I ride that EXT Storia Lok Shock in combination with the Formula Selva and it’s the most amazing suspension Setup I can imagine! My Nukeproof Mega feels more planted than a DH bike, but it still climbs up the hill without a hassle! Hell the Coil Shock climbs way better than the Fox X2 Factory I had before and that’s without even locking it! That shock is just insane, I can’t imagine there’s anything better feeling out there! So if anyone is in need of a high end suspension setup, go for EXT and Formula! (I still need to check out the EXT Fork though, maybe it’s even better than the Formula)
@@LL-tx2kj I wear chamois 100% of the time because it keeps everything together. Heard a story when I first started riding about a guy who went OTB without a chamois and tore his sack. It's equivalent to a helmet for men, IMO.
Whenever you guys do a field trip, it would definitely be cool to see this from all around the world, how different geographies influence the culture and how those riders look at their bikes!
Yeah, I agree with everyone here....this series of Daily Driver Bike Checks is GREAT! The Druid has my vote for todays episode. Just a thought, we should put together a compilation of all the top picks from this series. Maybe you've already have....
Always fun to watch "Daily Driver" videos! I liked the Transition and do have a soft spot for the Ripley since I'm all about Ibis! - owned a V1 Ripley and now ride a V1 Ripmo - so the RIpley AF looked sick! and of course the rider seemed very stoked with it!
It's cool to see the different bikes and how each rider makes them more personal to their liking.....I am slowly making changes to my bike so it's not like others on the trail and it's MY BIKE.
my fav was the druid such a good looking bike but i also loved the girl w the chromag bike cause hardtails are great and i also ride formula brakes and suspension
Ripley AF all day, I got mine a month or so ago and have just started getting it out. Absolutely amazing bike. Jealous she had the pond scum frame but the silver is great looking also. But the Forbidden Druid is one of those "if I ever get good enough" bikes for me.
Let me take you way back to my first MTB college bike - 1994 - Iron Horse A Frame, now get this you might not have known this - Out of the Box No Suspension. Quickly added the classic Quadra 21r's, then upgraded to the Judy SL, XTR derailleurs, Raceface Cranks, and Syncros Stem and Seat post. Rocked that bike from the east coast to the west before getting my first FS stance, and Fat Tire in 2013.

888 rules over every fork! I've also traded my Boxxer WC against one and I have to tell you. This thing is more fun than my 2018 F40 Kashima...
I feel like those older marzocchis worked with 650b quite well. Axle to crown is long and there is tons of space for 26 tires, so 27.5 should fit no problem
You guys need to do some bike checks at Boomerang Farm bike park in SE Queensland Australia.... the bikes there are comparable with what you could find at whistler.... and almost everyone there is an everyday rider
I would love to end up on one of these with my riding group lol. One of my friends is rocking a resto-mod 1996 trek Y22 and it starts conversations everywhere he rides
Ya if your looking for marzocchi forks my sponsor marzocchi Mark is the biggest marzocchi fork seller and he has the best selection of triple 8 and so much more.
Daily Drivers is really becoming my favorite series on PB... Once covid lifts. Would be nice to see daily drivers from other trail networks...
For sure! I get stoked on hearing why different people are out riding too - Tom
@@pinkbike because the rain stopped, the trails open, and my job won't pay me to ride -- needless to say, I'm open to job offers
@Dennis Adrian Dafuq?
That Forbidden build is soo nice looking.
what an expensive build, but he was a bit ashamed (seems to me) when talking about the drivetrain

Captain, what's the story behind the shammy question?

@@louisrovegno542 hmm, its very subjective i guess. Ive never needed or worn a shammy
This is by far one of the best kind of videos. It gives the more common rider someone they can relate to, love it!
I imagine them sitting out there for months catching everyone they can to go over bikes. I could watch this to no end.🤙
nah man saturday sends is way more relatable. (just kidding haha)

More of this please! This is sick and makes me feel much better about my bike lol
Me with a 100mm hardtail and no working brakes wishing I could have any of these bikes
@@kasperilehtonen1200 don't worry dude, you'll get a nice enduro rig someday. Everyone had to start somewhere.
@@bananasstuff3344 true, almost saved up enough and gonna buy a canyon strive cf 7.0 . The anticipation is killing me though.
@@kasperilehtonen1200 always haha
Same. I don't feel bad about project huffy anymore hahha
Gotta agree with Tom on that hard tail life, haha.
Although my man out there still reppin’ the 888s is a legend.
Thanks for putting hardtails in ❤
The Chromag easily beats all the others in my opinion but the transition was cool too.
Love this series!

literally my fav series
So cool how people put their own style into their bike. These bike checks are dope.
Soo good to see 26" riders out there. 29" and 650B is nice, but 26" its the real fun size (and I have a 29er enduro in the garage)
Hell yeah good to see someone else who treasures their 26" tr450 as much as I do mine!
I absolutely love mine
Jup, the Druid killed it, but the Ripley was sweet too. Shout out to all flat pedal riders ;-P
Always fun to watch "Daily Driver" videos!

April was so rad! She upgraded from a 26in Specialized and she's just loving the trails even more now. She got me super excited-Christina
Dude riding a 26" Transition in 2021 - don't mess with him on the trail 😄🤙🏻
I have a 26” transition and it is a monster
@@oliverbarrett8941
I also own 2 26"ers beside my 27.5 Canyon;
One is Norco Range 2012
Second is Giant Reign 2011
Both such fun to ride 🤙🏻
@@Kot1026 they are still fast even though the wheels are a lot smaller, I race my tr450 and beat people on carbon 29ers

Beautiful bikes. But as a fellow NS Duck Toller owner it’s the puppers that gets my vote 😍
Marzocchi true fans know what the first guy was talking about...
I love seeing older bikes on the trails also I've never been able to like the mullet set up
These are some of my favorite trail side interviews. Love them. Please keep doing them
The pups were the real stars of the show!
Who doesn't love a good doggo?! -Christina
I love these vids! Always good to know what people are riding besides me!

this is such a sick series i just need more !!!
I'm a simple man. I see a Transition bike in the thumbnail, I click to watch. That was also my fav bike in this video.
I just bought a tr450 and it’s so nice
Come to Hope! I'm stuck on the 26 wheeled bikes still. I'm still stuck in early 2000's era of freeride and one hit wonders 😆
in alaska?

Good to see RevGrips out and about. I love mine
That Forbidden is beautiful!

You guys need to do some bike checks at Boomerang Farm bike park in SE Queensland Australia.... the bikes there are comparable with what you could find at whistler.... and almost everyone there is an everyday rider
When I saw bike check I clicked so fast!!
That Top Fuel 😍 Dream bike for sure!!!
Love these videos it’s so cool to see the adversity in these amazing different bikes! 🤙🏻

I’m biased since I have a Druid too, but I like all of them in their own way.
Love seeing riders bikes and choices…plus girl riders! Win.
I would love to end up on one of these with my riding group lol. One of my friends is rocking a resto-mod 1996 trek Y22 and it starts conversations everywhere he rides
Sick series so much fun to watch

Some great riders and riding in Merritt
My favorite series
The 450 was awesome to see.
Spruce is a good boy

We will try! We've been to Fromme already but need to visit Old Buck for sure! -Christina
Love these videos
Would love to see you guys do this in other areas, like Moab and Sedona
You guys should come to Vancouver Island! Check out Hartland or Tzouhalem
The bike trip 8 on was the best but that hardtail was chasing it to be the best

I have those same One Up oil slick pedals. Just got 15 stitches because of them last night 🖕🏻.
Isn’t the dog at the start a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. I have one myself. :)
Hey I bought fork lowers off the dude with the druid! 😂
The bist of the bist 🤣 love it!
great bikes, even better dogs!
6:27 I dunno how to feel about shimano rotors and sram caliper, just the main 2 brands mix ;)
This series is so cool because you get to see what people ride daily (joke)
Yeah that’s literally the name of the serioes
5Head
No shit huh
