Ah, the Pulse was doomed ever since I bought it. The mechanic jammed a bigger axel in the fork, installed a shim for the seat post, which broke the frame. The crack in the frame was quite odd too. The seat tube cracked on top of the welding, went to the bottom of the welding and was hanging in a few mm of tubing. The top tube also cracked.
This one though, is way more agile and has more control when it comes to track standing. Best frame I tried until now.
Love it!
