What a price for the STP top model. I have a feeling not too many kids will be riding them anymore. Closer to three grand, i mean Giant is known for its great deals, but 3 grand for a not a botique bike. Seems a bit steep, sure it has great parts but is it worth the extra 1000 dollars over the stp 0?

You better be finding a scanner right now! :D

STP Pro sounds fantastic, STP0 sounds porky, shame about the raceface gear too, kind of glad I got the '07 in fact (though I'd have taken the pro option for sure).
