    Cool that you've tested F-Podium. There are basically no reviews of this bike, and literally no comparisons. Kudos guys!

    Mo, the fact that you got the CEOs and other high ranking executives from excellent bike brands to participate is legitimate! They must respect your opinion or they would not waste their time. Get job. I loved hearing what they had to say! I am a new subscriber based on this effort.

    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

    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. 😂

    This is going to be fascinating, can't wait to see how they stack up against each other and ride differently.

    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.

  • @joeydirty6112
    @joeydirty6112 5 місяців тому +1

    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! 🤙🏻

    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 👍.

    • @moandhannahtravel
      @moandhannahtravel  5 місяців тому +1

      We will try our best to do more! 7 bikes was a lot to undertake but maybe we can do a round 2?

    Wish the Cervelo ZFS-5 or Blur was in this. I have the Mach 4 SL, Exie, and the ZFS-5 and I think the Cervelo is the best all around and lightest.

  • @mister_ray
    @mister_ray 5 місяців тому +1

    On any given XC ride at least 2/3rd of the time is spent climbing. My pick is the Trek Supercaliber.

    IIRC “down country” didn’t start as marketing jargon. The term was coined by Mike Levy as a sort of joke about mountain bike marketing and overly specific market segmentation. Thanks for the review.

    Specialized should get ZERO publicity until they pay their factory workers the back pay they are owed

    • @AlexDXB
      @AlexDXB 4 місяці тому +2

      Just researched it. These are factory workers employed by a supplier which made apparel for Specialized and six other companies. It's as if a customer is responsible for unpaid wages of a shop they bought sth from.
