I think overall the Trek has a few things that are better as highlighted in the Loam Library, but most the gains are marginal. The one thing that isn't is you can easily run the Trek with mixed wheels. The finish on the Yeti is better, but the build kits are similar value.

Thanks, yeah I really liked it and couldn't find much to complain about. It was also really quiet. I may have to take a trip to AZ when I'm tired of the rain.

@@frontrangemtb1441 oh yeah, 30mm including the bearing cap. It is still just below my Nomad and works really well with the new geo and the trails I ride most.

Thanks, a real good time!

@@urielgonzalez9916 yeah, he’s has the new Forbidden Dreadnought. I may have him do a guest review, what do you think?

@ it would be great

It does well on technical climbs very similar to the Stumpjumper evo but the added weight can make things bounce more on steps and climbs where your weight is shifting forward and back. Also like most ebikes if you stop pedaling things do tend to stall out. Momentum is your friend. It's not as bad as full power ebikes but if worth turning down the power and shifting into an easier gear so you don't find yourself straining if your lose momentum.

@@In_dependent climbing wise I prefer the Nomad. The body position is a bit more centered. I’ve ridden the Evo mostly in the slackest setting and found my weight kinda far back and the front floating a bit. The platform is also firmer and doesn’t wallow when climbing steps. Altogether it is longer and heavier so that hurts it a bit around switchbacks and maybe on long days. I think it’s well worth the trade off.

The back end flexed a bit more than I would have liked especially at high speed in rocks and hard compressions. It had a tendency of feeling really confident and stable at speed until things got rowdy.

@@Seebema haha, warrantied it back in July before the recall and still waiting

Yup! These prices need to settle down and I don't think that bike changed enough to warrant an upgrade.

I rode a ML in the previous gen, but with all the updates to geometry and some of the bikes I've ridden since I would go large. I didn't have any trouble getting the 200mm seat post low enough and it really didn't feel as big as some of the numbers would suggest.

@@NICADV yeah ok, I probably need to ride both sizes again to make a good decision. I have ridden the large and it was long for sure

@@allywood96 What is your saddle height? I'm at 74cm center bb to top middle of the saddle and I't seemed bottomed out with the stock seat post.

I would go Nomad, especially if you're going to put a 170 38 up front you might as well have the frame to back it up. While the Bronson climbs marginally better it doesn't feel more agile on the downhill and the Nomad definitely feels more confident and stout when you push its limits.

It is Apex, on the front side climb either Argos or Pick n' Sledge

@@NICADV ahh. Guess I didn’t explore that one then

@@urielgonzalez9916 I love exploring new trails

@@DesertBros it wasn’t bad, the rock is super grippy

@@Calshreds yup, Colorado just north of Boulder

@NICADV lefthand?

@@familieebeling3862 I think so, it’s still one of the best dual 29 enduro bikes on the market. It does lean playful and agile compared to some newer enduro bikes, but that’s my preference

​@@NICADV Thank you❤

@@pt.mtb2389 I really depends on what you’re comparing it to but this version has pretty neutral trails manners. It’s not a Hightower or Fuel EX but it’s much more stable than a blur or top fuel.

@@NICADV Main comparisons were an old insurgent and newer longer travel trail/shorter travel enduro rigs...Had the evil in the higher position as well, but it also could've been the tires. I just felt like I couldn't lean those dissectors, personally. It just felt like it wanted to wash out all day

@@pt.mtb2389 definitely could have been the tires but also the big wheels take an entirely different technic than something like that Insurgent. That is one reason I had the 5010 as my long term bike rather than a dual 29er.

@@jackford1841 yes, the ML should be a good size. 490 is pretty big, what’s your saddle height?

@ from middle of BB to seat fully up is 720mm ish

@@jackford1841 then it should fit well. Trek has serious deals on the XTR bikes: alnk.to/6TALkcd

No, the seat tube is 10mm longer than the competition and doesn't allow for full insertion of the Fox Transfer 200mm dropper.

They are doing some good work in Colorado!

I agree, those bike look really cool. I haven't reached out but I"ll start looking into who to contact.

@@NICADV awesome

@@billydeewilliams8909 honestly I like it for going fast and it brakes traction similar to the reckon. However, I’d rather run dual dhr II for the better balance of speed and traction. I hate the feeling of the backend just skidding about.

@@craigsteele8178 it is an impressive bike and a crazy evolution

@@certaindiaster59 so I guess nose manual

@@MTBCoop 🤘for sure, what’s your first ride going to be?

@@SilverlanceMTB I know many people have but I do not think Santa Cruz recommends it. For me the stiffer 36mm fork made all the difference.

@NICADV well noted thanks for the information bro.

@@DandyHippo 🍻

@@nicholashines7686 thanks, that’s how I feel about the 5010. Are you on the new Ripley?

Thanks, I hope you have fun with the Sprie. It was definitely a good upgrade for me.

Not too far, It is certainly more burly and capable than the V4. The 38 on the Nomad is probably what makes it so sure footed in the gnar. However while the new suspension loves high speed chunder it is a bit muted on mellower terrain and requires more effort to get going and off the ground.

@@GamerBZM 🤘

For sure, finally completed it last summer. It was 1st attempts back then so definitely slow going. I was stoked how fast Pfo and Griff got through the line. If the weather continues this way, we maybe able to get the whole group down the line.

Yeah, I've had fine luck with these BBs but definitely reduced longevity.
