Kranswurm Posted February 14, 2007 Share C'mon Hairy Backs.Found this Intense frame on the Web and I'm interestedIs 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 RP3http://pictures.kyozou.com/pictures/_3/2889/2888628.jpg http://pictures.kyozou.com/pictures/_3/2889/2888629.jpghttp://pictures.kyozou.com/pictures/_3/2889/2888630.jpghttp://templates.kyozou.com/ebay/113/images/enlarge_btn.gifThis 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.FrameIntense Spider XVP Large. 24" top tube, 21" seat tube, 71 degree head angle, 73 degree seat tube angle (classic race geometry!)Steerer size1 1/8"Seatpost31.6 mm, not includedFront Derailleur31.8 mm top pull, not includedBottom Bracket73 mm, not includedSeat Post clampIncludedDerailleur HangerReplaceable, included Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
