    Happy to see someone else thrashing around on that Bolany fork! I love it so far and I installed a second one on my Hyper E Ride 29er.

      @SimRig PC27b Did you have to make changes on the front axle when you changed the fork on the Hyper Explorer?

    I picked up the hardtail version earlier this year. Thanks for the video and links! I went with the same fork and other parts. The bike handles the trails perfectly! Thanks for your help.

    thanks for this sweet video! Would love to see more. I was in between this one, it’s hard tail counterpart, and the Schwinn 2020 aluminum comp. Ultimately went with the Schwinn and saved the $50 since I live in South Florida and we’re pretty flat down here 😅 looking forward to new updates!

    @Jeffrey Guidry thanks for posting a review on this bike. When you changed out the fork did you have to make changes on the front axle? I want to change my fork, I’m not sure what else I’ll need to get besides the fork.

    Well done... aggressive trail ride for sure !
    I just got the 'Sister' bike, the Hyper Explorer Hardtail.
    I plan to give it the first 'Trail Thrashing' tomorrow.
    Initial 20 miles on a Road / Gravel path went well - very solid ride - great value for $248 !
    Q: This bikes stock fork is the best budget fork I've seen so far. How much better is the Bolany Upgrade you're using ?
    PS Where are the Trails you're on ?
    Thx - David in East Texas

      I got the hardtail version as well. My stock fork locked up on me and never really worked great to begin with honestly. The bolany fork has been the most significant upgrade other than the bottom bracket. It’s made a world of difference.
