Captain Scarlet Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 They are fairly good bikes, are really good quality and finish.With the 1.3 the forks only have a Disc mount, no canti studs for Vee brakes, and no 4 bolt mounts for magura's, so this can be a pain if the disc isn't good.Personally, if you could stretch to it, I would get the 1.2, for £200 extra your getting a nicer colour, Twin Hydraulic Hs33 brakes, and better spec in other areas (I think wheel or cranks).But as a starter a 1.3 would do fine.
