What would be your dream build? List all the parts as well! No expense spared 👇

[@reddevil1907]

I would start with a nukeproof giga 297 frame start with sram axs t type fox dhx2 coil shock and fox 38 factory grip 2 industry nine hydra enduro wheelset gusset pedals stem seat bars and grips fox factory dropper and maxxis assengai tyres and set up as tubeless

[@phonetech1109]

No need for a $10,000 dream build. I'd rather have several $1000 - $2000 bikes so that my friends, or my kids, or kids friends could all ride together. Spread the mountain biking community!!

[@saiiiiiii1]

Truth be told the more expensive it is, the less likely it is that I have fun with it. Because I would baby it more than anything

[@scchua4203]

Always nice to see Doddy building a bike. He is missed!

[@jmc5341]

Squid is really worth a lot in those parts huh? Enough squid and you can get any fancy bike part you want

[@johnodonoghue3188]

Clear to see this young man Jake is destined for great things! Also good to see that he seems to be a grounded humble person. With his sublime talent on show at Crankworks I rekon he will soon be a Red Bull favourite!

[@ms.karihart2983]

Dream builds are exciting, but it’s process of selecting parts for you mtb . Once you’ve received them you have install the parts . Then the juices start to flow to thrash the the trail , but most of us takes weeks or months to build 😂

[@theshadow8008]

Gmbn need some doddy...

[@Tazz6326]

There's something about watching bike builds, chills me out😊 Just wish I had the know how/tools to do it🚲

[@andrew8200m]

Just refurbed a 2012 Scott Scale 50 for my partner, very happy with the end result, I’ve not gone for a single ring up front as the gear set was in good condition and worked flawlessly but as she uses it more I may just have to have another look in to it

[@AFV85]

They manitou shocks always remind me of when was a kid going to halfords to spot the bikes with the shocks put on the wrong way lol

[@MTB2139]

PROPS! Good job

[@theshadow8008]

How epic, two hours twenty five min twenty two sec...

[@XCRiders]

Glad I bought the 2020 Oiz M team tr it comes with the good wheels DT Swiss XRC 1200s mine size large weighs in at 9.83 kilos!! All Shimano XTR and not the heavy af sram transmission.

[@AFV85]

29.40 nice getting the poppies in shot I just keep getting an image of Dode with khakis and a brodie helmet on to match the new tash! Don't know if its ment but nice subtle way to throw it in there with the nonsense there saying just now!

[@LifeofMaik]

#Askgmbntech Is it a good idea to buy a different suspension for your bike? With different I mean either different brands, or models. Manufacturers spend quite a lot of money for the tuning of their forks and shocks. Wouldn't another kind of suspension mess the bike kinematic up? For example: Installing a fox performance from a more "enduro-ish" bike vs. a fox factory from a "xc-ish" bike. Same goes for completely new suspension.

[@rodgrainger9487]

Get Doddy back as a guest. He's good!

[@tonkshred]

Would a carbon rift zone be similar to that mondraker doddy builds ? Never seen that frame stateside

[@kpang79]

Sick! Why Medium, Have you tied large?

[@dannyk3718]

Oh man I'm waiting on delivery of my orbea laufey any day now I'm like a giddy skool girl waiting for santa

[@magruderable]

I think this is Rich. I love this fucking guy.

[@phonetech1109]

I'd like to see a "budget dream build". What would you guys do with $2000 USD to get the most out of your money.

[@saiiiiiii1]

Invest in Bitcoin😂

[@AFV85]

Keep saving not going far with 2k

[@user-uk4gw6gp8b]

Find used on FB marketplace or offer up. I picked up a 2021 giant stance 1 for 650$ with aftermarket parts. Giants website lowered the price from 1800$ to 1,000$ off the stance so people have no leverage on resale value. After new tires and dialing it in the bike is solid. And I’m only 700$ into a decent enough mtb that someone spent over 2k$ for

[@MisterCOM]

@@AFV85 i saw a stumpjumper evo frame for 1.2k

[@theblishknovk]

For 2000 id do a Kona Honzo ESD.

[@TiMoLoToV]

#askgmbntech Hello, since you guys have so much experience with Nukeproof, i'm hoping to get some advice on sizing. I'm 1.79m and the sizing chart in the website says M is up to 1.78 and L starts from 1.78. What should i pick? Im gonna get a Scout 290 frame to custom build up one myself. Thanx in advance!

[@John3-16Clothing]

Second

[@Alan-75]

I had a manitou mcloud rear shock on a 2008 giant reign and thought it was the best rear shock I ever had by far, super supple but their forks were 💩 what did everyone think of their mezzer forks.

[@MrDstnyw]

# ask gmbntech just got a new cube stereo 120r full sus only 1 gripe 30t chainring i cant even fit a 32t without it catching the gear cable or compramiseng the chain line or removing and re routing bodgeing the gear cable any ideas thanks

[@darrenwall5439]

Is this your third Gigga?? You had a red bike if i remember first and then a black one and now another black bike. What are you doing with them all??

[@51im]

Some of these builds are not really representative of what the average new rider could achieve. With the amount of parts already owned and calling them free and parts bagged from shops, we haven't all got local shops that give away parts and sell £120 saddles for £15. It's good to see what combination of parts work well together though.

[@urhomommo6300]

Essu

[@markovukovic7118]

Where is doddy?

[@marquiscyrano5401]

At mondraker tv

[@nickince5934]

Cheap bike build and ride challenge? With how cheap second hand bikes and parts are, you guys could buy cheap bikes. Mod/upgrade for under £400 ISH in total? Prove old bikes can still be kept running for at least a few more years.

[@mikel4159]

I've noticed that the likes of Deore and SLX are never recommended, it's always XT or XTR. Even when it's a supposedly budget friendly build. Seems that you guys are just an out of touch advert. Like with those Atherton bikes being "affordable"

[@mikel4159]

Ok, doddy has actually done it. But he still bangs an xt shifter in there!
