Hi All,, I find the ride on my Puma ST Line X a little Harsh,, It seems a little softer in TRAIL mode,, Why is this ? And would any other modes produce a better ride,, Many thanks,, John....

It's just your imagination. The suspension is fixed and doesn't change at all when you select the driving mode of choice.
The ST Line X has sports suspension, and gives a stiffer ride. Personally it's how I like it, but, each to their own. If you want a softies ride you need the Titanium. :D

I was about to say the same. The 19" wheels give a firmer ride, but should give better handling. And vice versa for the 18" wheels. I find my 19" wheels a bit too firm on a poor road surface, but once you're on the mail drag it's not noticeable.

I also found them slightly noisier on some road surfaces when I test drove one. But they do look better.
