That bike looks way better than other XC bikes as of late and the geo is more capable as well. Well done YETI.

Most days I don’t wish I were a dentist but when I see a yeti I definitely reconsider.

[JaredHoff]

Great review Jared. XC bikes are so capable these days. I’m an enduro bro at heart, but need to try out one of these new XC race rigs…

[JB]

Beautiful bike.
Good call Liam ditching the spandex! Lol Didn't know he had THAT many tattoos! That's dope ✌🏼

[htonmusic]

you say you would beef up the tyres what combo would you go?

i have a giant trance with a similar travel and geometry and it came with minion dhf + aggressor which tbh, was ridiculous. I swapped to teravail honcho + ehline but now looking at different tyres again.

Now I can carry the switchinfinitythingy in my jersey pocket! Yay!

[coreymclernon]

The old asr-c was my favorite! Wore out the pivots.

[hardmtnbiker]

You mentioned beef it up, will it fit aggressive 2.5” tires?

[trailpimp]

Will this bike work on Party Wave at Snow Summit?

[Artiscrafty]

Dude I really liked your review! Honestly a lot of guys who review just go to techy and shit. I really want a lite weight fun XC/trail bike and my Pivot 5.5 which is a great bike but it sort sucks on the climbs. Front end gets squirrel y like i think its to much seat post angle my ass if over the back tire on even moderate climbs. Do you think this bike is dope?

[Smock]

Off topic for this video but where is the comparison for rear shox. Could make multiple videos due to big 3 brands. Budget to mid level to height for fox, rock, sun rear shox. Also coil if they have them. See many for front forks but not many good comparison for rear.

Nice review; the ASR was discontinued in 2017, I think. Not "20 years ago".

[billstovall]

OK review...the ASR has not been gone for 20 years. Yeti made a 2015-2017 version of the ASR that was pretty good.

[benjy]

115 rear, 120 front, 66.5 head angle, and they call it a cross country bike, my 2019 norco fluid has 120 rear, 130 front, and a 66.5 head angle, and its called a trail bike, so I guess I'm now riding double blacks at my local bike park on a cross country bike?

[MrBig]

Honest question, why do people care so much about other people wearing spandex?

[hiskoolfunf]

Isn’t this just a rebranded specialized epic evo?

[richcole]

Why is this Yeti only 110 rear travel? Would like to hear why Yeti didn't join the progressive trend to go 120 rear.
Other than the fact that they already have the SB 120, but that's a different beast (a trail bike)

[danielpatino]

Isn't this exactly the same as the SPECIALIZED EPIC 8? this and the epic look like twin brothers from different

[sheen]

Nice machine. What a shame it does not have internal storage :(

[natsrium]

Why does it look like santa cruz blur?
