Parts-list in description. Thanks for watching!
Have xc27 for 3 years. Put on 2000km on it, gravel and paved roads .
Working good with zero maintenance.
I jusy got the cx27 about 4 months ago. I've upgraded the saddle, handlebar, stem, grips and the peddles. I know if I wanted to really get into mtb that a 350 costco bike probably wouldn't be a long term. I plan on upgrading the fork later for sure.
nice i just got the xc00 fat tire
Comparing this to a 8? Geez it's 3 times the price! I'll love the extra $$ in my pocket and be happy riding this one. So much so I bought a 2nd one for a buddy.
I put about 400 - 450 miles on my XC27. Took it into a shop to help true up a wheel and they told me my axel was broken. Overall its a pretty decent bike but doesn't seem like its going to last much longer and doesn't seem like the upgrades are worth it. If I went back, I would probably get a Trek Marlin.
Can you tell me size of front suspension coz I have one of this bike and need to change front suspension.. any recommendation for front suspension plz
Hello, the fork is a Sr suntour epixon. Wouldn't recommend it as they just don't last. I'd recommend looking at PinkBike's used market for a fork. You'll get a much better quality fork for a better price.
No front brake on MTB??? Wow, you are brave !!!!
Which tire is best for this bike. I got one and need to change
Depends on what you ride (road, dirt, both).
@@Kaedenfu for trail. Dirt road. The tire 27.5x2.20 which is came with bike but I want change better tire. Any help will really appreciate it
@@dphuntshovlogs1585 dhf or dhr is the best front tires from maxis and the rear, I would go for an aggressor or cheaper tire that is heavier and is more puncture resistant. You want the front to always be more grippy that the rear.
@@Kaedenfu I'm using Minion DHF on front and Crossmark II on the back, although I'm running them on a Scott 29er
The parts list didn't show up, I'm in the market for a beginner mtb bike.
Should be working now, sorry about that!
@@Kaedenfu yeah nice list! I just came across this bike. I'm looking for a decent beginner bike I can add upgrades to down the road instead of going from beginner to a 7k bike in a few months. I currently have a diamondback and not real happy with it.
What diamondback model do you have?
@@Kaedenfu I was given a diamondback Wildwood Deluxe 26", I'm 6'3 165 so it's a little small for me
Yeah, that bike is way to small. An XL would be best for your size. FYI, used bikes that are XL decrease in value when compared to medium and larges, so I’d look into getting a used bike off PinkBike or Facebook Marketplace.
“And A Ya”
No problems with mine at all.
Can I have it. I'm really appreciate it
$399 at Costco right now. For that price, it's a bargain.
Just picked it up for $299 Costco online
That stem will work with stock handlebars
