I'm with you on the "traversing the forest" school of biking. I have the skills for the chunky bike stuff, but I find it too risky for my old bones. Gravel grind the Forest FTW!

@EverythingsBeenDone 2 года назад

Well said!

@dubbya57 2 года назад

Exactly what I was thinking. As a 65yo I don't want to do the same stupid stuff I did a couple of years ago causing a severed rotator cuff. Instead of buying a dedicated gravel bike that I might use once a month (no roads near by) , I was looking for a xc bike for the trails near by but take to a gravel event ever so often. The supercaliber seems like the right bike for me. Thanks for the great video.

Honestly, I don't know why Dustin doesn't have like 200k subbies. This is the best channel on the YT.

Me either. The cosmos operates in mysterious ways. Lately I've been binging old DK videos while riding my indoor trainer. So far no Sasquatch. But I'm hopeful!

@Roaming50 2 года назад

I'm so sick of all the "mountain biking is only sending road-gaps or doing back-flips in the air" mentality. I've been mountain biking since the early 90s. It's always been about the journey and traversing nature. It is my escape vehicle from life's ho-hum daily blah. My Xanax to modern society..

@EverythingsBeenDone 2 года назад

I feel you!

@Dave435l 2 года назад

Got into mountain biking via hiking not bmx like alot of riding buddies and definitely feel the same way. If I can't make a cup of coffee or take a chill out break mid ride, something went wrong

@christopherhendrickson221 2 года назад

Man I feel this. When I got into mountain biking, the cool kids rode fully rigid steel framed bikes with only a single gear cassette. Now it’s about spending $6000 on a full suspension trail bike to ride perfectly smooth trails.

@JerryNelsonBike 2 года назад

Right on that's also why I got into mountain biking. In 91.

@lechprotean 2 года назад

I recently added a very similar Canyon Lux Trail to my stable - it also has a triangle that fits a bikepacking bag, but has a bit more travel and a lot cheaper for a given spec (and it does have a dropper post from factory). I love and frankly even on plush rides where a gravel would suffice, this MTB so much more pleasant in soaking bumps. Without knowing I also hit my PB fastest ever times on local trails that I've traversed with a gravel bike many many times. So the right tool for the job IMO - if the terrain gets rough or you plan to ride rooty singletrack, full sus MTB is the way to go!

@Jean-jk4zv 2 года назад

nice find, but 6 months delay here 😅

@marcokalle2452 2 года назад

As a dutch flatlander, this bike seems perfect for the "mtb" terrain we have here, which is far from extreme 👌🏾 awesome video once again, keep 'em coming Dustin! 🙏🏽🤘🏽

@juanpiantino9182 2 года назад

This review is spot on. I love your honesty and humility. I like jumps, gaps, rock gardens, and the like, but I also enjoy a long cross-country ride. Why limit ourselves? I rode HOspital Hill today and remembered your video... Gotta get back there in a few weeks when the wild flowers are blooming.

@davidross8233 2 года назад

I agree with all of this. Unfortunately I’m allergic to carbon fiber.

@daltonbartholomew5149 2 года назад

My experience cycling is on fixed, road and rigid mtb. I’ve been considering a 120-150 travel hardtail mtb and never thought I’d want a full suspension. This bike has me interested. But I also want a electric cargo bike soooo I just want all the bikes

@kobi2002 2 года назад

I have this very bike. It feels like I hard tale when locked out. Very nice bike.👍🏾

@Zahava 2 года назад

I used to own a Trek Fuel Ex (140/130, 66ha) but sold it to get a Supercaliber. I still run a 150 dropper on a L, instead of the lockout. The Supercal is such a blast to ride, even on the North Shore here in Vancouver. Sure I can’t go as fast on the downs as my Fuel, but I can spend the whole day climbing. And then I can double duty smash gravel roads faster than a lot of dropbar bikes.

@jonpoon3896 2 года назад

It’s been on my dream bike list. The rear shock system leaves enough frame space for decent bikepacking capability

@mister_ray Год назад

Hope you review the new Gen 2 Supercaliber. It has more travel and a dropper post.

@joelrichards4965 2 года назад

We are on the same page regarding mountain biking. I tried the recent modern geometry MTB bikes and find them sluggish and clunky for the traversing in the woods kind of mountain biking I like, so I opt for my cyclocross bike with 40mm tires. I think an XC hardtail or something like this is next bike for me.

@CycleXplorer Месяц назад

This is my time of mountain biking. Trundling about for a long way on silly adventures (with hike a bike of course)

@Zzyyxx22 2 года назад

Trek had a problem with the fork stopper thing. It was cracking head-tubes from the inside out. They fixed it with a metal insert. Worth checking for damage on bikes you don’t know.

@bobbyjoesugar 2 года назад

I have the procaliber which is the “hard tail” version of this bike. It’s perfect for long rides on single track that isn’t difficult.

@Robin_Hood381 2 года назад

Also check out the Trek top fuel. It's their other cross country/"down country" mtb that's geared more towards the downs. The top fuel has new updated geometry for 2022 that everybody is giving high praises about.

@mikesiemens4145 2 года назад

I have a Procaliber, it's a rad Downcountry bike.

@brian90tb 2 года назад

The video editing with the music beats... *chef's kiss*. hits so good.

@EverythingsBeenDone 2 года назад

@johnnydoe66 2 года назад

The main purpose if I remember correctly of the knock block is to keep the fork crown from striking the bottom of the downtube, which would be a bad thing on a carbon frame.

@EverythingsBeenDone 2 года назад

This makes much sense

@thelazyreconnoiter583 2 года назад

Actually, have been looking at the Super Caliber for exactly what you’re talking about here. Looks like it would be great for exploring the woods here in the Midwest.

@aaronedgeart 2 года назад

I agree, this is what I'd want as well. My Santa Cruz Hightower CC was too much MTB for my riding style and lower capabilities.

@sethbeiden1305 2 года назад

Fuck yea. As a mountain biker that bike (yes I have thankfully been on one) is crazy capable downhills. I got way gnarlier on that thing than a hardtail and it was super fun. Sounds like it goes both ways!

"Why buy new when you don't have to?" Because, right now, their used bikes are priced at or near what a new one costs. I can't blame them. They are a business and bikes are still a bit hard to come by.

I am currently riding a Marlin 8 Gen 2. A smooth cool ride on traditional bike trails but still too heavy even for paved City rides. Road bikes are out of reach financially. But this one looks to have more speed and lightness. True?

Supercaliber is a good XC bike, but the Scott Spark XC, weighs less and has full variable lock suspension. The Trek Supercaliber is just not as capable as the Scott Spark, and is the best way into a capable bike in a wider range of terrain.
