I got one with the mechanical GS shifting. The only issue I'm having is when I am in the lowest gear if I back pedal the chain falls up a couple gears. I only have that issue when I'm stopped and I back pedal to reset my position. Pretty extreme chain line in first gear. I guess because of the short chain stays and boost cranks? Do you have that problem with the AXS Transmission group set? I might try a 6 mm offset chain ring to move the chain line in a bit...
Wish I would have seen the 120 GX T-type on sale I would have definitely picked one up. I'm on the fence about grabbing the mechanical GX for 3400 and just upgrading it after the stock parts wear out.
I just bought that set up last night from Mikes Bikes online. Going to get a dropper put on it, my shimano brakes cause sram suck (IMO), and putting my Noble wheels on it with Berd spokes and DT Swiss 240s. Going to be a sweet rig. Coming from a 2018 SC Tallboy.
Great honest review! A question regarding sizing, I see you are riding a medium size bike and wondering what's your height/inseam? I'm 5'9 and think a medium might be too small. An advice?
Picked one up a few months ago, rad bike!
Love mine. I bought both travel options. Get the discrete clamp and move that silly shifter out of the way. 5'9.5” on a large.
I considered getting the 100mm travel as a backup as well. 🤘💯
Great review - thanks!
Great review, fun video

I haven't had any issues on this bike with that specifically.
Just did buy one with a 54% discount. I hope it's good
I've put around 2k miles on the bike and still have no complaints. Enjoy!
@@jonsstuntgarage5055 nice! Good to know 😁

Still a bargain at that price and for the build imo. 🤘💯

Are you still happy with the bike? Any complains? Thx in advance.
Awesome viodeo. I just bought it last night. I wanted a blur, and then saw this. How are you liking it now and what did it end up weighting?
Still haven't weighed it, but loving the bike more and more with every ride. 💯🤘

I'm 5'7" with 30" inseam and the medium ZFS-5 fits me well. I might need to stem in by a 10mm, though.
@@TheBaldTruth1 thanks for your response - very helpful
Im 5'8" (on a good day :). Not sure of inseam off the top of my head, but it fits me perfect and I have plenty of play with the seat post and dropper.
Rad bike John! 😎
Thanks, brotha! It's been a blast!
I like this trail.
3:40 😂
Awesome, another 6000.00 dollar mountain bike, and just when the industry is crashing. Perfect timing.
Yeah, at $6k it wasnt even on my radar. But marked down to $4225 with the sram groupset and all, I'm happy with it so far.
