2024 Polygon Siskiu T8 // More Speed Needed 4K

[@gaddobronx6740]

Hey man i made a comment on your inital T8 review. I have the same bike which i love. But seeing the trail you're riding, you definitely have to change the wheelset and tires. (I believe the stock entity wheels are like 14lbs which is really heavy) If you get a decent set of used 29er wheels and change the tires to 2.5 front and 2.4 rear you will significantly notice a huge difference on how fast the bike rides and performs. It will hands down make your ride so much more enjoyable. And not drain your energy on those uphill climbs with the stock heavy wheels and tires.

Nice! Glad theres another video of yours up..i subbed eather recently . My advice here, tilt your chest mount up just a teensy bit more so we can see a little more if the trail ahead! Good stuff though! I'm highly considering a siskiu t8

@@KineticsReborn yeah, I knocked it at some point on the trail and didn’t realize until editing.

I just tried a chest mount for the first time while trying out my new T8. I have to tilt mine up slightly up from parallel with the chest plate. I also think trying super wide vs just wide?

The deer in the video are sick. If you try bikes on weekends do you adjust the suspension psi etc?

[@hardtaillife4071]

Not as much as I should. I just went down Rock Garden Trail here in SLO and slowing my rebound would have been wise.

Hey amigo, how you feel that polygon ? Is that bike heavy ? How much it weight? Thanks 🙏🏻

[@hardtaillife4071]

Love it! About 35 lbs after taking off the 2.6 tires. It runs fast with smaller tires.

[@chrisarksey]

After cutting the handlebars down, mud guard on front, new pedals... I think next is tubeless conversion for the T8...have u tried tubeless on T8?

[@hardtaillife4071]

Tubeless in front. Back tire still has the inner tube because I’m trying to make a seal so later on I can seat it on the rim easier.

New subscriber here. I’m a Siskiu D5 rider and considering selling it to get a T8 frame…

[@hardtaillife4071]

Downhill and trail bikes are different in mostly how you ride. As a trail bike, I don’t think you can go wrong with the T8. If I mentioned in the video, the dropper post switch might be the only part you may want to replace. The VEE tires are a little heavy and have inner tubes if bought directly from Polygon. Also, the Tektro brakes, although 4 pistons, seem a little soft. We all upgrade at some point. It’s fun. It’s expensive. What can you do?

[@jackmaetal]

@@hardtaillife4071 Sounds great! I’ve got my Fox Transfer dropper post/switch that I’ll use with the T8 together with my current wheels and groupset. Though my rims are not as wide as the stock ones (I think the stock ones are 35mm?) so I may have to replace mine as well… Yeah I agree with the dropper switch as most reviewers really are not a fan of it. I’ve tested a bunch of em with the distributor in my country and they aren’t really great sadly… Though that’s easily corrected…

The video is very interesting! Something I don't understand: I have TRC20 USDT in my OKX wallet and I have the recovery phrase: 「pride pole obtain together second when future mask review nature potato bulb」. How should I convert them into Bitcoin?
