- @Polygonbikesmedia has established themselves firmly as a brand who excels in terms of value proposition, with a range of reasonably priced mountain bikes that are still down to be ridden hard. With the Siskiu T9 though, the spec list reads a little different to usual, with high-spec components throughout that may have you expecting a high price tag to accompany. At under $3,000 though, the Siskiu T9 will avoid sticker shock for most riders, and the performance it delivers as a result of its high-quality spec is quite impressive. Read on to learn all about it.

Polygon represent! 🤘 I bought a T7 2 years ago and its been amazing! The geo is perfect!
Keeping my eye on polygon for my teenage son. Good stuff.
Definitely a great brand for younger rippers!
My next bike will probably be a colossus, I spent two hours on one I'm sold, now I just have to break a bike to justify it 😂
Man that's awesome value. I hope they sell a tonne of them and force other brands to reevaluate there prices. I'd definitely buy one if I was in market for trail bike
For sure, really good spec for the money and the performance is levelled up as a result!
I have a t8. Quickly snapped the chainstay in 2 places. Took 3+ months to get the warranty part. Within 2 weeks I Snapped the top tube. Another 4 months later, I got the replacement front triangle. Exploded the stock wheel in the first month aswell. Had to buy another bike just to keep riding. Should have just bought the ripmo to begin with with.
Loving my T9. I agree the back tire needs to be changed out. Probably the wheels as well to save some weight where it counts most.
You seem to get a whole lot for your money. I just purchased a Transition Smuggler frame with shock that was a few hundred more than this entire bike. Makes me question my purchasing decisions. 🤔
You sure do. But, Smuggler is sure to be a fun time too!
Hi is the smuggler a gd and worth buying bike?immplaning to get one too soon ☺️
Cant find it on their website, could be a bike id be interested in buying
It’s not on their official website. It is sold by Bikes Online so check their website; that’s where I found it.
Go visit bikesonline.com
I'm not in the U.S.
@@craigbest8644 what country, because bikes online has a website for a few other countries
36 pounds for a 135mm bike!? Ouch!
you're definitely not looking at a 10,000$ bike, win some lose some!
It’s a little heavy, but wouldn’t take much to shave a couple pounds if needed. It doesn’t ride like a 36lb enduro bike regardless!
@@TheLoamWolf How does it stack up to the Delano Peak? Similar bike but it's only about 32 pounds
It's definitely a porker 😂 my large trance x29 2023 with 135mm travel was about the same out of the box, now it's 29 to 32 pounds depending on wheels/tires and if I have the DVO coil on or the stock DPS...
Impressive weight savings there Laurentius!
The brakes alone are >$500. Wild.
It’s really quite impressive!
Polygon a bike company that gets the average consumer. Unlike the rest that are struggling because they push overpriced builds.
Looks like Kona might be done.
We love to see brands pushing the performance envelope at more achievable price points, and Polygon is certainly doing that.
Looking like there's still hope for Kona. We're crossing our fingers!
I bought a polygon T8 in 2022. Within 6 months, I snapped the chainstay in two places simultaneously, under normal tral conditions. After 3.5 months I received my warranty part. A couple weeks after building it back up, the top tube snapped right by the seat tube junction. After 4 months, I received my replacement front triangle. Very budget frame
Wowwww
Polygon bikes are completely garbage in my experience. Poor frame manufacturing.
How so?
@@VredesbyrdNoir I cracked a T8 frame twice in 3 different places under normal riding conditions. It took a combined 7+ months to get all warranty parts.
@busterbrownbitch damn, that sucks. My friend has a 2021 T7 so I'll have him keep an eye out.
🤔
I broke my T8 frame twice, in 3 places, in one year. Under normal trail riding circumstances. It took over 7 months to get the frame warranty parts to get back on that bike.
