    Amazing review Joey! I have just recently started pedaling MTB this year and picked up a 2020 Giant Trance 3 29er... I have been contemplating getting another bike and after all my reads online, I am seriously leaning towards the Jeffsy. I think your review just put me over the top and solidified my decision. LOL ;) Great video! What to you think are the best things about this bike? I am pretty much a beginner at MTB but apparently this is a great all-around bike for my trail needs here in dry Phoenix, AZ trails.

    JR Espinoza hey! So the bike felt TIGHT when riding it around my driveway, which is all the riding I could get in this weekend unfortunately. Very little power loss from crank to wheel. The NX Eagle has the same technology as the GX so your not really losing with NX. Just the part are a little more plastic and it a smidge heavier (we’re talking grams). Also, I debated the Capra too thinking that the Jeffsy wouldn’t hold up or was too thin/weak for hard hit. To my surprise, this thing is a beast itself. I should have stated this in my video as I’m glad I opted for the Jeffsy. Capra is a pure downhill bike- too much of everything for trail riding. The cassette is one of those loud annoying one’s but you can always replace that easily.

    Separate add on item that pops up in a handy menu along with pedals/chain guide/frame protection when you order. Do yourself a massive favour and pay the extra 80 dollars or whatever for frame wrap. All carbon bikes need em in my opinion and its a headache putting them on (4-5 hours of swearing) let alone ordering the right bloody kit from invis for that specific bike. 100% essential upgrade.

    Hi, great video thanks. I am also thinking about getting a YT bike for training. Just curious, why did you o for the Jeffsy? Did you consider the Capra at all and if why did you decide to go for the Jeffsy and what made you choose the Comp version? A lot of questions, bare with me 😄

  • @holidayjoey

    4 жыл бұрын

    cwmikael all good questions: 1. Why Jeffsy? I knew I would be doing more trail riding than anything (flats, climbs, mild downhill) and didn’t want the extra weight and rake of the Capra. I’m glad I picked the Jeffsy. Don’t be fooled- It’s a beast of a bike. Capra is for more aggressive downhill- park style with man made jumps etc.. while aim all about that, I knew it wouldn’t be my 90% on the bike. You might be the opposite- I don’t know. Just be honest with yourself about where you’ll ride the most and make the decision based on that. If you do, you love either for the proper terrain.

  • @holidayjoey

    cwmikael 2. I chose the comp, because the upgrades weren’t enough to justify the extra $$. The components are simply separated by type of material, vs different technology. If I want, Incan always upgrade later, but the NX has been more than fine thus far. The YT guys actually talked me out of going a model higher as well!
