Any good ? Also what is the difference (apart from the paint job) with the WSD version ?

Cheers

    WSD has different geometry, womens saddle, lighter springs etc.

    Its a good budget full suss bike in spec terms. What sort of riding will you be ding, and budget?

    Cheers. Maybe a womens saddle would not be so comfortable ! Budget is around £850 (cyclescheme voucher). Most advise seems to steer towards a hard tail at this price point - I tried a P7S the other day, which I liked but would prefer a stiffer fork and slightly wider handle bars. I can't really stretch to the Fox fork upgrade at £140 !

    I have moved back to the UK (on the coast) from Switzerland, so my downhill days are a bit more limited. However something to ride to work, but more importantly finding the steepest stuff I can find and launching myself off it or down it ....

    Any other advise ? It is now looking like either a P7S or the Trek 5.5

    Anyone know the results of the upcomming £1k full suss test ?
