward the cannondale just because of the components.
