All right, fine, fine, fine I’ve subscribed 😂. I’d like to ride an ARI SLemtb in the near future. I dig the 23 point point custom bike setup. Honestly it’s more important to me now due to neurological blues I’ve been dealing with 😎. Awesome video with Ari Bikes then it’s slaying the 🔥 trails over at EverStoke 🙌🏼. Thanks for sharing your experience with both on this episode. You deserve a cold one 🍻

Love it! ARI is doing a great job, love how they spec there bikes with awesome parts! Not only are there bikes named after Peaks and trails but the name ARI means cool things in a bunch of languages. I’m so stoked to camp in Everstoke in July. You didn’t mention your take on the Maven’s … another video?

@@mattspen Everstoke is a great camp location. You have to go ride Mills Peak. I’m working on a video about that trial right now. On the Maven’s,,, I didn’t like them at first. They didn’t feel like they grabbed enough on the initial bite. Im used to riding TRP DHR EVO and Shimano XT brakes. However, after riding with the Maven’s I started to like them on steep terrain and corners. The modulation allows you to slow down without locking up and sliding. I think I’d have to do more testing on them. I guess my initial impressions was that they’re good but not worth spending that much money on them for most riders like me.

@@JaredHoff I appreciate the detailed response!!! My DIY eBike (CYC x1 Pro Gen 4) is stupid fast and the current brakes aren’t enough, so I’ve been looking into Maven’s but saw mixed reviews. Mills Peak looks awesome! Will do for sure!
TRP components (tektro racing products) is a division of tektro which is a relatively small family owned business founded in 1986 in Taiwan, not related to Shimano.

Tektro needs to work on the pad compound. If you have the Gemini SL a swap to Shimano H series pads (saint) is night and day better than the TRP

@@Mrochoa246 thanks for subscribing. You might need to hit me up on FB messenger or instagram @JaredHoff. Both are great options depending on what trails you ride most. I think the Fuel EX is the best “all around” MTB that can ride everything from all day pedals to lift access bike parks. Usually people end up with both a Hardtail and a F/S because the Hardtail can be a lot more fun to ride on some trails as well. I’d say if you go with the Roscoe 9 just know that you’ll probably end up with a second bike later on down the road. But I only have full suspension bikes and I’d love to have a Roscoe 9 for some of my local trails. I don’t think there’s a wrong choice.
Would you leave Polygon for Ari?

The rear brake line seems in an exposed place on the rear chainstay on all their bikes. Strange internal/external routing.

@@JaredHoff I prefer the brake line come through the frame above the bb and zip tied neatly on the inside of the chainstay, where it is protected and neatly out of the way. It is not any harder to get to that brake line than these Ari bikes. They both run internally in the down tube.

Sorry dude, it would have probably taken him a shorter period of time to just answer your quick question then go find a video, comment telling you to go watch the video and then linking it. I’ll answer your question. It doesn’t really seem like their is a really valid reason for rebranding aside from what the definition of “Ari” means and how that definition aligns more with their vision of the company and where they want to go in the foreseeable future. Rebranding is extremely expensive. I am a small business owner myself so I’m aware of how much it would cost me to rebrand and I’m not even close to the size of a big company like Ari. In my opinion, I’m sure there are legitimate reasons for the rebrand aside from the the definition of the word “Ari”
