Make sure to lock tight the bolt just above the battery on the pivots. When it comes loose it will tear into the frame. Also check the bolts one of mine came stripped out. But the bike rides amazing
That thing is sick, after I got an normal enduro bike for the most of the rides I do, than it’ll be time for this one, this one is gonna do a great job as second bike❤😊
I need to go ride that trail with you one day bro 👍 Loving my N8e. Unfortunately, the Di2 group set isn’t available aftermarket to allow the free shift auto shift.
I'm thinking about trying the auto shift I've ordered the Vitus E-Escarpe VR 290 with the ep 600 drive unit 630WH Battery 85 Nm but mine is just the basic rockshox suspension unlike your blingy setup 😂💎
You mentioned that you got this for "$300 more" than the Siskiu T7E. I'm curious where you're seeing that pricing, Polyogon has the N8E for $5,099 vs the T7E at $4,199. Did you purchase direct from Polygon, or did MEC order that in for you? I'm genuinely interested in both of Polygon's offerings here, but MEC doesn't have the Colossus N8E on their site. If you bought direct through Polygon, mind sharing what the end damage was after our Canadian duty, taxes, shipping etc?
Bikes online US has the N8e on sale for $4499… I have a mailbox in Blaine Washington where I get the bikes sent to and I drive them over the border myself… Haven’t paid duty on any bikes yet but I tell them that the bikes are for RUclips reviews.
@@TopToBottomMTB Wow, and they accept that no questions asked? About 10 years ago I went down from Ottawa into NY and PA for BMX racing, just returning with my personal bike was a hassle for me (and a few other riders returning) all being questioned/accused of having bought our bikes in the US and bringing them into Canada. I was able to resolve it by showing pictures of me racing the same bike before the trip. As time goes on, how do you like the Collosus vs the Siskiu? I'm looking at getting my first bike next season, looking at $6500 -$7500 pre-tax budget.
Great content 👌 just wondering how tall are you? Im stuck on size, im 168cm think medium will be to big for me 🤔 im stuck in that in-between S/M range.
@alanroser6031 No worries at all! Sick bike… I love mine! If you’re gonna order one, consider using my link! It’s a free way to tell polygon that you saw my content. Helps me out greatly! 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Range depends on so many factors... Rider weight and input, power mode, incline, temperature, ect... My last ride was 40km, 2000m of elevation, 4hours, and 3000 calories burned...
The spec and value of this bike is insane! Full XT build with Fox suspension!👌🏻 It’s on sale right now for $3999! bikesonline-usa.sjv.io/g1aQ5X Better than any bike in this list.
Nice vids but the amount of braiding you did on these trails.. not cool.. I AM one of the builders on Burke. In this video, you rode a few of the trails my friends and I built and still maintain. We build for everyone's enjoyment and it's all volunteer work so we'd appreciate it if you don't braid the trails. There's a small group of us on Burke and Eagle...
Check out the Canyon Torque:On CF XL frame. It has a 520mm reach. Throw in a 200+ dropper and some high rise handlebars and you'll be good to go. I'm 193cm tall and I normally ride XL bikes but on the Torque:On, I'd grab a Large.

I love mine. It’s truly a beast. My rear shock had a leak but Fox warranty replaced it with the Factory model.
Wow! Nice!
Nice riding! I like the N8E. Gorgeous trails as well!
Thanks! No complaints from this guy!👍🏻
Thanks as always for the killer content!! 🤜🤛

Say the word and I’m there! 🤘🏻 Hopefully one day soon for the Di2🤞🏻
I was hooked!!! Love the bike too
🫶🏻thx homie!
This trail system looks like an absolute dream
That trail is mental 😉. One of my favs.
Which one? The secret one?😉
grear riding man, this trail looks sick, bike is just eating it
How would this bike compare to a specialized turbo levo comp?
This bike is amazing
😍the dream!
Too bad it doesn't have a geo adj so you could mullet it. I believe the BB is just too low.
Could be a little low with the smaller rim... I might try it out anyway... If I do, I'll make a video about it.
@@TopToBottomMTB Looking forward to that 😎

How does this bike do climbing. I mean any issues with the front wheel popping up
What’s sizing like on these. The reach on paper seems longer than most other brands ?
Not too long… just nice and roomy.
Thanks. So stick to normal sizing
Is it better than a comparable Marine Alpine? thanks 😊
🔥🔥

Love the show. wha's the best front shock Sisku D5 to upgrade it to and rear air shock to
I’m a Fox guy… so I’d go with a DPS rear shock and a Fox 32 or 34 up front.
You could look at the Marzochi stuff too… Made in the same factory…
What best front shock and to upgrade it to
What's the best front and rear shock to upgrade it to

Im planning to get the n8xe and want to ask regarding sizing im in between small and medium im 170cm
I’d go medium
Great content 👌 just wondering how tall are you? Im stuck on size, im 168cm think medium will be to big for me 🤔 im stuck in that in-between S/M range.
I’m 5’9” and ride a medium… if you’re between sizes, I’d go smaller. It’s a big bike with a long reach.
@@TopToBottomMTB Thanks for the quick reply, yeah that was my thoughts aswell. Thanks for clarification 👍

What kind of ranges are you getting on one full charge?
Range depends on so many factors... Rider weight and input, power mode, incline, temperature, ect... My last ride was 40km, 2000m of elevation, 4hours, and 3000 calories burned...
How do you like this compared to the bikes you reviewed in the 22/23 top value e mtb video?

How does it go uphill?
My friend Darren and I rode it up the toughest climb I know of in our area.
Check it out!

What does braiding mean? Switching back and forth between trails?
Where in God’s country are these phenomenal trails… 🤤🤤🤤 deary 🫠🫠🫠
