hey there
i am taking my 2012 five to the alps in a week and half to morzine area, then its doing the mega avalanche. have a look at my pics. its a mini dh bike now, really looking forward to using it out there. i had a 222 but that recently died. the 5 is way more nimble and still loads of fun. there are some pics from cwm carn downhill day, last saturday 30/06/12.
the five is a very impressive machine. it is popular for a reason. you can make it an individual very easily

The neon is pretty eye catching like! The bike looks really nice though. I remember reading a review a while ago now in dirt where they had a five fitted with a ccdb in morzine and they said it was a great mini-dh bike
everyone knows if you stick a real decent shock on a single pivot, you will have the best DH bike, Orange all the way!!

the good thing about ccdb is they are so tunable you can make any bike feel how you want it! you could have a 222 that rode like a v10 if you wanted. couldnt quite afford one though, an rc4 is on my 224 and i love it!
