How good of bikes are the Diamondback response xe and response sport 09?

looking to use it for tough trails and dirt jumping, but im mainly wondering about how good the components are.

diamond backs arn't all that great from the start. the frames arn't very good. the response sport doesnt have a very good fork, brakes and i think its heavy and im not sure of the price. i cant find the xe but i found comp and its more pricy with not much better components but i still dont know how much it costs. the specialized hardrock sport is a really nice bike for 500 and the specialized rockhopper is very nice for 640. id look into those 2.
