Kinda disappointing after all the cover shenanigans they had going on. Also I don't get how this is supposedly "all about adjustment". The adjustment ranges are super limited. More than enough, don't get me wrong, but I don't get why they're emphasizing this aspect when other frames have them beat by a mile in that regard. Overall it seems to be a minimal evolutionary step for n already pretty dialed bike. Not a bad thing at all, just a bit too much hype behind the whole thing for my liking.
It's funny honestly. YTs are really nice bikes. I have two. Then they put in those garbage handsets, like don't forget this is a bike, it has to have a problem.
@@vlbz brands been finding ways to jew ya since 09' with all the r&d and tech and dual crowns surviving just fine on 1 1/8 headtubes, theres no reason. Why does every orher fork go tapered but the ones with the most forces against em stay straight 1 1/8 and use reducer headsets. Its a slack and steerer issue. Chris king headset and dual crowns on og 1 1/8 never broke. Industry standards not being very standard since theyre changing every few years to make everything cost more and older frames a bitch to modernize
@@RoachDogggJRnot sure I'm following. It is 100% a bad headset issue. Easy swap anyways, and otherwise I'm sure this will be a great bike. The core 2 is an absolute steal. Core 4 is great value as well.
Love my prior gen alu 650 Tues but I am chip-curious. A slightly higher BB sounds intriguing. The bike is so quiet and planted but still pops off lips. I'm wondering if they are still spec'ing a 10.5 shock.
it's a chainguide that lifts the chain. check out vali's bike here with it - www.vitalmtb.com/features/winning-bikes-fort-william-world-cup-downhill-2024
From that point on I think this whole „covering up so no one can see“ is more marketing to gather attention. I mean the flipchip is not a breakthrough technology that we havent seen yet.
I do have a question concerning the chain stay adjustment. If you go from a long to a shorter chain stay, does that mean the actual physical bike chains has to be cut down?
I guess to be competitive on respective market? A quick UK vs. US price check on Tr Sess, the difference is even sligtly more. The £ tag is a bigger number than the $ tag, on top of the 25% ex rate diff. You yourself have made an active choice to settle on a small isolated island, get over it! ;)
These bikes are great deals ,better deals than my Santa Cruz because they’re sold direct . You can get great deals by buying last year models new in box !
Cool seeing a bike review on a trail I ride all the time. Wish I had a DH bike, but my enduro handles the trail just fine. New Tues is just ok at best. Other DH bikes are way better. YT be like "Hey guys, new for 2024 we added some flip chips." YT, is that's all you got. You guys covered this bike up for flip chips LMAO.
