Looks like the 5 29 has become the Alpine 5 for 2015.

Not sure if anything other then the specs are different? Prefer the new decals though so might be time for a colour change if the frame's the same.

Makes sense within the line-up I guess!

Thankfully it's an 'alpine' not 'enduro'

Exactly the same frame as the Five29 (which has been removed from the site) by all accounts, just some new stickers and build options. I hope this isn't what they meant when they posted on their facebook page about bringing out a "new" 29er.

They also seem to have removed the frame only option, which is a bit worrying. I hope that's not the way they are going with the whole range. Orange full builds have always been expensive, but the frame only options weren't too bad.

I wouldn't worry as there's no options available yet either. I'm sure the site will be updated over time.
