Evan, I have a stupid video idea that I think would be fun. Going back to your Walmart bike roots, but with a full build like you do on the channel now. Plenty of YouTubers are making videos about how the ozark trail is a great starter bike, but no one has done a dream build with one. It has all the modern standards and spacing, so I want to see kashima on a Walmart full suspension…
I really like the spec you chose for this build. Bang for the buck, this would be difficult to match or beat! Glad that you are able to move upward and onward in this mountain bike saga for all to see and be a part of! Keep up the great work Evan!
Evans signature bike. This is the bike you change everything on every week or two then sell it and start over.
That’s awesome bro! I’m not a huge Ibis fan but I’m stoked for you and stoked on this build.
Hell of a build!! If there is a better value vs quality bike out there, I haven't seen it. Super smart component choices and I'm scratching my head to be critical on a single one of them.... Congrats brother!🔥👍
I ride a Polygon T8 that I’ve upgraded. It’s got full Fox factory suspension, Hunt wheels, and more. I’ve been pleased with it. Love the videos.
I ride a 2024 Santa Cruz Blur, live and ride in southern Michigan. My previous bike was a 2013 Jamis Dragon hard tail. I just started riding again in 2024, love your videos!
I ride a 2014 Rose Uncle Jimbo. I bought it last year as my first FS bike and ever since then ive loved every minute of riding on it. Ive had it for almost a year and the only thing i had to replace so far was the shock, since the original one was losing air. Its an extremely light and playful bike with a ton of travel, i love it!
Evan,,, I'm south of you in Beebe, Ar.. At the end of my block there is a cattle ranch with a 15 mile trail system. I ride a 2023 Superior XP919 29er Hardtail in a beautiful "Mazda" red !!! I love it !!! Got it from Bikesonline... Mods: Race Face pedals, 50mm hirise 780 bars, and some fatter Schwalbe tires. Being over 65 and retired, I usually ride everyday ...
The bike looks awesome! Those dance moves at the beginning were top tier haha
Got myself a Marino custom steel frame (Reynolds tubing) for Christmas. Built it up into a short travel trail bike with 140/125 travel. It´s got full Fox performance elite suspension, Shimano 11 speed SLX/XT Drivetrain, Formula Cura brakes, PNW 200mm dropper, Syntace wheels with Onza Porcupine tires. I have pretty decent Enduro bike, too but since I got the Marino it´s been mostly collecting dust - apart from a bike park day or two. The steel bike is just so much fun and the custom geo worked out very well for me.
I just got a Ripmo AF in Cinnabon bronze! Got some orange OneUp pedals and grips to go along with the orange accents on the bike!! I love my Ripmo!!!! It’s my first full suspension bike! I wanted an enduro but I wanted a trail bike that was easier to ride on all trails. This is right in the middle!
I love watching things get built too! I quite often do the same, watching cars get built and wondering how hard it'll be to actually do it! I'm riding a spectral at the moment as my main bike, slowly chucking on my favourite parts from my almost 6 years of riding experience now! Love watching you build bikes man, and seeing you get a really sweet custom bike that people can actually purchase! Wow, you must feel so pumped!
Built up Ripley af here..I'm a fan of aluminum frames.that ripmo is sick for the price.
Hi Evan, You’re the first MTB channel I’ve subbed to in maybe 6~ years. I used to be all in on MTB, then had a family and realised spending 3 months on crutches wasn’t smart. I love the formatting and high production value of your videos - High/ Low S2 was great. Thanks for getting me stoked on bikes again - maybe enough to buy and build a new one!
Awesome to see how far you've come from the Vitus Nucleus back when you were here in Phoenix. Congrats on the signature build!
I watch your videos because I enjoy watching people work on bikes. I ride a Yeti SB140 and a Giant Talon hardtail.
Congrats on the Exclusive Build! That's so awesome for you. You've come along way! Well deserved!
Currently riding a 2022 trek slash 7 it's treating me real well haven't had a crash yet thankfully I love the bike
