I am going to be getting a Jamis Aurora and I found a 2002 for $550 new. The Jamis 2005 is is around $800. If it is that much better I dont mind spending the extra money. I checked out the specifications on each model. The frame is made of the 520 on each but the smaller parts are a bit different on each. I am not framilier with the language at all though so I dont really know how much better the parts on the 2005 are. I could get the 2002 and upgrade some parts or not upgrade at all. Or I could just get the 2005.
What do you all think???
