Over the past year, my Polygon Syncline C5 hardtail has been my go-to cross country race bike. It's a lightweight carbon fiber rocket that I've dedicated an entire season to, documenting every moment along the way.
After sharing my experience, many of you suggested that I might do even better on a full suspension XC race bike. So, I decided to take the plunge and see for myself!
In this video, I’m excited to introduce you to my new full suspension XC race bike: the Superior XF979 RC. Superior Bikes, though not widely known in the US, have a strong reputation in the UCI World Cup XC racing circuit. This bike is a gem, offering incredible specs at an unbeatable price.

What a great bike review, this looks like an awesome bike! Some of the fastest people I know ride hard tails. It will be interesting to see the difference in your rides between this and a hard tail. Looking forward to seeing your new videos.

The cable setup is unhinged. I'd prob just take off the lockouts. Looks like a very nice bike though.

Bike looks great and seems to be a great deal. My only concern would be servicing the forks since DT Swiss suspension isn’t something you see very often. Any concerns in regards to LBS being able to service it?

DT Swiss has a service center in Colorado that services their suspension. So I think any DT Swiss dealer should be able to help, or you can deal directly.

​​@@AdrenalineIsLife Over here, they are being sold in the brick and mortar shops! I honestly don't know about direct sale! My sister was two minded about the Superior,and Kona(being sold in the same shop) she eventually went for Kona! I told her that Kona's frame is simply better,and the only difference between the 2 brands was like 5 % higher price of Kona,and Superior was equipped with the tiny bit better brakes!😅 It's a different story pass 700€ For 890€ You get boost spacing on the frame on the Superior,and the fork with the through axle! Kona is nowhere near that!

Bicycle looks rely good, like that comes with Shimano components but I don't see how tubeless will make the bicycle faster.
@AdrenalineIsLife
@AdrenalineIsLife 11 дней назад
Running tubeless reduces the rotational mass of the bike, which improves acceleration and fatigue over time.
@JuanRodriguez-wx9sq
@JuanRodriguez-wx9sq 11 дней назад
@AdrenalineIsLife If run dry. By adding sealant, you're adding possible more weight, and when rotating, centrifugal forces will push sealant to one side of the tire, causing imbalance. Still very nice bike.

27 lbs . Not what i was expecting. I have an older xc bike, and I've been wanting to get a newer geometry frame but I guess I'll stick to that bike for longer. Currently its sitting at 24.3lbs. Switching to all new components and then upgrading to lower the weight will take away precious $$$ and training time. I dont think it's worth it for me.
