Been trying to figure this out, I've seen a dozen websites post either 5.2 lbs or 5.5 lbs... seems like rather a large difference?
As far as I can tell this isn't related to the shock being run, and I don't think they've changed the frame significantly yet to warrant that kind of weight difference.
I also understand that the paintless version weighs 8 ounces less or so?

None of this is explained on the Intense website unfortunately.

Does anyone have any idea what a paintless mediumish spider would *actually* come out to?

The 5.2lb weight is for a frame with NO shock. According to the weight weenies sight a medium polished frame with a 5th element is 5.5lbs and a medium painted one with the heavier AVA is 5.75lb. The weight varies depending on the shock of choice frame size and paint. The heaviest models are the 05's which have the larger 5.5 bearings and weigh about 6lbs for a painted large.
