Getting our popcorn ready!🍿
I’m on a Mondraker F-Podium DC R. Love it
Such a good bike!!!
What a great series this will be!
What a banger of an intro. Well done : )
Wow, what a line up of bikes!!
Cool that you've tested F-Podium. There are basically no reviews of this bike, and literally no comparisons. Kudos guys!
More to come! Thank you!!!
This is going to be good!! Haven’t seen anyone else lining them all up!
Been waiting for this one!
Thanks!!
Hell yea that’s awesome 👏🏼 what a lineup and let’s keep these types alive for all the bikes and the ages
Thank you!!!
Exactly what I was looking for.
Looking forward to thoughts on the flex-stay system - less pivots seems great!
Ive always dreamed of Mo in Lycra. The internet may want Hannah in lycra, but im here for Mo clipped in while wearing body carressing lycra. 😂
😂😂
Can’t wait to hear more!
Would love to hear your thoughts on the bc40.
Looking forward to this🙌🏻
Thank you!! Hope you like it!!!
Getting the popcorn this will be epic
Yewww!!
Mo truly is a man of the people!!! Everytime I see cannondale all I can think of are Lefty's! Fun video as a XC rider glad to see some love for the bikes
Such fun bikes!!!!!
Was hoping to see the exie as well as the cervelo zfs-5 as I’m debating between those two but excited to hear about your reviews nonetheless! The Mach 4 SL is on my list too
Mach 4SL is so fun!!!!
would love to see you guys test an Evil Offering!
This is going to be fascinating, can't wait to see how they stack up against each other and ride differently.
Hope you enjoy!!! First review drops tomorrow!
@@moandhannahtravel Stoked!
Top Fuel needs to be here! May 24 Supercal 9.9 XO is the fastest, best Handling and a stiff rear end! Love it for XC! 🤙🏻
Next time!
Get it ,,, Lets go !
🙌🙏
I know it's a hard task to get any bikes to test. But I would like to see more xc bikes in the shootout. I'm interested I'm seeing how you guys rate the bikes. Keep doing what you do 👍.
We will try our best to do more! 7 bikes was a lot to undertake but maybe we can do a round 2?
Glad you're not tied to one brand anymore
So much fun!!!
If I was going to pick, the Spur would be my top choice follow closely by the Epic 8. My budget pick would be the Chisel FS which isn't being tested here. The Rocky Mountain Element would also make the list if it came with a 120mm fork.
So many good options!!!!
Awesome riding, what trail is that looks pretty challenging
Mine would be the Mondraker and the Scalpel (but with 120mm lefty)
Fun bikes!!!
Will be surprised if anything can touch the Specialized as an XC race bike but will be interested in who closely compares.
I just got cannodale scalpel se 2 xc trail bike brand new for about 2200$ bike is so nice 👍
Such a fun one!!!
spot ryve 115 gen 2
On any given XC ride at least 2/3rd of the time is spent climbing. My pick is the Trek Supercaliber.
Hope to test that one out soon!! 🙌
Mo talks faster than those bikes. I’m exhausted.
😂😂
Trek Top Fuel and Santa Cruz Blur are missing.
We didn’t get the opportunity! Hopefully next time! 🙌
Trek Top Fuel lol
Top fuel is a trail bike in reality.
I agree it's hard to imagine the Blur and Top Fuel not being on this test.
Where is the Kent Trouvaille?
Surprised Ibis didn't provide an Exie for demo
We tried! Unfortunately the didn’t have MO’s size
love my Mach4sl it is so good
It’s an awesome bike!!! 👏
I've been watching you guys for years!
Now that you married each other, I am hoping you guys have a child!
Easy there Mo! Breathe! Just breathe! It will be alright! I promise!
Think about the adventure of raising a child to be as awesome as the both of you! 😃
😂😂😂🙌🙌🙌
I'm sure you know, Mike Levy of Pink Bike coined the term downcountry.
He’s awesome!!
Actually that's not true he said one of his friends did in a podcast.
Surprised Trek didn't make the list...
Hopefully next time!
Santa Cruz blur?
Next time!
How is there no Trek on the test?
We didn’t have any contacts with Trek and we already had 7 bikes! Hopefully in the future!! 🙌🤪
SC Tallboy?!?
Hopefully we can do it next time! We were pretty maxed out with 7 bike haha!! 😂🙌
Wheres canyon.
Hopefully next time!! We were maxed out with space and time!
Direct to consumer sux
Where the jelly is Scott???
Hopefully next time! We were maxed out with 7 bikes!
Bc40????
Next time!
Orbea Bmc
Maby some xc hardtails
Specialized should get ZERO publicity until they pay their factory workers the back pay they are owed
Blah Blah Blah, where's Hannah? 😇
Pro Bike Supply has horrible customer service.
