C'mon Hairy Backs.

Found this Intense frame on the Web and I'm interested

Is there a big difference between this and the 2007(apart from the rim brakes)

Is this a good buy and what fork would you recommend(rim brakes)

Intense Spider XVP Frame New 2004 Large Black RP3 http://pictures.kyozou.com/pictures/_3/2889/2888628.jpg http://pictures.kyozou.com/pictures/_3/2889/2888629.jpg http://pictures.kyozou.com/pictures/_3/2889/2888630.jpg http://templates.kyozou.com/ebay/113/images/enlarge_btn.gif

This is a new, never built up 2004 Intense Spider XVP.  Some cross country racer out there is going to like this one because it has hard to find v-brake mounts, and most XC racers will still tell you how v-brakes are lighter than disc brakes, and they are all you need for a cross country race bike. This frame features a Fox Float RP3 rear shock,  4" of travel, and awesome made in the USA workmanship.  Virtual Pivot Point (VPP) is a multi link rear suspension that isolates the drive train from unwanted pedaling forces. Frame Intense Spider XVP Large.  24" top tube, 21" seat tube, 71 degree head angle, 73 degree seat tube angle (classic race geometry!) Steerer size 1 1/8" Seatpost 31.6 mm, not included Front Derailleur 31.8 mm top pull, not included Bottom Bracket 73 mm, not included Seat Post clamp Included Derailleur Hanger Replaceable, included

Get it, then get some Discs to go with it and mount it up to a disc RS Reba.

....or you could just buy the right bike the first time round and get one of these:

Don't listen to Titus, he weighs like f**kall and would not undertand, V's are the better option - so it's perfect just they why it is!

[Kranswurm]

Oi MS,

I've got to feed the masses and there aint much left.

I can pick this up for US 995 which is a bargain

Trouble is I dont know much about Intense

[MintSauce]

 V's are the better option

 

 

Marius, ek dink dis uitlatings soos hierdie wat jou daai titel van 'funniest hubber' laat wen het

[Dicky DQ]

Marius, watch out you are going to run out of bandwidth shortly. Look after you share,,,,, slowly now.

[MintSauce]

Kransie....i'm going to do you a favour and have a look around. There was a compnay selling 05 Racer X's a while back for the same

 

What size you ride?

[TitusTi]

Don't listen to Titus' date=' he weighs like f**kall and would not undertand, V's are the better option - so it's perfect just they why it is!

Hmm, contradict yourself there? I don't weigh much and the V's aren't good enough?

[supertorro]

I've only heard really good things about Intense.  Even Lea recommends them.

Intense uses Santa Cruz's rear ends.

 

 

[MintSauce]

You could always get the Intense and then just order some of these....

Not quite the same though

[NotSoBigBen]

Aren't those the ones that look like Raleigh's?

[AndreZA]

Aren't those the ones that look like Raleigh's?
