A buddy of mine has an eiger and it's a great little bike. He has had no promblems with it. It's what I would get for my wife, but I know my wife will never get crazy in water, maybe some mud but never water. If your wife will stay out of the water I say go for the eiger. They are cheaper but you get what you pay for. What I mean is it's kinda generic with the speedo and stuff like that.
