i am 6' on the medium SB160. was going to change front 180 fork to 160mm and try the mullet 27.5 on the rear. i also have an SB150 large. love the climbing of SB160 and faster feel but i wonder if i would enjoy moving around more on the Large. the SB150 feels like I have to move around so much more and feels more rewarding in a sense.
@@jamesc6876 interesting that your 6ft and on a medium…I would think the extra room & lslightly longer wheelbase would be more accommodating for someone of your size, either way you a good selection of Yeti’s 🤘🏻
Nice review! The new sb160 is more balanced and centered compared to the sb150 (dont have to be in the attack position all the time). Does the new sb165mx feel the same way?
Just for info, I'm 5'8" and ride a medium. I've been riding full 29ers for several years now and I am quite used to them 👍👍
Sweet video dude!
@@Pirateterrier Thanks I certainly appreciate it 👊👊👊

that color is Gloss Spruce buddy... glad you got to ride it.
Haha thanks & yeh it’s a dam good color ❕
The old spruce was matte on the 130
@@briangong007 Yup I remember that color !!
Recienty scored a deal on a Yeti SB140 & swapped the Code R for XT’s. Did the same on my Stumpjumper EVO. Just don’t care for SRAM brakes
Good move, my friends and I always joke around & say “friends don’t let their friends ride with SRAM brakes” 😂😂😂
I never felt comfortable on my Yeti. But you are all in on them. Looking good brother. Climbed willow twice for that too 🤮
Yeh I was kinda exhausted at the end & it got hot AF once the marine layer burned off 🥵🥵

I would say it is, the bike is made for charging dh tracks
Sending it on the steeps
