Dangerous Dave said...: Ah well. Interestingly enough, it only weighs 28lbs as I found out today! Not bad for the kit on it.

Just goes to show the 5spot truly is a "jack of all trades"!!; 7/21/2008 6:29 pm |

Farqui said...: The 5Spot is a solid workhorse and I'm sure it'd be better at surving landings than a plastic Trek.

Anonymouse - we've a 5Spot frameset for sale amongst our posse - medium, HL Spot with 5.5 rockers, an '08 RP23. More info here. Drop me an email if you're interested (see sidebar "Contact").; 1/28/2009 9:43 am |
