Are you thinking of getting the 07 or 08 The 07 is very nice there isnt really alot of flex. They ride really well, the frames a little short and the reverse magura mounts are a pain but the 08 frames are really good nice longish and low, a little more flex in the brake area than the other one but a 2bolt or 4 bolt booster will sort that out 07 frame feels very streety like a short levelboss The 08 reminds me of a cross between the GU LE and Czar and feels a little more comp/light street I have had both frames and the 08 wins other the 07 worth the £230/£153 (Zhi chris) Biddle
