Strengths:    Women specific design, with womens' sizing
Plush and fairly light


Weaknesses:    Standard saddle was rubbish - but we upgraded (?) to the same Serfas gel saddle that are on her other bikes

Bottom Line:   
I'm writing this for my wife who got the bike for her birthday last year. She takes this bike out and doesn't come back for extended periods of time. She goes onto single-track which she'd never do on her rigid and she's even working up to some of the longer fire-road climbs. This bike enables and encourages her to try stuff she'd never normally do. And she does it more frequently than ever before. Hell she even went for a ride with me (once). It's a winner for her. Note she didn't get to choose her new bike but this is an obviously major improvement over her old rigid with cantilever brakes. She wanted, demanded actually, a lockout on the rear shock, but she's never used it. She likes the bike so much she got it for Christmas too !

Strengths:    This bike is a WOMENS bike from top to bottom. Ladies, if you've been looking for a smooth comfortable ride, look no furhter. I bought mine after I tried one out at the Sea Otter classic, and it is awsome. I can't put into words how different this bike feels for me.

Weaknesses:    The Julianna seat that came stock on my bike had bent rails.

Bottom Line:   
A womens bike to build and ride how she pleases. It fits, it's light, and I can leave most male riders in the dust!
