These are my recommendations and hopefully after watching this, you can make an educated purchase decision and get the most value for your money. The down country bikes on this list are not the cheapest bikes out there but in my experience, if you go too cheap, you end up wasting your money.

I went with the Polygon Siskiu T8 for one big reason: at the time it was $300 more, but the Fox 34 by itself was a $500 upgrade from the Recon on the T7. Absolute no brainer on that one. 😁 A couple volume spacers, a faster rear tire, some tubeless valves, smaller chainring, and my own pedals are all I've done to my gorgeous purple beast. 🤘🤘

I expected to see my bike in the list but I did NOT expect it to be #1! I picked up the Polygon T7 back in March with zero regrets! This bike is amazing!!!

I got a rift zone 1 last week. Already put at least 15 miles on it and zero problems, other than a slightly hard seat. I got mine at a local shop for only $1700, including $70 pedals and taxes.

I considered the Spectral 125 but wanted more rear travel....got a Canyon Spectral 29 AL6 and have been loving it! So much bike for the money

[renenavarro]

Ton of work goes into these videos. Appreciate it bud, keep up the good work

[hokage]

Canyon is having a crazy sale, just picked up a spectral 125 Al 6 for 2300, regular is 3500$ usd, way too excited for it to get here 🤟🏻

One of the most underrated YouTubers I’ve watched!! Great video

[danielperelman]

The polygon t8 is the best value. The suspension components are great. The drive train is great. Only upgrades needed are better rotors and metallic pads and the bike is perfect.

i picked up the d7 a few months ago, nice to see it on the list. great video, bro.

[jseski]

I picked up the T8...absolutely love it. It's a great ride at a great price. Other contenders for that top spot would be Ibis Ripley AF & the Fezzari Adobe Peak, but I went w/the Polygon T8, so far no regrets. (I have made a few changes for more personal preference: seat, pedals, grips; but the build kit was solid, no issues)

[crewzillakelly]

Thank you for the information you provide I really enjoyed your videos. Your videos are definitely helping me making the decision making process to get my hands on one of these awesome machines

[donnovicki]

I've had my Polygon T8 since Oct of 20 and love it. The components are mostly SLX, with the exception of the brakes which are Tektro 4 piston. I've never had a problem stopping and I've never had a problem with the chain like some folks, which makes me happy. Oh yea when it came out I jumped on it and paid 2299.00, I see it's now up to 2699.00 but even at that it's well worth it.

[ledermanrobert]

Nice vid! Would be cool if you included the weight out of the box. Keep up the good work! 💪

[maitai]

Wow…lots and lots of informations ! Will make bike shopping for everyone much easier!
Great video!

[spacecowboy]

thanks so much for the help - We relocated to North Alabama and my 11 speed Epic didn't have enough gear or tire to take advantage to the steep, rocky, and rooty riding around here. I picked up a new Polygon Siskiu T8 for me an found a lightly used Marin Rift Zone 2 for my wife. I'll report back in as we ride them more. This video did a good job of explaining the geometry and components. The road tests were also very helpful. By the way from what I can tell the new 12 speed Shimano Deore and better groupsets perform really well. I wasn't a fan of the 10 speed Deore, but the new 12 sped stuff is "bang on" fantastic. Next I need to read up on doing the tubeless conversion and setting up the shocks. - good times!

Commencal also uses 6066 aluminum for the their frames. It's stronger than the 6061 aluminum that other bike manufacturers use.

[benjamin]

I got the Kona 134, and it really is good in any trail.

After getting my RM slayer stolen out of my house, I had to get a budget bike, so I choose the Marshall from Devinci . It’s pretty sad we have to lock our bikes up inside our house these days .
