Is there a large frame size for the Salisbury?
The one that I test road was perhaps a Inch smaller then the Synergie Mystral and up along side looked a bit of a junior.
Is there any tall Salisbury owners out there?

There's only the one frame size Wayne.

I think some of the Salisbury riders in here are quite tall, maybe one will respond.

Thanks flecc...no replies as yet.
I take all points on the pros of the Salisbury. Its weight, build quality, free running motor, reliability but still find my self procrastinating between this and the Synergie.
I live on the Isle of Wight and its fairly hilly.
Do you think my height six foot one and weight fourteen stone favours one or the other?
Many Thanks.

I'm not tall enough to judge Wayne, but the Synergie Mistral is a little more powerful. That would be useful on those IoW hills, the southern "alps" in particular.

Neither are at the powerful end where hill climbing is concerned, but the most suitable bikes for climbing are at the top end of the price range, so not an option.

Much depends on where you are riding in the island of course, the north eastern quarter being fairly easy, but some of those hills in the south and near Yarmouth could be hard work.
