    Another upgrade you should consider is adding a dropper post. It will totally transform your rides on trails and your bike looks to already have the internal cable routing holes to run one. It's one of the first upgrades I make to a trail bike.

      Dropper post is definitely a priority on my list

    a lovely looking bike - I have the yellow/ green version as in the uk we don't have the version you have. I'm new to biking again after many years away and looking forward to it again. Bikes have really changed since my last mountain bike about 22 years ago !

      The new technology makes a huge difference. I can’t believe I was missing out all of these months I’ve been riding. But I’m excited to see what this bike Can do for me

      Mike, I got the same as you last August. I absolutely love it. I'd never heard of Polygon until last year and now feel part of a special club that loves the brand. I use it daily for going to work and at least twice a week local kids comment "nice bike".

    Nice video. I was wondering how tall you are and what made you decide on 27.5? I really like the all purple limited edition xtrada 7 they had last year. Unfortunately I wasn't following this brand until recently.

    • @offdaystv
      @offdaystv  Před 2 lety +2

      I’m 5’10 and I chose 27.5 because I did a Facebook poll and majority of people voted 27.5. They said 29 is faster and 27.5 is more agile.

  • @JeffRevell
    @JeffRevell Před 2 lety +3

    I think you will come to find that the wide handlebars give you a much more stable steering platform. Narrow bars are way too twitchy on trails so you want that stability when you are bombing through curves over roots and rocks. If they still feel too wide, get yourself a cheap pipe cutter from the hardware store and knock a few centimeters off each end. They are made to be cut down.

    • @offdaystv
      @offdaystv  Před 2 lety

      Im starting to get used to the wide bars. For jumping and turns it feels a lot more comfortable

    • @GrahamDixonUK
      @GrahamDixonUK Před 2 lety +1

      It took me a couple of weeks to get used to the bar width (2021 Xtrada 7). My old bike feels like a toy now.

      To a degree. I’ve been doing jumps and rock gardens just fine. For larger drops I’d probably say a full suspension would be better but so far I haven’t really come across anything that this bike couldn’t do
