Well, I just purchased the Jeffsy based on the recommendation of this video. I’m really hoping I will enjoy it! Thanks!

Bought a jeffsy Core 2 in April $2750. It's amazing

[lifebehindbarsonemansstory]

That giant trance is an awesome bike so capable! Missed that one imo

[ktm_rider]

Devinci Marshall have a excellent price tag for the equipment !

I think the Scor 4060 is a nice and versatile trail bike. I also like the Revel Rascal.

[SylvainProov]

the new Jeffsy looks very nice. I really considered to buy one, but i ended with a SCOR 4060 ST GX ahahah

[stephenconcannon]

Great video. It’d be awesome if you did one for cross country categories.

I ride a 2017 Stumpjumper FSR Comp Carbon. It is a great bike!

[ChampionGaming]

My fav so far is the Orbea Occam H20 LT, with Deore drive

[faizanjamal]

Why does the frame on Giant Trance 29 2 outdated? Like whats wrong with it? I bought it two years ago and so far loving it.

Trail bikes are now the underrated ones unfortunately. Somehow everyone thinks they’re superstars on their enduros while dying on their 200m elevation rides lol

A very useful and practical topic. Thanks. I wish that you had at least briefly identified your #2 & #3 picks for each category. Viewers would learn more if you had included that extra useful detail. Keep up the good work. Surprised by the Stumpy being #1 for the high end. I own that bike (2023, S5, 200 lbs). It bobs like crazy in out-of-the-saddle climbing, even in a more locked-out setting. That is the bike's big weakness. I feel like the bike demands that I remain seated in climbs. Annoying. Not certain why it is this way with this bike.

Team Revel Rascal! ( and by that I mean team buying the Rascal V1 after V2 dropped) 😅

[fabianthomas]

Ive just got a 2005 kona stinky now im hooked 😊

[virginiascurti]

Just got a Marin Rift Zone a few months ago although I did upgrade, 142 to 148 rear and Sunrace to Shimano Linkglide Cassette, PNW Ranier dropper post and a Pike Select RC and a Marzochhi Bomber Air Metric Shock. I do not recommend you get it through Jenson though!

[Hawlkeye-ep]

I'm done with 29, idc if uts faster, 27.5 is so much more fun and durable

[RICARDOGARCIA-wrhx]

I have a polygon siskiu T6 and T8, which is the parent owner of Marin, and i love them.

[tobiasstamenkovic]

Brah, Jeffsy Core 2 is where its at. For like 300 bucks more you get far superior components that dont require you to swap stuff like the freebub down the line (which is 100 bucks in and of itself).

[andrewbrown]

The best deal that exist right now is the polygon t8 or t9. You can get the t8 for 1900 and the t9 for 2700. Both beat any other out there for price vs spec.

Just got a canyon spectral 29 cf 7. Fox suspension an carbon fiber frame for $2899.
