I think the weight makes a huge difference, like I said if you want to try her on a 17kg Rise you're welcome to come grab our one sometime, my Mrs can't ride atm so it's just sitting there in our shed

Yeah my Mrs rode the Rise before & after it went on it's diet & honestly for someone that size the difference between a 19kg+ bike & a 17kg bike on a trail is like night & day Unfortunately wasn't able to get to that Redwoods ride with FST a couple weeks back but hopefully can catch up with him...

I've just been through a similar exercise with an ebike for my 159cm/52kg Mrs, she also rides a high-end mtb, in her case a small Santa Cruz/Juliana Joplin CC down-country bike with carbon everything, XX1 drivetrain, Reserve carbon wheelset etc etc so yeah a high bar was set.. After much...
