Finally got round to building up my old 5-Spot that I had powdercoated. Quite pleased with how it's turned out (pics hosted on MTBR so probably need to be a member and logged in to see).....

Is this the bike you built with just 'spare' stuff hanging around the shed?....

They are, but my experience of the 5-Spot is they are pretty bombproof, and engineered with a fair margin of safety. The Lyrics are u-turn so will likely run it around 145-150mm rather than the full 160mm.

Some of it is (cranks, bb, mechs, shifters, saddle, stem, post, bars), but then forks, wheels, and brakes ended up finding their way onto here as a result of upgrades to another bike!
