do these have a elasticated waist

yes, just a little bit at the sides and it doesn't show. I find it helps when closing the front buttons. Doesn't go all round the waist.

How wide are these in the thigh? I seem to have an abnormaly large thigh to waist ratio.

These are normal width in the thigh, that's one of the reasons I like them. Other 5.11 pants are often too big in the thigh.

What is the difference between the tactical stryke and the tactical lite pants?

The Stryke material is heavy weight and the lite pants are a mixture of cotton and polyester. I would say the Stryke material is harder wearing - certainly feels tougher - but probably will be hotter too, so it depends on the climate you are looking to use them in.

Are these flexible enough that they wont rip when lifting my leg up and over a bike ?

These are a tactical pant design for use in the field, not some weekend warrior knock off. You will have no problems with these provided you get a pair that fit properly. I have 5.11 stuff that is approaching 10 years old and still serviceable.
