Riding My Favorite Hometown Trail on My Canyon Stoic!!

I took my SICK Canyon Stoic 2 Hardtail MTB "back home" to my one of my favorite trails - Silver Lake Techy Side and KD Line at Silver Lake County Park - and it was AWESOME! I SENT IT on some fun jumps and features, and some loose descents, and just had a blast riding my bike!
My name's Tyler and I love mountain biking! I live in the Midwest United States (not typically known for great MTB riding) and I want people to know that us riders here in the Midwest are awesome too! We don't need huge downhill trails to have a good time! I just got a brand new 2021 Canyon Stoic 2, and this bike has got to be the best hardtail of the year! At least for the price. So I'd at least say the best budget-friendly hardtail of the year! I'm stoked to be able to share it with you guys. I'm also stoked to ride it this summer and let you guys know how it goes!
If you enjoyed this video free to like, comment, and subscribe. I really like making these videos and would be so pumped if the channel grew!
If you live in Southwest Michigan/Northwest Indiana (or really anywhere in the Midwest) let me know. I’d love to hear about any awesome mountain bike spots that you know of.
Cheers!
Tyler

Very good video:)

[@MidwestMountainBike]

Thanks so much bro! 🤙

Hey Tyler!! What is your opinion about the gear ratio on the stoic 2? Is it okay for climbing? and what about the bike's top speed?

[@MidwestMountainBike]

Hey Raúl, thanks for watching bro! Honestly I think the gear ratio is good for the money. I’ve ridden my bro’s bike with a huge 12sp cassette too and it was obviously nicer, but it also was way pricier. So yea I think it’s totally fine. Top speed is amazing for anything relatively smooth! I fly past 27.5 bikes down those types of trails. I haven’t been as fast on super chunky stuff, but that could just be my lack of skill. 😆

@@MidwestMountainBike Hi, amazing video! As a follow up question: what is the hardest climbing you've done? My last bike has a Shimano Altus 3*9 and I don't know if 1*10 is an up or downgrade. Thanks!
