FYI, the Kent seatpost diameter is 30.4mm, which - yes - you won't find a dropper for. However Cane Creek and numerous chinese knock off brands make an adapter that will convert 30.4 > 28.6 or 27.2, for which there are loads of options.

You can have a dropper and a front derailleur at the same time. There's a different lever that's placed on top of the bars to not interfere with the shifter.

I got the Polygon Xtrada 6 at the beginning of this year. (I upgraded from Giant Talon 4). Everything about the bike is great for the trails I like to ride. It is a very grounded, stable bike and definitely worth the money. I think I got it on sale for $699 or something. Bikes Online actually forgot the box with the QR skewer and pedals, but I sent one email, and they sent all the stuff I was missing and more in about 2 days. One thing you left out from the video, which is a weird detail, is that this fork actually has rebound dampening! On a coil fork, which is really weird, but there is a very noticeable difference between min and max. All I need for it now is a dropper post, which is 27.2mm. All in all would recommend getting this bike 👍👍

8:49 As someone who sells bikes for a living, it's better to have external cable routing for mountain bikes, especially lower end. There's literally no downside. It's cheaper, easier to fix the crappy parts that come on them, and easy to upgrade or remove.

They recently dropped the price of the silverback stride sport to €299 for Black Friday. It’s an incredible bike with internal cable routing, hydraulic disc breaks, 1x8 drivetrain… Although the drivetrain may seem low I ride up the hill I live on every day and the largest cog can easily get you up some really steep sections. I don’t to much fast flat land riding but goin long distances if comfortable and fun, especially with the easily adjustable fork it came with.

External cable routing is the best option if you are going to work on your bike yourself. Especially with hydraulic brakes. Internal cable roughing is a gimmick that makes your bike worse. Only exception is if you put the bike on chairlifts. Then getting the cables out of the way is good for durability.

@user-gv7fq5ct9g 8 ай бұрын

Good for durability ? Is it because of no risk of damage by chairlift ?

@RvaModelCars 7 ай бұрын

I did this exact shopping a few months ago. I was looking for my 14 year old son a good hard tail that could take some abuse and be a ton of fun, and be upgradeable. I ended up catching a great sale from Salsa. I bought him a Rangefinder for a little over $600. Advent X shifting, with MASSIVE 27.5, 2.8 Maxxis tires. Tekro hydraulic brakes. Tapered head tube. 120 mm XCM fork with lockout. Internal routing and ready for a dropper post. Needless to say my kid has had an absolute blast on this bike. It could have easily made the number 1 spot on this list for the price, however the price is back to $899 right now. Seems to go on and off sale frequently.

@TopToBottomMTB 8 ай бұрын

Love the salsa frames. And that sounds like a sweet deal! Glad to see another smart shopper out there!🤜🏼🤛🏼

@MrPristas 8 ай бұрын

Don’t get me wrong, your list was perfect. Especially considering that the Salsa went back up in price. I looked closely and considered every bike on your list. I was practically calling the next bike up and several times I was correct. Ha! I actually just ordered a Norco Storm 4 for my oldest son. He’s not an avid biker but if he chooses to start trail riding, the Storm should be easily upgradeable. He just needs a good capable commuter for college next fall. Oh, and one last detail about the Salsa… the fork is a through axle, and my LBS assembled and sold it to me for the Salsa sale price. Now I have a new relationship with that shop. In fact they are dropping Kona, because they are going direct to consumer so there’s no money to be made on that brand. Instead they picked up Norco! And yes, once again they gave me the online sale price. My Storm 4 should be here any day now. I’m super stoked. Just wish the storm had a tapered head tube. That would have made it perfect. But, I didn’t want a Walmart bike, and $450 used or new was my absolute cap for a commuter mountain bike.

Wow I didn't know Kona Lava Dome was still in the catalog. Back around 1994/1995 I was a teenager and mowed lawns, washed cars and saved all my birthday/xmas money. Saved up $747 after a year or so and bought a white Kona Lava Dome with RockShok Quadra forks, Kona A / B drive tires, Kona race light seat post, stem and bars all from memory. I knew the catalog on that thing as I couldn't wait to afford and buy it. Talk about being in shape back then, I would ride that miles just to hit the trails and then ride home. I was a surprised to see Lava Dome in that list and clicked the link right away. 25yrs later I still lightly ride from time to time. Bought a newer hardtail a few weeks back. Cannondale Cujo 1 2019 for $320 and almost like new. Still need to figure how to raise the seatpost without the dropper no longer working. (figured it out, just had to push same cable house more into the frame up top and pull a little more out near the crank to give slack for the dropper to be able to be raised up)

Man we used to beat the hell out of a few huffy mountain bikes from toys r us and never have issues. Jumps, trails all of it, its crazy how expensive anything is anymore, but then again my Haro t boy Fatboy frame alone back then was over 400.

I had a 13 speed huffy with front suspension back in the early 90s from Bradley's lol and road that and a 18 speed huffy I got alil after in my early teens everywhere. Only stopped because I got a license shortly after 😂 now I'm 40 and want back in the mountain bike game having a family with 2 boys now
