Bought a Soul to replace a 456, which was nice and cheap but beat up my dodgy ankle joints after an hour or so. And oh SO heavy!
2 months later I sold my Five... love my Soul!
Does everything the Pennines can through at it...
Souls are pretty tough. I'm ~100kg in my kit and drag mine around Dartmoor without problems. They're bloody ace and mine's far more capable than I am (but that's not saying much). But if you want ram raid banks and win, get a BFe.

Interesting to hear so many people selling their Orange Five's after getting a Soul - that's what happened with me, it's a great all rounder.
I had a Soul that was stolen, and i replaced it with the BFE as i found one going cheap in the classifieds. I thought they were both very similar, the differences being:
Price
Weight
The rear triangle on the soul being more flexy
I would get another soul, but only because i prefer the colour! Otherwise, save your money and get the BFE.
I have a Five & I have a Soul.
Love them both.
Wouldn't sell my Five though...or my Soul
