Kyle Warner manuals pretty well too. No disrespect, but the ‘manual king’ title is up for grabs. If only I could manual more than 6 inches!

@mrvwbug4423 Год назад

I find the LR interesting, it is literally designed for one single trail, Apex in Golden, CO, the home of the Yeti "Lunch Ride" route, but the end result is pretty much the blueprint for aggressive trail bikes given that Apex combines a steep, techy climb with a flowy, rooty upper descent (Enchanted Forest) and a blindingly fast rock garden that still requires enough precision to make quick line changes (Magic Mountain).

@benjaminfirth5692 Год назад

There are still parts of that trail (climbing) I would LOVE to see people clean. Great demo area for any trail bike for sure.

I enjoy riding Severed because it's more old school. I like the fact that you have to figure out your lines, and it isn't all flow.

@hayden401 Год назад

super interesting, I love my LR 130 and this has just confirmed exactly as I thought it would be, making a LR as a standard numberd bike instead of a "special" only yeti fans knew of that fits into the longer travel trail bike world on paper. I'll be keeping my 130 smiling knowing it is right for my riding and not having to sell and repurchase for the "updated" model. noted I'm on the most populer, Large, so maybe other riders will genuinely get more from the 140 with the size differing changes. Awesome content, as always.

Great video! You’re an amazing rider and excellent commentator. I’d like to see a bit more about the climbing (though it’s super fun to see you ripping those trails, do don’t axe those bits!). I think some of us might be considering this bike for their “do it all” bike. Thanks again!

@alecfotsch3533 11 месяцев назад

Yeah I agree but I've also heard Jeff in other videos say he's just not sensitive to climbing efficiency. I'd also like to hear about it more though too.

Nice video ! hope all your vidoes are like this well edited/color grading

@JeffKendallWeed Год назад

Thanks Prince, we just changed the color profile of my A7siii so that this is the default, in-camera color. I've wasted all kinds of time with Cine4 and various SLOG profiles, only to have Adobe Premiere routinely not apply the adjustment layers/color correction correctly upon export. As for editing, I usually put too much work into these videos, so my posting is only about 1 or so videos a week. Thanks!!!

@MrDavecore777 Год назад

Amazing review Jeff, I just wonder how this bike would transform with a coil shock or a X2 (if it doesn’t fail). I agree I find these “mini-enduro” bikes the perfect all rounders. How does it stack against the switchblade?

@sml2238 Год назад

i already own the sb130 LR edition so it's like a 137. it sounds like if you already own the 130, probably not worth upgrading at this time unless you need to.

@bullseye0112 Год назад

Great review! Can you do a review on some Santa Cruz bikes like the Mega Tower or the Hightower? Really curious what you think about their bikes

@andyciarla6053 Год назад

Hey Jeff. Another great video. Love watching you ride. I know you like swapping out components on the demo bikes for items you are more comfortable with but for the average person who is trying to decide if a bike is worth spending our hard earned money on and doesn't have the money to upgrade a new bike would you ever consider riding the bikes first and give a review on how they came out of the box before you swap everything out? I know we should demo a bike first before we purchase one but that isn't always possible. I know I speak for all of your viewers when I say we like and rely heavily on reviews from professional riders like your self before we make a purchase. Thanks for all you do. Looking forward to your next video.

@auricschiller Год назад

I have a feeling he does the swaps to honor sponsor agreements.

@willbros1499 Год назад

I 100% agree with this approach...with caveats. I think the issue is, he has sponsors who he has to honor, and in the end, any sort of review of the things he's not used to, will APPEAR to be negative as a result, simply because he's going to swap them out for obvious reasons. On each of the last two bikes (Spire and SB140...minus the wheels on this one), he left at least some of the stock build components on, rather than swapping SRAM out for Shimano right out of the gate. If you notice, he didn't get off into the weeds about AXS on this bike, and he didn't say anything about the brakes. The Spire and the SB140 have SRAM on the build he was sent, and he rode them both with those components initially, unless I missed some initial "swap outs." He did immediately swap the wheels, but I get that...he's really relying on feeling the differences in the bikes, and wheels can make a big difference by comparison. I TOTALLY get what you're saying, but I'm not sure there's a really good solution. I mean the best he can do is ride it, say he was pleased with the components and they did their job, and then say he just prefers what he's used to. That's about all we can get...

@javic79 Год назад

Sounds like you used to liked the Sb130 LR a little more !! And sb130 Lr vs Sb140 Lr they seems very similar to each other.

@rpiian Год назад

If the Z1 coil’s good enough for Jeff, it’s good enough for me. Sweet vid man. What a great bike. The purple makes my taste buds tingle 😄

@JeffKendallWeed Год назад

I've always wanted a Yeti. So expensive though so probably will not get one unless it's been ridden hard already. such is life :).

@quinnlee9759 Год назад

man this looks a lot better than its previous version, the lines near the shock linkage, the downtube doesnt flaten out near the bb (thats just a personal looks preference) the new link design (not the switch infinity) looks a lot better too, and man im glad it made it a lot more functional. such a good looking bike, hope I can get to demo a Yeti soon, I would trade my V5 nomad in for an SB160 any day (if i liked the ride better that is) great video, the veiws you have in the PNW are crazy

Jeff, your reviews are amazing, and I've shared them with everyone I know looking at new bikes. I am stuck between 2 choices and hoping you can help. All-around bike: SB140LR or Pivot Switchblade My biggest concern is 1. Climbing efficiency and 2. Fast, Fun, Downhill on Rocky, chattery stuff. 3. Poppiness (if that's how you spell it). I enjoy jumps and playfulness. Which would you recommend of these 2 bikes?

Kinda wish jeff had compared this new Yeti SB140 to its replacement counterpart: The Yeti SB130 or LR versions', for those of us who want to know if it's even worth the upgrade, or especially with the "now" older models going on sale. Is it worth the Price increase since jeff has ridden both bikes now. Inquiring minds want to know these things....

Can't decide on a Ripmo vs the 2023 Yeti SB140. Have any insights between the two that you can share?

@JeffKendallWeed Год назад

Yo! Yeah the Ripmo is more playful and easier to get off the ground. The 140 is better than the old 130 for modern, built trails, but the Ripmo is still a bit more solid. 140 feels a little "quicker" when sprinting, and a little more stuck to the ground on medium speed stuff. I really really liked the 130 for my needs, and the 140 isn't far off that. The Ripmo though, it's my daily go-to at the moment. We actually bought both bikes for my daughter's mother, and she goes between the two bikes all the time.

So no more SB140 27.5? My impression from the vid is that the sb 130 is as good or maybe better?

@JeffKendallWeed Год назад

SB140 27.5 is discontinued. 27.5 stopped selling a few years ago. SB130 is a great bike, and works awesome for more natural trail riding. The new iteration is a bit more high speed, trail center focused, though it still does well in the back country too.
