Mega comparison: my 8 FAVORITE trail mountain bikes.

HUGE thanks to Endura for their support! In the summer months, I use the Singletrack Short: https://jenson.sjv.io/EnduraSingletrackShortJKW along with the https://jenson.sjv.io/EnduraSingletrackJerseyJKW Any purchases from those links- or the following- will directly help support my channel, and it’s a big part of how I’m able to make all these videos. Thanks everyone!

While the competitors make great stuff too, I always end up feeling most confident on a bike when using the parts to which I am most accustomed. Thanks Shimano!
