Love the channel bud! Nice to see someone from the UK With a perspective of budget friendly bikes. Just a potential vid idea, maybe one on what to look out for on a budget full sus. UK terrain doesn't favour hard tails that much 🤣
Hey buddy, great videos. Looks like you're enjoying your bike! I'm looking to get back into MTBing after coming off badly 10 years ago, so am looking for a new do it all stead and I rode the Cube stereo one77 (aka 170) around the bike shop at the weekend. I'm liking the idea of the 170 travel for that sense of security but don't want to loose my ability to enjoy the short sharp rugged uphill bursts that my local in nature tracks demand. What are your thoughts? My alternative would be a trial bike. From everything I read it sounds like this could be considered a long travel trial bike???
Hello mate. Yeah I have this bike for a few years now and it has served me well. My cube stereo is 160 upfront and 150 in the rear. It more of an endurobike, designed mostly for gravity riding but has the ability to climb too. In my experience this is great bike for bikepark jumps and things but can be a real slog on trail centre days. If you are planning on riding loads of big jumps and drops then 170 is great, but if you are planning on riding trails most of the time then a trail bike is probably the best idea. Slightly shorter travel but more snappy and playful. My next bike will likely be a 150 trail bike and I plan to ride it on all the same trails and jumps that I do now. Something like a stumpjumper evo is more than capeable for trail days or trips to bike park wales etc
Cool. The confidence boost from doing stuff you have to push yourself to tackle is a real buzz isn't it! Please tell me you went to Grogley/Bishops/Hustyns while you were down this way.
Went to old hill the summer before last, loved it but ran out of stuff to ride quite quickly, have you been back recently, seems they've built loads of new stuff?
Yeah I know what you mean. When it was just the two main trails it was easy to run out of fresh things to ride. It is amazing now though. They have added a couple of awesome lines that dwarf the jumps on the old red line. I went and rode them back at the end of summer.
I’ll start by saying that I love my 150 stereo. It’s a really good bike. That’s not really a question I would be able to answer. Am I right in saying that the 240 pro is a kids bike? £2200 seems like a lot for a kids bike. I am sure the bike itself would be awesome, but I guess it would depend on what time of riding you kid is planning on doing and how big of an enduro rider they are.
always a good idea to warm up! sometimes we just get too excited and forget to do it. :)
I've only been out to Farley's mount on my bizango. I want to progress to jumps.
Great work 💪 Just the sort of features you need to build confidence. It bodes well for the season ahead.
Thanks mate. I can’t wait to hit more features!
Nice channel and great video loved how you approached on how to do the jumps.
Love these videos, keep up the good work🤟
Thanks dude!
Awesome riding looked great weather also well apart form the wind, well done on landing those jumps 👍👍
Yeah it was a cracking day 🥳
@@bikeandbeyond glad to hear, hows your Bizango going? Got some new tyres put on mine and also DMR death grips after watching your video on them 👍👍
how much mm ist the fork
160mm front 150mm rear. More than enough 👍🏻
@@bikeandbeyond you think i can shredd in the bikepark with big drops with 130mm fork? my weight: 30kg?
We're definitely going to be ready for bpw
I can’t wait!
Well done great effort & commitment!! I live right next door in the village on the hill, ever need a tow for the next set of features give me a call
Awesome place to have as a local. In a couple of months when I am down ,I will definitely need a tow in for the Black jump line. 👍🏻
@@bikeandbeyond looking forward to it

Please tell me you went to Grogley/Bishops/Hustyns while you were down this way.
I was riding for around 8 hours in total. No time for anywhere else 😂
I am only about an hour and a bit away from Grogley so I will be back soon.
@@bikeandbeyond Oh, fair enough then. You'll love it down there, I look forward to the video on your trip.
Nice work 👏👏👏
Thanks mate 🙌🏻

@@bikeandbeyond awesome, will definitely need to make the trip down from Bristol soon then
@Bike and Beyond is the Cube Stereo 240 pro worth it?

Which size cube stereo is it?
It’s the large 👍🏻
@bikeandbeyond I mean is it a one22 or a one55 or one77
What is this for a bike
It is a Cube Stereo 240 pro.
