My New Bike is The FUTURE of Mountain Bikes!!

Yes people welcome back to the channel so I join you from Snak skin rapid headquarters down in the south of Manchester yes people welcome back to the channel thanks for tuning in to see what we’ve got in store for this one very exciting so I join you from the

North of Manchester at Snak skin rapping headquarters I have to think a lot about that brain’s not working very well today so directly behind me you can probably sort of see a little bit of it now we have a new bike the bike that I’ll be riding throughout the 2024 season still

With a lot of the brands that I’ve been with for the last year or so so you’ll see more about that soon we did go out to pick the bike up from the European headquarters for Z Road um so yeah let’s get straight into this one this is the bike for the 202 We’ve had a custom wrap on it by Jake he’s done something absolutely wonderful we weren’t sure what we were going to actually do do um we had a bit of a discussion between us how can we make it sort of stand out a bit more than anyone

Else that’s going to go and get potentially one of these frames um and yeah that was it sort of Jake’s idea that and it’s turned out absolutely wonderful um so just to get into a few specs of the bike this is the same size

As I was on last year on a size large kti P so that’s the 29er version but the difference with this Frame is something I think a lot of people have been waiting for this has the new trigger ship system so this is basically running the smart shift that pinion have created so

Previously it was running on a grip shift and now they’ve created this little system that runs it’s still cable actuated but it’s basically sending electronic signal rather than pulling our pushing anything um but it still feels like a sort of a normal trigger system uh we going to run Fox 38 and the

Dhx2 on this bike I will be taking this down to jtech to get custom tuned uh within the coming months we’ve brought on a brand called title that uh distributed through Free Ride UK so I’ll link all the links in below and you can

If you want to go and pick up some of this stuff in the UK it’s quite hard to get old off Free Ride UK is the place that’s the stem that we’re going for little 4 piece um yeah if there’s anything I missed I will tag it on at

The end of the video speak a bit more about the bike get it out in the daylight cuz it’s actually pretty dark outside now um and we’re going to go ahead stick the wheels Forks in and you can see sort of build a bike most of the

Hard work’s done you don’t actually have to index any GE or anything that comes like this from the factory so beautiful so thanks to everyone tuning in let’s do it Good morning people welcome back to the channel so you’ve obviously seen by now we are on the new zero ctio this is the 2024 version of the bike obviously now rocking the smart shift with the uh trigger shifter absolutely amazing so far I’ve only ridden up one little Hill and so

Far the difference is pretty good although that being said I quite like the grip shifter now after using it for a while so there’s pros in both but we’re going to find out shortly how this thing fares up so obviously this year we’re running the fox 38 front and rear

I will be taking them to jtech to get the piston kits fitted I apologies if it’s a bit windy it’s uh not a very nice day today as you can see but first ride day we’re going to get it so yeah like I said we’ve gone with the

Zebra call it the Zeb road now the zebra rear end custom wrapped by snaky Jake we got few of the sponsors on the rear wheel there jtech juice lose shout out yeah so far so good going to try the tacky Chan on the rear I’ve not ridden one of these in

A while so we’re going to see how that gets on we’re still rocking the dirty down on the front cuz it’s still fairly moist and yeah that is the vessel size large 475 reach we’re on the title bar and stem 40 mil stem 25 mil rise bars there’s the

Battery basically so this is a rechargeable battery um they say that it’s very rare you’re going to have to charge this thing it controls uh this module here obviously shifts very fast um yeah so let me know what you think I think she’s an absolute peace over the

Moon with it yeah right over and out I’m going to get into the first ride you’ll probably be seeing that probably in a week’s time drop a like if you think the bike’s amazing I really do and it’s so quiet so Elliot’s waiting for me we’re

Going to get into this one see you soon love you By Down
