Thank you for watching and subscribing!
That was a cool ride. I would totally get the handlebars stuck between two trees and eject over the front of the bike lol! Wow 7 inches of water is crazy and sorry to hear about your septic.
Yeah gonna have to learn the space needed lol. Yeah we had a lot of rain. Lots of flooding too.
Nice bike riding🔥
Thanks ✌️
First of many brotha!!!
For sure!
Nice route 👌🏼
Thanks
Saludos desde PERU.. YA TENGO mi Talon 2 es poderosa
Awesome!
The funny thing about the camera angles in there is like, I KNOW you’re looking for traffic both ways when you come to a street, but the camera doesn’t move so I get nervous even though I know realistically you’re looking all around haha.
haha totally get that! I was furiously looking both ways I promise!
@@UltraTrailSteven oooo sorry about your septic system too. What a “crappy” situation...
@@CelineFerocious LMAO
Loving the singletrack Steven. You got this two wheel thing down! So bummed to hear about your septic system issues.
Thanks, Sage; it was fun! Yeah no fun on the septic though
Oh no you haven’t went completely over to the dark side have you? Just kidding. I have thought about getting into mtb as a way to cross train. Cool video!
Haha just trying to keep my fitness while injured. But it is fun!
Making me want to invest in a bike! Sorry to hear about the septic stuff! I assume you have one of those water alarms? I have similar issues in my basement but because of issues with sump pump so the water alarm really comes in handy.
No I don’t have an alarm. Might need to get one.
Good walk. Do you have a review on the channel a review of the bike you ride?
Here you go: th-cam.com/video/yeyL_XjIhyg/w-d-xo.html
@@UltraTrailSteven Thank you for the video. I am also planning to buy Talo 2. I understand you gave 1 star instead of 2? In the Talon 2 model, there is a front 2 star.
nice video 🤙
Thanks ✌
i have a 2022 talon 2 just picked up not used and test rode b4 and wouldnt shift into 2nd or anything went super slow owner tuned it then got home tried again all gears nothin felt as good as the 1st and fast. i could stand up and pedal in 1st but not the others. is it bc i was using to my other hardtail it was a 2x8
If it wouldn’t shift sounds like something was wrong
@@UltraTrailSteven i agree. thx. idk are talon 2 1x9 supposed to be slow in 2nd gear? looks like in ur vid looks like its like cycling. like theres no tension on the pedals when pedaling
@@chazzthaspazz4475 yeah it should pedal fine
Brother im not cyclist i have to buy a bicycle which is able to travel longe distance ride on any kind of surface.. im confuse.. what shoul i buy.. GIANT TALON 2.. GIANT FASTROAD SL2 .. GIANT ROAM TO OR GIANT ESLAPE 1... i want to do touring on my bicyle too...
Please help me what should i get
I am not a cyclist either, but for touring or riding on any surface, the Giant Roam 2 or Escape 1 sound like the best options to me.
@@UltraTrailSteven thanks for quick responce brother
What about speed on flat surface ? Do you think its capable for linge distance rodes or someone go for giant fastroad sl 2?
On flat paved surfaces, I can maintain 18-20 mph if I am working pretty good. I have no idea what fastroad sl 2 means. Sorry I am not a cyclist.
@@UltraTrailSteven thanks for your responce basicaly i want to but a bicycle which can be use as a comuter bike as well as a touring bicycle thats why im confuse which model is good for this purpose
@@advmotorrad well it will certainly work. Now if you are trying to ride with a group of guys on road bikes, you’ll be left in the dust
from now until summer 2025 i will buy this giant talon 2 and when i buy it i will reply to this comment
Sounds good!
@@UltraTrailSteven i can do it hihi😁😁 and can you release a video reviewing the Giant Talon 2 and test riding it and changing gears on the spot?😅😅
Salut ! Qu'elle est la taille des pneus ? 29 par 2,20 ?
These are the Maxxis Ardent 29” X 2.25”
@@UltraTrailSteven D'accord merci 👍 Et la taille maximale en pneus qu'on puissent mettre sur ce vélo ? 29 par 2,40 c'est possible ?
