I personally ride an SB6, I love it, but I think I would have "more fun" on a 5, but I think the 5 requires really good riding to make it sing! Come to think of it, I got a lot better at mountain biking since owning the 6. Go Figure. Thanks Mark Jones!

Curious as what your opinion would be of the yeti compared to a pivot switchblade, have you ever rode one?

I ordered the SB130 and have been riding the demo bike while I wait for mine. I currently have the SB5 (27.5) and love it. The SB130 is chance for me to step into a more endure bike as my son pushes me that way. After about 60 miles on the bike I noticed: 1.) It climbs noticeably better - mostly I can stand on the pedals during a steep climb and maintain traction the way the SB5 cannot. 2.) The SB130 is way more stable on rough, rocky and chunky terrain than anything I've ever ridden - it is insane to me 3.) The SB130 is noticeably less playful than the SB5, but I didn't buy it to replace the SB5. 4.) I do endurance mountain bike races - this bike sucks for 'hike a bike'. There is no where to comfortably grasp the bike to lift. During a race (even shorter races) there are times you need to pick up your bike quickly and haul ass - it is strangely awkward to pick up this bike. This bike is easily beyond my skill level, so I will spend the next year+ trying to catch up to it.

What are the chances of doing a review of the LR SB 130 ? I'm coming off a SB6 with a Push 11/6 coil. What's your opinion of a 130 with the over stroked LR 136, with the 11/6 rear coil and a FOX 36 GRIP 2 160 fork. How will it compare to the 150, will it blow the SB6 away ? I live in BC, I enter in 4-5 Enduro races a year in the Masters +40. I'm struggling with this decision.

@OutdoorGold

5 жыл бұрын

I doubt I will be able to get my hands on a 130 LR, though I’ve seen the spec and it looks make the 130 LR more rad. Honestly I’m a huge fan of the 6 but for enduro the 150 is going to give you a higher downhill ceiling vs. even the 130 LR. The 130 is a great bike but from the info I have, perhaps you should try to get a demo on a 150. I’m torn as to which I like more between the 130 and the 6, as far as basic features go, the 130 but I’m also biased for 27.5 and feel the they are close to equal. I like the SB6 more but I could see riding the 130 for an extended period of time could tip the scales.

Hi guys, I'm thinking seriously about the yeti SB 130 from frame only custom build !! Couple of questions will getting a 160 fork be fine with the 130 out back will it effect the climbing ? Compared with the standard 130 / 150 ? & Can you run the Assaggi in a 2.4 being slightly different profile than the DHr 2 ? As I live in North yorkshire UK & can be fairly wet at times !! But I tend to ride in fairly well drained areas ! As always many thanks for your help ! I'm having to decide between the 130 & 150 for my one bike ; we have gisburn & stainburn trail / bike parkish centres around us & I do a lot of natural trails very close by lots of roots & rocks & often muddy ! Once again love to hear your thoughts re; SB 130 & putting a 160 fork upfront ! I guess it would add stability ! Will it effect the climbing prowess !!! Regards Drew.

@OutdoorGold

5 жыл бұрын

1) a larger fork will marginally effect the climbing for the worse IMO, but emphasis on the MARGINAL part, its simply a trade off 2) You can run the Asseggi, but its mostly a "grip" tire from what I heard, whereas the DHR2 speciallizes in corners and has less rolling resistance. Less rolling resistance usually equals less grip. Most people would run the A up front and the DHR in the rear. Some people find it beneficial to run Front and Rear Dhr's for a really fast ride.

RC great review. I liked the 150 review also. Sitting here in Salt Lake with a huge dilemma. I am getting a new bike soon. Rode the 130 and absolutely loved it. However, I’m a bigger rider at 230 ready to ride and I bottomed out the 130 on some pretty easy trails. I don’t know that I am going to be able to demo a 150 before I really want to pull the trigger on new bike day. Is the 150 way overkill? I know individual experiences may vary. Just looking for an opinion from someone who rode both pretty hard.

@OutdoorGold

Very good comment Oldman_MTB! My opinion keeps changing with every ride. Me personally I liked the 150 more than the 130 but for ME, I would probably go with the 130. NOW, I've really given some second thoughts to my 150 statements about it being "too much bike". I don't think thats the case anymore, that's a bike that has a "limitless" ceiling and you can really grow into the frame. At 230, if I was you, YOU SHOULD GO with the 150, you get the best of both worlds and I feel the 150 would be very natural to you and its a super fun bike!

How would you say this rides compared to the sb5.5? I actually chose an sb5.5 over this (price, and no need for a new offset fork), but am curious what people think that have tested both. I also had read that the 130 wasn't the best in chunky terrain....which is what we have here. The shorter stays also weren't the appealing to me. I had a bike with 429mm stays and it just fish tailed around in really lose rocky terrain (both up and down). Glad I went with the 5.5.

Yep, the 130 is going to get bucked around more than the 5.5 with poor line choices. Obviously the 5.5 splits the difference between the 150 and 130. Factor in the current price point of the 5.5, its still a fully capable ride in 2019.

Wow! Very nice review! I realy like your channel! Have you ever tried the Rocky Mountain Instinct C90 BC Edition 2018-2019? I am currently riding the 2018. But I always had a crush for the Yeti. I feel that my Instinct BC is between the sb130 and the sb150. What do you think? If you should have a single bike between sb130 and sb150, which one would you choose as a polivalent bike? I know that the logical answer is the sb130 but is the compromise in the climb for the sb150 worth its superiority downhill?

@OutdoorGold

5 жыл бұрын

I have not ridden the Instinct, though my impression of the Instinct are very good. Everyone I know that runs one loves it. I think the Instinct falls closer to the 130 rather than 150. The 150 is kind of in a league of its own. I like to tell people I like the 150 more than the 130 but would rather have the 130, my statement sits on shaky ground considering I think the 150 is a really sophisticated bike that takes time to get used to. The 150 is really really legit. I don't think you'll compromise with the 150 on the climbs, it climbs really really well and has a higher BB than the 130 with is helpful in many cases. The only obvious weakness is downhill tight trail cornering on the 150. Another thing to consider is the 150 has a thicker carbon layout, so it could be durable than the 130 as well.

RC just found your channel. Excellent review with nice details! I have ridden PBR and Joe's ridge and can appreciate your flow comments a lot. I am 6'2 220lbs and noticed the latest Yeti Geom sizing chart widened the ranges for L and XL vs what showed at the time. XL might be better for me as I do like the more "in the bike cockpit feel" as long as it isn't too reached out. I demo'd an SB5.5 L and XL and liked the XL feel better...but I note they changed cockpit so hoping to find a demo on the east coast to try both sizes. Also, I noticed on MTBR that more people are size are running 0.6" volume spacers in SB130 shock. Does your LBS have this as their experience as well.

I hesite to the SB130 or the Giant Trance Advanced 1 29er...I don't know what to choice :(

I bought a 130 from Ryan at Ruby Canyon and absolutely love it! I've never been on a better climbing bike. The choppier and more technical the climb, the better the bike performs. Point the bike down, and it eats everything in Grand Junction! Sure, bigger bikes would be better on some of the larger drops, but I highly doubt anything with more suspension climbs remotely like this bike. I haven't ridden anything that comes close to the 130 for all an all round bike for GJ's varied terrain (and I demo'd quite a few bikes this summer/fall). It should be noted I like a bike that excels more at climbing than 6 foot drops.

The 160mm will help in those big hit situations and when you're riding blind. Would also be a good video to throw on a coil and compare. An sb130 bike park video would also be awesome.

@@brewweasel I'm definitely stoked for these new updates to trickle into the 27.5" bikes and I hope you're right! Even though I'm not the biggest 29er fan, I still can really appreciate where these bikes have gone, which is definitely in the right direction!

@@OutdoorGold do you prefer the SB6C to the SB130? I absolutely love my SB6C but haven't tried these new bikes. I'm also around 230 pounds and not highly skilled.

@@deanherde805 I do prefer the SB6 (thats my personal/primary ride) but only because I prefer 27.5" bikes. Literally, thats it. The SB130 is superior in everyway however, the new bells and whistles, geometry, and suspension design. The SB130 is the future, but I'm hoping all the awesome new features trickle into the 27.5" models for 2019/20

That little trap door is kinda dumb. Getting that dropper housing up towards the seat tube still sucks. Why didnt they run an internal tube up over that bend?

I rode PBR on my hard tail last year. Its not a Yeti but it did good. Yeti is so expensive that most people cant even afford them. I am sure that when I start making my videos companies will be just giving me bikes like they do for you. I don't think I would even take a Yeti if it was free. Yeti is like a bad rash "Once you scratch that itch it just spreads all over". You did a good job with the camera angles this time but you shouldn't talk over the whole thing.

Bomb ass review the bike not so much. For the price it's not a question of if it could handle these trails it's should kill the trails.

Great review but can we stop with the yeti’s??? Can we mix in a huffy or a mongoose 🙄
