This is why I have no problems buying from DTC brands. Finding a dealer that actually cares and adds value is quite rare. Excluding wheel straightening, nothing on a bike is particularly difficult and caring about the result (while being able to use the internet) is worth a lot more than...

I've been looking at a lot of information about bike frames and questionable CF build quality, even with very expensive brands. None of this had anything to do with YT, but I was wondering if anyone out there has cut a YT frame in half or scanned one to see what the CF build quality is like...

Thanks for the detailed response, Beatn1K. Much appreciated. I live in Germany and I am okay with wrenching, so I am not nervous at all about buy from online only German DTC brands. At worst, I can drive to YT in an hour and a half. The prices can be crazy, but I am lucky enough to be able to...

I see what you mean, but I really like the shorter chain-stay length of the Race, and the 27.5 rear. If the Pro was a 'mullet', I would do that.

Hi All, Looking to buy my first ebike soon and the two front runners are the Decoy and the 160. Looking for reasons to go for one over the other, or things I may have not considered from the Merida people here. My thoughts at the moment: - I prefer Shimano brakes. That's a tick for the...

Just spent ages looking at Merida eOne-Sixty 9000 videos. Add that to the list! It might be near the top now....

Cheers! I'll check it out.

I don't really have a thing at the moment. My thing is watching videos on the internet and imagining what my thing might be ;) I imagine going to bike parks maybe 2-3 times a year and doing the easier runs. Most of my riding will be in the hills around my house where you can do everything from...

I've noticed the large push for Specialized around here ;) And the lack of Canyon content on Rob's YouTube channel is strange... The Levo is one of the nicest looking bikes out there, but I'm just not going to put it on the list considering the price. I'm fine with a bit of wrenching and...

I used to be ride MTBs a long time ago and now I'm living in a great area for it, so I'm looking to get back in with an eMTB. Currently thinking about a YT Decoy or Canyon Spectral ON but my all my previous experience is with 26" XC bikes, so everything is going to feel like a completely...
