I have been watching this bike with interest.

As I am intending to buy an offroad bike that I can also use for occasional weekend tours this looks not bad.

But on the other hand they have the X2 which seems to be a good bike by now. Can anybody point out why to get an X5 over the X2?

X5 has slightly more power but is heavier, so acceleration should be similar.
Handling of the lighter X2 should be better, while the X5 might be more comfortable.
Look of the X5 is cool, no doubt. But it is considerably more expensive. (Just for a few more plastic parts???)

To me it looks like a X2 is more fun for less money. And by dong a few adjustments to luggage rack, maybe gearing and suspension it should be just as suitable for touring. Am I missing anything?
