I was thinking about buying a Stump Jumper. But one of these in the store and asked to have a look. It’s still all stock right now. I just got it today. The salesperson told me to ride it a bit and come back in a few months to upgrade to tubeless tires.
I did the same to my Epic EVO Comp. Upgraded to XT/XTR drivetrain, SID SL fork, Reynolds/i9 wheels, and carbon post and bars and it's under 23# for a medium.
Nice build there, during the Pedaldemic, I did a complete rebuild on a 21 Epic EVO Expert, It's 21.5 pounds now, drivetrain is the most important for handling/exceleration, XO1 cassette, XX1 gold chain, XO1 cranks, 36t Specialized Eagle aluminum chainring, XTR SPD pedals, Roval SL wheels/removed tape, put in plugs, Stans Race tubless, Specialized 2.35 S-Works Fast T5/T7 Trac front, 2.35 T5/T7 Renegade rear, Rock Shock Sid Ultamate fork, Sram Centerline 2 piece rotors w/metalic pads, Syncros Hixon carbon bars w/built in 50mm stem, ESI Chunky grips, Fizik 3 D printed carbon saddle, Thompson Masterpiece seatpost, I've got 2,500+ miles on it in15 months, all trail miles, this bike is forgiving, fast, comfortable, I could get it lighter, but its amazing now, I have ODI BMX end caps(much stronger then ESI's) Wheel computer, electric bell, bottle cage w/tool, custom stem cap, Rock Shox front fender, Blue color frame, blue Roval wheel stickers, blue forks, blue grips, the brakes, shifter, headset, bottom bracket are all that left from stock, so not a total weight weennie !!! its lighter then a S-Works Epic EVO, and a few thousand $ less.. (I sold the parts I took off to lessen the $ load)..
I started with the exact same Comp Epic Evo and then went with almost that build! I did ultimately changed it to a 130 fork, 117 rear (shock), and AXS post.
Did a similar thing. Got the base model Epic Evo and then swapped my GX axs and G2 rsc brakes from the old bike and found used race face cranks, i9 UL system wheels, "da package" bar stem combo, and AXS dropper and now have better than s-works for < $5K (minus the suspension upgrades, but I'm not a shock nerd - this is my first full squish bike)! Best part is I've got an "old bike" with a brand new drive train from the stock evo. Fun stuff, and sweet bike!
Wheelset seems pretty weight weenie for a down country :) I would change the saddle to a carbon rail one, no creaks if you use carbon paste on the rails/clamp !
Did the same thing. Sub 22 lbs with a rigid carbon seatpost and running SRAM 1x11 (perfect XC bike for Park City). Still under 23 lbs if I throw on my AXS dropper. I swapped out the RockShox shock and fork for Fox and it's 1000% better. I couldn't get the Rockshox tuned well - it was either super harsh or super soft, no perfect middle.
Really appreciate this video! I also have an epic evo comp. Did up plenty of carbon, down to about 25#, and wondered what benefits there would be to some other carbon parts. Guess there’s another 1.25# waiting out there if I wanted. This was helpful, thanks!
@@TeamFeralCatz with the Holiday sales, I gave into the e13 Helix cassette, an XX1 carbon crankset with X01 chain (tried e13 XCX crankset just didn’t work out and returned), upgraded to XT derailleur and XT shifter, and splashed out on an Enve M6 stem to match the Enve M6 bar I had. Only thing left that I’d consider would be ceramic bearing headset & BB, just to top it off :) For me, not worth the cost for the SID Ultimate to shave ~100g
@@dancikovic4598 the BB interface was not smooth at all. The contact points did not have enough offset for the face of the crankset bearing to mate nicely to BB. Was not worth the work anymore for it to run smoothly. Installed the SRAM XX1 with a Dub BB, and am very happy with it!
Just collecting the 2022 EPIC EVO Comp this week. Your video confirmed the 2 things to change. Wheels - carbon rims is the goal and the cranks as I want 170mm as opposed to the 175mm standard. So I'll take some weight out while I am at it. My only reservation will be how well I can now ride the chunky downhill trails as compared to my previous 2018 Trek Fuel EX 9.8. 130/130 vs 120/110. hoping i am not unhappy with this change.
Nice! I wanted the S-Works Epic Evo but had to settle for the Expert so I upgraded everything you did and more because I also wanted remote lockout front and rear. I went all in with remote Sid Ultimate fork, custom Fox remote lockout shock, XX1 AXS derailleur, cranks, oilslick cassette, and chain, Control SL wheelset with Maxxis Ikon rear 2.3 , Ardent 2.3 front, Magura MT Trail SL 4 piston front/2 piston rear brakes (I eventually want Trickstuff Piccola but they are behind by years), ultralight bar, stem, grips, and carbon saddle, Ti eggbeater pedals, and a Bike Yoke Divine SL 80mm dropper. I even swapped out the rear shock aluminum yoke for the carbon version. Total weight (medium): 22.5 lbs. I then sold all the take-offs so probably paid not much more overall than I would have for the S-Works but this one is lighter and has remote lock out.
Thats quite impressive and light build. Does epic evo have internal cable route for shock remote lockout or you are forced to have this cable routed externally ?
@@LuckyLuke6543 It does have internal routing. There is a little hole just above the shock on the underside of the top tube with a rubber grommet that will take a cable. This was a major selling point for me. However, there are only three entry holes on the head tube, so given one for the rear brake hose, then you have two spaces left for three cables. Thus either (or both) the seat post or the derailleur needs to be AXS. I chose the derailleur because the AXS seatpost is pretty heavy and I love AXS shifting.
Wow, I hadn’t thought of replacing the aluminum yoke. How much weight does that save?? I made lots of the upgrades you did, but with XTR drivetrain including the cranks with 4iiii power meters - that’s probably the biggest weight sacrifice I still have. I have the 125mm carbon KS Lev so I can really ride it like a trail bike. I do have the Trickstuff Piccola and highly recommend if you can find them. I’m so much happier with my custom Evo than if I had the S-Works.
@@michaeljensen4095 Cool I want the trickstuff brakes but they’ve not taking orders and I can’t find them. I had to replace my rear Magura because it keeps failing so I’m putting on an xtr 2 piston. XTR brakes were my second choice after the piccolas but they weren’t available at the time. It’s the story of my life that when I finally have enough money to build my dream bike there’s a worldwide shortage of parts. The carbon yoke saves an ounce or so.
@@ericmoore9554 I have to say… I think XTR 2-piston are pretty marginal compared to Magura. I think the most important thing with Magura is having someone who knows how to bleed and set the mineral oil up properly. I just swapped out XTR two-piston on my hardtail for a set of MT8s which I had laying around and it is amazing how much better they are. I have gone through this XTR to Magura MT8s on three bikes now… the only time I have ever had an issue was when I was traveling and had a mechanic work on them and screwed up the bleed… my home mechanic re-bled and all good. That said, the Picollas are even better and lighter. Supply should open up before long now that DT Swiss owns them. Hope they don’t screw up the quality.
Did you have to get a new chain? I have the same bike for the same reason you got yours. I could not get the pro model. I finally decided to upgrade it now. I like the fork, so I will keep it. I will get the Roval wheel set and new cassette. I was going to get the XTR cassette, but I think I like your choice better. I did not know which crank arms to get, but now I do. Thanks, you really helped a lot.
If there was one thing I would have changed, it would have been getting an xo1 axs derailleur rather than the gx. It's not as insanely priced as the xx1 model but it is almost nearly as light, it's like...20 grams off or something? and around 200g less than the gx, if I recall.
Hi, great video, could you tell me please how tall you are? I am stuck between M and L (leaning towards L) and I have noticed you ride Large one. This new trail geo confused me as I always rode Medium bikes (old geometry). Thank you
Is there a sence in changing the SID brain fork to something lighter? I have an Epic Expert, and as far as I feel that the Brain on the back is working, I cannot notice on the fork.
So you can use the ethirteen crank and cassette with the axs derailleur and setup? Also the crank xcx race carbon crank thats designed for road or gravel bikes? I also have an evo comp I'm planning to upgrade. I probably won't drop 2500 bucks for the roval control sl wheelset but might get the roval control carbon 6b xd (250 gram heavier wheelset) in its place
Cool vid. I also have the same color Epic Evo Comp with tan sidewall ground control tires. It's such a fun and fast bike! Someday I'd like to get carbon wheels for the bike.
Cool video- I thought the line at the end saying no weight weenie parts was funny as the whole video was full of weight weenie parts- especially the wheels
Sorry to only reply 8 months later but yes, I did have to switch the BB for the cranks. They were almost identical in weight though, the e13 BB actually weighed like 8 grams more.
My Giant Stance 2 weighs stock at 29 pounds tubeless tires ready.! So far I have taken 1/2 pounds by replacing the heavy pedals it came with and the handle bar grips I also installed polyurethane plastic fender that are super lightweight. Next on my agenda is replacing the seat with a 3D printed seat that will take off a pound I have researched this seat for months great reviews people say it’s the softest and lightest seat and durable. Also get a carbon fiber dropper post.! In the future Adding Maxxis Ikon tires. Maybe I might get Carbon fiber handle bars. That’s pretty much for know. I’m going to research find out if I can bring my bikes weight to 20 lbs. !!!!!
I just built a revel ranger to 24.5 lbs. go for the control SL wheels, xo1 cassette, xx1 crank, one up carbon bar. And your good to go. At a minimum go with the wheels. Game changer.
While i like the weight loosing thing , lately becoming more sceptical about real gains. Didn’t bike rip in the stock form? Does it just feel little bit snappier compared to how it was before ?
Great build! I’ve got the comp also & have to say the Roval wheels were a game changer for me 🤘🏼I went with carbon bars & switched over to Maxxis tyres. Overall is close to stock weight, but it RIPS the tails her in NZ 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Sorry for such a late response! Because I was patient and did get a couple parts that were used I was a couple grand less than the s-works cost. And I couldnt find one to buy anyways at the time haha.
@@HilleCine even with carbon fiber parts and expensive components light components, my bike still weighs 28 pounds but that’s normal for a trail bike. So if I want lighter, I put my self on a diet. It’s a win win situation.
@Steven K a trail bikes’s average weight is about 30 pounds which it’s normal. It would cost me more on parts just to shave a couple of hundred grams. Not even a kilogram. If I want lighter, I might as well get a hard tail carbon fiber bike which is nice. You can still bunny hop on a trail bike.
The s-works is another ca 700g less (saves further weight on frame, brakes, saddle, xx1 axs etc) I upgraded my evo expert similarly as you (cassette, handlebar, crank) but kept the control carbon wheels (vs getting control SL), now at 11.1kg with pedals. Superb bike! Ride safe & enjoy!
@@krausol2802 Yeah, my setup makes up the difference with a lighter crankset, bars, stem, and a much lighter dropper since the S-works comes with the AXS reverb. 11.1kg is great! It's a super fun bike.
