Five

Looks really cool, nice rides, by all accounts, not many mountains around though! would love one in the small size.

 

[Andy B]

Cheers, yeah it is a bit overkill for local rides, but it really gets in to it's stride when I take her to Wales, Scotland, N.Yorkshire, or anywhere with proper hills

I'll happily let anyone ride her on forum rides, so if anyone wants a blast let me know, oh yeah SPD's are compulsory, I'm not faffing with pedals mid ride

Rides

There's some good rides just over the bridge from you though? Brantingham cliff, and a bit further over. I used to live near there, clay soils though an sticky with it!

 

[Andy B]

I've decided to use the 5 as my winter bike, it's not been used all summer

So I've DIY'd a NeoGuard and whacked a rear Crud Catcher on it, the Fizik saddle has been replaced with a Charge Spoon Ti

Just had it up on the newly acquired digital scales

The result: 28lb 1oz (12.7kg)

Not bad as I was aiming for 28lb, can't wait to blast round the trails on it
