I have a PaceMaster Pro Plus since Sept, 1997. I, my wife and oldest son use it regularly for all types of training, speed, distance, hills, etc. It has been a great performer and the few problems I had (early on had an LED out and some other minor issues) Aerobics Inc. backed the product and shipped out parts at no cost immediately. It has an aircraft alluminum farme so shock absorpstion isnt an issue and its not quite so heavy as those with metal frames. The one your looking at is really cool with some advanced features like the -3 degree for working downhills and quads. I would higly recommend it. I would buy that model myself right now excpet theres nothing wrong with mine so its difficult to justify the expediture. Good Luck.
