I just got mine about a week ago, loving it! Amazing bike. The squeak you’re hearing on the bike is probably from the rear shock mount. At the top of it where the bearings meet the nylon squeaks if it’s not torqued down enough. Enjoy! My favorite bike for sure, especially for the price.
Man that is crazy I was looking at getting a status and wasn't sure how it would be for my local trails. I come to TH-cam and the first thing I see is chestnut ridge my local trail. Hell yeah
I'm between Status 140 and Stumpjumper alloy! Ride in illinois with more climbs than descents and buddies said stumpy would be better for around here? How was climbing on it after a couple rides?
I think In Your case the stumpy would be a little better too , status had noticeable movement when pedaling which you can lock it out but I think you’d like stumpy more for what’s around you
That’s awesome !! I am considering buying the frame and building one up for my local trails to replace my hardtail. So I at least have full suspension. Is the bike worth it ?
Status is made as a mullet so that’s how I left it … you could do a 27.5 front but probably have to up the front travel to keep the geo the same .. was an awesome bike tho
@@shrednwithsherm6758 thank you. Also can the 140 handle some enduro. I want it mostly for flowy trail and jumps and stuff like that but also be able to handle some enduro and some tougher terrain if it needs to. Can the 140 do that or would u suggest the 160? Im torn between the two.
Yo man it has ended up being my favorite bike out of my fleet which is crazy for being a shorter travel! It feels just as capable as my enduro and it’s way more fun as the same time!!! I took it to snowshoe bike and Bryce bike park and it ripped!! It’s definitely worth getting one for the price and build that they come stock! Let me know if ya get one !
@@shrednwithsherm6758 I'm exactly the same size and I don't know if I should get the s3 or s4. How is it going so far? would keep the s3 or try the s4?
@@krankertigaz either would work I think if I would of got the 160 I would of went s4 but for the shorter travel I got s3 for more of a trail bike feel at my local trails , so I’d say depends what you ride more of and go from there but you’d be happy with either size
Does the oval sprocket feel goofy on the flat? I've been strongly considering grabbing up a Status bc I love the factory kit for the price and really want a mullet but I'm a little unsure with all the reviews I've seen saying it sucks at climbing... Then again I'm currently ripping my NS Zircus dirt jumper on my local trails in PA which are about as much climb as decend so I'm sure any bike with a cassette will be an improvement. Also looking at the Poly t8 but no mullet😔
These frames are on insane discount. I was just talking to Jutt about putting one of these together then i find this video 🤘😂
Just got mine yesterday!! Killer deal on frame. Can't wait. I got an s4

@shrednwithsherm6758 thanks man! Keep up the great content!
I just put the new pike 140mm on my hard tail , so I think it would pair perfectly with the status 140

Do you have the mullet set up or both 29 or both 27.5 and how do you like it?

Do you still have the Status and are you still loving it? Just wondering what your impressions are now after having the bike for longer?

@@shrednwithsherm6758 how is the climbing 6 months later after spending some time on it?
Love it bro
Sweet bike! I've not ridden Chestnut for almost a year now! P. S , no carbon bars anymore? 😁😁
Awww man you gotta get back out there!! And correct no more carbon sir haha !
What year is the status?
2021
have you tried the 160 mm version yet
I had a 160 version, I build from the frame up paired with a marzzochi z1 170, and magura mt7s very stable bike downhill was a dog on climbs though
So sick! We gotta ride together sometime there
For sure bro !
Love it
Thanks 👌🏼
What size are you ? And what size your bike is?
5’11” , size s3 , could of gotten a s4 too but wanted it for a more trail bike so went smaller size
@@shrednwithsherm6758 I am 5’9 and I am thinking on going small ?????? Or should médium be better
