Rebelistic Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 Hi, I was thinking of getting a new Pure myself to build up. I'm not sure which one to go for the 06 is only £180 on Tarty or I could go for the 07 one for an extra £50. If I went for the 07 one then I'm not sure weather to go for the short or long. (I'm not particularly tall)I guess it's probably better to pay more and get the 07 if it's better than the 06? My bikes do get a beating but I've never broken a frame so it'd probably last me a while.I currently ride an 04 or 05 pure I think which has done me well but I feel like a change.Cheers,John.

mairomaster Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 joe maher cracked his brake mounts....but i think it was down to a defect in the frame Don't you think the new frames could be too weak? The brake mounts loooks really thin. And the frame weights almost as koxx, but at very low price (even koxx aren't known as very strong frames).
