I bought the X right before it sold out this year. I have put over 3,500 miles on it in about 6 months. Only issues have been 1 broken spoke. And a carbon fork that wasn't up to par, Luis at Poseidon got me a new fork rapidly even during these Covid times.
Really thinking about an X. I like this Redwood but I already have a Surly Ogre to fill the slim-fat bikepacking rig role that is also my daily commuter. Though I would like something a little less hefty, but not the road bike I already have an rarely ride.
I too bought an X right before they sold out. Love it! Only change I made was going to an 11-36 cassette due to being in NJ and not needing the 46 gear and wanted to even out the spacing to only a 2 tooth change on the lower cogs.
LOL this was actually one of the best Doug Demuro impersonations I've seen. Not only did you nail his diction and the way he speaks, but you even took the time to mimic his physical gestures, his kneeling, and even his camera angles. The only thing that could've been done better was to put more energy into the "THIS" at the beginning. Nice job!
FYI - You need to use an external routed dropper post on the Redwood. The cable routes down the outside of the seat tube, there are cable guides for it. But then up internally routed in the down tube. I was told by Luis@Poseidon that fully internal routed droppers would not work. I've got the PNW Coast Suspension/Dropper w/External routing on the Redwood and loving it.
I’m shocked there is that much audience overlap between Doug Demuro auto review videos and Spindatt bicycle videos. Best video yet. Only thing missing is a goofy t-shirt and khaki shorts.
I also really loved the video you did where you took it out into the field. More of those adventures would be cool to see. I know winter is setting in so it makes it more difficult. Anyways keep up the great content .
What da F! I never heard of Doug. I went right to the comment section to find out what was going on! Eek! Lol. Funny. Do it again and I'm putting streamers on your $899 dollar drop bar Poseidon gravel bike! Great looking bike at a awesome price point. Thank you for your awesome video!
Loved this review. The Poseidon Redwoods were re-stocked Nov. 22, 2020 and I ordered one. I can’t remember if their other models were also re-stocked...
what size bike is that for you and how tall are you? Also what seat post is that? I also often need a setback like that and that looks like more of a set back that I would like.
I`m pretty much sold on this bike . I was gonna turn my Rocky Mountain x-country into a drop bar and use it for touring on and off road . This just seems like a great bike for the right price and exactly what I`m looking for .
Im trying to find out about if i can put a f-deraileur and a double/triple on it! Seems there is no real info out there on the interwebs!?!? Anyone tried this frame with f-der.?
Any shimano hollowtech, non-dub, mountain cranks should work. Alivio up through XTR have 73mm long 24mm wide spindles with external cup BB interfaces options.
Everyone commenting about how many times Eric said $899 must have never watched a Doug vid lol
I personally think it’s the best part of the parody hahaha
LOL Eric's Doug game is on point.
Never watched a "Doug" vid. That explains a bit.
@@Spindatt I honestly agree
😂 I was immediately thinking to myself this has GOT to be a Doug Demuro parody
A Doug for bikes is what UA-cam was missing
Holy smokes it would be so easy and quick to just PUMP videos out like a machine
How great would that be? Traveling around riding and talking about people's super-expensive or unique bikes!
It's the second I video that I watch that refers to Doug today, the other was form Demolition Ranch.
I would watch that. lol
Not really
Eric *engaging daytime TV 'presenter' mode
Nice!!!! Your Doug impression is great!

The fact you did a Doug style review on this bike has just made my week
Sad life
Just one question: How much is it?
$899 but you can get it now and finance it for $80 a month.
No stock
@@kellymckenzie4865 where do you buy this bike?
@@kellymckenzie4865 are you sure about the price? I would trust that information more if Eric himself had mentioned the price.
@@MAGAIVER He did.
This is perfect. You really nailed the Doug phrasing’s and inflection.
Who is this guy and what did you do with Eric?

I bet I could make an internal routed one work
@@Spindatt Cool, I'd love to see how. Just went off what I was told by Poseidon when I checked with them. And so far, it's working well.
I’m shocked there is that much audience overlap between Doug Demuro auto review videos and Spindatt bicycle videos.
Best video yet. Only thing missing is a goofy t-shirt and khaki shorts.
Epic imitation of Doug DeMuro ! Plus a great description of the Redwood ( lol 😂 and it’s quirks! ) Cheers from Cape Breton.
@3:49 we have the same watch, F91W
Very good impression. Voice and film editing is spot on. Just a little more animated hand motion and you nailed it. 😄
“That’s right” “Expect to see”
The more I listen to this, the more I realize this video probably took you forever to write.
I did not expect you to quite so fully commit to that bit :)
Eric's the type of guy who removes the top of his headset to slam his stem 3mm more.
And has a seat post that curves to move seat back but slams seat all the way forward on the rails. Style baby 👶
I know that guy DOUG! LMAO I closed my eye and I was waiting for you to say A DOUG score....lololol. brilliant!
Erick is type of guy who can said what ever he wants and he can be ok
I checked out a video of Doug's to see how good your impression was. Within 15 seconds I was like "Spot on" 😆
Lol! The moment he started talking I thought “this sounds like a Doug DeMuro intro.”
This Doug nod was fantastic.
I love this intro so much. Maybe your best ever. It’s sooooo funny
Eric's the type of guy who never lubes his chain.
Are you cold? because that's one hell of a chimney!
I also really loved the video you did where you took it out into the field. More of those adventures would be cool to see. I know winter is setting in so it makes it more difficult. Anyways keep up the great content .
Love the demuro take hahaha excellent video!
Miss you making videos regularly
Im impressed with the presentation!
I lost count on “The $899 Redwood..” nice video.
Might have to have one of these. Soon.
You're only missing the ill fitting dual tshirts.
What was the price again?
But tell me Eric, how much does it cost?
What da F! I never heard of Doug. I went right to the comment section to find out what was going on! Eek! Lol. Funny. Do it again and I'm putting streamers on your $899 dollar drop bar Poseidon gravel bike!
Great looking bike at a awesome price point.
Thank you for your awesome video!
Eric Spinny will be appearing on a shopping channel near you soon!
That was a great satire! Very entertaining, thanks! 👍
Nice presentation so profes.....!!!!! Bwwaahaha almost got it out. Nice one spinster
I think it was a lot of work talking like that, but honestly I love it.
Someone was inspired by Doug demero on this video...This is the redwood...quarks and features, lol. Good job
You didn't plug Bikes and Bids, a new website for buying and selling bikes from the modern era.
All this is missing is a slight lisp and a t-shirt under a t-shirt.
Loved this review. The Poseidon Redwoods were re-stocked Nov. 22, 2020 and I ordered one. I can’t remember if their other models were also re-stocked...
I lost it at Quirks and Features haha. Great parody
Is it me or did I miss the part of how much the "899 Dollar Poseidon Redwood" costs? 😏
Me too🤣
what size bike is that for you and how tall are you? Also what seat post is that? I also often need a setback like that and that looks like more of a set back that I would like.
It is always sold out. That’s why I ordered just the frameset and now building it with stuff I either have or can order on Amazon/eBay
Just missed it today after it was put back available on their website. It sold out in less than one hour
Woww, this is a great bike!! How much does it cost?
OMG Doug does have a brother
The "this" was very satisfying.
Bravo! Feeling the Doug Impression but you could have dressed up for it though!
You definitely got me. The whole time I was thinking, something feels weird here. Ha! Good stuff.
Eric pitches for that Shopping TV channel presenting gig....
Finally, a "Subscribe or..." that doesn't tempt me to unsubscribe.
Love the look of the redwood but leaning towards the ride manners of the X. Which should i go for???! Can it ride as well as X on the tarmac?
I'm dying. This is too good!
Love the homage to daddy Doug.
Fantastic Doug impression. If only Doug was fantastic....
I think the best idea for one of the bottle mounts is put a fitted pump
I`m pretty much sold on this bike . I was gonna turn my Rocky Mountain x-country into a drop bar and use it for touring on and off road . This just seems like a great bike for the right price and exactly what I`m looking for .
do a shot every time Eric mentions the price of the $899 Poseidon Redwood
SPINDATT DEMURO
I don't understand the extra bit at the seat stays; other manufacturers seem to go out of their way to make the frame less rigid there.
hahaha! I went from watching Doug talking about his KIA and straight to this! Very confusing!
Did you mention the price?
I think Poseidon needs to pay him a dollar every time he says "$899 Poseidon Redwood." :)
You got me at Quirks and Features 😂
Awesome Doug impersonation!
Love the bike🎉
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH. I was concerned till the end.
Soo funny, well done! I like how you were listening to the shpiel from the bike owners in your headphones- keep talking, or the Barbie gets it!
Great walk through. If you could only have one gravel bike and had to choose between the Poseidon X and Redwood. Which would you choose and why?
Can you throw 700c wheels on this and run 45s?
Nice Infomercial, Loved the Info but not the Mercial. :-) Ron Popeil out of this channel!!! Info videos are a great addition, keep it up.
I have stripped out one of my crank arms. What would you recommend replacing it with?
Hey Erick can I use shimano GRX 1x crankset on 73bb shell?
But does it have a bumper to bumper warranty?
Are they still selling road bikes?
I keep re loading there website everyday to see when it’s in stock
Oh man, the first minute or so, I was like why does this sound so familiar then bam you said Doug and I was like OHHHHHHHHHHH hahahah
IN your last Redwood video, you mentioned putting more road/gravel tires on. Did you get a chance to do that, and if so, how was it?
An how many times did he say $899 dollars . . .
I'm not playing that drinking game
Plaaaaay it
3 beer times
Im trying to find out about if i can put a f-deraileur and a double/triple on it!
Seems there is no real info out there on the interwebs!?!?
Anyone tried this frame with f-der.?
how much does it cost though
That was fun.
And how much does it cost again? :)
What's the price in euro?
LOL I went through half the video and I said to myself what's going on here
Does it come with a bumper-to-bumper warranty?
This is an add!
I don't mind though :P it was fun
How much does the stock bike weigh? What size is the model you have?
Wish I had seen this bike before I bought my Devinci Hatchet
how much is it again Doug? - top spoof BTW
Do you know what external bb cranks you can use with a 73mm shell? Thanks
Any shimano hollowtech, non-dub, mountain cranks should work. Alivio up through XTR have 73mm long 24mm wide spindles with external cup BB interfaces options.
This is good.
whoa whoa whoa, my topcap just had a tree (wutdahellz)
How much does this bike cost ?
So, what is the Eric score of this $899 bike?
