ride on the Intense 5.5

I got a chance to sneak out for an hour or so on Sunday on the new Intense 5.5. I was expecting something different from the Turner 5 Spot, but I was truly blown away at how this bike handled. I made a little write up comparing it to the 5 Spot and put it up on the Redstone site. It's a question I've heard quite a bit, so here it is...

That makes me even more satisfied with my choice! I'm really happy with:

1. The 5.5's climbing abilities
2. Handles like a race bike, descends like a freeride bike.
3. The design, so well thought out.
4. The finish. It looks great (to me at least).

I only hope that once you get that 6.6 built I don't want it more.
