    I rented this bike in Whistler this summer and I've been obsessed by it ever since. It is very very good.

    Great video and thank you for the tons of useful and personally helpful information. Well done Brother. You just made my decision to buy an SB165 complete.
    Thank you.

    4K For a frameset!! I get that bikes are getting better and better but common.. These are going to cost as much as the rows of new Tacoma's I see lined up like Rockets at all my local trail heads lolol

    I'm having trouble choosing between the SB150, and the 165. Need to win the lottery so I can get both. I think the 150 would be a better everyday bike. Am I wrong?

    Is it still a harsh ride like the SB6, after riding a Capra and reading about the new Enduro I'm guessing from the fact no one says this bike is amazing on bumps even with a coil that the Switch infinity is just plagued with poor bump performance in exchange for pedalling efficiency. I know with my previous SB6 me and my mate with his Capra did the old rear wheel drop test and my SB6 bounce all over, his Capra stuck to the ground. I'd be interested to know how it compares to the new Enduro as everyone who has compared the sb150 to the enduro says the enduro is way way plusher, so not expecting much of the sb165 either, especially as most reviewers say its better getting an sb150 over the sb165. For what reason I don't know as the sb165 is supposed to have great handling, so uf it were to be plusher than the sb150 then surely its the better bike.

    That’s an awesome bike! I am between the SB165 and the Specialized enduro. You said that it can be ridden for every day ride, is it true, can it be one’s only bike for everything? This or the Enduro?
    More test rides please!

      The bike's progressive leverage curve and coil shock work quite well together in both of those scenarios. Loads of bottom-out support and plenty to push on when popping off lips. - Brandon
