  • Usual Canyon question, size and rider height, inseam etc etc etc?

    My girlfriend has now decided she likes mountain biking, so we're looking at Canyons.

    Very nice bike, pretty tidy. Don't waste your time at sherwood pines though, worst trail centre I've ever had the misfortune of visiting.

    It's ok for a new bike shakedown plus its only 30mins from us.

    Canyon seems fine, good bikes and good prices. The forks have been good so far although only ridden the bike twice, the lockout is miles better than the DT one on my other bike.
