- 5.5" rear travel - Fox RP23 rear shock - Was serviced (w/ new seals) at The Path three months ago. Additionally, the bearings were replaced. Since, the bike has been on the trail three times (was riding the singlespeed more)

As a general guide, Intense (from website) has rider height for the medium from 5'6" to 6'. I'm about 6' tall with a 33 1/4" inseam. I prefer riding a smaller sized frame.

I REALLY want your F4; however, I'm going to be cutting it really close this month. Just started my new job today, and my paper work won't be ready for me to be paid next Friday . No paycheck til the end of the month.

It doesn't mean that I may not buy your frame.......she's a beauty!!!!!

Jason, my medium 5.5 is up and running if you want to take it for a quick spin to check for sizing. A medium 5.5 feels much larger than your medium VPX. And this FRO frame is about a half pound lighter than mine.

Hmm...there could be some interesting horse trading here...5.5/F4.

Default Hmmm

You could be the proud owner of one off the last US made F4 DH frames around and its in great condition.
I have to sell it for reasons I cant talk about on here.
Not because I don't love the frame. I will be sad for sure.

But really how many DH bikes do I really need.

Whos wife lets them have 3 DH bikes?
I need to sell one of my Motorcycles for sure too.
Thats going to hurt a lot but It has to be done.

Hmm nice Med Im six two. but with biger wheels a med might be cool.
My only problem is I would have to start hunting all the parts to build it up.

Scott are you planning on trying DH ?

The F4 only needs wheels head set forks,stem,brakes and bars,



I have for sale forks , stem, head set , brakes, bars. I don't have any wheels though.

If you are interested let me know I can send you pictures.

my email address is jasonseamans@gmail.com
