Here is my ride and review on the Polygon Siskui t7. This bike honestly has a lot of bang for the buck in a very nice looking and riding package! Hope you all enjoy! Affiliate link for the bike bikesonline-us...

Been shredding my T7 for 2 years great entry bike and a great price! The frame is built like a tank and I've taken mine on everything from jumps to really gnarly single track and I've never felt better on a bike in the woods. Enjoy the bike I love mine!

How do you all feel about longer videos when I make them? I typically try to stay around 8-10 minutes but this one ran almost 20. let me know what you think?!?!?!
@fracturedrider10 ай бұрын
Didn't feel like 20min. Good mix of riding and talking, so more this 💪🔥

Idk how I feel about the longer videos. Keep making them though, I was entertained. I like that at the end of the ride you talk about the bike.

I love the Polygon Mountain Bike, I love the Grey & Black colour scheme & I’m going to learn how to do all of this Cool Mountain Bike stuff, it just looks Awesome. I reckon I’ll keep my Bike for at least 2 0 Years & I’d just upgrade the front suspension & rear shock every few years. I love the dropper post & am running tubeless tyres at a low pressure for comfort & better grip when riding!.. This Mountain Bike looks really Expensive & makes me look Rich!

I tried to buy a t8 a couple years ago. They didn't indicate it, but they were apparenty out of stock and let me buy it anyway. After waiting 3 weeks and nothing shipped, I cancelled my order and ended up buying a Diamondback Release instead. Both are solid bikes. Fair warning for anyone going this route - see if they have the bike you are buying, especialy if you are in a hurry or comparison shopping against another deal that is time-sensitive.

Super informative video!! The length was not an issue at all, given that you showed the bike capabilities very well. Riding a Trek Marlin 6 hard tail and looking for a budget full suspension. This is definitely one to consider. Thank you for a great review and maybe we’ll run into each other at Griffin sometime.

Most of my main videos are between like 16 minutes and 20 minutes. The only difference to me is if it's a longer video like this I don't always watch it right away I wait until I know I have 20 minutes to sit and watch it but I always do watch it

So, you're 5'10 and a Medium fits OK? I bought a D7se in Medium and it feels small even though the bike sizer recommended it. Was going to return in for a T7 in Large because that's what the online sizer recommends. D7se in Large is OOS. I am only ~5'9" though.
@chickensendies7 ай бұрын
Honestly at the end of the day they have their "recommendations" but you still may not like how it fit and feels. I am 5' 10" with a 32" inseam and this bike felt and rode great for me. I'd say if you don't like it definitely go for the large and see 😁😁😁

Do you typically ride mediums? I’m the same height as you and cannot figure out if a medium or large is best suited. According to polygons charts I’m right in between frame sizes.

So, I typically ride mediums and this video is a medium. I have recently had a T9 sent to me for review and it is a large. The large honestly fits very nicely 😁
