The 8 Best Bikes of 2020

Help me please which is the best for power band torque for around £4000 and £5000 please

Hi Rob new to your chanel and just subscribed, fantastic films! Just wandering if you have tested the trek rail 7 or the whyte e150s as I’m looking at getting one or the other but can’t decide. Many thanks ��

You should have taken those reflectors off before weighting it.

Is rocscoe little sluggish on the road, because of plus tires? Have to pedal half hour to get to the forest..

Im trying to buy my first mtb willing to spend $2000-3000 USD what’s my best option? There’s too many options and im not an expert with bike parts yet.. Please help guys

Can you please do a best mountain bike under $400 for up hill and down hill riding

Hi! There´s a lot of grief about the Brose mag S motor and it´s beltdrive failure. I read a lot about this in different e-mtb forums. It´s a shame because I was very much looking to buy a Levo. Now there are those who says that Specialized finally have found the solution for this, do you know if that is true? And is there a way to check a bike to see if it has a fixed motor? I am tempted to buy one of the many Levos who are advertised and the seller oftes says that the bike has a new motor. In sweden it does not seem like the warranty for the bike follows over to the second owner. I fear that the lure of a second hand Levo will cost me more than I anticipate. What are your thought on this?

There all so overtly priced. Pro biking has become a rich man sport which I hate because there’s so many people who love the sport but can’t afford a decent bike. Blame the dummy’s who pay for them. They literally charge 50× what it cost to build them. I found this out from pro kayaks that cost a fortune but to build was 80× cheaper.lol. People with money will pay any price. I’d love to see a honest non greedy company sell a decent pro bike people can afford. Like the doller shave club but for bike’s.

Prime intense is way better! in my list
and 2ns is Specialized

How could you guys forget about BMC bike. It is without doubt the best mountain bike.

Giant should be on here, they have a nice affordable selection overall. That yeti is smooth asf though, ahh one day.

None of these bikes have motors on them. People aren’t really buying these conventional bikes any more.

Aren’t those internal storage hubs really like crumple zones in the frame??

My dad bought me all the 5 MTB that you have mentioned in the video. I wake up-it’s my dream!! xD

For the price of them they arent good bikes. I spent 2,500 on a 2020 virus escarpe vrs and it’s not available in stores yet and it’s better than every bike you’ve just showed lol

I have a giant anthem 2 2019, it’s designed as a XC trail bike. But in my opinion with the correct training, it’s great for descendant racing

Edit: I meant correct TUNING.

What would be the best bike for me if I was a beginner/intermediate and was looking for under $500

What do you recommend for a 50 year old American with a maximum price of $1,700?

Great review, I personally have the 2018 Roscoe 9 and recently upgraded it with hope pro 4 29 inch wheels and scram gx

I’ve got the 2019 Merida 140 600, is there much difference to the 2020 model?

I agree with the “extremely unaffordable” comments. I would also have to buy a large glass display case to keep the bike of choice in.

People who can afford these bikes probably don’t watch U TUBE

If the task was to pick the 5 least exiting bikes for 2020, then mission accomplished!

i have the 2020 roscoe 6. great bike in the roscoe line up. only upgrades i’m making is a dropper post and front suspension

Another great example of your thorough explanation of how it works, thanks

The Orbea looks terrible. Ugliest frame I’ve seen in a while.

giant trance 3 2020, kona process 134 or polygon siskiu t8? which is better

My Specialized Big Hit DH had a 24in rear wheel with 3in tire in 2002. That trend died soon after. Looks like nearly 20years later its making a comeback.

I got the 2020 Fuel Ex and I have fallen in love with this bike. Absolutely incredible.

I want to buy a hard tail this year, I don’t know what bikes brands are the best to invest in. Any recommendations?

Way over priced bikes raping the consumers. Frames made in China on $5000 bikes?

Gonna go with the fuel ex on this one. Although, those intense bikes are looking slick.

Are trail bikes with 140mm forks too much for the xc trails?

Bikes way too expensive for me, but love to hear and see the new tech

Plenty of good bikes out there. Just pick & choose! U can barely go wrong.

You need to be giving prices, cos believe it or not this is still relevant to the vast majority… gmbn do this! Why not you? this is an extremely lazy review.

Im about to buy my first full suspension bike and i don’t know of i’ll go with a trail bike or save a bit more and go enduro. Any advice?

Love the 79’er idea! Intense isn’t really alone on it tho. There are several companies doing it (YT Decoy). And FOES has been doing it forever (Mixer).

So cool to see more bike manufactures using in-frame storage. I wonder if you could cut on in your self.

i’m currently waiting for my 2019 cube stereo 120 race to arrive… looking for a “one bike for it all” with a 130mm rockshox sector fork and 120mm manitou radium expert rear. planning to do mainly flowtrails, some gnarlier singletrails, miles on flat ground but also the occasional jump up to 0,50 1,00m max.

are you familiar with the rockshox sektor (32mm stenchions, debonair, motioncontrol)? i’ve done some research and test rides but unfortunately haven’t found a in-depth test/rewiew on neither the 120 race nor the sektor fork. am still a little unsure if the 32mm stanchions can manage the gnarlier trials. cheers, mara����

What? Where’s the Yeti SB140 Doddy??? We’re talking about the hottest trail bikes of 2020 and you forgot this one?

You didn’t mention the Giant Trance 3…. I know where you live..!!!

Bought two of these today. My wife and I finally decided we couldn’t handle our “expensive big box bikes” any longer and ditched them for these Trek Roscoe 8’s. Almost bout the Stache but didn’t want to spend more than $2k for a bike when we were buying two. We took them on their first run already and obviously they are way far and above our GT Aggressor Pro’s. We bought the GT’s because we weren’t sure if we were going to really get into MTBing but now that we are, this was a logical choice to not stray too far from where we started but still put us on something that can kick trail-butt. It’s going to be a game changer for us.

why does it weigh practically the same as the marlin 5 when its 3 times more in $$?

Thank you so much for this awesome review!!! Can you also do a review on a BAKCOU e-bikes if possible? https://ebikegeneration.com/blogs/news/top-7-electric-hunting-bikes-for-2019

I would like to have any bike but am from Kenya we can’t afford one…so these bikes are the best so far that have seen and awesome there is none in kenya

is this bike ok
https://www.evanscycles.com/trek-marlin-5-2020-mountain-bike-EV369253
edit: also im 5 foot 2 at the moment so what size bike do i need

If anyone does want an electric bike then give my Moustache Samedi 27 Race 9 Carbon a viewing on Gumtree in England. Only done 115 miles on it and still in showroom condition with no scratches at all. Contact me through WhatsApp once you see my mobile number within the add and I can give you a video tour of the bike. Trust me you will be amazed. Offers welcome! https://www.e-bikeshop.co.uk/Moustache-Samedi-Race-9-Carbon-2018

Interesting just how much the XR3+ tread pattern differs from the XR3 team issue I have on my X-Cal. I guess they see that extra half inch or so and the designers go, “There’s so much room for activities!”

Rob…… You’ve done it again, good work mate… My mind is all over the shot on what bike to grab;) #kudos

How much feet is tall bike maybe 6 or 7 feet i reckon for this bike i am 1.86 m tall

Its funny that my “all mountain” has more travel than several of these “enduros”. All great bikes.

If only it had more travel like a proper trail bike. Love the colours and the value for money really makes this a tempting deal for the average mountain biker

I’ve been mountain biking on a very aggresive 26 inch wheel hardtail for just over 2 years now. I hate how small the wheels are and I just wish i had a full supension bike. If i were to upgrade now to a fullsuspension with a dropper post on a budget which specific bikes would you reccomend?

It’s strange that most of the models in this video copied the Transition SBG geometry but you didn’t mention the Transition Smuggler.

Did you know theres a hidden chain breaker and spare links in the tube on the handle bar of the kenevo?

Cool, when I win the lottery someday I can afford one of these:) In the meatime my Cube Acid Hybrid Pro 500 would have to suffice:)

Why is it they gotta make everything lighter I mean look how thin the frame is I bet I could snap that frame first jump plus trek is junk

Hi Robin,
I am your follower who writes you from Italy.
I wanted to know if you have seen or tried the BULLS SONIC EN2 2020 and what you think.
I intend to buy an Enduro Mtb with Bosch motor from around € 5000 and I would like a tip between Radon Render 9.0 and Bulls Sonic EN2.

Good day

I want that s-works enduro but in 27.5
Until then I will be riding my evil insurgent

If ill add a front derailleur with a 36/26 chainring. Will it it shift properly..

Damn, I was hoping for some around £500 lol, I wish I was rich where I could buy a bike for 5k. the most I’ve ever spent on something was my TTS and some of these bike nearly cost the same 0_0

Hi there. Iam from INDIA. Iam confused which to buy? Either GT verb ELITE 2018 of Trek X caliber 8 2020. Please guide. Thanks in advance.

I’ve just demoed a focus jam 6.9 it’s up for 4500 can I get better for money I was looking at the kona that is cheaper and has a 500w

2.6 inch tires are the sweet size. Very confidence inspiring bit lighter than plus. Thanks Trek. Specialized does that also with their stumpjumper of which I have. I even race on 2.6. Love the traction to weight ratio. Nice job

5500 pounds is only,guess it’s is if u are gay in Britain..

Got a say 29 ” wheels worry me I bought my 27.5 lapierre zesty 5 year ago and think it’s to big for me at 5ft 6 dont enjoy it as much as 26″ wheel downhill bike I had why they insist on going for massive wheels what about us shortys?

I don’t understand why e bikes are so expensive (even budget models). How come I can buy a remarkable motorcycle for the same money? Is it all about economies of scale?

Bike radar: we’re not going to include Ebikes in this mix

Ebikers: cries in pedal assist

6, Commencal 5, Giant 4, GT 3, yeti 2, SantaCruz 1, S-work ������

people like to knock maestro for having not changed in so long. look at porsche…

These cost THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS..LIKE 3-7K…NOPE..AIIGHT IMMA HEAD OUT

Never buy Trek
They do not support police and caved to libral media
Last Trek product I will ever buy
Support Police

This, the 2020 Roscoe 7 or 2020 Fuse Comp 27.5 for $1450?!?!? Any thoughts?

1.-Radon JAB 10.0 HD
2.YT Capra
3.Cubre Stereo HPC
4.Pivot MAch 5.5
5.Ibis Mojo HD5

The fact that two bikes are brit, no mention of YT Or Canyon, shows Serious partisan commentary from Radar. Come on guys be better.

This list is terrible lol. I would maybe ride 1 of these bikes.

7:29 yeah I dont think Kirt Voreis is going to be getting one anytime soon

Dear James, thank you for your Video, great Info, I’ve a question about Frame Size which would be better, because I am exactly between ML and L and I don’t know which one would fit better. Because I’m not experienced biker and 41 so my back prefers comfortable riding. I’m 84 Kg, 182cm tall and stride length is 83cm so I’m between ML and L Frame Size. Which one would you recommend with your expirience? Thank you

Is it just me or does the new s-works enduro use quite similar design as the old gt helion…
Don’t get me wrong, it works a charm but hardly new

“Top 5. 2020 Least Bang for Your Buck Enduro Bikes”. YT, Canyon and Commencal make way better specced bikes for around the same price point as these. I’d argue that a Vitus Sommet or Escarpe would outperform almost all of these for around $2k.

Just saying the sb 150 is better than literally every bike on this list.

I have a roscoe 8 2020 with maxis tyres will I need to change the rear hub?I’m also in the process of buying a supercaliber 9.7 my first full suspension, what do you think of that particular trek is it a wise buy?

Great informative review I’ve been riding Trek since 1995:) and my current bike a 6500 has been in use for 15 years alone. I am 6 foot 1 and thinking of getting this bike in XL. The sizing guide on the trek site says that I really need a L (19,5) but because I have long legs and importantly long gangly arms everything on the 6500 is set on the limit and it always felt a bit small. Whats your experience with the XL? does it feel like a big bike or is the sizing more on the small size?

I love my Whyte G-170. It climbs well (not technical, though); but, it is pure joy and fun to let loose down hill. It is stable, lively, playful and eats up everything thrown at it.

I just can’t get on the Specialized train. So damned expensive, and yeah I think they are overpriced. I feel like there are more affordable options that give just as good of a ride.

Pivot Firebird is better than all these. Cheaper, too when you factor in the 10 year warranty.

Bafang BBSHD kit beats all of them in performance for fraction of the cost. And the ability to choose any superb bike to go with it.

And if you really need enclosed frame (what’s with your priorities?) check out this beast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_vapoze3EQ

Mountain bikers are kinda getting soft with the huge travels. Like this up if your still riding a hardtail

Just got the Commencal Meta Tr 29 Signature what an absolute beast of a bike! Aggressive trail and dips into the enduro just in case! Fox Factory Kashima 36 Fork 150mm, DPX2 130 mm rear, Transfer Dropper! ��

Shouldn’t a mullet bike be 29 in the rear 27.5 front? With a mullet there’s more hair at the back. I don’t know why you’d want to ride something like that though.

This might be my next bike… coming from a Trek Superfly…

Bikes I missed!
Fezzari Cascade Peak
Orbea Occam H 30

Update: I have been made aware that CRC orders already have GST and import tax included in the price! “The prices of all items shipped to Australia, including those over AUD1,000, include Australian GST and, if applicable, Australian import duties.” Enjoy the savings!

What about the cube stereo 150 c:62 Race 29?
Relatively high weight, but looks like it has some good stuff on it, like a carbon frame��

Front wheel drive magnetic regenerative tracking no suspension best wheels frame like road bike moar

This year’s new Norco Sight would have been a great pick for your list also

What about the New am100s by Rockrider with a 150mm rockshox fork up front and 140mm of Travel on rear, NX eagle transmission and an pretty nice alluminium frame

the only thing is the specialized enduro costs more than my house

What is wrong with you guys do you ignore SCOTT for some reason or just out of spite. You even had TREK in there but the Scott GENIUS and even the spark would be on that list for sure but I don’t know what you don’t like about them.

I live a 45 minute drive from Whistler, British Columbia so these are the trails i’ll be hitting. What bike do you recommend for Whistler?

How about Cube Stereo 140 HPC Race?
https://www.99bikes.com.au/cube-stereo-140-hpc-race-27-5-16in-bluegrey-red-2020-1
$3499 AUD @ 99 bikes

I wanna get into this but I’m not sure what’s a good entry level bike I’m 5’5 and would like a bike that’s under $500 if there is any recommendations I’m all ears.

Did you know that you could buy 2 YT Capra pro race (which is the top model) for the same price as one s-works enduro.

I’d give ANYTHING for one of these bikes,…except money, that part I don’t have,..but anything else? Fine!

Where is calibre bossnut 2020? Probably the best value mountain bike ever created

Would a 10 Grand bike make me a better rider, NO!
Would a 10 Grand bike make me never want to take it outside in case it get nicked, YES!
Cheaper bikes are more fun and less nickable.

Which of these bikes would you reccomend
1. Canyon spectral al 6.0
2. Orbea occam h30
3. Canyon strive cf 5.0

What about the Scott genius 930? The twin lockout actually isn’t a gimmick after riding it I’m sold on getting one.

Of course these are top 5. These prices are well over the majority of peoples budget

Do u think the spectral 5.0 would be a bad buy for me as I’m not an aggressive trail rider. Really like the bike but has a lot of travel. Any advise appreciated

I’m looking a a Merida one forty should I get the 700 or 800 price is nearly the same

Hopeless reviews. Doesn’t say what range these bikes give on the tracks. Talks about slack geometry but not mileage!

Is there anymore bikes you could recommend in the 3000-4000 price category

any recommendation on someone between sizes on this? I’m 6’2″ with a 34″ inseam and not sure if i go with L or XL. Trek’s website even said i’m in the middle so just pick one.

The price you quote on the Mythique is incorrect, GST and import tax are already built into the price shown on Chain Reaction. The only additional cost is the freight around $150 freight at Wiggle is usually cheaper than CRC. I have just bought my 3rd bike from CRC-Wiggle this year so this info is correct. Newest bike landed today 2020 Nukeproof Reactor 290 Elite that I got with a 17% discount:)

Im thinking about buying a bianchi methanol CV Or a canyon NEURON AL young hero which one would you guys choose im thinking about the canyon beacause Its way more cheaper

The nukeproof reactor is a beast of a bike and shouldn’t go on the bottom of the list

I have a polygon hardtail and it hasn’t broken on me yet and I weigh 105kg. A polygon will be my choice for a full suss.

What’s the difference with these bikes and the short travel bikes?

What about Transition? They have scout and sentinel (new models) coming out this year

Review of Trek Roscoe 8 2020.  In the efforts of full disclosure, I had given this bike positive reviews when I first got it back in September of 2019. However, after getting my MTB skills back, I can say that this bike is not designed for serious trail riding.  It’s basically a hyped up weekend rider you can take on dirt roads.    Having been an avid MTBer back in the late 80s, and 90s on, I had taken a 10 year hiatus.  Not sure if I would still have my skills and not wanting to drop a ton on a full suspension, I opted for the Roscoe 8.  This was against my better judgment, as I had owned a Trek 930 (Rigid) and had promised myself that I’d never buy another Trek.    Unfortunately, with the lack of any objective reviews for the Roscoe 8 (most reviews online parrot the Trek’s advertising) and my failure to really study the dimensions on this bike, I made the same mistake again.  

What I like about the bike—it’s not bad to look at, and it comes tubeless “ready”;  you need to tape the rims.  It has a decent dropper post and front suspension lock-out.  What I dislike:

(1) the frame geometry, in my opinion, was designed so they could minimize shipping costs—I’m 5’11” and I opted for a large. The steep head tube angle and short wheel base give the rider the impression of riding a tall barstool on wheels. In addition, the plus tires unfortunately deform around any obstructions on the trial (as they’re designed), which further amplifies this bike’s tendency to “chock” its wheels on the smallest obstruction.  Any benefit from the 27.5 wheels is completely lost.  This thing loves to throw its rider over the bars.  Even on serious uphills,  the front tire is more inclined to “chock” rather than track like you would expect for a 27.5 wheel.  

(2) The plus size tires on this frame increase the instability of the ride.  I love plus size tires, but on this hard tail, when the shocks compress even minimally and the tire compresses—the rider experiences a super-steep head tube angle.  This requires hyper-vigilant scrutiny of the trail directly in-front for even the smallest obstructions.  I recently rode a friend’s Pivot on one of my practice trails that I ride almost daily.  I was confused that I didn’t recognize the surroundings, until I realized I didn’t have to stare at the trial 5’ in front of me. 

(3) Unfortunately, to combat the limitations of the frame geometry, the tires have to be inflated to higher pressure, and the front shock has to be stiffened.  One of the minor drawbacks of plus size tires there is the capacity to laterally rebound—and with this short wheelbase, the bike gets squirrelly and yaws.  On this bike, you don’t choose a line through a rock garden,  you just hang on and ping-pong through.

(4)  Trek advertised the 2020 Roscoe 8 being equipped with Maxxis Minions, although in very tiny lawyer-ease script they reserved the right to change any of the specifications.  The classic bait and switch and violá, mine came with Bontrager XR3.  THEY SUCK.  When encountering any moisture, the only gripping that occurs is the tire’s phenomenal ability to pack itself with mud and never let go.   Basically you wind up with muddy slicks.  In addition, the significant amount of knobby surface in relation to the contour of the tire results in its inability grab on to any uneven surface. When climbing over rocks or roots, you’ll inevitably hear the Bontrager “fart,” as the tire rapidly looses traction and  spins uncontrolled over the obstruction, making a “strawberry” sound.  These tires are great for dirt roads and smooth trails, but they can’t cut any serious off-road, and have to be replaced—right out of the box. 

(5) Miscellaneous stuff:  The steep seat-tube angle and short chain stay do not make this bike a great climber. You really have to do some world class gymnastics on this thing to try to keep the front-end down, enough weight on the back tire to keep from loosing tractions, and still maintain balance and pedaling geometry.  I was surprised to learn that this thing doesn’t have sealed on the head tube—it has an old fashion bearing race like my first Huffy banana seat.  I found out because dirt got into it and I had to disassemble it and repack it with grease—super fun!  Lastly, the seat sucks—the front is pointy enough to do double duty as a weapon.  This gives it the uncanny ability to skewer and grip your riding-shorts when you stand up on the pedals (luckily, I wear padded underwear, so I haven’t mooned anyone…  well, not fully.)

I’m not trying to be a buzz kill—if you have a Roscoe and you like it, more power to you.  However,  I wish there were more objective reviews online before I bought mine; in my opinion, it’s a good solid entry level bike, but it’s not going to provide a stable and adequate MTB platform for a decent rider looking to ride moderately challenging terrain.  I wish I had waited and saved up for a better bike (not a Trek).

I’ve had mine for 2 weeks. Absolutely love it! Eventually I’m going to get a full squish as well but for the type of riding I do now, this beast is great

What would go in your Top 5 2020 Mountain Bike list? Let us know in the comments!

I bought the Giant Reign but on 27.5″ version and it’s awesome

I just bought this. I immediately upgraded to a raceface atlas stem, 780 raceface carbon bar, chromag contact peddles.

Should I buy a Swiss rear hub or hope 4? Would I stay with the 141 or? Some feed back would be sweet:) I have a diety crankset I may put on as well.

I love my 2020 roscoe 8 its a beast it climbs so good an easy, might do a video on a trail sometime

I’m giggly like a school girl waiting for my test ride on that beaut.������

In today’s world who even uses quick releases instead of thru axles?

they all look the same to me. just a few minor changes and name.

This would be my first bike, I am looking to get this or a verve 3. This has the advantage on trails but how would this do against the verve 3 speed wise?

Does it share the same frame with the x caliber? Because the fork angle is like 2 degrees different between them…

I’m a confirmed Trek lover and I love my 2015 Trek Fuel EX 9.8, much upgraded and lightened, weighing in at a tad under 23lbs all up. Y’know, I can’t help but think that a lot of the so called ‘improvements’ on the 2020 (and recent) bikes are for improvements’ sake; the market and buyers want ‘improvements’. The jury really is out on the knock block ( I have it on a Powerfly LT 7), and how far is the ‘fashion’ of slackening the head angle going to go? Having a more upright seat angle really achieves very little (apart from effectively increase reach) if, as you should do, set your seat position correctly for efficient power transfer and that is NOT sitting over the BB! In practise, one rarely has to move forwards on the saddle to ‘help climbing’ unless it is VERY steep. In which case, just do that, move forwards on the saddle for the duration of that short steep climb. I mean, you’re not going to topple over backwards or lose traction on even pretty steep climbs by sitting in the efficient saddle position, ie not over the BB. In any case, why adjust a saddle position to account for what is, in truth (we’re talking VERY steep climbs here) a very minor part of your ride? Much better to enjoy an efficient seating position for the other 95% of your ride. That’s a riding position that allows your glutes to work properly plus other well proven biometric effects. For reference, seat position: Sitting on the bike, position one foot forwards so the crank is parallel to the floor at 3 o’clock. Hold a length of string with a weight on the end at the front of your knee. The string should drop down in line with the pedal axle. So, manufacturers can increase or decrease the seat angle as much as they like to follow fashion or for nebulous ‘gains’, but that’s how it should be done; the seat angle should NOT dictate saddle fore and aft position, biometrics does that.

I just got a 2020 Roscoe 6 and love it, I went with the 6 because I’m just getting back into riding and I knew I’d be upgrading parts as I progress. I come from a bmx background and have already upgraded the seat and post to a pivotal setup (stranger tie dye seat), odyssey twisted PC pedals (pink and black swirl), and sunday Jake Seeley hand grips (pink and black swirl). The next upgrade will be a crank set with an external bottom bracket. I absolutely love this bike.

If you had to pick between the specialized fuse comp or this trek roscoe 8 which would you choose? I’m going back and forth between the two!

Hmm. Banshee, Yeti, Nicolai, Evil, Knolly, Canfield Brothers, Transition, Santa Cruz, Mondraker, Ibis, Intense. Hmm.

For the huge amount of money you pay for MTB’s, it’s really upsetting to see companies who don’t grind down and smoothen out the welds. Cannondale, YT and Focus are some of the brands that sand down the welds for a cleaner look.

I admire the quality and price affordability (any bike over a $grand, is just not worth-it), of #NukeproofBikes. But with a website that takes forever to load and is “Not secure,” I avoid the purchasing-the-brand. Why these popular bike companies, have un-secured/unreliable sites, is just laziness and stupidity.

Selling QR frames in 2020 for a premium brand price is just stupid. There are so many brands that offer better geometry and real boost 148/12 through axle, for the same parts and maybe even lower price, it’s not even funny.

I have been looking at Plus Hardtails myself and have test ridden several, the Roscoe 8 is definitely at the top of my list. I know little “parking lot” rides don’t do justice, but I was able to ride grassy areas, curbs (I used them like skinnies), and levees/banks on most of the Hardtails, but I found that the Trek was definitely a better handling and fit. I hope to be purchasing a Trek Roscoe 8 in the next month.

20 seconds in, pictures of bikes, if you like this content, like subscribe

Wait, there was this one bike, I can’t remember the name(similar to you guys), as it wasn’t even casually mentioned in this video. I think it won the ENDURO World Series championship like, I don’t know, THREE years in a row…. What was the name of that bike? Man, I can’t think of it…. smh.

I just bought the inaugural 2018 on Craigslist what sacrifices did I settle for in getting the 2018?
It’s the color of an Orange Crush can, kind of growing on me being in Colorado, near enough to Denver.
Anyone know what the new cost was?

Is this worth it compared to the Roscoe 7? Thinking of buying 1 of em.i just like the paintjob waaay more then the Roscoe 8.

Can we please just mention how stupid of an idea it was to put a QR on this!!? A thru-axle would’ve suited this farrrrrrr more and allowed for more customization and getting beaten down tracks.

Not to bring politics here but it is refreshing to start seeing black mountain bikers in these videos. Please, keep it up!

So not only do Americans refuse to prenounce aluminium correctly but you’s are even spelling it wrong now! ���� Clowns

What the hell is wrong with the e-bike market? 5-10 thousand euros for a decent ebike is just ridiculous. The prices should be like 50% lower.

Do you think buying a 27.5″ bike in 2020 is a good idea? I see that even Sam Hills is riding a 29″. I am not a pro, but for sure what the pros ride is going to influence the market.

Literally any bike over like $500 is good. You’ll barely even notice a difference if you’re a good rider.

i want the 2018 specialized enduro comp. 160 to 170 mm of travel

Scott’s already released a mullet bike long before the one in your video.

This looks like they’ve gone way over to trail and away from XC with it. Those tires are huge. It’s really not all around anymore. The weight is a pound heavier than my 2014 EX8. All that is fine but it’s just a different philosophy. No way this bike is faster on a smoother XC style trail. That’s why they also sell the Top Fuel 8 which is more like my 2014 bike.

Hey thats my size, can you post it over to Australia? My 2019 remedy 7 needs a little brother.

Loved the weight check, would put the camera on a tripod, or hang it on gorillapod to use both hands on the scale. Them scales can be really funky when you don’t lift really fast and keep your hands steady.

quick question, what should i choose? Merida One Forty 600 2020 or Merida One forty 700 2019? Both are at the same pricing at this moment in my country, Pls. Help me, thanks

What about Zerode? Best rear suspension anywhere https://youtu.be/f46cBpQa0ds

Hello everyone,
I have been dreaming about getting into mount biking for so long but as a father of 3 little kids even with a 2 jobs I just haven’t been able to afford one of those high end bikes. If anyone can please help me and maybe donate there old bike or some parts of a bike so that I can eventually put together my first bike or something I would be so so so amazingly super turbo happy. I apologize so much for being honest here but this is my last hope.
Greetings from Calgary
Thank you.

Great video, James. It gave me a thorough view of the bike as if I was going over it myself.:D
