Is the Saris MHS DUO The New Benchmark Bike Rack?!
The Saris MHS DUO is, at least on paper, a more versatile, better performing rack than anything else on the market; but can it live up the hype? That's what we've tried to figure out over the past month, and these are our honest thoughts on the MHS system. Note that Saris did give us this rack to review, but they have not seen this video before posting and our thoughts on their products are entirely our own.

MTB Fitness Coach Shares Tips to Maximize Performance and Fun!
Hi, when we watch the Kona Honzo 😮 wtf with those cables ❓ no no no sorry l don't give 3.099 EUR for this bike. Come on, even the drop seater have an external connection 😮 My bike hardtail is cheaper and nicer, w good spec. With 3.000 nowadays l buid a machine with carbon, 1000W engine and big fork.
I've never tried and may in the future, just for change in pace of riding. The other thing you didn't mention crank length, wouldn't the leverage and distance pedaled change with crank lengths? I can imagine you'd want longer cranks for more leverage?
Is this successor of F3 bike? How does it compare to that? I had F3 and loved how light weight it was.
Ibis DV9 anyone ?
Hi there. This is something just a little bit different. You need to change your channel name like "Riding with Josh, Wendy and Doggy... lol How could you let your dog's name out off this and use him/she in the opening pic? 🤣 Now about that geometry. XC that can handle some technical terrain but without compromising the climbing. Thanks in advance ✌
No Kona bikes on this list is okay but I'm a little surprised one didn’t make the cut. Yep I'm a fan of Kona.
Another drawback - lower back pain and lateral muscle pulls from all the twisting while jumping on the pedals!
Gracias 🙏🏻
Great content mate. Deciding on which Stanton I want so your videos are super helpful.
Where are you finding the hello dave so cheap, I can only find it for 2000 on the planet x website
Do you have the full video? Love the channel man! It makes me want to upgrade my hardtails current frame to a steel one!
Is this strictly an exercise in how much you can spend on a hardtail or am I missing the part where we learn whether any of these bikes is a pleasure to ride?
With the 29” wheel you also carry more momentum as well as achieving better rollover. Even better with 29 plus (29x3).
Been desperately trying to sell by Intense Tracer Pro so I can get this bike…
I have the Rocky Mountain Soul 10 and I'm amazed with its road manners on pavement; smooth ride, great drivetrain and hydraulic brakes that stop on a dime. Your review was spot on. I would have loved to see a Kona make your list.
I know bryan
Holysheed the whole parktool galore there 🫡🫡🫡😂😂😂
Good stuff
Because the marketing people are telling you to.
Man!!! Still no love for the Norco Torrent.
I want to do this for my sq3 … any advice ? Trying to get used parts lol. So just a fork that takes 29 inch? Have any budget recommendations? Will probably need wheels and tires too right ? Will look on marketplace.. Should I get same type of tires on the front ? The assegais ?
Any weight, for the size small?
So double it for Canadians. 2 grand or more for something equivalent. Gross.
If you add more axle to crown height by increasing fork travel it shortens the reach not increases it. It will lengthen the wheelbase tho
I am thinking about getting into the sport, but i can’t afford much (i am young), and so i was wondering what bikes you guys recommend, the two i’ve seen and had in mind is the marin bobcat trail 3 and the gt avalanche comp, any thoughts would be great!
I have 2 beautiful full suspension bikes, one carbon and one aluminum. But the bike I'm always thinking about and wanting to ride is my burly steel hardtail
😮dude really the Judy is not the problem is just too heavy for hardtail, geometry everything is wrong with this ,I got Rockrrider that does better than this at half the price and 3 kg less
HARD TAILS RULE!!
Great video! Talking about bike geometry is important for those who have the money and passion to build a bike around their needs. If you don't though, don't give up! Learning on your bike now, even if not ideal, will make it that much easier when you get a better bike. Great video and good luck everyone!
Josh are you going to consider selling this anytime soon since you review many different racks?
Finally some sane people around here ,I did a stupid thing 😮 just bir the ht 1 in deore nice brakes and transmission,dh wheels it seems ,but my God what an abomination they create ,frwme is crap not xc,not trail ,not enduro 😮chainstay to long , doesn't wheely ,just bada and weird ,I paid a tousand ,last 30 min on it and I ask money back ,worst crap hardtail not worth a penny ,I got cheaper bikes that put smiles on face😮,firs and last Cannondale,they should stop making bikes
❤❤❤❤
For gear ratio, how does it difference between wheel size, let's say 16 inch wheel. Thank you
thank you Sir for sharing your knowledge about single speed :) done subscribe and like heheh
Yep, I told Saris CS about the awful threaded wheel height adjuster 2 yrs ago...still waiting on an improvement.

I has Marin SQ 2, but brakes sukks!
Does the screw you install on the hitch sleeve keep the rack stable while driving? Does it basically do the same job of stabilizing the rack that the ball-bearing does on other racks like the 1up racks?
I just went tubeless with this tire, looking forwarding to getting on the trail with it
Fezzari/Ari hardtail is a great build.

I mostly ride single speed, since my derailleur doesn't shift usually. But, I believe converting your bike to a single speed is a foolish choice. Because, on windy days, you really can benefit from shifting gears.
I remember my Diamondback Silver Streak BMX! Chromoly was king...
Great info thank you! I recently got a new aggressive HT with all the latest and greatest geo numbers and just don’t like it very much. I found that I don’t like a low bottom bracket and really don’t like a steep seat tube angle, also don’t like it too slack. Thinking of selling it and picking up a RSD middle child 🤙
How much it weight
What you'll get with Polygon & Bikesonline: garbage bottom bracket & crankset, mismatched chain, and an undesirable configuration you're likely locked into. Avoid!
Singlespeeders get off more 😂
I have the small ohlins ht small. Small and medium come mullet large xl come full 29. It took me some time to get use to the longer slack size of the bike. I changed the stock dissector rear tire to a lighter faster specialized slaughter just because that’s what I like. The metal for me is now a fun playful toy. It does feel like it has some drag and can be sluggish at times or on the climbs. When speed picks up and you figure it out it can get rowdy and fun.
You really sell signs so that people can leave unsightly garbage along trails?
Cannondale habit ht2 and Norco fluid ht2 are the two I’m looking at but hard to find with 27.5 wheels
