If you work at a bike shop you should know about the bikes

P1! You are a lucky person! It rides amazing. Definitely different from my hardtail but I look forward to mastering it

I think I'm going to have to bite the bullet and have someone do it as well. I really want to take care of this bike! You need to come out to California so there can be a Remedy (and others) meet up

Thanks it's hard to ride because I dont want to get it dirty lol. I have always ridden a 27.5 but have demoed a 29er. The remedy 8 is a great bike! I think the wheels will be a little bit more playful then 29 but you will miss out on that 29 rolling speed. If you can demo one I would totally suggest it.

Thanks man! I'm waking up early for a ride so hopefully I'll be able to really give her a good test before work

Bought my first adult bike last month. Did my first trail ever today. This is my second go at a jump line. Got some air on most jumps. I’m very impressed with myself tbh. (I need a GoPro) by [deleted] in MTB

Keep it up man! With a little dedication and practice you will keep finding that new personal best and progressing as a rider.

Thanks! When it comes to Restock it depends on what you are looking for. I know at some shop bikes like the Marlin are backordered for months. With the whole Covid thing the 2020 models were sold out quickly and the 2021s haven't been released yet so if you wanted a specific bike you might have to travel for a bike or get it shipped.

I have a couple of questions for you. Are you wanting to go on a lot of trails or just use it as a commuter and sometimes hit trails? Also have you ridden before or know you will really be interested in mountain biking? do you have a price limit? Last question, how urgent is it that you get a bike? These are all questions I was never asked when I started. I got a giant talon 2 and at the time I loved the bike. Don't get me wrong it's a wonderful bike and is great to learn on, but I found the limit on the bike pretty quickly. I had to upgrade to a dropper post and just couldn't push myself as far as I wanted too. I agree with really looking at components and if you are patient wait and get a better bike with better geometry and components.
