I picked up a size L Chilcotin in the fall and couldn't be happier with it. It is definitely heavier then my CC frame M size Bronson I previously rode. I was concerned about going with the heavier bike because I climb a lot. I live in Whistler but never ride the bike park, just riding the trails throughout the valley. It actually climbs better then my Bronson did. I think some of my climbs have even been faster. I've cleared many sections climbing that I had never cleared before. The suspension is supportive even in the open setting I don't need to firm it up when climbing. I don't notice any pedal bob at all and the traction uphill is amazing. Going downhill I'm so happy I sized up to a large frame. I'm 5'9" and Knolly recs a medium for my height, but the large frame is fast and stable. I do notice it takes a bit more effort to get in the air but I'm not a huge jumper anyway. I used to feel like I was bashing the sh*t out of my Bronson on the downs, but the Knolly can take anything I throw at it easily.

@jeffsharp4982 Жыл бұрын

First off, thanks for such a great update/ review video! I could tell from the first Chilcotin video you weren’t digging it that much and as a self admitted fan boy of Knollys it wasn’t the affirmation I craved from a pro such as yourself. Kidding aside, the main reasons I first loved Knollys are their looks, and the simple fact that a Knolly was the first what I’d call modern geo MTB I’d ever ridden and it instantly gave me so much more confidence than I had prior. Next reason was I joined a group of fellow Knolly riders in southern Utah for what we called Knollfest, if I remember correctly. There we were joined by none other than Noel Buckley designer/engineer/owner of Knolly bikes. Such a cool guy, and that pretty much cemented my fan boy status for Knolly bikes haha. Having said that, it’s not a completely biased fan boy status, as my first couple of years on that first Knolly (2016 Endorphin), I had the opportunity to travel to some cool mtb destinations where I demo’d some industry leading trail bikes, like a 1st gen Ripmo, Pivot Switchblade and Trail 429, to name a few, and I honestly wouldn’t have traded that Knolly for any of them. Currently I’m on my 4th Knolly, a new Warden 168 after having been on a WaRden 160 for the prior couple of years. I wish I had the understanding of suspension you do, as this one seems less plush than I’d like. Maybe I need to remove some volume spacers…. Anyhow sorry for the long post, and thanks for the fun videos!

@noelbuckley Жыл бұрын

Jeff S: Thank you for the kind words! I look forward to when things are back to normal(ish?) and we can get together and ride bikes again! Maybe this Spring - why not? :) Jeff KW: yes, our bikes are quite progressive: we have terrain that requires a fair bit of bottom out resistance as you know. The shock that you installed on the bike was from another brand - perhaps it might be worth looking at the tune and seeing if there is a volume spacer that can be reduced or removed? Warm regards and thank you for the update on the Chilcotin!

@Abendago77 Жыл бұрын

I've had a Knolly Chilcotin 167 since October 2021, but I've been running a 180mm Fox 38 in the front, and the DHX2 coil shock on the rear and have to say it's an extremely plush forgiving feeling rear end with the most traction I've ever experienced under braking, I highly recommend trying out the coil on this bike, it responds extremely well to it! This bike is the most forgiving one I've ever ridden when it starts getting steep and super gnarly, the trails and features I can point it down with reckless abandon consistently blows me away and inspires confidence! Also, Idefinitely agree that you can feel the weight on the climbs, I've been tempted recently to go with a lighter weight wheel set, especially after being completely blown away with my Berd wheels on my Ibis, I may just have to buy a the Hawk30 wheels for the big bike!

Great review. I think you’d love the Pivot Firebird small frame. It has almost the same geo as the switchblade medium frame but has a 64 or 64.6 degree head tube angle and of course the longer travel

@JeffKendallWeed Жыл бұрын

I'll skip the size small Firebird, I loved the medium! If anything, I'd want to lengthen the rear end by 2-3mm, slacken seat angle by .5 degree, and slacken head angle by .5 degree. Would end up slightly longer but maybe slightly more balanced.

Been on a warden their 27.5 170/170~ bike it’s killer. I live in the desert so the slow speed tight tech is all I ride. It’s such a killer bike. I agree that when you open it up it doesn’t quite hold up but I don’t think it really holds me back. I had a sentinel before this bike. I easily prefer the Knolly. It is so much easier to climb tech with and tight trails with gnar. My warden built up is 35 pounds flat so the weight really doesn’t bother me. I also don’t have the progression issues you did idk if the warden has less progression but I have it setup with 30% recommended sag and a super deluxe not a x2? I can hit bottom when I need too feels really good to me. Thanks for the review though they are sick bikes cool to see them get more content out there.

Wasn't sure if somebody else already commented... If you switched the shock to the 167 configuration, you would have pulled the bike for a 170 fork already, and geometry changes would have been minimal. Don't have the exact numbers off hand, but they'd definitely be in knolly's site. Possible the different feel also relates to a different shock tune, or possibly to how a longer stroke shock's progression alters the ride feel

As the chilcotin is a bit burlier in frame and ramps up more quickly than an Ibis Ripmo AF, would you recommend it to larger riders looking for that playful enduro bike?

Sounds to me like unlike the spire, firebird, and ripmo af, it would be hard to have the knolly as your "do everything bike. " but then again, if you wanted a bigger park bike, the spire still might be the better choice, I guess the knolly might just be a bike to fill a niche? Also, with that super progressive rear suspension, I wonder how it would feel with a coil shock (not that it needs the extra weight)

I love my Knolly Chilcotin! I think I got a 162.5 stroke shock on mine so it's a 170/160 setup. I am curious what your suspension settings are. I notice that it is pretty difficult to get that supportive feeling I'm looking for as I think it feels like I'm not getting into the travel, but I don't know if it's the progression or if I have too many tokens in my shock. I also haven't gotten the Zeb to feel exactly where I want it either. I also have a Knolly Fugitive and definitely recommend that bike for anyone looking for a hardcore all-a-rounder. I got the Fugitive with Fox suspension and I feel like Fox is easier to setup for my needs and feels better initially. It would be awesome if you would share your suspension setup on this bike for some insight. Cheers!

Neutral was surprisingly more linear suspension wise, and felt good. Slack mode was more progression than I really needed. When I swapped to the 167 length (65mm stroke) shock, the rear suspension feel wasn't noticeably different- that final 5mm of stroke has so much progression that you'd only really ever get into it on MASSIVE hits. I actually emailed Knolly to ask about this, they said ya, that's how it's supposed to be.

Oh man, I should post some of the data! I have gone towards running just enough progression that I can land from ~6 feet to flat and not totally destroy my wrists, which sounds like a lot, but if you hit many big jumps it's nowhere close to what the freeride guys run. Maybe a touch more progression than the average racer guy. I do try to run minimal damping- low speed in particular. Just enough high speed comp and rebound to control those hits. I found that using the spring as much as possible creates a really nice feel.

@@JeffKendallWeed I just demoed a 167/170 chilcotin in our local shop couple days ago (probably gonna take one soon before the sale ends), same zeb fork, but rockshox super deluxe shock, large frame with my CB mallet DH pedals on, weighted in the shop shows 36lbs, I was surprised how light it was, cause it feels quite bit heavier than my Bronson V4 during riding both up and down. Since you mentioned your bike weights 38 lbs, I am wondering why, unless their scale is not working properly? lol it has exo casing tire front and back tho, what tires you running? the stock build comes with exo both, I probably gonna swap the rear to a DD casing.
