Hi lads

Has anyone ridden the following 2014/2015 Whyte 901/905/909 or Cotic Soul 27.5.

I'm kind of torn between these 2 bikes but haven't had a chance to test ride either of them yet.

The riding I do is mainly Trails and single track....red runs at best.

Plenty of climbs involved to living in Wales.

Would also like to put in some fire road epics now and again.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Have you considered the T129s or T130s both ride amazing, I've recently bought the T130s and is really good.

    I did have a try on the 901 and yes that's also a great bike but when compared to the other two I just mentioned there is certainly a difference for the better.

    I have a whyte 901 purchased in Oct last year awesome bike look no further
    I ride mainly single track trails some loose stuff and some rocky stuff and some fire trails
    I'm 179cms got a medium
    Gears fantastic
    Fork fantastic
    Handles everything & drops that used to worry me now the Whyte handles with speed
    Now use a lot less braking its a confidence inspiring bike
    Put a wider tyre on rear and new ODI grips but everything else is perfect
    Dropper post next upgrade!
