considering the 2008 is slightly cheaper (as in the prices quoted above) and has slightly better components.... it's a no-brainer isn't it? i think the new one looks good, too (and i have the old one).
the stock quill stem on the 07 is a heavy, ugly piece of crap and I immediately ditched it. the new version looks heap better (and will be easier to replace anyway cos it looks like it's got an aheadset now). so if you want to change the bars it gives you more options in terms of swapping stems to accommodate different diameters etc.
