Oi! - The Soul is pretty damn good so your okay. When my Soda got stolen, I couldn't afford to replace it so I went back to new Soul and was much happier than I expected to be.

Besides you can always get a second-hand Soda....my stolen one is probably on sale for a bargain price somewhere out there!

well I've had it since they first came out (it's no 12) so you could say I'm pretty happy with it The only real reason I'd change is to save a bit of weight, but there are a hell of a lot of places I could achieve that for less first (swapping out the old Enduro4s for one). Still, one can dream..

sorry to hear about your Soda, hate bike thieves. Still, you could get it back - a mate got his Pace returned by chance a little while back, so it does/ can happen.

Well - it's been 18 months so I'm not too hopeful.

BTW I had Soul number 10 (not from new) and my brother had that stolen at the same time as my Soda. After 4 years of cotics, I got the suspension bug and bought a Superlight frame a few months ago. Still love the Soul though, and ride me bruvver's sometimes.
