Where was Emily?
Emily Rocks!! Go Canada Go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Doddy towers over that bike!!!
Also, non-boost! Love it.
Saddle is on stepover height lol
What a dream Bike!!
Fine review
He makes it look like a slopestyle bike
Looking at Doddy standing next to it I thought it was going to be 26" or 24" wheels. LOL
When is that grip lockout going to production and offered to the public?
Lovely bike,
The bike looks like its made for dwarfs next to doddy 😀
Cool bike ridden by a cool lady
What's happened to the rock shox rs1 forks? No one seems to be racing with them anymore. I heard they were a pain to replace a wheel with.
Is it possible to finding that linkage?
Or is anyone making shocks that fit the top fuel now???
That's one small bike! Maybe Neil should had it presented :D
hahahahahah
Is her front tire installed backwards?
That bike makes Doddy look like a giant!
The bontragor IKON tire...
They do look like bootleg ikons
White is nice so clean
How tall is this Doddy fella anyway ?
No whistle on that Hub?
Very beautiful bike... looks very tiny beside Dod jaja (imagine compared with his Nuke.. O_O)
Thx
Oh please have a video of sorry trying to ride that bike, man that would look funny!
Why is it non boost?
3:30 wow small!
22.5# seems kind of heavy no?
Does a negative stem make a big difference with climbing or descending?
Steezy Masters I would say yes. But I think it's for bike fit. Her handle bars are same height as her saddle. With her short legs it's hard to get the handlebars low without flipping stem. If handlebars are too high, it's harder to climb.
Better for climbs so you can be over the bike, and for XC the bars angle provides that speed needed positioning
Doddy you make that bike look like its a kiddies bike
Hey all definitely throwing all the weight forward their nice piece though cheers all 🍻
Tomi Saaranen Hey Tomi Yea almost as regular as a heartbeat or should I say as regular as a heartbeat cheers I hope the snow will start melting so you can once again RIDE RIDE RIDE.
Yeah Thx same here, really when the snow goes then I will totally RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE ROCK RIDE RIDE
Front tire looks to be a blacked out Ikon from Maxxis
0:03 Hey Doddy, is this a kids bike? ha ha ha
Why no boost on the rear wheel?
Matt Larsen Probably not needed for a smaller wheel size and Emily's light body weight. For XC racers every grams matters when looking to get a full suspension bike weight down. I'm actually surprised her bike isn't lighter being that small and no dropper post.
can you use non-boost wheels on a boost frame? adapter needed ?
Maxxis Ikon with blacked out logos on the front
wonder why she used an ikon and not an xr2 ???
Probably prefers the maxxis compounds over the bontrager compounds
wonder why no ikon rear then
Probably prefers its rolling speed I assume its a harder compound
Is that a full bottle on the bike when you weighed it? You should learn form GCN you remove the bottles and Garmin before you weigh the bike
I would like to see doddy ride it😁
140mm in the back???
Am I the only one tho doesn't like loud hubs ? I want something like NOBL hubs - soundless
Gorgeous bike for a gorgeous lady!
She's so little, that thing looks like a bmx next to Doddy
DODDY you look like a GIANTIC GIANT next to that bike!
Check my profile, it's only a medium Giant 😉
Doddy how tall are you? In centimeters please :D
She was with Fox. What happened?
Shin I used to ride trials, we used to run a road cassette and then a grip shift that we’d cut down to about 20mm wide and then run it the (wrong) side of a mushroom grip to keep it out the way and make sure you never accidentally twisted it pulling up on a gap or something. Boring little story for you all 😂
I really like to know why cross-country Riders aren't all using dropper posts now? It must be so horrible not being able to adjust the saddle. Is it just a weight issue? Because in the past they were all riding hardtails and now they're starting to switch to full suspension so why not the dropper post? What's your take on it?
Obviously because they tested it and it's not faster... Easy right?
I find it interesting that the bike is kitted out in RS fork and shock and SRAM Eagle kit, and cranks... but SHIMANO XTR pedals!?!? Does SRAM need to make a pedal to keep the sponsored riders on all their kit?
Doddy makes the bike look like a bmx
Weight is not accurate due to the Water Bottle. I would say that bike has a weight of under 10 Kilo's...👌
Doddy makes that bike look like a toy!
3:30 OMG this looks like toy :D
That's like a kids bike with Doddy behind it
Does Doddy always carry a tape measure with him?
Grip shift is so hideous it always was hideous out so glad to see it out of my life for good and now for some reason people want anything to do with it doesn't make any sense to me
5'2" and all woman!!!!
The bike looks like a kids bike compared to Doddy :D
Doddy fs your giant lol he stole a kids bike lol brill good detail in there like the saram egal looks goid on there .
Hi!
#AskGMBN
Any recommendations for a 27.5+ frame with threaded bottom bracket and tapered steerer tube and a 31.9 Seatpost hole.
Pls. under $300
Ragley Big Wig
thks but too heavy...
Ur not gonna get a that light frame under 300 you need atleast 1500
For $300, you will have to go used. Any new bike bike at that price is a waste of $300.
oh yeah sure did it help
i m going with the Chinese carbon frame
Haha that is NOT a bontragger tire up front
How do you know that?
no logos, looks like a MAXXIS ikon
Thats TINY I mean TINY
Surprisingly heavy bike.
I see a couple things with Emily's set that might make it less then optimum:
1.) The seat post saddle combination, by running the saddle that far back it prevents the saddle from providing any suspension. Ideally you want the saddle in the middle of the rails so they rails can act like leaf springs so they can deflect and provide some cushion for the rider. (Solution: Trek should make Emily a custom seat post).
2) The second problem I see is also related to Emily's forward position in that her center of gravity is further forward then what the designers of the frame probably designed for at least in theroy. I say theroy because women have a lower center of gravity then men so her having her weight forward on the bike might actually help things. It would be intersting to see her front wheel/back wheel weight distribution in comparison to other riders on the team because this will effect handling, suspension settings, and tire selection.
Theroy?Lol who tf are you?Never heard of you ridimg world cups
If anything, the saddle in that position will have more suspension since its in more of a cantilever set up, and most of the flex in a saddle comes from the shell flexing. As for COG, its not stationary on a bike, and is affected by so many things, that I doubt a few CM would make a huge difference, and can easily be tuned out.
Nice BMX, doddy
First!!!!!
Cock
Bad spelling my bad lol
Should have never gotten away from FOX and Shimano
I assume that you have some very important sponsors on your channel, but if it would be possible I'd like to know more about chinese carbon frames. I mean they're dirt cheap compared to others. So are they worth their money and how much worse are they?
#AskGMBNtech How bad are Chinese carbon frames actually?
Looks like a little toy next to Doddy
I can't believe it is a "custom build", it looks more like she couldn't find any frame suitable to her and had to adapt to a wrong sized one by using negative
drop stem and putting the saddle way too forward.
29er is minimum pilot 1.65m
pilots lower of 1.65m : 27.5er.
But , eficienc is 27.5 full suspension.
HardTail 29er is king.27.5er Ht not competitive.
ewh silent freehub
maz ditzo...... Why on earth do you want a free wheel that sounds like a buzz saw? When you are putting in mega miles a quite free wheel is good!
what the fuck that's the sound of a 18t star ratchet. Give her A 56t. C'mon dt swiss;;;;;
Look at the saddle rails. Another seat tube angle THAT IS WAAAAAY TO SLACK WAKE UP BICYCLE INDUSTRY.
10.8kg it's impossible...it is more lightweight...
Perhaps water in the bottle?
You have something wrong with that scale I guess. No wy this bike is 10.8kg.
Treks carbon isn’t very light
Lol... looks like a kid bike. No offense Emily.
Sorry, but that back ground music takes away from Doddy's comments. I'd suggest losing the music.
Ugh Trek makes such ugly bikes.
Jay Tee I disagree.
