There's not much in it really - neither is "better".

The Specialized is 8-speed and the Giant is 9 though - I'd probably go for the Giant.

Giant is slightly better spec alright, and is on offer! But look at just how much prettier the specialized is (in my opinion anyways!)

Was thinking about getting a mtb myself, been looking for a while then saw this review. It's only €350 in Halfords. It seems a great starter

Well the Giant is £350 so about €380, for an extra 30 id rather get the Giant, its almost fully Shimano Deore aswell which is a big +

P&P is free too!!!
