Came for the content, Stayed for Doddy's "However"

I would say before going for a trail ride you should bed-in the disc brakes. As simple as getting some moderate speed and then gently making the pads rub against the rotor without locking them, repeat a couple of times.

Love seeing the polygons on the channel. Much more affordable and I love mine. Been to several bike parks and bashed it properly still running fine. And everyone at the trails say it looks great.

which one do you have and what thoughts do you have about it?

This type of videos are my ASMR I already knew everything but it's good to have a recap on this information

Great cool, greetings from the Indonesian bicycle shop

After watching this video multiple times without a bike, let alone a FS bike, Im now watching this video with a FS bike on route. 😁

Excellent job, I have been riding over 20 years and I found this useful

Great tip on the spacers for the rise of the handlebars. Cut down a few now but never occurred to me to put the spacers on top and play around with the height before actually permanently cutting them down.

Thank you ! So basic and so professional we feel the passion in every word of it ! 👌

Great idea to make this 'index' video that points to those very detailed tutorials made before. I'm saving this one to watch before all maintenance in my bike. Thank you Doddy!

Great video! everything you need to know from unboxing to your first ride. Thanks Doddy 👊😎

Building up my Siskiu S6 tomorrow, can't wait to get it on the trails!

Just bought a 2021 Fuel EX 5 today, my first full suspension...and here comes GMBN. Brilliant!

Excellent video! 💯My YT Jeffsy arrived last week, so this would have been SUPER helpful and will be for anyone else. Fortunately, I have already watched all of Doddy's great tutorials, so setup was a breeze! The only thing I thought should have been included is bedding the brakes, but most folks probably end up doing that naturally on the trail anyway. I'll be sure to share this with others! 👍🏻

Literally getting mine Monday afternoon this video will be perfect gonna add to watch later

This is very good timing. My new bike arrived yesterday! :D

These tech vids from this presenter are the absolute best of their kind. It would be great if you could catalog them into a series (or if there is one please let me know). Cheers!

Very useful info particularly since I bought the same Polygon Siskiu T8 this year. Very tight, comprehensive presentation as expected from Doddy.

Awesome video!! Are you guys going to do a review on the t8?

I've just subscribe to GMBN.. I think I've watched about 5 hrs worth of vids, from how to, to fails 'n bails. Keep it up guys

I just purchased this bike. Funny I watched this video about a year ago with no interest in buying a new bike. Then now after I purchased it I realized I watched this video and got this exact bike without realizing it hahaha. Thanks for the build tips!

very clear tutorial. I have polygon T7 and it feel really great even ride on gravity/enduro track

Thank you GMBN for this video. That's my dream bike Polygon Siskiu T8, so sad I can not get it coz at Indonesia it's so hard to get frame size XL which is fit to my body size. Now I will apply the knowledge from this video to my brand new Patrol 591.

It has been 6 months since the arrival of my Commencal, so I plan to go through it according to this video and see how I am doing. I will especially be looking for "loose bolts". :)

Yeah Polygon from Indonesia. Good Product. Thats my Dream Bike

@@bobbyflay4104 Been running it through its paces and its is not bad at all! Granted, this is my first Full Sus, but I have ridden plenty of rentals and some of my buddies' bikes that are full sus (Giants, Transitions, Ibis) Even though these components are suppose to be the bottom end they are great! Even unlocked no pedal bob on the long climbs. The brakes are really impressive. I'm coming from Tektro Gemini to the ones on the T7 and its definitely a nice upgrade even though some have complained about little modulation. I think its fine. As of now the only weak point for me is the fork, which I don't think is bad at all... just wish I had more rebound control. Another pleasant surprise were the tires. BikesOnline says they might come with either the Schwalbes in a 2.6 or the WTB Trail Boss in a 2.4... i ended up with the WTBs and im o happy I did! I dont shy away from long climbs and I was previously riding 2.2s for a while. I can definitely feel the difference in size on the climbs giving me more resistance. Happy I didnt get the 2.6s The WTBs have handled NorCal rock gardens and granite really well. Excellent Grip! Also, after being a SRAM guy for years, the Deore drivetrain has really eased my concerns about going back to Shimano. Rock solid hardware there. REALLY happy with my T7 and would not hesitate to recommend Polygon and the T7 to anyone.

love the mtb vids keep up the great work 🚲❤️

Always come back to this, thanks Doddy!

Thank you for the thorough explanations of differences in positions for saddle, brakes, etc. My Siskiu T8 arrives today and i feel better prepared to dial the adjustments necessary. Just need a torque allen and some of the seat post lube.

Fantastic video, thanks. I have a Polygon T8 on order but here in NZ we have a direct importer LBS for Polygon so won’t just be getting a box of bits, the hard work is done. Very useful video for adjustments, sag setup etc.

As people from the country of origin of that brand. I guess lots of people from my country gone absolutely banana about this video. Wish you guys do more promotion or sneak peak of other brand other than big brand. Nice job doddy.

@@isaacschmitz4168, I do. I have it in XL and received it in May so I have almost 700 miles on it now. I have done a variety of rides and its held up great. I have a XL and it is heavy out the box, 36lbs, but it wears it weight well. The geo for me was great and required little tweaking for adjustments. I did do some upgrades to the breaks as I had XT brakes before and can't do without them. One finger breaking is so nice. The Tektro's to me we not Death but I did not like that it would not slow me down enough on high speed with one finger. I had to grab with 2 fingers in order to get the pressure needed and even that isnt as good at the XT brakes. I did even try the metal pads on ICE rotors. That did help the brakes but after 50 miles I got the XT set and never turned back. Thats the only real thing I changed so far but I do have some Hunt Wheelset on order and planning to run those 1858g wheelsets with some 2.4 XC type tires to see how it all feels. The stock wheel set are heavy but the Tires are great. I like the Dampf and they have held up well but I just got rock slashes on the rear so I changed it to Trail Kings that are similar in pattern but a soft tire feel, all around. Would I recommend the bike to someone, Yes! Would I purchase it again, Yes! Is it perfect, aside from the weight, its the best bang for buck trail bike you will find and you will have fun with it. If I can get the weight down to 32lbs in XL, I will be happy as it is a bulky beast in the rear.

The thing with people recommending to put grease on the seat post. It can be ok on some bikes, but I have a hardtail with a seatpost that just kept sliding down during rides, no matter how tight I made the clamp. I suggest you use gripping compound instead. It will work like grease to prevent corrosion, but it won't be slippery in an application that relies on friction to work.

I’d still recommend a new bike. It wouldn’t be beat up and hiding problems, and would last longer.

Apart from the internal cable routing that Kona frame looks identical to my 2020 Bossnut 😉

I like to add protective frame tape, downtube protectors when the bike is new out of the box as opposed to wishing you did so after the fact. Just never know, especially nowadays with the pricepoints of these bikes to keep them upheld at the best condition you can, while enjoying them.

Thank you for this, I really want to upgrade to full sus

Make sure that you really consider your trails and needs first though. It's the job of many bike companies to try to make you feel like you need a full suspension bike, when a lot of the time people just end up spending too much money on a bike that they didn't really need and won't get full use out of. Either way, it's your choice.

Polygon manufacture Calibre bikes. In fact they manufacture the bikes of several brands.

15.00 pedals. I always thought this was the way from my old days, but my new Nukeproof Horizon pedals loosen when pedaling forward and unscrew and fall out! Yes, the R is on the right and the L is on the left, but I have checked, double-checked, and triple-checked (and you know I could keep going on), but new pedals seem to be the total opposite in every review of pedals today, and this video is only three years old! I always remember from my racing days, etc., that the pedals would tighten toward the front, so they always tightened as pedaled, but apparently, it's a safety thing now-they unscrew when pedaling forward. 😂 Please let me know if anyone in 2024 is now seeing this, please? I have even commented a few times saying I'm going to have to put the L on the right side and the R on the left side just to make sure for safety reasons they never undo as pedalling forward! And when putting them on you hold the pedal and pedal the crank backwards for the pedal to tighten!? I need to know exactly for sure please if this is now a thing or have Nukeproof sent all these pedals out with the spindles in the wrong sides?

Awesome Video Amazing Bike Product Indonesia💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥

FYI Pre-Ordered Polygon Siskiu T8 for USA delivery yesterday, and today its locked again for pre-order on all sizes. They may have sold out the the batch due to the US in mid to late October.

I love the colour

Finally a Polygon

I've been saving to buy this bike and I'm super excited when I get it to know how to build it up.

Just bought this bike 😊 looking to testing it out it won't arrive till end of April so still awhile away lol 😂

Polygon is the best😀🎉

Great video. I just ordered this bike and having YOU walk me thru the setup is fantastic. Thank you!

Hi Doddy early in the video you said you would go through how to set the handle bar position as in rolled forward backward basic position did I miss it ?

I like to have the brake levers inside of the dropper post and shift levers - so I can get to the shift and dropper levers easily and so that the brake levers are still reachable with one or two fingers.

Great video... What are your thoughts on the siskiu t8?

Great video and super helpful as I’m setting up this exact bike. What size rim tape is best for the tubeless conversion of this bike?

I just finished building my Polygon Siskiu D7 a week ago. 😭 Wish this video were there, I did not put any grease on the seatpost and the handlebar.

nice shoes!

Bangga pakai Polygon 😎 Indonesia 🇮🇩

Nice vid

Hi just wanted to add on your video about checking your bolts and and though I would mention the seriousness of that and thought maybe you could make a video or include the extreme safety aspect of checking your bolts . The main reason is that a couple of days ago I purchased a second hand specialized stumpjumper from someone who had not ridden the bike much at all but had look after the bike well ...thats what I was told . I went out for a ride last night on the bike and started to hear and feel a click through my pedals so went home and checked it out to find that all 4 chain ring bolts only had about half a turn left on them before they would of fallen out ! That could of been very dangerous in so many different ways depending on if the chain got jammed and locked up the rear wheel or I could of jolted forward and gone over the handle bars . It would benefit alot of people to check there bikes if they buy second hand when they get them home so I would love for you to do a video and express the important of it and the safety aspect if it isn't done if it comes down to brake caliper bolts being loose and falling out it wel you can guess the rest . I hope you can do a video and hope this may help alot of people and have alot more confidence it there bikes too knowing they are safe 😊

I’ve watched about every bike video on KZread since my bike has been in the bike shop since around august 20th. I just wanna ride man

Wow polygon 😍👌

Seeing this video made me remember that I ran out of assembly compound, medium-strength thread locking compound and lithium grease. I still weep upon knowing that all the local bike shops, and even the local online shopping portals have the good but affordable torque wrenches still out of stock. 😢😢😢

I think I’d have put the pedals on before I turned the cranks to check the shifting 🤣

Great vid. Seriously contemplating that T8 for my next bike, replacing my 2014 Stumpjumper. I can justify £2k on a bike given current finances, definitely couldn't afford a new Stumpie. Do you have a vid anywhere reviewing this Siskuh?
