My better half wants a new bike, so I'm having a look around for her.

She's after something in the trail area, but more agro than XC, and ideally something nice & light.

Not really interested in a tank like the Spitfire, however that said a lighter, carbon version would be spot on, just not an 8lb+ 140mm travel frame.

Only other criteria would be if she's going for something new, we may as well embrace the change and make it 650b.

So, what else is out there?

New Yeti? Jesus. I'm not that brave.

Some good ideas in the other post, thanks.

Not a huge amount in this area it would seem.
