Get the Pake. Best bang for your buck, hands down. I rode mine for 2 years and it was fantastic. Strong, stiff and responsive. I got a really good deal on an NJS frame so I sold the Pake to my friend but if this bike gets stolen I'll be going back to Pake.

I had the older model. The new Pakes with the straight blade forks and no bottle bosses look nice. And don't worry about weight, I used to. It doesn't make a difference unless you're a *****.
