If it were me the Rocky Mountain Slayer would be my pick, I was sold when I saw the "Jason" mask :-)
I would recommend new enduro29, it has a lot of anti-squat and very stable at descents
@@ayanamir3413 And terrible spec for the price...
Yippee_Ki_Yay MF then giant reign would be good
I do not think you got the devinci, it just doesn't feel right
That guy is an asset to a shop. He's very knowledgeable and energetic. I kinda hate people like that cause they effectively encourage you to spend more.
Its called upselling. Enthusiasm for great product passed to customer.
It’s his job moron
I wish he didn't say "most successful bike" several times. Sounds like somebody overly concerned with being noticed.
Also 12-speed is irrelevant. It's the range that matters
Basically what all salesmen do
Xmen fan?? Love your Dm. Are you reading Hickman's XMen? Grest stuff.
What an awesome employee this guy is! Takes his time showing all the bikes. Passionate, informative, seems like he loves what he does. I’d be honored to have a shop like this close to home
I love shopping for bikes I can’t afford 😂
Just don't get caught by the owner.
Hahahahha
why am i thinking about 50 cents window shopper 😂
Same
The shop worker saiying umm like 100 times
"Keep snacks or tools" in the frame? Hell, that's clearly for dope storage!
Yeah so you’re always high on the trail 😏
i have a stumpjumper with it and used it for a while, i dont anymore cus you cant get a pump in there and i have to run a backpack anyways
Fly high
Jonah Hill said burrito storage..
I'd take snacks over dope any day. Mmmm...
I wonder how many injuries were sustained with that old specialized dropper post...
After 2+ years owning a 2017 Enduro with the obscenely fast command post, I've never hit my balls with the saddle, I have knocked the wind out myself on a very steep chute though. I now find all other posts slow.
Almost castrated myself on it first time I rode it.
I think people forget/don't know that the pressure can be adjusted. I'm not sure why all bike shops I've went to have them set at anus rocket mode.
Anus rocket mode 🤣
I didn't look at how much pressure I was supposed to put in the dropper and put way to much in tested it and boy that one hurt
I love shopping for bikes with a $1500 budget and the shop guys keep pulling out $3500 bikes saying it’s a tad bit out of your budget 😂
Sighs in $500 budget.
I think some of those are a lot more. That first Santa Cruz is over $7,000.
@@ruggedindsoup2135 you can get onto a Santa Cruz Nomad anywhere from $3599 all the way over $7000. Depends which model, frame, and how high end of components you go with.
Same here. Went to a bike shop and told him i am a complete newby and what bike he would suggest. He showed me a Norco sight for $4800.
Plot twist: walks down the street and buys a 2020 Norco Sight
I've just ordered one. ♥️
@@_Vicarious Lucky. A friend got quoted May for the model and size he wants.
@@dubbreak Yeah I'm very lucky. Got the last in my size.
In a second plot twist he takes it out of the Norco box and reveals its a HUFFY ;-)
@@thinkdrinks384 yes
I didn't know Jonah Hill also sold bikes. 🤣
Actually, he looks like Andre the GIANT with that hair
I was going to make this comment but you beat me to it 😁
I think he’s going to get the santacruz
VPP of santa cruz 🤮🤮🤮
LG GC are you broken
@@ben_pedelty Broken? I'm not a Santa Cruz frame 🤣🤣
lol
@@lggc4952 VPP the best system, i think u have any problem
Yes I HATE shopping for bikes, parts and accessories! Because I’m a girl I get treated like an idiot wherever I go! I found one phenomenal bike store so I shopped there after going to dozens of stores and getting treated so poorly! They where phenomenal, great service, nice, very knowledgeable and helped me pick out the perfect bike for me. If it wasn’t for Breakaway Cycles in Loveland Colorado I would have given up and never looked for another bike again after so many previous bad experiences at other shops! I now own a beautiful comfortable Specialized Womens Diverge Carbon ❤️
That’s great darling
You're a gorgeous girl💖
That's great to hear you found your dream bike after going through your struggles of people not realizing you were a serious customer.
I moved to another state and found another Specialized dealer and called Bicycle Heaven and their service is phenomenal ❤️ I ended up helping my dad get a Specialized Sirrus and he loves it! ❤️ we’ve been having a blast exploring new places to ride and I’m upgrading my bike like a madwoman! 🥰 waiting for my GRX rear derailleur, have two Rollcage II water bottle holders, two Blackburn outpost cargo cages on the front fork, Solid clip phone stem mount to use my phone as GPS/computer, K-Edge go-big GoPro handlebar mount and chain saver, rear rack already in waiting for me at the shop, Blackburn tail light, SWAT road box, jiggly bell, and looking into a niterider light but haven’t decided on which one yet and going tubeless and a dropper post and fenders. After I get some bags and my bike all done I’ll start working on my dads bike but he’s not a hardcore adventurer like I am lol ❤️
I have had trouble in bike stores also. Go to a different one. It isn’t because you are a girl. It’s because salesmanship is dead.
VanCan: the $10000 or the $9000 one
Me: the $500 one or the $750 one. Edit: Omg I didn’t expect this to get this many likes thx so much
what alot of guys do is they take the big intial hit on price and then sell their old bikes so they arent paying as much. Van can sold 2 bikes and if I had to guess he's not paying more than 4 grand on the new one. Still alot of money tho
He started with an $800 Canadain Tire bike lol
Nothing wrong with a $500-$750 bike. The MTB industry is nuts. Most people think you have to have a $5k+ bike to be able to ride. It's like saying that buying a $300 pair of Nike's are going to make you play basketball better than the guy wearing Chucks. It comes down to skill and not your checkbook.
@@XploreAz the industry is not nuts. manufacturers know that the bikes they make (especially boutique brands) are for a small group of avid cyclists. It costs alot of money to engineer, test and build these bikes. For the majority of people, bikes on the lower end of the scale will do just fine. it's the same on the road side. A beginner will recieve little to no benefit from a 10k bike vs a 700 dollar bike because they lack the skills to really take advantage of the technology. a skilled rider while still faster than most of would suffer on a lower end bike because they lack the precision and characteristics of the high end bikes.
@@jmard24 The point I'm trying to make is that nobody needs a $10,000 bike. The industry makes it seem like you have to spend several thousands of dollars on a bike in order to get out and compete or even have fun. That's not the case. It comes down to skill more than anything.
I rented the '18 Enduro at Snowshoe this summer; and it was an incredible rig! Literally just hopped on and was comfortable jumping and railing berms straight outta the gate. It would be my choice, but I am extremely limited with experience on full-squishes. On another note, mountain bike prices have quickly gotten to the point where you can identify the haves and the have nots in the industry. It's truly unfortunate to say the least.
I see a sparkler in your eyes when u see the Specialised enduro.
Personally. I will choose Santa Cruz for the look, performance, warrenty, after sales, and the bearings. Really hard to beat that if you have the money for it.
7:34 I bet he was itching to press that dropper lever..😂 cause I would..
You're going with the specialized I can feel it
I really like that Rocky and the Santa Cruz as well!! I'm a Kona owner myself but I can appreciate all bikes
For whatever reason, bigger brand name bikes don't usually call out to me, but that Specialized did look freakin sweet. I'd prob go for that or the Santa Cruz. Also, superb usage of Austin Powers music. Really turns the whole vid up a notch. 👍
@9:35 DAMN! That dropper would fire me into the stratosphere. I'm a very light rider.
I'm a heavy rider. It would crush my assets, if you know what I mean.
Calls the video “why this brand is better” and doesn’t even reveal the brand? Ohh
Pierre Holdt very much click bait!
Yes..click bait...now come back and watch next vid to see which one..then come back a third time for the why
@@mikemace2322 I'll pass,No respect for click bait.
It's more like "how much money can you spend on a bike"
The bike he means is highlighted in yellow
That rocky mountain slayer looks amazing
I was was waiting for this video!
I think you will be getting the specialized
Its always raining there in Vancouver....I should have seen your video three months back, as I was in Vancouver. Those MTB tires look great...
You bought the Specialized....your eyes said it all.....
nope he didn't 1nyear later lol
@@rossswanson2277 sure he did
TIL: I can carry a burrito in a Specialized mountain bike. (hope you picked the Rock Mountain)
Shut Up and Ride lmao same. I strap my tube an d co2 to the bike so I cam carry 2 burritos
had a friend destroy his new slayer frame on his first lap at whistler
@Carpe Lutum any bike can, jsut get a bottle cages for handlebar, get two dual bottle cages, if you are going for a party.😂
my bids on the rocky mountain slayer that things a beast.
megatower. that was my thought even before they showed it
Thomas Winfree RIPMO
I'd pick Santa Cruz for sure, been very happy with them. Beastly yet nimble.
I have a strong feeling you gonna get the Megatower.. yewwww 🤙🏼🍻
Both are elite level MTB brands of the highest quality!!
My guess is the Slayer, locally made, great design.
Specialized all day everyday.
would you forgive me for buying a Trek Ticket S? Im also a specialized fan. FSR/Horstlink for the win
That Huffy Carnage looks pretty good imo
I can't ever buy a huffy
It’s going to be 2020 Specialized. When I was looking at new bikes last year my top two choices were the Specialized Stumpjumper and the a couple of different Rocky Mountain model. Loving my Stumpjumper But would not have been disappointed riding a Rocky. The new Enduro’s are pretty sweet. The Ibis Ripmo is a another fav. Where I live I do more aggressive trail riding. 29er 2.6 work great in the PNW!
I B I S is definitely on another level
@Rico William Yeti are extremely beautiful work of machinery, my brother in law has an older Yeti
& it's way before it's time...4sho !!
I am more a Santa Cruz, Yeti and Pivot guy, got a great deal on an sb150, I have also got a Canyon Spectral, great value for your money
But it doesn't matter, most big bike brands offer great models and good performance. Pick the one you like most or you'd pick the best offer
Love shopping for a new bike. Also love the background music.
Gotta go with that new Enduro! I have that same exact red Expert they showed and that thing is a beast!
Hopefully the Megatower! I loved it. Even climbed technical really well, especially for it's weight.
This year I was in the market for a new bike... was looking for an enduro bike and tried out many bikes including the Santa Cruz Megatower, Devinci Spartan, Evil Wrekoning etc. I Ended up going with 2019 Devinci Troy Carbon 29er :) This bike rules :) Felt very similar to the Spartan but just a little more playful/poppy. I didn't get a chance to ride the new Evil Offering or the 2020 Specialized Enduro but those bikes look sick as well. What I will say at the end of the day any of these bikes would have made me happy, they are all incredible. It's hard to find a bad bike these days. So close your eyes and play 'eni mini mani mo' you can't go wrong lol
Santa Cruz Megatower is my guess. I’m riding a SC 5010cc, and couldn’t be happier. The quality of the bike is addicting.
9:35 me whenever i am doing a presentation in front of the class
Hhahhahaah
Nice shop dude🤘
I'd go for the slayer, it's your patriotic duty as a Canadian, and it's really nice.
I hate seeing the thousands disappear but other than that part I love it
I was riding with a rep from specialized at mtn creek bike park and he was kind enough to let me ride his enduro... it was pretty great if anybodys got any questions about it I'm keen to talk more!
Me too. I love shopping for bikes
I would probably go with the Rocky Mountain. The geometry is great, they are reliable, and look cool!
Ive had a rocky mountain and guys let me tell u that brand is so realiable and the price is also pretty good vs their competitors.
Nomad straight up only choice. I just bought a brand new 5010 cc and now I want the Nomad.
That Rocky Mountain was beautiful, I wanted that bike!
That Rocky Mountain Slayer was beautiful. Damn you Canadia, you have all the nicest people and the best trails.
Specialized 2019
The one where you can store tings
Zubs way too much for what it is
They're all nice for sure. Specialized would be my pick. 29er with all that squish.
I feel you'll go for the Megatower. Can't bear Santa Cruz
Got a good deal on 2015 S-works carbon Candy red and Lime green frame. Excited to build. Like the X wing look. The new S5 frame look exactly like Santa Cruze
I wanna buy a bike from that guy he actually knows what he is talking about
Not really.
Dude was stumbling.
Brian Burdett facts
The worst salesman
Generic horse manure salesman. I want specifics. Geometry, new tech, weight etc.
I don't want a pilots bike.
In my opinion, Devinci has the best R and D, and the only manufacturer to design AND fabricate aluminum bike frames and components in North America. In fact Devinci’s R&D offices are right next to their fabrication plant. That’s pretty awesome. They don’t have the trendy popularity or distribution of other brands but they are a great brand.....And of course the late Stevie Smith raced for them so I’ll always be fan.
Dude the money for a bike rental going toward your bike purchase at the shop is so cool
2:53 that devinci is so nice
I'm 100% always on board specialized
Have 3 Specialized and love them!
All the bikes!!!
Awesome MTB woooo awesome MTB!!!
Most all top line bike are awesome now.
The best bike is the one you ride all the time until you are one with it.
Specialized would still be my top choice just for the utilities.
Gotta go with the Santa Cruz, you can't go wrong with a Nomad. Although you should go get a Transition Patrol.
He reminds me of the dude who tried to drown himself in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
I thought its johns brother
Cameron
😂
Santa cruz megatower
Really like the Specialized. The frame looks so massive. I think you like it pritty much, too. Hopefully you are getting the Enduro.
Specialized should make a 1120 equivalent with solid front fork that has a through axle, triple brazeons drop bars, fat tyre, built in swat box and my odd request.... rear air suspension with a brain. People ask me why such an odd request? I tell them physics and experience! It sounds weird but once you ride one you’ll see it makes for a completely new bike category ❤️
Specialized Enduro, a beast on the down hill! That's the one.
That bike shop looks like heaven
I'm gonna guess the Enduro just because it has storage and of course that killer paint job in the begging
Omg, I have to get my bike tuned. This makes me want to FIND and ride some trails.
I like the looks of Specialized. Actually the old looked better than the new one.
I guess You will go for the Santa Cruz.
loving the Austin Powers soundtrack!
Santa cruz is the best made bike out of them all!! And they stand behind there products witch is huge! I mean crash really bad and crack the frame that's right they will send you a new one free! Cant beat that
Aaron Plaster ibis riply or RIPMO
Ima guess Rocky Mountain and or Santa Cruz for sure
I'd love to see you go with the Megatower but I think your going to get the new Enduro
I have a specialized rockhopper and it is amazing
I'm guessing the Specialized... Mainly because I haven't heard one bad review to date, although the way Santa Cruz stands behind their product is the way every manufacturer should be! Lifetime replacement on frames, pivot bearings and carbon rims I believe....
Casey Bryant here’s a bad review they suck they crack they aren’t half as good as a ibis
Specialized Enduro 2020 every time.
My wife hates when I go shopping for anything related to bikes lol
For me i think you will choose the santa cruz nomad. 👍😁
I will guess SC HighTower only because that would be my choice.
If you want 29, MegaTower. If you want 27.5, Nomad. Santa Cruz all day. Best warranty in the industry.
Shopping for bikes is the best day (days) EVER!
I always find Specialized a bit vanilla, yeah they taste fantastic, but you don't get excited about them.
Right I have a nice carbon specialized and it's perfectly adequate but no one on the trails looks at it and says holy shit! Nice bike
I got in on this a little too late. It's been a month. But I haven't cheated. And if it was me I would get the Rocky Mountain Slayer. That is the coolest bike I've ever seen. I love it.
Seeing as how the Megatower was on the stand, I'm assuming they just built your bike 🤘
I m liking the Megatower for ya! Although what Spesh did with the Enduro is very interesting
I say Devinci, all those bikes look so sweet.
i hate bike shopping because i can never afford one. but man o man how i would love to be able to get a mt bike and get into the sport i miss riding i rode all the time as a kid growing up and after having my own family i can sadly no longer afford to spend that kind of money on a bike i wish i had even a $1000 to buy a new bike
I want to go there that's the most beautiful bike shop i've ever seen
My guess is the Rocky Mountaim Slayer!! Good value for money
I’ve had my experiences with both brands both are very good but after purchasing my Santa Cruz 5010 a few years back I’m never switching brands again such a good bike
X actly!
Giant was painting bikes like the red enduro you highlighted almost 30 yrs ago.. I bought my daughter a giant iguana back in 93’ that was a root beer and gold candy. The old style enduro looks like a SE Quadangle..
You definitely got the specialized enduro!
you're lucky to have this guy and this shop close by
Get Santa Cruz because of the lifetime warranty on frames and bearings, and even their Santa Cruz bars. I own a Santa Cruz and you can’t go wrong with one
Doesn't speacilized have a lifetime warranty too ? Either way two great bikes
@@reviewgod2112 They do but from personal experience with Santa Cruz and a friends experience with Specialized, Santa Cruz is much easier to deal with and less likely to claim it's just cosmetic or make you jump through hoops. Also Sata Cruz gives you free pivot bearings for life as well.
Agreed! Never had issues with my Bronson and Santa are so easy to work with
You are choosing the slayer. Its a beast AND speced for your area!
If I could just pick one of those bikes 😂
Bike and gear shopping never ends
