Thanks for that input RyanFPrice…so true, no one would even think of a “woman specific car”, nonsense.

After extensive research of women vs men bikes, of different makes and models….detailed, nitty gritty comparison of components, I decided on

Anthem Advanced SX (27.5) 2016.  In Canada it sells for $5, 460.00 CAD which is pretty good.  Can”t wait for it to get here.

Thanks for all info.

Thanks for the advice, appreciated.  Since posting my question I’ve done extensive research comparing the nitty-gritty details of various frames (and brands) and their geometry.  It turns out that the differences between WSD and mens are very small, 0.5 degree, 0.5 cm… In fact my Anthem2 is almost identical in geometry to the Lush.  Taking Maddslacker’s point, I checked out the Anthem Advanced and it looks very promising.  Great bike for the price, even carbon frame seems affordable.  The Trek’s Lush at $6,599 CAD has a lot to offer, in fact I’m bringing one home tonight for a whole day of riding tomorrow!  Barry, the Trek store owner in Toronto is letting me use one of his bikes, nice eh?
