2024 Sea Otter Classic: New Bikes from Trek, Polygon, and More!

[@Dream-season]

I want that fairdale so bad!!!

[@99spokes]

You and me both! We should have one in for review shortly 🤞

[@Dream-season]

@@99spokes unreal!!! I’ll absolutely be tuned in for that review

[@MAI2TON]

They had me at "Sunday & Odyssey". Probably the most respected and sturdiest products in the BMX industry.

[@ctsingletrack]

Saved the best for first. Love that Stanton Sedona!

[@99spokes]

Yes! Awesome to have so many rad new hardtails there. It’s interesting how similar the Elevator and Sedona are, without, to my knowledge having any collaboration or communication during their design

[@icecreamo]

​@@99spokes Around a year ago when Fairdales posted about the Elevator on their instagram I remember Steve from HardtailParty commented that he and Fairdale have chatted about the Elevator and hopefully it will end up on his channel. I remember this because I was sooo stoked and wanted more information, and what place else to get good information then HardtailParty. But now when I checked the comment is gone. It would be nice to know more about this, what happened? The Fairdale Elevator feels like a special bike that deserves to be a massive hit. What they have said, that it will be sold as a complete and maybe a frame only option later on. The Sedona is sold as a frame.

[@icecreamo]

So stoked on the Fairdale! Been waiting for a bike like that. But so weird with the Stanton Sedona. Around one year ago Fairdale posted about the Elevator on insta and now, all of a sudden Stantonparty also have this "unique" bike. Pretty crazy that they are in the same video.

Even tho I barely skate now, I need that Skate rack from Fairdale! It is hard to get it here in Czech

[@PureRiding]

Wow, polygon looks to be really branching out, which is great! I wish I had a good reason to get a DH bike. I don't really go to parks because they are all at least 3+ hours away. I want one so bad, haha. I will probably look into that SL though, that siskiu looks sick!!

[@99spokes]

They really are, it’s exciting to see!

[@joehoeper4648]

Agreed - new Polygon bikes look dope. I want that DH bike

[@notpablo8369]

Wished they update the suspension layout to accomodate 2 bottles on the Downcountry frames🫰

[@notpablo8369]

They removed the isospeed on the alloy procaliber?

[@ultrablade9182]

yeah, sadly

[@99spokes]

They did. Honestly I think it’s a good call on a value oriented bike like this, but it would be interesting to see how the design works on an alloy frame!

[@jayanderson6016]

TREK fired 10% of it's workers in the US and went back to the traditional pivot because they weren't selling bikes. The truth is that none of the bikes produced since 2016 were needed by anybody to enjoy any type of riding imaginable. Electronic shifting, electronic droppers and electronic shocks aren't necessary ..... same with E bikes if you're under age 70! I for one am tired of bike companies telling me what I want or need.... When the dust settles from this, I hope they remember that they did this to themselves.

[@Rose_Butterfly98]

Polygon not showing off the new carbon XC full sus yet? Kinda wanted to know what they were gonna call it, guess it's still a long way from release then.

[@99spokes]

Haven’t heard anything about that!

[@MudmanDH]

I have this dream of one day visit Sea Otter bike event but the Visa to USA is almost impossible to get for us Brazilians 😞

[@99spokes]

Sorry to hear that! It’s a good time, I hope you get the chance to make it one year!

[@quithollerin7276]

Pff. Not quite ready for the Slash Gen 6? Sounds like bullshit to me, Trek. You don't want to lose your customers to somebody else. Don't tell me what I'm ready for. The extra idler wheel is not a selling feature to me. And I'm not alone.

[@99spokes]

It’s great to have options, wouldn’t you say?
