Use a little silicone lube spray and that cable will pull really easily. An old technician told me a long time ago, “lubrication is the key to a happy and successful life”.

Lovin' my T7! Very comparable specs foruch less than other bikes. I have no real complaints with mine.

My '21 Siskiu T8 I got last May was also shifting fine out of the box. The dropper post is the only assembly step that might give newcomers some pain.

Great video! My buddies and I recently got into riding. After extensive research three of them bought Polygons and mines due in a few days. So far the three we’ve put together all shifted pretty good right off the bat. One has needed minor index adjustments. Very solid bikes for what you pay.

Quick follow-up, my T7 arrived yesterday and unlike the first 3 my buddies and I assembled, this one needed a couple minor adjustments. The indexing was off slightly and the dropper post lever cable set screw was loose causing the lever to not work. Both were easy fixes. First trail ride is today!

Yea, it's a gamble. As far as I know, they are catching up on production and delays aren't too severe.

@@montesim4 It comes with tubes but is super easy to convert to tubeless. You need a pair of tubeless valves and sealant but that's it.

Is it worth changing the stock chain from the KMC to a shimano chain to take advantage of the shimano group set? would like to hear your opinions :)

You wouldn’t notice a difference. I’d spend the money elsewhere - like converting to tubeless

Quick question: The tires and wheels say "tubeless ready" but do you know if they come taped or do I need to pick up some Stan's rim tape?

My dropper post won't drop, any ideas? i bought the 20220 D7
@TheBikeSauce Жыл бұрын
Most likely cable tension isn’t high enough. The dropper lever has a small barrel adjuster, you can try turning it counter clockwise a couple of turns and see if it helps

Hey Bud, anyway you can help me with getting polygon’s support/attention on a defective T8. Less than a year and it’s issue after issue. Last issue is defective shock mount bolt hole that doesn’t let the bolt go all the way through. It just ruined a brand new Float X. ☹️
@TheBikeSauce 2 жыл бұрын
Sheesh. Did you try the normal channels - warranty through bikesonline?
@JordyH33 Жыл бұрын
It's not a defective frame. It's just a fat weld that leaves just enough room for the stock shock. I had to file the frame a little to fit a Float X2 but it fits fine
@davedelarosa319 2 жыл бұрын
My T7 arrived in the same shape as this one, so I'd say that's a Polygon thing. The only other tool that's probably needed, but not included is a shock pump. From what I rode it, I love the bike, but I also received it between knee surgeries so I haven't had a chance to fully run it through the trails, but rather pavement pounding and some gravel as I recuperated between operations.
@TheBikeSauce 2 жыл бұрын
Nice, yea it’s a good bike for sure. Hope you get well soon. New bike is good motivation to get out there!
@davedelarosa319 2 жыл бұрын
@@TheBikeSauce thanks, I appreciate the well wishes. And I was hoping a good one, which is why I went with it, but yeah, really looking forward to using it as intended. Also hoping the comparison is on the D series as the T and N have lots of coverage but other than the D5 for a base intro bike I haven't seen much on the D7.
