I'm one of those hardtail owners looking to go full sus. Been looking at this bike all winter and this review pretty much seals the deal for me. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I really appreciate it.

I love that you talked about this bike's target market first. I was pondering if I needed something with more travel but I was pretty much sold with your explanation. Subbed with thanks!

Great video--the only one in the world that shows helpful close-up shots of the bike (I'm installing a dropper post on mine--so very helpful to see the routing and bushings) Happy with our D7 so far after 6 trail rides.

You are a fantastic reviewer. I'm stunned you don't have significantly more subscribers. Subscribed.

Your channel deserves a lot more subscribers, these videos are great! I'm going to start saving my pennies for this bike.

Love this channel great work phil and could you pls do a review of The Marin rift zone 2

Another top notch video Phil! Keep up the good work, really enjoy the content. Now get that Rift Zone 3 haha!

I’m looking at getting this bike but have some saving to do since I’m a teen with a part time job but every time I look at this bike I want it even more and it seems to be a fantastic option so can’t wait to get my hands on one and great vid btw

Excellent review Phil, as always! It answered a few questions I had on this brand.

Gr8 video Trail Talk Mtb. Loads of info and really fun to watch. I'm also planning to buy my first full suspension bike. Probably a polygon N8 it would mean the world to me. If u did a review on the N8 polygon

Great review mate! Made me consider much fun you will have for $2k. Freedom, exercise, mates, challenges, fresh air, etc. Now imagine how much money people are spending on cars or 4x4 bits and bobs that they will either never use and certainly not get the same amount of enjoyment out of. No brainer.

What a fantastic video phil..uff🔥. I booked d7 through a dealer in India , unfortunately large size is not available. I saw this video almost 10+ times. Pwoli video☺️

Am looking forward to the comparison to the Merida and Norco. Cross shopping those three so would really like to hear your views.

Great vid. I’m looking at getting one these. Need something for long ride duties. Did ever do a follow up vid on this bike??

All 3 of the people you described who would buy this bike are me haha. Thank you for the review, I want a dual suspension bike I can send down trails on the weekend but I refuse to fork out $5,000-$8,000 on a Trek. I'll be buying this bike tonight from bike sales! Subbed.

Well said, one of the best reviewer I enjoy.. I feel like buying it as soon.

Very thoroughly informative, thank you!

Great review mate! Just what I was looking for, cheers

Kicking this one around for a daughter who is verrry new to the sport, but she might go with the D5 and do upgrades as her skill increases.

Great review! I'm considering this bike and a couple of other entry-level dual-suspension bikes for my 10-year-old son who has been riding for 18 months. I'll watch the comparison with the Marin and Norco with interest. Thanks again

Great vid Phil

just ordered mine and glad I have after seeing your video, very informative

Greatly appreciated if you could Please please please do the review between the polygon and Marin these are the 2 bikes i have been looking at for my upgrade.

I have a Marin hawk hill 1, I think this might be my next bike.

Hey buddy... You'd make a great teacher. This video is awesome I can't wait to check out more!

This is the 1st bike I bought on my way back from a 15yr hiatus from Mtb. I changed brakes and tires and now the bike is faster then my YT Jeffsey and my Ibis Ripliy CF. I highly highly recommend, no need to spend $3-$4k more for other bikes.

great vid mate!

Great review planning to purchase this D7 2021 but still undecided to go to expensive full sus or to polygon

my future bike, still saving!

What would you recommend for fork and rear shock upgrade in the future (max travel)? Great video as always!

thank you so much great review!

Nice vid you just earned a new sub

This video was a great help! I have been thinking of getting a full squish. I went over a big drop on my hard tail and after landing my ankles were burning because I landed so hard on my hard tail XD I love going fast on black trails and really would like a new upgrade so do you think this would be a good bike for me? I love riding aggressive too. Like how you rode on this video. Oh and also your videos are amazing!!

Thanks for the vid. I love my D7 but still havent found a sweet spot with the suspension. I wish xfusion had a chart. I weigh 145lbs and trying to find a good middle for jumps but also be able to grip the downhills and rock gardens. Right now I have 150psi in rear with 2 clicks of rebound and 80psi in the front with middle rebound. Have you discovered anything new for your suspension since the video? thanks

Great review! Me and my buddy are looking to buy one, he is 177cm so right between a medium and large. Which way do you think he should go???

Rad! When's the aggressive hardtails review coming?

Nice video I think this is gonna be my next bike

Wow it comes with a dropper post now. I have the 2017 one which unfortunately pedal bobs way too much.

Very helpful. I ordered mine ;)

Awesome bike and specs but one thing I don't understand is no boost in the front. Polygon does boost front and back on their Xtrada hardtails and here you have a full squish, kinda like the full suspension version of the Xtrada 8, and no boost in the front. You'd think boost would be a more critical feature on the FS bikes over the hardtails.

Weekend warrior here who does mostly XC and Trail, who's also getting his first full-suspension (or dual, as you guys call it ;) ) bike in almost 20 yrs. So I'd say this is a good fit, lol. I hate 29" wheels, so if I can work a medium frame, I'm set!

Nicely Explained

Very curious what you think about the price jump on 2021 D7. I really liked that 2020 price point.

Great review, I am a weekend rider, around the sutherland shire. I cannot decide on this or the T8. I am 5.10" do I go Medium with 27" and which do you suggest. I am 52 so not going mental on the tracks. cheers. Ps I will use your links to buy and support you. Oh I have a 32" inside leg will the droppper work ok for me? Cheers

Thanks for the great review/1st impression. Mate would you recommend this bike for a 6.5 tall person?

I’ve been looking at the Merida 120 600 for a while. For almost 1k less this is really tempting! Great video!

Great review mate. There has been a few changes for the 2021 model, what's your opinion on the new specs?

Polygon definitely best bang for your buck out there. I got d7 3 months ago. All though I went a little crazy upgrading it lol.

You can review my Polygon Siskiu T8 if you want. I changed the breaks and tires tho.

Hi Phil, do you have a current discount code for bicyclesonline? I remember you saying you had one in the past but can't find it atm.

I am a very experienced rider looking to get into a 29er as an upgrade from my 26”Pivot Mach 5. Trails in my area are very well groomed. Would this bike suit my needs?

Hi Phil, love your content! had a bit of an impulse buy and bought the 2020 Rockshox deluxe select debon air shock for my D7. I now notice there's not much adjustment. Do you think it's an upgrade or have I wasted my money?

Love this video! I may have missed this (and it seems like it is), but is the cable for the dropper post internal?

I just bought one for $1,399 so I think I got a great deal according to your review, thanks for the vid!!!

Hello, I’m picking one of these up but have a really basic question. I’m getting back into biking after years being away. But, for the next year or so, I’m not gonna be doing much trail riding. Can you suggest a kickstand solution for this bike? Seems like a crazy question for a bike like this-but will be doing a bunch of around the city riding at first.

Thanks for the awesome review! Whats your take on the Polygon Siskiu D7 vs. Calibre Bossnut vs Giant Stance vs. Canyon Neuron AL 6.0? They all seem to be priced in the mid $1500 (USD) range. Would you say any of them is a clear pick?

Do you think I should buy the d7 or a specialised fuse 27.5 hardtail for around the same price

With making a brake up grade would you change the discs of the wheel or just the bit that clamps down?

should i get the 27.5/M or the 29/L? Im around 5”10 and been contemplating in which size i should get, cheers mate!

What would be your opinion on this bike vs the d6 model and value for money?

I’m trying to put a chain guide and smash guard but don’t have ISCG bracket, what would work with this bike?

Is there any problem of pedal strikes in this bikes and what's your view on 29er tyres makes this bike heavy and problem in short corners areas

Hey mate great review! I'm unsure about tyre size atm I don't know if I should go the safe option of 27.5 or 29 wheels !

Another great video mate. Looking at one of these in size small for my son. Do you know if the small frame can fit a 600ml water bottle?

Hey man, great vid. What (tubless) tire combo would you recommend for this bike. I ride trails but slightly more on the XC side of mtb as I live in Brisbane (many hills). Thanks!

I have a rockshox pike and I have to add like 20psi more than they recommend as well. Their recommendation usually puts me right above 30% sag

Hi , I am 176cm right on edge of Med and large. Bicylces online fit recommends Med.Keen on 29'er .What do you think?

Is the riftzone 2 really worth the extra money over the polygon siskiu d7?

Hey mate great review I love your channel, and I’m about to upgrade to a dual suspension but I’m not sure what is better the d7 without dropper or giant stance 2 what would you recommend, thanks !

Great review, content and production! How does this compare to Marin Hawk Hill 1 or Rift Zone 1? How sturdy is this type of Rear suspension compared to the Marin Hawk Hill/Rift Zone?

Hi im about to buy a second hand d7 what should i be aware of Any thoughts welcomed

Great bike product from Indonesia....thanks for this review guys 👍👍🚴

Good video but next time I think the music should be a little quieter while you’re riding, I think a lot of people like here more trail and less music, or that’s just me idk 👍🏻

hi mate.. any bash guard u can recommend?

Thanks for this review... I just recently bought this for my wife... Still waiting since it's back ordered. Had a question about the tires and rims... Are they tubeless ready??

I have one of this. Going to review it as well

Great review! Thanks. I want to get the D7 for my girlfriend. She’s 1,64m height, so she falls in between frame size small and medium. She is a starter rider. Which size do you recommend I get for her? Thank you for your help.

T8 next please.

Very affordable bike. Many new bikers go to mtb because of this affordable bicycle

I’d like to better understand what modern or progressive geo means. Food for thought that could be your next vid. I always hear low bb steap seat angles, what that actually means would be a good vid & a what else on the topic would be helpful for us newer mtb folks.

Hey mate great upload. Just subscribed, just wondering what your thoughts on the siskiu t7 compared to this?

T7 next please

What a awesome Bike for the money, this is going to be my next bike for sure !

Any thought on Polygon's latest hardtail, Polygon Diablo? Hopefully you can do some review on that one.

Would one of these be good for. 6 foot 4 120kgs person ?

Hi...could you please inform the travel of dropper post suit for D7, 150 mm or 125 mm? Thanks

What's the title of the music at 5:22? I kinda like it. :D

Hi, can the Rockshox Recon on that bike be adjusted from 120mm to 130mm?

Hey try to review a Mondraker trail/enduro bike

Is the full review out ?

Hey mate, love this review. I’m very tempted by the D7 but do you think it’s worth spending a bit extra and going for the T7?

Would you also recommend the d5 as a good starting dual suspension bike

Hey man! What's the difference of this and the 2021 model? Thanks so much!

Which performs better, SLX or XT?

I’m 5’10 230lbs would you recommend this bike for someone my size? Really want to get into mountain biking but feeling a Bit overwhelmed with different setups, geometries, and the lot. What I’m looking for is something that I can build my skills on versus having to completely change bikes to go to the next level. My riding would be a mix of road riding during the week with some paved trails thrown in and dirt trails and fun riding on weekends. My budget is a max of $1700usd.

I'm 165cm, can I get a Medium 27.5? Its available straight away

I’m 178cm. Would frame size M and 29” wheels be alright for me as I bought that Or should I have bought the L frame? AnywAys amazing content!!!!

I ordered the polygon Siskiu D7 dropper post addition medium frame size with 29ers. Do you know what the biggest width tires I can fit front and rear ?

Do you know when you'll do a comparison with the Norco?
