Just got mine today. I was super excited to build it with some friends. I first noticed they didn’t give me Maxxis tires (probably supply chain issue). But when I go to put in the front wheel, the spacer on the drive side is like too wide and won’t fit in between the fork. It is a weekend when writing this and Bikes Online Call Center isn’t open. I’ve already facetimed a professional bike mechanic and they said that the spacers are messed up or the center lock rotor(which i don’t have the tools to remove) is on the wrong side. He also said that there’s a chance that the lower of the fork got bent during transit, and i noticed where the fork was the box was damaged. i don’t know how this even happened, pretty much ruined my birthday. my mom spent nearly 3,000 usd on this bike and is not happy. hop in i get a replacement, a solution, a refund, or the money to pay for a fix.
how did it go?
Got mine yesterday in Lg. Changing the Maxxis overkill hi drag tires to Vittoria Arragos tubeless. PNw carbon bar. Pedals. Swap to 170mm cranks. All else will stay stock. Would have liked to hear your comments on the weight? Good video!
honestly, if they just do away with the 2-tone color scheme or at least give an option for a solid color, it would sweeten the deal even more.
A solid color would be cool. I do really like the two tone on this one.
I really like this color myself 👍🏼
Excellent Review Mike and a worthy upgrade from my T8 for sure!!
That was a nice looking orange e-bike you were riding at Fellows Lake this morning. Looking forward to your video and review. Aaron
It was really nice running into you today. Thanks for chatting it up with me on the trail. ✌🏻
Great to see it perform in Bentonville! Really sweet ride
Nice bike... From Indonesia..❤
I will get one of these when I can get the size small in 29in wheels.
Mine was delivered yesterday. Can’t wait to put it together.
It is unreal. Have fun.
They really should have speced minion dhf, dissector tyre combo or even double dissector.
I like the frames
Needs a Shimano chain - why spec KMC??
the KMC are not Siltec coated though and their Ti chains are expensive.
So that is a size large?Happen to know what the Rad is?Im at 32 so not sure if I need medium or large.Plan on ordering one soon .Great also👍🏼
I am 5'11" and this is a size large.
@@RunBikeMike ok was going by the new rad sizing technique of measuring the distance from center of crank and center of handlebar.Im at a 32”.
you didn't mention the wheelset. Have they shaved weight off the wheels?
The wheels on mine are the same as the T8 but with a microspline hub. Not any weight difference from what I can tell.
Polygon makes great bikes and the prices are unbelievable. I have 6 of them and the only thing I wish they would fix is the weight. My t8 is great but after about 10 miles in the woods I start to feel the weight. In my state we climb a lot of hills and that's what gets ya. It didn't look like you did much climbing and the t9 is even heavier
is that possible shipping to hong kong
I am not sure. You an go here and try to see if it lets you add your shipping info. bikesonline-usa.sjv.io/DKz0Mq
That bike is sick
I totally agree
Clearly amazing value, but at almost 16 kg (35 lbs) this is a very heavy bike. Great for descending, but for climbing and longer rides, this cannot be much fun.
Can you name a bike in the same price range which is better in this point of weight and long rides?
I‘m asking cause I‘m looking for that
Thats going to be hard. Just going tubeless will drop 1 lbs off the bike not many trails bike under $4k that are much below this one in weight. Also you might be surprised at how well this bike climbs.
@@McAl300 I cannot unless you find something on sale. Last year I bought the YT Izzo Core 3 (full carbon frame, full GX, 130mm Fox Performance Elite front and back with DT Swiss M1900 wheels) during Black Friday with CDN $3800 (USD $2750). The bike was just 29.3 lbs out of the box. If pedalling efficiency and climbing are important, it excels in those areas. I replaced the wheels with Elite Pro36 CF wheels (another CDN $800 😅) and now the bike is 27.5lbs. For me this represents a true trail bike. But I come from a XC race background and really like light, efficient bikes. Descending is less important since I am almost 62.
It’s morbidly obese. It weighs more than my 2023 alloy sentinel. For what you spend on upgrades (@least $2000) to get it to a respectable trail bike weight. You could just spend $4500 and get a carbon anything.
No and no
