When I first started riding, I bought a 29er and thought that the wheels were too damn big for the trails. Fast forward 4 years, I'm having a blast on my Sentinel 29er hahaha! Funny how that works out in the end.

@kylestyle2092 5 лет назад

Toogy Howser MTB Looking forward to your review how they compare. I want to do the same on my Santa Cruz chameleon. I’m running plus right now but I want to try a 29er by summer. Thinking Santa Cruz Reserve 30 with i9 or Kings.

@MTBTrailMagic 5 лет назад

I just bought a Trek Slash. First 29er I've ever ridden. So far I'm really liking it. Even uphills seem better.

@mtbboy1993 5 лет назад

bigger wheels for bigger frames & people, makes sense right? I need a longer frame cus mien is way too short, I think trek's sizing will requite me to get largest frame they got, but I won't go for trek, cus I want different geo, and seems to be problematic to get warranty here, but my bike is so awful I would need new bike anyway, not replacement of parts, but it seems like they don't want to admit there is a huge problem. but somewhere near 480-500mm reach I guess I will have a good reach number. I am currently at 430mm and knees hit hte bar and fork and even stem at some point, I can see the wear of the stem cap logo, the slogan halfway gone.

@kylestyle2092 5 лет назад

Johannes Nilsen Santa Cruz chameleon XL is 490 reach. I have both XL and Large frames. Confidence at speeds on XL frame is unreal for a Hardtail. I swap frames depending on my mood and riding spots.

Wetting the tire with soapy water also helps lubricate it to ease the process as well as helping to identify leaks.

@kcboddah 2 года назад

For me, getting the bead off and on was a challenge until I discovered using my heels either side of the tire worked. Caution; wheel placed on a thick towel, stay off the rim and press the tyres edge only

@ianmitchell4745 3 года назад

Due to the bicycle shortage one of the only bikes I could even buy in this price range is the Roscoe 8. I'm coming from an X-Caliber 8 which is a 29er and I'm about 6'1" 138 lbs. I also commute and ride on the road more than I hit the trails, but I live in Santa Cruz so I just HAVE to hit the trails sometimes. This interests me greatly. How does it feel, does it look weird? It looks great in the video. Thanks!

@mtbboy1993 5 лет назад

3:12 eventually the syringe will wear out, and it will be a mess,the tube cracks, and the seal pops off, also orange seal seals well so it clogs up, I recommend filling directly from bottle to the tyre.

@ToogyHowser 5 лет назад

yeah I do that sometimes, but these tires where such a pain to seat I'd probably make a royal mess doing it that way haha

@kidsaccount1 5 лет назад

I have an x-caliber that (I think) uses the same frame as the Roscoe. I upgraded the fork and increased the travel from 100mm to 120mm-like the Roscoe-and removed my front derailleur and made it a 1x. I'll be interested to watch your follow-up on the difference you notice. I love the speed of my 29ers versus what I noticed when I've ridden 27.5s. I've also ordered a better rear wheel to get a better freehub.

@ToogyHowser 5 лет назад

nice! yeah the x-caliber is the same frame as the Roscoe

@brewkeepyr4647 5 лет назад

Went 29'er in 2013 & never looked back. Although I do have a Verde Theory dj, but that's for building some what I feel are necessary skills for MTBing (I ride it at skate parks & indoor parks. It seems to me that when the BMX riders transfer to MTB they seem to just flourish. They have mad bike handling skills!). When throwing on new rubber, I sit down and place the wheel on a bucket to get it started. For the last stubborn section I'll use tire levers like shoe horns if necessary. Works well for me.

@ToogyHowser 5 лет назад

I really want a DJ just for what you mention, would love to learn some more skills on one!

@andressaenz4562 5 лет назад

@toogyhousermtb awesome Channel!! Dude, if there is no chance to fit new 29er wheels and tires, can you please tell me if i can fit a 27,5 tire but instead of a 2,8 inch, fit a 2,4 inch tire. Do you think those 27,5 wheels that came with the bike, can allow a narrow tire? or is necessary to change the wheel as well. Those mid fat tires are too much for longer rides, i mean 4 to 6 hour ride

@ToogyHowser 5 лет назад

I don’t think that narrow of a tire will work on the stock rims. They are 40mm internal width, you could maybe do 2.6, but then I’d worry about the bottom bracket being too low

@bpisan 5 лет назад

Dude. get yourself a couple tire levers. Also, I run the same LineComp30 wheels with XR3 tires - hard to beat for a $400 wheel/tire combo! Also-also, consider +/-25psi front, 23ish rear for trails

@ToogyHowser 5 лет назад

nice! I can't wait to get this thing on the trail! just riding it on the road it seems WAY faster!

@oklahotb3217 5 лет назад

If you start at one end of the tire, work your hands up each side of the wheel rolling the tire onto the rim but also pushing the tire up as you go to work any slack there may be towards the unseated portion. That should make it easier to seat. Hard to explain in text lol. Road bike tires are the worst for seating when new.

@ToogyHowser 5 лет назад

sounds like a plan! I always struggle! lol

Wow That bike looks nice. But the space between the backtire and the frame looks to close. Crazy but nice😉👍 Best Wishes from germany

@ToogyHowser 5 лет назад

It's not too much closer than the stock 27.5+ tires, but yeah it's a bit close!

@bikermonster8354 5 лет назад

Hey that look nice, can't wait for the first testride news😉👍

Quel largeur de pneu en 29" avez vous installé ?? 2.1, 2.3 ou plus ?

@bartouleterrible 3 года назад

D’après les commentaires c’est du 2,4 et il croit que jusqu’à 2,6 ça doit passer

@laurentbonnier3484 3 года назад

@@bartouleterrible nickel alors, je pourrais passer le mien en 29x2.25 parce que le 27.5x3.0 j'ai du mal à le tirer. Problème l'axe arrière qui fait chier, c'est un standard Trek.

Can you put 29ers on a roscoe 6?

@ToogyHowser 3 года назад

Yes you can easily

Why didn't you just buy an xcaliber?
