  • I recently purchased the Ari Wasatch Peak to see what the buying experience was really what Ari's marketing department claims it is and to find out how this budget bike stacks up. This is what happened. *In case you haven't heard, Fezzari recently changed thier name to Ari!

    Ari's customer service is topnotch! I snapped my derailleur in 2 pieces the first time I rode my Wire Peak Pro and with no questions asked, they warrantied it and mailed a new replacement. Awesome bikes and service!

    Great review man. Being a bigger guy plus the gnarly and fast trails you ride… definitely put that to the test and lets people know it can handle what the average rider would throw at it.
    Of course, GoPro never does the trails justice so people would have to go out to the Auburn trials in person to realize what you were riding.
    I’ve had issues like that with cranks being a 200+ pound dude myself. Just something that happens sometimes when you ride trails that way.

    • @B1KER
      @B1KER  26 днів тому

      Yeah, it happens. I thought it was rad how they handled it though.

  • @hardmtnbiker

    Nice review and in my opinion a hardtail with plus wheels will level up the experience for the new mountain biker. I personally have those tires on my 27.5 plus wheel set with i40 rear and i45 rim in front but with high engagement Hadley hubs.

    Love it! How have the wheels held up? Do you know if Ari builds wheels in-house?
    Glad to see you’re still on catalyst pedals. I bought mine because of your video.

    • @B1KER
      @B1KER  26 днів тому +1

      I only did the one ride and started swapping my other parts over. I’m not sure how ARI builds the wheels. Still love the PI pedals. I tried some others recently and they just aren’t as good.

    If they have the same or better customer service and warranty than Santa Cruz then that would be great.
    That's all I ride and recommend is Santa Cruz. Yes they are high but I've only had one issue from 7 bikes that I have brought.
    Hope Ari holds up for you and happy you got a new sponsor

      The SC bikes have just got so expensive. Even if you want to build your own it’s 4k for just a frame. It’s a bummer. The Ari’s I’ve ridden so far are great and the pricing is way better.

    Hey now, I'm here to see what is up with your weight loss for the year of 2024. I am on my mountain bike a lot after a long time off. I have been riding almost daily for almost 4.weeks. I don't know what I weigh, but I was definitely the heaviest of my life and have been depressed for 3 years. I rode the furthest today of my comeback, I am getting stronger, and I'm pretty motivated. I don't know where you are with your weight loss but let's get to our goals!

    • @B1KER
      @B1KER  23 дні тому +1

      You got this man! Stoked you are out there getting some singletrack therapy. Swing by my Backpedal show every Tuesday to see how things are going with the weight loss. If you are a member, you can watch all 24 episodes chronicaling every week since the begining of the year.

    When Ari announced their name change, I questioned the timing considering how the industry is going through a retraction. Glad to see them getting good press!

      With how things were going it wasn't bad timing since it's now "all or nothing time"
      The only issue I have with the brand is the same I have with Polygon, Canyon or YT, you can't demo the bikes unless you know someone who has one...

    It took me 4 months of dealing with canyons customer service to get my seatpost replaced. FOR THE SECOND TIME. I love the bike I got but the customer service has made me never want to buy another canyon again.

      I run the dub version of SX cranks on my downhill bike because they were available in 165 and really cheap. I ditched the steel chainring anyways but they're super solid after a couple of .. hits. 🪨
