No… Not Really be I will try 😀
I was coming from a fairly steep angled XC bike so both descended much better but for me the Five had a very slight advantage which I felt was more due to the bike fitting me better rather anything particularly bad about the zesty’s descending.
But the deciding factor was I could feel the Five biting into sharp steep climbs and giving just a little more grip ( perhaps the Zesty was doing the same but i could no FEEL it)
As for long term ownership, the Five can be a pain climbing long hills which is not a problem when my fitness is ok, but when it drops ( my fitness) I can fall behind the group very quickly, I can still feel the back end gripping on sharp steep stuff and still like it. Descending is great, with a dropper post making it even better.
As I said my plan was to keep the bike for a good few years and I liked the idea that Orange were unlikely to change the design much.
Sorry not much help I know, but if you are in the North East I could probably arrange a ride on a ( 3yr old ? zesty and maybe a 1 year old spicy)
