Anybody have info on the music?
-
Very Nice! Now, if we just had a Sony SteadyCam to film this then we'd be in business! Your music choice was perfect and you're a polite cyclist. Simply outstanding!

How much does the bike weight
-
From what I've seen, their full suspension bikes are all single-pivot designs, which translates to pedal bob and locking up under braking. I'm sure they are probably on the heavier side of the spectrum.
-
Yup! One of the best buys at the $1200 price point for sure!
-
Just got this bike last season. Its got one of the best cassettes iv used in a long time. The bike is amazing for xc racing.
-
Honestly, I don't think you'll find a better spec'd bike for the price! My only complaint with the frame was the long geometry/slow steering. Other than that, BikesDirect is great, and they respond quickly as well as honor their warranty policy. I recommend the site to anyone on a budget looking for a great spec'd bike. I wouldn't touch their Full Suspension bikes though (all single pivot designs)
-
WHats your opinion on the bike? I know some people dont like bikes direct, but whats your experience?

i got the sauerland in germany :P :D

Thanks bro! I recently modded it to minimize shake and it is pretty much rock solid now. You can see the modded version in my latest vid at Aliso Woods.

Great video and nice bike. Wish I had a MTB trail in my hometown to ride. I usually hit a trail after work while I am in Indianapolis.

the music is....to kill for...i'm puffing as we speak...hahah
-
Hahaha just asked you this in a message and it popped in my inbox. All good! Thanks man!
-
I've taken this bike off some small jumps, maybe up to just a couple feet and it feels great. Super stable!
-
I am getting this in the 19" Can't wait!!!! Have you jumped it? If so , what is the diff in feel compared to a 26. Thanks man! Happy riding.
-
Definitely!! I thought I would miss my 120mm full suspension Trance, but the 29er is great at smoothing out all the little bumps. Love the climbing ability too!
