you forgot to take into account the wheels. stypes are much stronger than the no-name crap rims that are on the 357.
people are more likely to break wheels before forks, you know...
i'd take the eastern over the 357 any day. but if i really had the money i'd get the 357 and swap out the fork, rims and brake for something better. say, an argyle 318, mtxes and a juicy/stroker.
Nope thats the 07 night train. That too has DJ IIIs
