Seems to be a pretty decent review..

Looks like it's a great year for women to be looking for new bikes…Syren, Vyxa [HTML_REMOVED] Minxy will all fit the bill!

This trip to Kelowna was definately an undertaking - Liam and I had been planning this project for 24 hours. We worked really hard to pull out all the stops in this video. We had slo-mo goggle shots; time lapses; pedal flips; outrageous product shots; unloading and loading the bike; walking through the field with your hand in wheat. At the end of the day this trip was all about just getting out and riding with all my friends.

That is a pretty thorough review.

…

It is not being marketed/hyped as a woman specific model; however, in terms of absolute standover the new Specialized Big Hit series is definitely worth looking at.

They offer more travel then the Syren, Vyxa or Minxy for a similar weight (and the standover is very good).

…

I also find myself taking issue with a 3k+ bike coming with Juicy 3 brakes… but that might be the new reality.
