Please join me Sunday, July 26th at 8:00 PM MST to discuss the Fezzari Delano Peak, answer any questions from the comment section below and just get into more discussion about this bike. Have you heard of Fezzari? Would you buy a "direct to consumer" bike? Let's talk!! See you Sunday evening!
I own a La Sal Peak, it's great. Curious on your thoughts regarding the shared linkage in what is the Tetralink. I have a Fox X2 and removed the 2 volume spacers (zero) since the linkage has a relatively low leverage ratio towards the bottom (i.e. very progressive). What I run is a very high pressure in the shock to get between 25-30% sag, closer to 25% static, since at the beginning it's a very high leverage ratio that gives more suppleness. Did you find the same with this bike and the lack of needing spacers and/or added compression?
Thanks! Been following for a while and appreciate your reviews.

I had narrowed my next bike to the Fezzari Signal Peak or the Niner RKT. On almost every level I liked the Fezzari better, with one dealbreaking exception. I ride cross country, in actual mountains, so I need more gears than a 1x offers. Not just the higher high end/lower low end - but most critically the jumps between gears. If the Signal Peak had the option for a 2x, it's what I'd be riding right now. (Not that I'm unhappy with the Niner, it's been stellar. But the Fezzari costs significanlty less, has (2) in frame water bottle mounts, which would have been nice).
Dude, you're like the All year round Bible of Bike Test. Appreciate all the content you've been making this year.
Thank you!! Wish I had more time to make more videos and higher production.... I have a family and full time job so I try to squeeze in these videos where I can.. Thx!
@@mtbyumyum YES! - and truly appreciated, but please, MORE TRAIL, less fence.
Yes finally reviewed a Fezzari :), can’t wait for the La Sal Peak.
That looks like a 4 bar Horst link, those issues that you talk about, the hang ups and the need to close the rear shock for climbing to prevent pedal bob are pretty normal.
Thanks for reviewing our local bike brand. I'm really interested in the next Fezzari review.
Ripmo vs Delano? Which would you rather have if you could only have one bike?
Can't wait to hear the review on the La Sal Peak!
besides the ridiculous seat tube angle, I liked the bike a lot!
Def a bike on the short list to get! These mid travel rigs are perfect & more versatile than ever. It'll be a solid upgrade from my 2016 Scout. Glad a lot of companies are releasing solid rigs. But for $3,500, this is hard to pass up. Fezzari was also my first FS bike, so I've got some sentimental value with the company.
MTBYumYum can you speak to the climbing efficiency of this bike vs the Ripmo? You made comment in another video that it's not comarable to the efficiency of the Ripley. ...Doing the research for a 1 arrow quiver situation. Thanks for all the efforts!
im glad you did review. Im stuck between Revel Rascal or Delano Peak
Honestly, don't pass up the Pivot Switchblade... climbs better than the Delano or Rascal and just overall better bike imho. That said, the Fezzari is an excellent value if you're on a budget. Good luck!!
MTB yumyum where does the Ripmo v2 fit in that ranking?
@@mtbyumyum Whoa, wait, WHAT? Switchblade better than the Rascal? Didn't you just buy a Rascal?
Nice ride and review! I’ve never rode a fezzari but it looks nice.
Nice review! 77.5 seat tube angle! That’s a little steep for me. 75-76 seems to be the sweet spot for me. At 77.5 I woukd have to slam the seat all the way back.
Yeah, a bit much for me too but not nearly as bad as the Las Sal Peak... eash... I guess you'd get used to it but the people I know riding that bike have the saddle all the way back.
Try one out with a steep st angle. I rode an occam the other day and I felt it fit well. Felt very natural to me. I really liked that bike alot
@@mtbyumyum its like 0.5 degrees more steep. The problem is you probably rode a medium right? And the bike felt too short. Need to expand your thought process on bike size. A large would have better for you.
Great review dude! I'd love to spin that build and see how it compares to the Comp I've been on. I'm shocked at well this bike works for a retail price of $3500!
Yeah, that price point for a carbon bike is insane! Your endorsement of the Delano doesn't mean much to me personally... you'd make any bike look good!! ;) Love your "how to" and "ride series" videos dude. Excellent riding!
Rich Drew when are we gonna see your review of this bike on your channel? Great content over there
I can get a used NX build ripmo V1 for 3500 or the comp version of this bike new and I'm stuck on which is the better buy.
I ride rush at least once a week. Never been up to jacobs ladder though. I ride an Abajo Peak, love it.
Love the videos man, hope you have some more lined up in the coming months. Think evil bikes (;
yeah dude.... new evil following, SC 5010, Transition Spur.... Spesh Epic... the list is long dude... just need to figure out how to get bikes???
Been waiting for a video
You deserve a ton of followers! Great video as usual
W😎 W. Take me right back to BMX days in the early 70's n 80s , Cycle hill in Chicago 's far south side is a Part of American culture , ❤️🇺🇸❤️ No cancel culture crazzies in My country , Great footage 🎥🎬🎞️🎞️📺 ,👍👍👍‼️
Mtb yum at the end of each video could u update ur best all around bike ranking from ur point of view? Kinda like how the top gear guys rank super cars
This is a great idea!
Good idea. Thank you👍
Every reviewer gets a bit awkward when they love a direct to consumer order bike.
Dude, no, he used the word, "Wallow".
Where’s the Ripley 140mm travel review? Loving mine...
Soon🤙
In my opinion YT is the best direct to consumer brand out there! They have the best value in terms of spec for the amount of money you're paying. The only problem is they're always sold out! Bought the last 2020 Jeffsy Pro Race in stock a few months back and loving every second of it! Also just recently bought the last Izzo Launch Edition and awaiting its arrival! :D Happy riding!
Yeah, although, when I had first looked at YT they were specing a bunch of e13 stuff that I wasn't interested in... I think Fezzari has an excellent spec for the money and I'd take the Delano over the Jeffsey I rode last year....
I see they have hit up some of the youtube reviewers for their bike review , that's interesting.
Just purchased one but with the dvo suspension...can beat the price. I will only need to change the wheels and drivetrain.
Great review. I’m excited to ride this bike also.
Great review , Thanks for posting
Glad you like it!! Thanks
Would you take the Rascal over the Delano? I am a local Corner Canyon rider as well. If Rascal would you go with the Pike Ultimate or upgrade to Lyrik? I am on a Transition Sentinel 2020 with Lyrik today but want a little less weight and better do it all bike.
I feel like nobody is talking about the fact that this is a beefier version of the Norco Optic, which won bike of the year. Very similar geo with just a bit more suspension.
You posted on Ig about doing a video on your Ripley fork extension is that still coming soon? Thanks for all your videos!
Yes, soon!!
I had a squeak from my DPX2. Put some fork oil on the stanchion and cycled the shock a few times. Seems to have fixed it 🤞
interesting...
How does this bike compare to the Rocky Mountain Instinct? I know the Travel numbers are not all the same but they are pretty close and they both run very similar Linkage designs.
Is corner canyon the best place to ride in the SLC area?
When you see it... like subtle product placement in your water bottle cage. You deserve that sponsorship. Appreciate your reviews.
Should have watched till the end before commenting. :P
haha thanks dude. I called it a sponsorship because they started giving me free drinks but that's it... no financial support or anything. But hey!!! I'll take it!!
Ordered from them yesterday. Looked at an abajo but they say 20-24 weeks. Went with a wiki peak upgraded to 29 wheels, 3-5 weeks. Sad thing is I found a trek I wanted but they don’t know when it will come in. After 2 months of wait I cancelled the trek
You should try to review a Wirepeak emtb from them too. 😁😁
Awesome bike!
I dont really get why the'res a thumb down in a review....
What water bottle cage is that? It looks good on the bike
Please review the new Evil Wreckoning dude
Would you choose Fezzari Delano Peak or Propain Hugene?
Hay pal what brand
“bottle cage” is that holding your
Coconut water?
Are these bikes made here? Or based here and made in Asia?
What’s the water bottle holder you have on this?
So thos brand is not for people who ride dw linked bikes pretty much. I can’t imagine going from a dw platform to a regular 4 bar linkage. Not saying it’s bad. I’m just a little spoiled by the dw
Hey Thomas! Dude, I've been on one for a few months now and it's super rad!! Call me crazy, but I just acclimated to it instantly and it felt right! On top of that, i'm on the $3,500 comp.
Rich Drew that’s awesome. I have an intense carbine and it’s a good bike but I feel like the vpp gets hung up on climbs. I need to get to Arkansas
JF Hoping to have it ready by midday tmrw 👊🏻
So are ready to sell your SB to replace with it the Delano? 😁I doubt it.
Hey Spencer! I've been on the $3500 Comp version of this bike for two months and it's rad!! All things being considered, there isn't an SB that can touch this bike for the money. Please also keep in mind that I was a factory Pivot rider for two years and they are kick ass bikes. I've been DESTROYING every trail here in Bentonville and this bike is legit!!
That’s awesome to hear, maybe I should demo one since I live about 10 min from their HQ. I’ve watched your videos and you definitely can shred so that means something!
Of course not... this is not a knock on the Delano but it's just not in the same category as the Switchblade... as mentioned, You'd pay almost as much as the base Delano carbon build for a Pivot frame. All said and done, either bike gets you out on the trail having an excellent time. No reason why the Delano wouldn't be good enough for even the best riders out there. Good bikes for sure... I just prefer the Switchblade. Cheers!
I mean, $2K more for similar spec on the Pivot.
I am wondering what size Peak you chose and how tall you are. I'm 5'10'' and am stuck right between medium and large.
I'm 5'8" on a Medium
how does the fezzari compare to the Propain hugene @MTB yumyum ?????
The geometry is very different between the two... the Propain climbs better in the open position and is the more playful bike... tough choice.... think you'd get better customer service and support from Fezzari... they know what they're doing but the Propain rides better in my short and limited experience with Fezzari.... Good luck!!
@@mtbyumyum thanks for the reply, keep up the good reviews
can you demo the santa cruz heckler ?
Disappointing. The Delano Peak Comp as reviewed no longer exists. Price is up, value is way down. The SLX drive train has been replaced. And the components formerly in the Comp package are now on the Elite trim. So the Fezzari Delano Peak Comp that everyone reviewed is now basically the Elite for $1000 more. I only found this out during the order process. Disappointing is an understatement. Which is why I cancelled my order. I also contacted Fezzari about the component changes. And surprisingly or not they have not replied. The small company that cares about the customer? I don't think so.
5010 please
Do you like the YT Jeffsy?
Which wud u recommend a giant or fezzari?
Giant Trance all day!!
I think it's pronounced "Də LAY no"
Hmmm looks heavy and clunky.
I fear another personality disorder bike.
Not sure what its for.
Over shoot to be a all rounder?
Not a light trail bike.
Geo not for enduro.
Deff not xc.
Hmmmm I'm struggling here........
Yeah, it's tough.... I felt the same way about the Yeti sb130. This Delano suffers in my opinion from the same thing the sb130 does... they come with larger shocks and forks, heavy tires and weigh about the same as a proper enduro style bike but they just don't quite keep up or feel as plush. but they're nowhere close to the Ripley in terms of xc/trail style bikes. We'll talk more about this in the live steam on Sunday. Thank you!!
@@mtbyumyum that revel rail tho....whew man thats something i might go buy.
Orbea MTB JUST BETTER
I still think if you walked into Ibis headquarters and asked them if they had anything new that might fit a particular characteristic, three weeks before a new bike is publicly launched, and they said NO NOTHING you’re going to feel you were lied to. The bike was already privately released well in advance and in peoples hands. I feel Fezarri lied to me and for that they’re losing an existing customer for life. Someone that consistently tried to spread the brand among local riders and friends. These days all I have to say to a lot of people who ask or are shopping is “avoid completely”. The faults of my La Sal Peak combined with that crappy customer service have pushed me too far. Thanks Fezarri!
We get it, your bitter! Jeez, smh 🤦🏽♂️
@@YesNo-es1ty Man is extremely upset haha
Although coconut takes great, it makes me poop....a lot....all day long.
haha, you're just not drinking enough... hurry and order some more lol
Who doesn’t like a good poop?
I was undecided between the Delano and the Canyon Spectral do I decided to get both and return the one I didn’t like.
I don’t know why people keep giving the Delano great reviews, it is hot garbage compared to the Spectral. I only had to ride each once to immediately see the difference.
Also, many of Fezzari’s owners and employees are LDS and donate 10% of their income to a church that actively promotes homophobic and misogynistic agendas and legislation. This was an easy choice.
why is it hot garbage?
