[@peterbedford2610]

Low end bikes have gotten a lot better in the last few years

[@bryankennedy1019]

Still love my Kent's and Genesis. Lol

[@Bpierce13]

The Switchback has a few different levels! The top trim is Microshift with a clutch and actual cassette

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

What!!!???? Stay Tuned!!

[@NonLegitNation2]

the upgradability of that Mongoose is nice. You also are right about that GT, while it's nice it has the better parts on it the frame does look dated. GT needs to update their frame design. They can keep their patented triple triangle design that they are known for but give the frame more modern geometry and put a damn tapered headtube on all of their frames, or atleast a 44mm headtube. IDK if you saw my comment on your other video but I think after I get that new Poseidon Norton frame I'll still keep my GT Aggressor frame but I'll use it as the frame for my parts bin gravel bike because the frame I'm currently using on that bike is too small for me.

[@boodgiek8146]

Bought a mongoose ardor for 400 dollars,doesn't seem heavy at all ,I'm liking it,last bike I rode a lot was a bridgestone MB1 that was over 30 years ago.i don't think you have to spend thousands of dollars to get a nice rideable mountain bike .

[@mattmorrison9379]

Very upgradable as well

[@bassw1758]

I was on GT's website the other day, their new high-end bikes look amazing, their electrics look real nice too.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Really? Hmmmm gots to take a looksy! Thanks brother 😎

[@iamcliffordwells]

Love you guys. Informative and definitely entertaining.

[@keosoutdooradventures]

I like the Mongoose Switch back!

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Good looking ride!

[@txbassbux]

The new nishiki Colorado’s are nice. The Giant brand bikes are nice as well. House of Sport has had them out for a little bit now

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

The nishikis are alright lol, I will never forget our second bike purchase. The Nishiki Mens Pueblo

[@slothsquatch5023]

A 2by...and dual rear reflectors...you know what bike I'd buy CarbonX.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

🤷‍♂️🤣

[@MajorStaticX]

Oh man I love my GT Avalanche

[@AGhostRiderR]

Nishiki with the suntour be on sale for 349 should check it out... for 649 you could get trek marlin 6 gen 2 right now or marlin 5 gen 2 599.

[@jamesweldon8118]

The new Axum comp x is too good of a value at $550. It’s worth it to me to get the dropper and micro shift drive train even if you have to pay a little more to get it tuned at a real shop

[@neometero]

I think GT Avalanche is a perfect replacement, it got most modern features except boost thru-axle.

[@aaronbehindbars]

Reading the tea leaves here...Mongoose Switchback is the bike Wolfman referred to (maybe) being in possession of and then saying maybe it shoukdn't be out on display and for sale in the store (hint, hint, wink, wink).

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

😊😊😊😊🫣🫣

[@davegravitt210]

The Mongoose switchback you found looks like Diamond Back frame. Michigan Dick's has like 5 Mongoose bikes available unfortunately.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

You know we wanted a diamondback for quite sometime.

[@davegravitt210]

@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS . Really? 🤔. I'm spring cleaning. I have a 07 DB frame that's just hanging around. I believe it's a large? I ran 27.5 wheels on it. Tight fit.

[@letour32rr]

On paper it offers the same as a bike shop with the build and tune ups, but I've never seen a Dick's "mechanic" who knew how to properly tune a bike. I would say it's more on par with Walmart than a bike shop. That said, I'd pimp the heck out of that Mongoose if I could find only the frame. However, that price for a full bike with a Freewheel is too close to entry level bike shop to be worth it since many entry hardtails at shops have 44mm head tubes and internal dropper routing, at least for the seat tube.

[@xcamacho1220]

hey! love the videos! i went to go get my gt aggressor pro at a Dick's and they knew next to nothing about the bike. i investigated around the rack to see that every gt aggressor pro was unfinished in one way or another and had loose headsets. i was very disappointed. luckily work at a bike shop and can do most of what i needed to do myself and didnt have to worry to much. however, for the customers though... idk it wasnt a good thing imo.

[@davegravitt210]

You sure seem to love Woman's bikes! 🤩 Why is that Tick?😊

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

🤣🤣🤣💋

[@natehernandez8693]

Gt Avalanche was on sale for 4:50 in the GT aggressor Pro I got for 380 this was not even 2 weeks ago Washington State they were actually a lot of GTS in My Dick sporting Goods area

[@PHFishingBiking]

WOW for all that cash I would go with a polygon hardtail bike over that goose for sure!

[@gregnowak2492]

Heck yeah. Their cheapest hardtail with a 1x11 is $749. Includes a Shimano M5100 drivetrain, internal routing, and MT201 hydraulic brakes. That is a solid deal.

[@neeko460]

Is it me or do the majority of the bikes look the same? I know there are differences between them, but they all generally follow the same design guidelines.

[@natehernandez8693]

I picked up By an aggressor Pro for 380 out the door at Dick's Sporting Goods a week ago

[@davidntonia]

Man! Hatin’ on my Avalanche! 😂😂 But I am old after all 😅

[@inaheap7172]

Man that bike 2nd from the end looks really bent wheel.

[@destroystreets1023]

im guessing you guys have some switchbacks but im hoping its a much cooler bike coming

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

[@davegravitt210]

What bike would i buy Tick? Order off their website! 😁

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

😎😎😎

[@turilaing]

Dick's sporting goods 😂 what a name for a shop! Do they offer silicone seat post with batteries?

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

🤣 yes, rechargeable!

[@DOS-jx9wy]

@@WOLFTICKVIDEOSProbably not, but I'm sure someone out there could make you one for you!

[@PghMtbRides]

Dicks doesn't have a modern trail bike at a good price point vs walmart. They got a couple overpriced/outdated XC geo frame Target is flirting with progress with the Kent Enclave .. but I think it may just be a more modern avalanche per say. Xc geo? Tapered head tube..better OE fork, 1x.. but downfall on that bike are the bolt on wheels and twist grip shift

[@paulshek1495]

Heard about the brand switch. Curious to see which models they are, should be better value than the GTs at this point….

[@dragonflygenetics420]

Aren't they selling Giant

[@travisjames9292]

I was at dicks a couple weeks ago and they Said the switchback is replacing the gt.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Nice to know!!

[@gregnowak2492]

Which bike would we purchase? The answer...NONE. Too expensive and not the greatest quality IMO. Really enjoying these bike search videos though! Good content dudes!

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

Lol Thank Greg, love the comments and I can see were your coming from brother.

[@bryankennedy1019]

Dicks just a step up from Walmart. Good bikes. GT

[@brandihodges9548]

I would not buy the mongoose at that price being a 2x

[@JDfromNV]

I think that GT looked dated because of it being an XL I’ll bet the medium and small look more modern with a shorter seat tube and lower stand over. It’s cool seeing new products out again and looking forward to your upcoming reviews.

[@dannyphantom121]

It is outdated.

[@joshevans277]

First

[@acedotcom]

i love my 2019 gtap. its completely modified and now on to its second set of brakes. but i was looking at the new gtap's and they offer nothing for what they are. the axum in design and features is light years ahead of the gtap now its kind of embarrassing. the gtap seems like its built for people that havent bought a bike since 2005.

[@WOLFTICKVIDEOS]

🤣🤣 agree 💯 man, wish they would of given us a 44 or a tapered by now...
