Hi
I'd agree with the suggestions of The Don and Zulu at Wynd Cliff - both low in the grade and well-protected for their crux sections - but the start of Zulu is quite bold - it's not hard, but does need care. Ironside's Men is a good call as well (I think the crux is a bit bold but safe, and the run-out bit above is steady). I wouldn't recommend Second Wind at all despite the suggestions above - I think it's very good value for the grade and the protection at the crux is a bit over-reliant on oldish pegs for my liking (though it is a good route).
However, my usual suggestion for a first E2 round these parts is Never Say Goodbye at Wintour's Leap. Sustained but never desperate, just about the best-protected pitch on the crag and impeccable climbing. The only snag is that a herring gull frequently decides to nest on it (at the Burning Giraffe break) - if you get in quick you might get there before it. One other thought is My Noble Son Seth at Symonds Yat - bit chilly at the moment as it's on a North-facing bit of the crag.
Incidentally, Swansong Prelude gets E2 whichever you do it, and Bulging Flies was just about the gnarliest choice of first E2 you could have attempted!
