Hey there, first time post on this great forum so I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I've been searching the classifieds for a new mountain bike and have narrowed it down to a 2011 Devinci Desperado S or 2014 Trek Xcaliber 5. Im looking to keep the costs down and these fall right u to my budget and what I am looking for. Basically leisure ride with my son on and off road.
i cannot decide between the 2 and both can be had first same price. Here are some specs:
Devinci (not carbon frame)

Trek

Which would you choose if you had to name a choice between the 2 and why? Reaching out to the community as I know little to nothing a little the specs.
Thanks!
