Apex for sure. anyone that says verde is just biased and probably owns a verde.

So? That doesn't mean it's better than the apex.

I have the 08 verde and its really nice... only complaint is that the chain comes with thick grease that attracts tons of dirt (you need to degrease the chain really well before you ride the bike) and the pedals that come with it are pieces of shit. Otherwise its super nice. Also I run it brakeless, like all my street setups, but with a 28t sprocket the chain comes REALLY close to the break mounts and can even hit them when u land. I could see it really tearing up a u-brake... idk what kinda setup you like, but the premium inspired is awesome looking... never ridden one but it looks great. Also check out FBM.


BTW, the 'blank' hubs on my modus look suspiciously like odyssey... does anyone know if they are just made by odyssey but without the name brand to cut some of the price off, or something along those lines?
