I have that bike in the '08 version. I love, love, LOVE it. I bought it in late October, so I didn't get to ride it much before winter set in. I am not a brave one who rides in cold weather. Just by the visual appreance, it looks like the only difference is you have black bars and a black seat. I was so undecided on which bike to get and am so happy that I got it. I hope you enjoy it.
