we have rain here and it has washed most of the white stuff away.
but I do remember when Goteborg airport was shut at Easter due to snow one year."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Have ridden about 70 km on the Five now and it just keeps getting better, the fork is bedded in and is pretty much stiction free, the rear shock has been fine tuned and is plush to the point of being embarassing, rockmelon sized rocks dissapear without much fuss whatsoever. The combination of the 15mm fork and the maxel rearend + the inherent stiffness of the frame makes it carve harder than my old Rocky ridge and that bike was a weapon :twisted:
Can thoroughly recommend buying one.
Might just ask Steve Worland for a job now .........all

Did you purchase this bike via the internet from bikeactive.com ?
ThankYouVeryMuch0 -
Yep, even spoke to Rob the manager on the phone, Had the bike inside 2 weeks from the the date that I ordered, from my experience a great company to deal with.
As for the bike It just keeps feeling better and better, cant wait for summer!!!
Cant believe I'm chating with Elvis :shock:.........all

Cool man. Thanks for the reply. I was a bit sceptical about using their website to purchase from since it does not look as professional as other bike websites. You've put my mind at ease.
ThankYouVeryMuch0 -
Love the 5.
I want one of these as my next bike - keep us posted on your experiences with it0 -

I never did find that orange after I took the photo, I remember the kids and I played a spot of football with it in the loungeroom but after that it dissapeared, hopefully the kids didn't kick it under the lounge :oops:.........all
