I am planning on getting a new bike, and i want something durable porque i am hard on my bikes. anyone heard anything about any of these?

my options:
'06 Specialized Fuse Two
07 MirraCo Black Pearl 2
'07 MirraCo Blend 1
'07 MirraCo Black Pearl 1
'07 MirraCo Five Star Park

I havent ever ridden any bmx from specialized or mirraco, what have people found to be good AND bad about these bikes/ these companies?

Should i even be considering these companies? What do you ride and why do you like it?

I have the crappy MirraCo Signature. The Black Pearl is nice though; the guys at my LBS let me try one out. Even the crappy base models like the one I have aren't as bad as people would have you believe.

I have the 07 Black Pearl 2...I just bought it a couple of weeks ago from the LBS, and I love it. I have been beating on it pretty good at some local construction sites and it has held up. It has everything you need, and its pretty light. With all of the crap removed from the LBS (kickstand, reflectors, chain guard and pegs) it weighs in at about 27-28 lbs.
