    I ordered something a few months ago and it said that. I rang them a week later and they explained it was not actually in stock, and was on order…Offered refund which I took, not used them since.

    Yeah, thought I would try here first but i agree it needs to be looked at in person…

    Yeah, looks right up to the point where I put in this bit…the silver bit is 1cm high and i can only get it about 2-3 mm into the bit below.

    Decided to pass on the HiFi to the wife and build up the 5 Spot. Going to be impossible to get close to the weight of the HiFi but the frame should last forever as she only weighs 50Kg 🙂

    Like the look of that sangria red…definitely tempted by that as I have the same polished rear triangle

    Not sure about green, but definitely not rasberry pink !

    Currently thinking blood red or blue of some shade, although green could work but would want to see it on a frame first

    Bigdean, I see you had the F120 with 491mm axle to crown which is very similar to my Reba with 493mm. What year was your 5 spot please? Why did you change the fork? Seems I might well get away with it.

    According to Turner my 2006 model required an axle to crown fork of 501mm, and according to this link the reba has 493mm so not too far out…more investigations required…

    Thanks Khani, that is what I understand. Now just got to decide whether I can make do with the fork or get an ebay bargain

    Ok measured at 68mm, and have crankset in my hands, so assume now its 2 spacers on the drive side, and one on other side?

    Ok, sounds easy enough, know for sure its threaded, so now just have to get the tape measure out 🙂
