Anyone ever try the K2 Proflex 5000?
My cousing just let me borrow his K2 Proflex 5000 mtb. It has a CF swing arm(?) in the rear with Judy front shocks, XTR components, front disc brake and Chris King hub'd wheels. He said they only made this style for a couple of years. It laos has a carbon bar and seat post if that matters any.
I'm not too familiar with these bikes. Has anyone tried them before? How's the durability? The rear shock has an electronic box that supposedly controls the stiffness.
It's certainly different and very yellow. I'll try and take a pic soon and post it up.
In the meantime, if anyone has an opinion on the bike please post them up. Also, how much did these go for and how much would one be worth these days?
Thanks!
Gary
