- In this video I compare and contrast the 3 bikes in the GT Aggressor range with one another, covering all the similarities and differences like the suspension forks, frames, drivetrains, and brakes, to hopefully help you decide which bike is the best for you! This video covers the GT Aggressor Sport, Aggressor Comp, and Aggressor Expert.

GT's website is surprisingly bad, we agree. I can't say much about these models, but I can say that I have absolutely abused my Aggressor Pro for 2 years now and that frame is rock solid.
I’m never leaving here. This is the very best Bike channel ever made.
I’m flattered hahaha thank you!!!
Thanks for the comparison breakdown. Enjoyed the video.
You’re welcome!!
I brought the GT Aggressor Expert 29er in September. I absolutely love it. Take it everywhere and use it for everything. I swapped the peddles for a metal set. Can’t fault it so far.
Nice!!
Yep I have a GT agressor and it’s amazing. I use mine every day.
Love your work dude! Very informative
Thank you!
Great video as always! I was wondering if you could maybe do a comparison on treks different full-sus bikes. Also, if you have any of them in your shop, maybe show them irl!
I'll consider those! Usually we don't have too many of the more expensive models since people in Sacramento prefer road and hybrid bikes a lot more, but every now and then we do so hopefully I can do an in person comparison eventually!
Great video. You should do a video on the gt avalanche lineup next.
Yes, please.
I will!
Man this helped a lot thanks
Welcome!
Excellent video thank you. You make choosing simple.
Thank you!! :)
I’m definitely thinking of buying a GT bike. I’ll be retiring my Raleigh Maverick and upgrading to something much better. My current bike I bought at Walmart years ago and I want to have something really decently good, and I cycle a lot during the summer so I’m willing to pay more.
Gran video 👌 , tengo una GT Aggressor Sport 2021 Rodado 29 es hermosa me encantó la verdad me encanta mejor dicho 😊 , pero si es cierto que deja que desear en el frenado , se le podrá adaptar el hidráulico de la Expert? , Un saludo mi compañero 💪🌟
Great video mate, could you please do a video on what components I could buy that would make my gtaggressor expert a better bike ?
What are you looking at upgrading?
Ive bought an aggressor sport 2021 model and i love it so fast and very lightweight plus GT make great bikes 👍
Do u know it's Weight ?
@@user-se6lg7by7t not exactly but the bicycle itself is very light and nimble 👍
@devongreen7724 Thanks for the information you gave. I think I am getting one
Thanks for doing this video. Would these bikes be okay for road riding. Thinking Expert would be best as has locking suspension.. would it be faster to as it has more gears?
hey dude. can we do a roscoe vs specialized fuse vs giant fathom? all around the 1.3k entry trail bike category. love the videos. have a good day
I was thinking about that one as well! I'll consider it :)
Talalipop MTB this would be a great video as well!
@@TalalipopMTB awesome! super cool to see the channel grow and its really cool seeing your adventures with the Marlin 5 as i have a nearly identical one.
@@MazdaMiata-gt8kw Thank you!! That bike is pretty fun :) and I'm glad you like the channel!
Thank you👍👍
Thank you too!
Looking at a 2021 silver GT Aggressor Expert 27.5 at a canadian retailer, their site says it has Microshift shifters, and their 3x8 drivetrain as well. Do you think there was an update at some point?
Road to 10k subs. Advance congrats man!
Thank you!! So excited :DD
Your so close to 10k
YESS!!!! I'm so excited :DDD
Hi, could you make a video of trek slash series?
I have a gt aggressor 2.0 2014 model I want to know if it will support 10 speed rear drive?
What about the Aggressor Pro model? Is that one so very new that it wasn't included here in this video?
Love ur vids
Just bought a marlin 7
Nice!! That's a sick bike for sure :D
I really love how you respond to ur subs :)
@@titodallasta1542 Aw hahah :) thank you!! I really appreciate all of you watching!
i just bought the aggressor expert its all microSHIFT components with a prowheel crank wonder why its different ?
So which one is the best
Can someone help with the frame size? Should you follow the size guide? Medium for 172cm
What about the aggressor pro?
do Schwinn or mongooses high-end lineup lol. because people forget those brands still make high-end bikes. also, make some canondale or rei bike vids please. polygon and decathlon would be pretty good as well.
does the saddle on the expert have quick release?
finally other brands , thought u were a trek dude , kona next ?
Yes kona
Great video. I just got the new GT Palomar medium frame with the 27.5 tires. On GT's site it lists as $560 but dealer had it for $519. It also came with Shimano equipment and All Terra crank but the web site lists it with microshift equipment and prowheel crank. So I am not sure if I got the bike with worse components than advertised and now I am so confused.
Yeah GT is really confusing to me too; not sure why their website shows completely different stuff. Shimano components are good usually so it's probably fine!
So.. can I upgrade to an 8 speed cassette if running a 7?
Does anyone know how i can make my suspension better
I know that the agressor GT sport is $600 in Australian (so perhaps that's why the prices are too high in Us $ would be about $350 to $400 ish)
Question, I bought my girlfriend an aggressor expert recently. I wanted something rugged so I can drag her on some trails with me but also for easy rides around the parks nearby. If you had to pick 2 or 3 parts to upgrade (aside from saddle), what would they be? I'd love to make shifting easier on her by switching to a 1 or 2x but I think that would require a lot of new parts.
I know you were not asking me but I had to reply 😀. I was going to make an aggressor 1x for my daughter but changed my mind when I started running the 42 ring all the time and only changing from first gear to second and sometimes third. My daughter is unable to do this so far but she will be able to if she works out on the indoor trainer. That trainer is the key, one hour there times a week plus a hard ride on the weekends will do it. I really love this simple technique, but my trails are xc type and my longest climbs are under a couple of minutes so it may not work for everyone if they ride different terrain. Man, I would definitely try it first and then decide about changing over. I'll put it this way, I ride a 1x12 and I believe I can get up the hills faster on the 3x . Something I just thought about that could make this reply a total wast of time is my aggressor has the old mega-drive freewheel, low is 34t and second gear is alot smaller ( I can't read it ), but something else I've noticed is the chain is tighter and Is quieter. Anyway I've just tried this a few times in the last couple of weeks and I love it and that's why I wanted to reply. May God bless you and I hope you keep safe riding.
Please compare the Vitus bikes they are soo good
gt aggressor sport vs giant talon 4 GE ?
So is the PRO a step up again from Expert???? I’m confused lol
I think it's closer to the Comp. the Pro seems to be a model Dick's Sporting Goods and similar retailers. The only difference I think from the Comp is the derailer on the GT seems to be generic or I couldn't see the brand. Not sure it is Shimano like the Comp.
I've looked at a lot of 24-in bikes for my 12-year-old son, almost 13. He's 4 ft 8 right now. I started realizing that I could maybe benefit from getting him a small or extra small men's bike. If he starts taking mountain biking seriously, I'd like him to be able to invest in one bike and add upgrades. Versus having to get another bike in a year. Unfortunately, I've seen that these have been $299 in the past but I can't get them at Dick's Sporting goods for that price right now. And at the price they're going for presently, that just really pushes it over what I was wanting to spend. Does anybody think that my thought on going with this bike for him is a good idea? If I can end up getting it at a lower price? Because the 24 in in other bikes are very limited and what they provide or what can be swapped out and what they start out with and you purchase it.
I agree that a small or extra small frame size bike like this one would be a better option overall since he’ll likely grow into it. If you can find these or the Avalanche models at a cheaper price they aren’t bad options.
Can you please do one with the 2016 model and 2021. Please I really need to know the difference as I can’t find it anywhere
They have not changed this bike since 2014 everything in this video is the same
I’m looking at the expert. Would probably do a 1x upgrade. Does the the bike have any other faults?
Same im going to the store this week to sit on one, im thinking about getting a medium even tho im 5'11 i have heard the gt aggressor is quite big.
I love gt I have 2 gt BMX gt air and gt slammer
I have the aggressor expert 2021❤️😁
Nice :D
I have the gt aggressor comp!
Whats the widest tire i could fit on them?
Do you like your agressor..?
You could probably fit a 2.4 but I would stay under that
Glad I got my 10 year old the expert. Also, these bikes will hold their value well as the entire industry will have major shortages the next 2 years...
I’ve read this message after a year and youre absolutely right. Prices for bikes spikes today😢
aggressor pro?
In Canada, all GT bikes are sold by Sportchek. You only get the Aggressor Sport or the Pro. Also there is only on Avalanche and its the Pro. Because of the shortage. Aggressor Pro is 3x8 the Sport is 3x7. Avalanche gets 3x9. All the drive trains are Microshift low end stuff. Even the Avalanche Pro gets an awful SR XCT fork. These bikes are major MAJOR down grade from the year before. A let down from GT.
What about the GT aggressor pro from Dick’s?
I believe that one does not have a 2021 model, so I chose not to include it in this video since it uses a different frame than these ones. The Pro is basically a mix of the Expert and the Comp, with tektro mechanical disc brakes, a 3x8 shimano drivetrain, and an 80mm travel Sr Suntour XCT fork.
Oh ok thanks for the clarification. I have a heavily modded one so...
@@ryanmarotta2413 Oh nice! How's it holding up?
It’s doing good. I got a rockshox 120mm air fork, Shimano MT200s, 780mm bars, 50mm stem, and a box three prime nine group set that’s on the way.
That’s awesome!! Sounds like a pretty sick bike now :D
Wow
gt aggressor expert ❤️
:D
Where does the aggressor pro fall in?
That was only a 2020 model I believe, but it's basically a mix of the top two models, the expert and comp.
@@TalalipopMTB thanks for answering I couldn’t figure that out I just got one used for $300
Definitely buy from a store like Dick’s who will always have a aggressor at around 500 dollars earlier this year it was even 400
Yeah I've noticed that, but wasn't able to find all the aggressor models on their website so I wasn't sure.
Somtimes Dick's does a 30% off weekend. I picked up an Aggressor then. Think it was under $300 after taxes. Rode it for a few months and sold it for $350. Ordered a Marlin 5. Been using that. Going to abuse that for a year or so then maybe think of an upgrade.
699 now
I got gt agressor expert for at sale 400€ usualy goes for 480€, decent for commuting and some easy trails but bike thieves wont bother thx low cost
Nice!! Not a bad price at all
What happened with bike thieves? In where I stay, they used to steal gt bicycles and bmx a lot. Now things are better because the thieves grew up.
@@magnumllama400 nah modern bike thieves are in high end road bikes and full suspension bikes that are locked whit cable locks. Even crackheads dont mess around cheap bikes if using quality D lock.
@@paska777 I guess so too
@@paska777 I don't even lock my bike outside of stores anymore and leave.
Interesting. Here in Canada at work at Sport Chek, the equivalent of Dick's. For the 5 years I have been working there we have had the multiple different levels of Aggressors. This year We just have the "Pro" and its truly awful.
That’s really cool! I was looking at the specs on sportscheks website and they’re using some microshift derailors different from the video… btw do you know if I would be able to buy the gt avalanche comp 2020?
My aggressor was 800 at dicks and I got it at 300 and everything came with it
Personaly I feel these bike are not worth it what do you think
For the prices that GT lists on their website, they are not worth it in my opinion. However they’re not too bad so if you can find them at a more reasonable price then why not :)
@@TalalipopMTB yeah but you could get treak marlin they are a bargain comparing and these groups bike are worthless frant of my country bike like Firefox, Raleigh and Montra for example a firefox nuke 29er it has shimano acera alivio mixed 2 by 9 drive train and see santure 100 mm lockout suspention and shimano hydraulic disc brakes I think you need to see these bike once plz reply and it's price is only 32 k rupese if you are going offline market you could get it at 28 k rupese 32k rupese = 420 USD and 27 k = 380 USD I want you to go and plz check is this bike are better than these gt bike
Hey you have 9500 sub only 500 left for 10 k I have a question did you thought that you ever that will you get 10 k sub
Definitely not!! This is pretty insane in all honesty but I’m super grateful to people like you for watching :DD
All great bikes but tourney rd's? Eh?
great video, not a great bike though, do something more high end? Amazing video though
How about an Avalanche vs Agressor comparison..
Canadian specs are so different. Gt Agressor pro which is entry level agressor gets a 11-34 cassette and mocroshift shifters lol.
