It really helps. Very concise and clear, simple. It make us feel that us, mortals, are almost there also. Keep it up.

[@MGMAlternative]

Glad it was helpful!

[@flyindutchman2022]

That was really cool - thanks for sharing that Miranda!

[@MGMAlternative]

My pleasure!

[@walterbrown6388]

love seeing the outtakes! funny!

[@MGMAlternative]

Aren't the intakes funny enough!?

[@bpersons14]

1st comment. STOKED for all the juicy MGM alternative content!

[@MGMAlternative]

You are some sort of internet wizard. How did you get past our firewalls

[@bpersons14]

@@MGMAlternative Jesse made me do it.

[@kanyeeastnorth4847]

What the fuck? Three months?

[@levinsonl]

that 153 looks so fun!!

[@MGMAlternative]

It really is!

[@polishguywithhardtospellna8227]

Omg they even have bikestands in the woods! So convenient!😂

[@MGMAlternative]

Canada is cool.

[@bicyclelife7088]

I have a first generation Process 134 and just got a Process X carbon with mullet. I also have a Nukeproof Mega 290 which feels huge compared to the Process X.

[@rpiian]

They seem to be working well!! :P Congrats on your EWS finishes! That silver/black/orange colored 153 was actually pretty cool (as is your wrap), but I'm a John Deere Green/Yellow kinda guy. Ya know, because, tractors. If they make a 153 29 in John Deere colors again take my money.

[@MGMAlternative]

Thank you! I'll ask RideWrap for a John Deere wrap next just for you.

[@rpiian]

@@MGMAlternative Ermagerd! So utilitarian of you!

[@gabrielsegura1530]

Which one do you use more often? And what are your thoughts about Lyric vs ZEB

[@MGMAlternative]

I'm currently running the Zeb on my race bike. The stiffer chasis is something that I didn't think a rider like me would notice but I was wrong! Mainly the precision steering out of hard compressions or rough stuff is pretty cool. I do like the way the Lyrik is a bit lighter and has a more active feel to it though.

[@kevinmcarthur3614]

Megneg made a huge difference on my 153. Im running it completely empty.

[@whatthehellareyoustarinat8569]

Hi Miranda! What's the sag on your ZEB. Or you just add pressure depending on how you feel the fork regardless of the sag? Thank you :)

[@gregoryvierra6114]

I think she kinda knows what she’s talking about. 😊👍🏼

[@MGMAlternative]

She does!

[@jamola1096]

which model year frame is the 153? I see the DHR2 2.4WT on there which is my fav rear tire BUT I am still not sure it will fit on my 2019 153 CR 29 frame

[@MGMAlternative]

I dont think you will have an issue with fitment!

[@peruvianmountainrides2618]

niceee!

[@MGMAlternative]

Thanks!

[@NerdsonDirtMTB]

Mullet FTW! =)

[@MGMAlternative]

Party in the back all day.

[@dhL17]

How long are your cranks and what is your inseam? Thank you!

[@MGMAlternative]

I run 170mm cranks but don't have a clue what my inseam length is...

[@TheDavidjakeson]

Some day they'll have a 200 mm Reverb AXS... and I will probably buy it

[@MGMAlternative]

I'm sure they will soon!

[@diextremenachos8883]

By Bands in the POS air chamber you mean vol spacers right

[@EmilyHorridge]

They used to look like elastic bands for monarch and vivid shocks so maybe calling them bands just stuck. But yeah vol reducers.

[@MGMAlternative]

What Emily said below..

[@yahdancer]

Hey! How do you run the Lyrik on the 153?

[@MGMAlternative]

My go to set-up on the Lyrik (170mm) is 2 tokens, 70 PSI, 2 HSC, 13 LSC and 8-10 Rebound. I weigh 71kg.

[@yahdancer]

@@MGMAlternative thanks for the reply - any tips on how I can lose 12kg so I can use those settings?

[@jfs6545]

Beautiful machines. Was there a comfort learning curve on steering feel when you moved to enduro concentration from DH? I am coming off of moto and DH head angles, and that quiet, linear tracking front end is hard to give up! Did steeper head angle feel twitchy in a bad way at first, or light and responsive in a good way at first?

[@MGMAlternative]

I always rode my enduro bike more than my DH bike, I just never raced it! So I think the hardest adjustment for me was/is learning how to race enduro, not so much ride it. The steeper head angle felt responsive in a good way for sure!

[@meteormedia7021]

I wish Kona made a carbon Process 153. I'd buy that in a heartbeat

[@hunter2519]

you can get 2020 carbon versions. very very similar to 2021 process

[@MGMAlternative]

The alloy has good riding characteristics as well though.

[@MGMAlternative]

I do like alloy bikes! But maybe we'll see something carbon in the future....

[@clmfilms8103]

Ya, the carbon process 153 was probably the most beautiful bike that's been made. They had the colors on the carbon process 153 perfect as well. Sadly, they completely changed the look of the aluminum 153 and the process x replaced the 153 carbon. Still love kona bikes though, planning on getting a 134 29 once my local bike shop gets the 2022 ones in stock👍

[@millerman692]

Anyone know where she is from? I love her accent.

[@MGMAlternative]

Squamish, BC! But most people think I'm American based on my accent. Haha.

[@mhorz2x]

how tall are you, miranda?

[@steffen748]

I think she mentioned she's 1,78m in another Video. Idk what that equals in retard Units tho

[@whatthehellareyoustarinat8569]

@@steffen748 "Retard units" That is soooooo funny. Thank you for making my day. That was hilarious!!!

I'm 177cm-ish and 71kg-ish

When describing her bike to noobs (like me.) i do not think she is speaking English.
