Yo nice video man, I got the same bike but its still stock tho
Reasons not to get the Stoic 2 includes: Very few colour selections I think the black and white option is a bit on the boring side, would prefer something more fun, bike frame triangle too small so can not even fit 2 water bottles in there and can not fit a proper size battery there in case I ever wanted to do a e-bike conversion on it, no attachment points on the frame for stuff like kickstand, bike rack or even proper mudguards. So since I also want my bike to function in city life this one is not for me.
This bike is absolutely not made for the things you’ve listed here, this is a semi hardcore trail/all mountain Hardtail. Kick stands and racks do not belong on this frame it sounds like you need more of a cross country style bike that would fit your criteria
How does it go uphill? Is it also good in city rides? I want a versatile mtb that I can ride smooth uphills, city pavements, a semi beach-ish trail and rocky, steeper downhills
I'm definetely inteterested in the Stoic 2 (I'll probably buy the 3 if it'll be on sale soon). The only thing I'm not sure about is the size. I'm just a tad bit over 6ft, and you said you were 5,11 which is close, so would an M or an L fit better?
Hey...did you get one? Which size? I'm 6'1"ish and can't decide on M or L
What do ypu think about new color of stoic 2? The black one?
Hi man im thinking about buying stoic 2 what to do think about the gears? Never had 1/10 gears ratio soo are they similat to smth like 3/7?
The 1x10 is infinitely better for most people imo 1x systems are simply put just better and simpler to use as well as maintain, my previous bike i had setup as a 1x8 and it was pretty solid but i think 1x 9/10 is really the sweet spot you get a nice wide range of gears without a lot of big jumps in the gearing
@@purpleRider05 soo in terms of possible speed are they similar to 3/7? Im pretty sure im gonna get it and the only minus is the delivery time
@@skitif5072 you cant exactly do a direct comparison. but you wont have any issue with any modern drivetrain with a decent gearing range. go ahead and order the bike fi you can its on sale for an amazing price right now!!
@@purpleRider05 i knooow that was pretty much my only concern so thank you man still a month of waiting for a bike
@@purpleRider05 Why did you stop uploading?
can you link your dropper?
Brand X ascend on wiggle, mines the 150mm however the 170mm would fit just as well
How do you get the cable up into the seat tube? Just got the same dropper post, feels like there's something in the way as I try feed the line into the seat tube, from underneath? 🤦🤷
i pulled it out of the bottom hole in the frame and then just shoved it up the seat tube
if i am 6.2 what size should i take
atleast a large, canyon has a sizing calculator on the website just put in your height and inner leg lenth
I just ordered the Stoic 2 during the trail sale, got it for $899 plus tax and shipping. That’s $1070 out the door. I’m using the savings to put a Marzocchi bomber and a couple other upgrades. It’s going to be less than the 4, with parts I choose.
I want this bike but in 27.5... considering this one or the san quentin 2.
Small size and under is 27.5 the San Quentin 2 is definitely a really good option aswell, The whyte 900 series hardtails are also 27.5
Diamondback syncr is also 27.5 however it’s a bit outdated
Trying to decide between the stoic2 or the trek roscoe7 for my 12 year old.
The Roscoe 7 comes with better parts and is also a lot lighter as long as the price isn’t an issue it’s definitely the better choice
Possibly the dopest looking bike I've ever seen
Ordered the 2 myself today aswell. The frame is identical to the 3 and 4. Just going to get upgrades along as I go 🎉
i wish they had all the colors available for the different tiers the 4 is a much better value but the white frame just looks so good
@@purpleRider05 oh yeah ,I agree completely!
Hi, may i know the pedal that u r using? Any brand or link that can be shared?
They are the alaudark pedals you can get them on Amazon for about $30usd
What is your inseam? I'm potentially gonna buy this same bike used and I have around a 30 inch inseam. Normally ride a 175mm crank on a 26 inch 93 Specialized Rockhopper....cracked headtube now...and don't wanna get a bike that is TOO big compared to what I was used to.
the stoic has a really low stand over height my inseam is about 31 inches roughly. I went with a medium to have a more playful bike. although I could have gone with a large if I wanted to
@@purpleRider05 I'm torn between this used bike and a Giordano Intrepid....which I'll need to upgrade stuff for sure. Thanks for the quick response!
What brand are the gears?
weight?
Stock it’s about 32lbs but with my setup I’m probably closer to 34
Would this bike be right on street riding and some flowie trails?
That’s usually what I ride actually it does really well it’s just a bit heavy especially poppping it up to do wheelies but I really like it
@@purpleRider05 Thank you for your fast response, I was also looking at the Grand Canyon thinking that might be even better for my riding
@@strix2035 the Grand Canyon is a bit more of an shorter travel xc than a hardcore trail bike, so if you don’t plan on doing any jumps, drops, stairs stuff like that go with the Grand Canyon
I have a medium Stoic 2 as well and I'm 5'8". I added a Fusion X dropper 150mm. The bike shreds, but I do wish I could try a size small frame as maybe it'd feel more playful for me.
Yep that' the reason i went for a medium instead of large so it'd be more playful, the small also has 27.5 wheels on it so it probably would be more playful however definitely too small for me
Nice GT - thanks for sharing the upgrades you've made. Thus far I've upgraded the pedals and seat, with more to come.
It’s a great beginner bike I hope it serves you well! Happy upgrading
what about the tires, do they have inner tube or tubeless
they are tubeless ready but come with tubes as stock
how many mm is it offset on the fork
not sure but you might be able to look it up un suntours website
51 mm
Prettey certain that’s a Brand X Ascend 02 dropper, nice upgrades! Also, remove the dork disc🧐
i need to remove it ive just been too lazy lol
Stoic is looking great! 😁😁😁
Just wait till I get the purple bars on it 😳
@@purpleRider05 Oh baby!!!
Like the purple! It makes sense for bikes to not come with pedals, everyone has their own preference. Ive used those grips, there not bad If your mixing brake parts remember mt200 uses a different part that pesses into the hose than the Deore. Not a big deal, but you need to use the right parts
mine did not come with clear lens
what about the tires, are they tubeless?
I believe it is tubeless ready so all you’ll need is valves and sealant if you want to set it up tubeless
This is insane how cheap this bike is. On Polish site its 750$ and I'm speechless. Cheapest alternative is a damn San Quentin 1!
Yeah I was looking at a san quentin before this bike and the stoic is sooo much of a better deal
Can you review the 5$ becike glasses from Amazon
for 5$ i would just get some basic safety glasses from
Is the $2000 stoic worth the upgrade?
if you like the color and can afford it its 1000% a better deal it has a MUCH better fork a dropper better cranks and 4 piston brakes
Love the stoic 4, all versions have all there advantages but all have the same frame, makes it a great base to start with. Buy and enjoy.
How much you paid for this bike.Fter this answer my question.i will answer you on my bike same as your.mine is 2022.
i got mine in 2018 when it was onsale for $320

How do you like the 29s compared to 27.5??
They definitely feel alot taller and a bit heavier than 27.5 but they ride soo much smoother
Received my stoic 4 3 days ago, great package and been out and completely loving it. Had sent it down any trails yet but rode grass pathways and was great. Canyon service was brilliant and delivery was spot on. Easy to assemble and have changed the grips and saddle to suit me. Iam 6”7” and find it easy to ride, will find out how it handles next week on the trails. Great bike would highly recommend.
Definitely get it out on some trails soon! I probably would've gotten the 3 if it was available when I got mine
I've beeen looking on these Stoic "family" bikes for some time and I really really want one of them. They look amazing, all 3 versions, and they are very good at price/performance I would say
Last year I traded my Grand Canyon for a Stoic 2 and couldn't have been happier. I'm 6'1 and got a large, I immediately felt much better on the Stoic than my Grand Canyon. (reach was a bit shorter, which relieved my back 😉) Coming out of the box I changed the drivetrain to a Microshift Advent-X (10-48), I needed a bit more range and it is a nice budget drivetrain. Then the dropper post, ODI grips, some decent pedals and made everything tubeless. I gave my fork a service at the start of the season. I cleaned an regreased everything, put some foam rings (there aren't any in...) and added a bit more oil in the damper (went from 5ml to 10). Now it feels a lot smoother than before. 😊 Planned upgades: Brakes!! Next upgrade will be Magura MT5's and in the long run I'll be looking for a 150mm fork.
what foam rings did you use? i may add some to my fork
I think you got a real bang for your buck...
I'm 6'2" and it recommends a large? Does that sound right ? I figured it was gonna recommend a XL.
a large will probably fit you quite well and itll be more fun to throw around
@@purpleRider05 thank you Sir!! Have yet to purchase a mtb. Just trying to figure out some of my best options for around this price point
Hello Cal? Have you finally got a Stoic? If yes was wondering what size, because I am 6'2" and 93 cm inseam and in between L and XL. The site recommends L...
In Germany it's only 899 lmao
Nice vid, how about a 5'6" guy for a medium-sized frame will it fit nicely? Tia
I would probably go with the small, it will be more maneuverable with a smaller frame and 27.5 wheels
@@purpleRider05 thanks! I forgot to tell that i ride i marin sq in medium but still planning to get like this one.. Other thoughts for references
@@joserizal877 I've heard the san Quentin's run a bit small since they are made to be more playful, I have a younger friend who's ridden my stoic hes about 5'1" I think? The stoic had a very good standoger height so it's mostly down to if you want a larger more stable bike or smaller more playful one
@@purpleRider05 sounds very informative, are there any issues between your friends inseam vs toptube? I hope the stand over height of your friend with your frame is fine?
@@joserizal877 I believe it was a little tight for him but very much usable for the street wheely rides we were doing, on a trail I'd probably want him on a small frame

How can you call a 1199$ A cheap bike 😂
It's a low end mid tier bike, however it's the one of the cheapest trail/all mountain hardtails
To be honest it isn’t cheep but it’s not really expensive as mtb’s go? But as hardcore hardtails go its a great package for the money. If you compare this to your 250 price bikes a huge difference will be felt on the trails
I have one too... And to a high degree I would agree with @MTB Alpine County. The bike seems like a budget friendly durable option, no super light weight, no fancy additionals. Frame has a little messy welds (made in Cambodia...). To a high degree Pinkbike's review put some good highlights on the purchase one does; dropper is an absolute need to get the versatility of such a hardtail. I hated the grips, so ODI or Renthal came to the rescue. Then proper pedals & Brand-X dropper. Then a 11-46 cassette, just in case... Meaning, the budget bike WILL rack up some additional cost immediately to be usable as an "out of the box" bike. Think of it, why would you not just start off with the bits making more sense, than to buy twice? Well, availability. I was super lucky and fetched one just before Christmas, arriving within a week. So if this platform with a few essential add-ons is enough (like for me, I just wanted to go a bit more "capable simplicity" since having a 10 year old Fuel EX), it does so just fine. If you really drool on a bit more hairy parts, I believe budget wise it only makes sense if they too are "budget friendly". For me I see Ragley actually becoming more of an option, when considering the Bomber Z2 fork and MT500 brakes on their Big Al versus what I have had to do with the Stoic 2. Two pointers & one observation: the 30 toothed front seems to run out of speed already on basic "commuting" + the MT200s and Resin pads only really isn't much. I am 6'3 (190cm) and was guided to a Large bike - maybe it is because of the long cockpit Big Sur and Fuel EX as comparison, but I cannot help to feel it is a bit short. My changes: Brand X dropper, NS bikes platform pedals, Renthal lock-on grips, Maxxis Ikon tan walls as allrounders for ashalt, gravel and destination trail usage. Garmin 1030 plus. Future changes: Evan's MTB showcased the possibility with Marzocchi Bomber Z2 140mm 1:1 upgrade, but ideally I'd get a Z1 150-160mm and better brakes, alike Magura MT5. you can see some shots of it here: instagram.com/wauola
If you could buy again, would you pick the xl size frame?
Great video! I’m trying to decide between the stoic 2 and fezzari wasatch peak
5'11 and a medium fits you well? These must run big
Some people size up and they are fine but I had ridden a couple other large 29er bikes before and they felt a bit big for me
@@purpleRider05 interesting. I'll definitely have to sit on this one before buying. I am 5'8 and was looking at a medium
@@ItsMeHammie someone else said they were 5'9" and got a large and it fit fine but for your height id probably go for the medium, keep in mind a smaller frame will be a bit more playful that's part of the reason i didn't size up
throw on a x fusion manic post for 150 with a lever and the dropper and I guess you are set
where did you find it for 150?
I got one. Put it straight into the best of rough on New England. I'm 5'9 and a large was perfect. I manually adjusted the seat post as necessary. This bike needs a dropper. Derailleur hanger is soft. I'm Sram guy and will swap out. Brakes work ok for light duty. Fork is no where near my spec. But overall I had a great time beating it out of the box. I recommend on the 9er bigger tires. 27.5 go as big as you can. ALSO the stock 9er is not TR. Bummer. I would gave gotten the 4 but not available at the time. But if your an upgrade junky like me, have fun!💪🤟🍺
Hello, I'm 5'8 do you think a medium would be good for me? According to the size guide on the website it tells me I should get a small. But when I've bought other bikes at bike shops they have always put me on a medium sometimes they even try to put me on a large. I was wanting to get a medium, but the size guide is confusing me
Very nice snag man!!!!
Beautiful video enjoyed watching always stay connected 💙
