Yeti 303 Bike Review

[TheKtm884]

im about to turn 15 an im 115 pounds and my height is 5,5 ish.. i am planning on getting this bike is the small size.. what do you think?

[Jahcure420]

this bike absolutely sucks balls, it is too high maintenance, you have to grease the rails after every DH run, too many moving parts and too many nuts and bolts, who the hell wants something like this, they stopped making it...... canfields have remained the same for the past 12 years

[matthewbattenfelder9]

dont listen to this guy, purely downhill race, i huck mine of drops all the time, and im 6-3 225lbs. and destroyed it? everyone has mashed a derailleur, and a wheel, if your not, your not riding. this is insulting to riding, i hate guys that tell you you cant ride unless you have a specific bike for that trail, your killing biking. ride your dh rig to work, take your hardtail to the hill, who cares.

@matthewbattenfelder9 You're comment is what's killing biking. You're uneducated and frankly the reason people dislike mtn bikers. It's like saying, take your Farrari off-roading and race your lifted Wrangler at the track - moronic!

[Jahcure420]

Did you change the color to black, of the frame?

[FLIKbin33]

@Jahcure420 both black and teal and yellow (team colors)

nice short review :)

[insanitylevel99]

pause at 37 seconds what the hell is wrong with the rim

[FLIKbin33]

@insanitylevel99 That was a demo bike we were reviewing. Took a good spill earlier that week and "tweaked" the wheel!

[insanitylevel99]

@FLIKbin33 oooohhhh

hi, erm there is a really quite technical lump of grass outside my house, and i struggle on it so you would reccomend this for it?

[PercussiveSound]

theres alot of techy downhill bike only trails around my house, would this bike be good for that? or am i going to need something else...

[FLIKbin33]

@PercussiveSound This bike is a bit much for that. Really meant for racing only. I would look into a more nimble bike like the shorter travel Yeti ASR 7, if you are dead set on Yeti. There is a misconception that you need a full on DH rigg for technical down hill trails. Most 6"-7" travel bikes will do just fine (lighter and more maneuverabe).

[tmcco27]

@PercussiveSound i ride some realy narly tracks and i say et a norco aline

[pranavananda]

IMHO Yeti rules in DH bikes designs... since lawwill 6, 8, 9 and this machine...

[KBComputerMods]

park tools ftw

[THEFEZ10]

im getting a job to make money to buy one of thoose.. it mite take a while

[FLIKbin33]

good luck! I'm sure it will be well worth all the hard work. I've demo'd one and it descends really well. I bit heavy, but it it DH specific!

[alextroch]

@THEFEZ10 same here

i ride solvistas bike park in colorado, is the 303 a good bike for that. i seen some dude named cody on one and he looked fast. thanks

[Ishatawk]

Are those Manowar flats? I have those too!

[FLIKbin33]

Easton Flatboys. The Bike Co's sponsored riders use Easton components - seat posts, pedals, bars, etc.

[Ishatawk]

Ah I see. Easton is class.

...I probably should have recognized but then again they're a lot like manowars (big, black, large pins, big).

Cheers!

[FLIKbin33]

Sick indeed! Not sure, but likely by new year. Shoot an email to yeti through their website for specific date.

Thanks.
