Awesome video, but the couple of seconds of clips for next weeks one look sick. Can't wait. You have to love the STUND videos. Those guys are living the dream.

Always wanted an M5. Wicked looking bike.

Not for me, but sure there is some mad man out there somewhere!

I left the rear shock as an air shock, changed down to a RP23 HV which seems to work well. I would imagine that you could run the 6 point as a do anything bike with no problems. You could even increase the rear travel by changing the shock to a 8.75x2.75 (Vpfree shock). I remember reading that the 6 point uses the same rear end as the 7 point. It is just the front triangle that is different.

lottsdave. Changed the rear shock to a 8.5x2.5 to slacken the bike a little. Climbs like a dream and does down like a mini Sunday. So far, so good. Is yours built yet?
Got mine at 30lb.
