    Huge thanks for helping me get my epic 8 frameset! Highly recommending just reaching out to the team there and they’ll find away to make your dreams happen.

      could you tell me pls what size frame did you choose and how tall are you? Thanks

      @ sure thing. I’m 6’ 1” and went with an XL. I actually had the geometry checked by a fitter before I bought it and he thought the XL was the best fit for me. I have a long torso but a shorter inseam. But the odd thing about the XL frame compared to the other sizes, is that the seat post insert is very high. So I ended up having to get a 125 dropper post which is fully inserted to get the right seat height.

    Jesse, Thanks for putting this build together and filming (great job!!), I did score a set of Control SL Team edition wheels, stupid light. 1st ride will be New Years Day!! Hopefully I won't get dropped through the rock gardens anymore. Have a great New Year.

    Im glad my rear brake hose tip somewhat made it into this video, altough I pull out way more hose, almost all of it, and push it in by hand from the bottom bracket like that. But seems like it went way smoother now than in the other vid. I did the pliers method a few times myself and cursed a fair bit lol.

  • @davidlabancz
    @davidlabancz Місяць тому

    I think flight attendant still has issues. In the World Cup this year Erie Richard’s said she “hoped” her attendant locked out her fork in the sprint as it wasn’t reliable, and one would assume she has good mechanics.

    • @austinjacob99
      @austinjacob99 Місяць тому +1

      I think they’ve fixed that. But could be wrong.

    • @bicyclestation
      @bicyclestation  Місяць тому +1

      My experience with flight attendant is that it’s better at locking out than not. I think it does take some of the controls out of your hands and that could be strange. Kinda like driving a manual your whole life and jumping into an automatic.

      I think if you’re buying a new shock for the epic 8 you’d want it. They don’t really sell a normal one. They all are specifically tuned for the intended bike.

    • @bicyclestation
      @bicyclestation  Місяць тому +5

      The reason it has to cost money is down to demand. I couldn’t possibly do it for every single one we sell. Especially if the business continues to grow. Making a video is labor intensive. We pay for the editing. It’s totally optional. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to have the customer pay a bit to subsidize the production cost.
