    I'm looking for Ellsworth dealers in UK. Their website ellsworthbicycles.comellsworthbicycles.com only lists
    Freeborn in Horsham. I understand Freeborn supplies other dealers, but can't find details of any
    apart from Brixton Cycles (through a Google search). Unfortunately I need something further north
    (I'm near York). I would like to try a Truth before deciding if to fork out for a Santa Cruz Blur.
    London and Horsham aren't out of the question, just not very convenient for us northern sorts!

    Cheers, Dave

    Why don't you try phoning Freeborn to see if there are any northern stores that they distribute to?

    Sent them an email last night but just noticed they're open Sundays from 11am. Will call them soon.
    Would like to go out somewhere today, hence the posting last night.

    Sunday opening eh? We still have half day Wednesdays round here!

    Cheers guys, Dave

    Thanks for the replies guys. After a very fruitful half hour conversation with Dean at Freeborn it
    looks like a trip to Horsham is in order.

    Regards, Dave

    Buy something else as Ellsworth has some durability issues with the Truth (among other models) and
    the company is owned and run by an unethical egomaniacal liar.

    Turner 5 Spot might be a decent alternative (four bar) if you can find one to test ride.
