I had my mountain bike stolen, so am now trying to replace it, I thought I might upgrade to a full suspension bike, as I find specialized's full suspension bikes are (just) small enough for me.
I have also looked at the Geometries of Scott, Kona, Marin, Trek & Giant: their FS bikes are all too big. I know when I tried out the Cannondale HT last year (petite size) it was too big.
The 2009 bikes I'm looking at are the Myka FSR Comp, Myka FSR Expert, and the Safire Comp. I went to Bob Trotters, they're only discounting the 2008 bikes they have in stock, which are both mediums, too big for me.
Has anyone tried the womens specialized bikes? What do they think of them?
Do any other local shops do them?
what local shops are good for after sales service, and mechanical work on the bike? (shops that stock specialized)
How can I get the bikes for less than full price?
will I really notice the difference in ride between HT and FS?
thanks
Ann
