Agree w/ [MENTION=159681]Bianchigirll[/MENTION] that this Mondia is a modest model.
These two bikes are so different that certainly one must 'suit your fancy' more than the other. Pick that one to improve first. (tho' I hate stuck stems or seat posts)
I almost had my '88 Grizzly looking svelte and fast but those 26x1.25 tires were a big mistake.
