Hey man, do you ride any of the trails around Indianapolis? I rented a Transition Sentinel to try it out down in Brown County and I loved it but I feel like the trails I ride most often don’t call for a bike as “big” as the Sentinel. Any thoughts on that?
@@MidWestMTB it didn’t feel like too much on Hobbs Hollow but obviously most trails around here aren’t like Hobbs. Other than that, I would probably agree with you despite me liking the bike so much. I’m leaning towards the trek fuel ex but have never ridden one. It seems to check all the boxes for places I like to ride around here though.
@@Tcurry04 Interesting, I would argue the opposite, mellow flow trails like hobbs or even trails like the one in this video require much less bike (the kids I'm riding behind are on dirt jumpers actually haha!) where suspension and geo really shines is in the steep, rocky, techy stuff which there is none of in Indiana. BUT having said that, I love riding this bike around here, even on the xc trails, its efficient enough to where I don't feel like I'm dragging a big ole bike under me. If you like it, I say get it, its just such a nice bike and I still just sit there and stare at it sometimes...definitely recommend!
dang nice job dude. Those jumps are huge.
Thanks bud! Gotta love it
We want more videos! Come visit Washington and Duthie!
Thank you! I'm trying to move to Washington actually!
Clean AF that couldn't have been any more smooth at the end. That jump still looks big on TH-cam, but I've been there and in person it's insane
Props man jump was perfect I live right around the corner from horns hill so I know how big this jump is in person and I tell you it takes nerves

Yeah its completely overkill for anything in Indiana. I ride at southwest way a lot!
