I guess the title say's it all, looking for recommendations for onsightable (not a word apparently)  quality 7bs, non-cruxy would be preferable but other than that, all suggestions gratefully accepted.

I need a focus to keep me off the beer and cake until autumn

Ta!

Of the 7b's I've done, I'd say these would be decent for onsight tries...

Elizabeth (7b)

Eros Telendos (7b)

Lucky Luca (7b) springs to mind immediately, what else can I find in my logbook...

Fire Wall (7b) was pretty steady from memory

Poppy (7b) was one of the best steep routes I've done at the grade, although it's a bit of a trek to the crag.

Lulu in the Sky (7b) I've not commented in the logs which infers it was pretty straightforward

Aurora (Part 1) (7b) I think is downgraded in places but great techy vert climbing.

Have done Lulu and Firewall but the others look interesting. Thanks.

Ergo (7b) - a good rest, quite pumpy, but generally sustained rather than cruxy.

In reply to GravitySucks:

A couple more ideas:

Armata Sikati (7b) Not sure it's that easy but a brilliant route. Keep pushing hard to the top

Gladiator (7b) Quite an easy one so could be a good contender. Perhaps slightly sequency through the crux

I kept this one off my list because of the bouldery start, If you can figure it out from the floor (there'll be plenty of chalk to guide you of course) then yes, the rest goes pretty comfortably but that start is intense!

In reply to GravitySucks:

Agree 7B Lulu in the sky and Gladiator.
