Great video Aliex. You answered a question that I had about using a hobie 180 drive on the Makana 100. Thank you 😊
Glad I could help!
Any modifications have to be done to use the mirage drive?
Now they just need to sell it without their own drive
Awesome to see you still doing this years later
whats up bro it had been 7 years! i have been grinding much on youtube, it works lol luckily the channel is about what i do for fun
@@AliexFolgueira One of the keys to success is doing something you love.
Alex, great review. I am older dude with some fairly bad knees. 6’ and 170#, excellent shape. Q: is there enough adjustment in the hobie drive and seat on the Makana to stretch out and not be cramped up and having to short stroke? Love you channel and reviews!
I just broke the XDrive that came with my Makana 100 the second time I used it. Do you know if hobie drive GT parts are compatible? I can not find the sprocket been sold by Vibe.
If the Hobie drive is a “10” what would you say the vibe drive that comes with it is?
I’m starting to lean towards Hobie. The needed for fins is a must in my area. I keep on having to clear my propel drive or pulling it up once. It gets quite annoying at times. Is it better to get the Vibe Makana 100 or Hobie Outback 2018 or newer?
Hobie have been having so many issues lately. If you want a Hobie kayak, find a dedicated Hobie dealer and make sure you ask them about how they honor warranties. The Hobie Outback 2024 is a great kayak if it doesn't break, but it's also $3000! Personally, I would get a Makana with a Hobie 180 drive.
What happened if we put the cart Kayak under the kayak when the kayak is in the water and we paddling?
Hobie drive system is way more advanced than the copy cats right now.
Hey Aliex, how does the stability compare to the 11.5 hobie compass? Wife wants something a little more stabile
can you make a review of a hoodoo kayak please…please…
My x drive for my SW125 cables snapped and the chain broke as well . Where do I get replacement parts ?
i would go to vibe dot com and reach out thru the support page, i would also get spares, or you can buy the hobie ones on amazon, for the older mirage drive gotta see what fits here is an amazon affiliate link amzn.to/3UykrXj
@@AliexFolgueira do you know if the red idler cables and chains fit the x drive ?
I looks like it fit, looks similar to the vibe chains, I can't guarantee it will fit but being Amazon you can always return them. I can check with vibe tomorrow see If they fit
@@AliexFolgueira please do! I would appreciate it. I can’t seem to get a reply from them .
you can order it from vibe directly but, I really not sure when they are going to send it vibekayaks.com/products/vibe-parts-x-drive-chains?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR0jDclGU7p935y1nL1HQ35UJ7lhOQuHz05YxIr5QZigN6NUlM6MqMEDVYI_aem_ATZFqq4736cZEOYtuLcjCQtuisRoxqXkQVxjhyuf1FDq4HnKVdICZc9Hv4BDoHTt9Rxs9Kw-h2vtRhfg8JSLIgUW
the ones from amazon should work, you can always return them if they dont work.
Aliex, great video as asual! Very informative as well. I have the shearwater and was thinking about getting mirage drive 180 kickup V2 w turbo fins. Would the vibe xdrive pod fit the turbo V2 mirage drive 180? thanks keep up the great video.
Turbo only makes fins a bit larger everything else is the same
@@AliexFolgueira fantastic, thank you sir
@@AliexFolgueira if i was to put a miarge drive 180 on the shearwater, will it fit with the existing xDrive Pod or do i have to get third party drive pod? If so, which adapter would you recommend? Thanks Aliex
Another great video! 👏
Glad you enjoyed it!
I would like to see speeds with bixpy and fin drive
i need to do that video
Does the hobie 180 drive come with a new pod? Or does it fit with the one that came with the x-drive from vibe?
thats the pod the boat came with
I've always fished from Hobie pa12s, for almost 9years now! I've never owned anything else. I love my PA12 360. It is a heavy yak! I have couple places I don't think I could get it because of how steep the incline is to small lakes. Maybe with help but I'm mostly going out by myself. What cheaper kayaks would you recommend for a back up extra extra light kayak for extremely hard to get & launch locations?? Not trying to spend much $ but I don't want a piece of garbage either! My only stipulations on it is, need be able to stand up & fish. Need to be extremely light. I probably only ever use it 5-10% of the time. I know you tried about everything out there. By the way. My 32ah 14.8v amped outdoors lithium battery has been awesome! I can take 2-3 trips without charging
Hey Cole happy to hear the amped outdoors battery is dong great! This boat is very light and stable, you can use your pa 180 drive on it, not sure if they sell the makana without the drive
The pelican catch 110 HD is pretty light and affordable in comparison, but it'll handle like a truck compared to a Hobie
Can you import them to Australia 😊
Great video!! Im 6'2" tall and 190 lbs would this kayak be comfortable for me?
i dont see why not, holds 400# you can move the seat back the pedal cranks forward
Good vid brother
Thanks Philip
Did you have to modify anything for the hobie drive to fit? I just received my vibe Makana and the pedal drive was not working correctly and it actually broke today
Reach out for warranty, on the hobie drive? I just plug it in
My xd vibe drive broke right away, turns out vibe has been having many issues with them. Probably will end up upgrading to hobie drive eventually! Thanks
@@oliviafitzgerald6716 i hear lots of break in on those new x drives
@oliviafitzgerald6716 hey I had a problem with my Xdrive breaking too. The teeth in the chain kept stripping. I had to repair it twice. I actually just got a hobie 180 drive totally based off of this video. Can't wait to get it in the water!
Better buy? Makana 100 or Hobie Mirage passport?
man hobie with this crack fown in warranty have left a bad taste, i would get Makana
@@AliexFolgueira Thoughts on Lightning Kayaks Kick 106?

Nice one
A $1000.00 for pedals!😢But nice if it makes it easier for you.
