seeing that there is only a single rear swingarm instead of a triangle, how much or little rear flex is there on the f5?

Is the 2009 chumba f5 any good for jumping? Is it quick? Or slow and heavy?

8.25". My local trails are almost all decent sized, big bike jumps and the f5 handles them fine. It feels very comfortable in the air and is easy to throw around (and I'm not a big guy). That carries over to DH trails, its liveliness makes easy to find weird lines and double things. I just got the new dogbone link to lower the bb and slacken the h/a, I haven't ridden it, yet, but I'll give you a little review when the snow melts. Quick or slow? I think that's up to the rider...

Thank you very much. I'm looking at getting a 09 f5 frame so thanks for the input. And by quick or slow i meant how responsive it is. Nimble or not?
