Well I had owned it for 2 years until some thieving bastards stole it from my garage yesterday.

[SilveryFoxster]

I've had my 575 for two years now, love it, best bike I've ever owned.

YETI > SPECIALIZED, INTENSE, and ELLSWORTH.

I would kill for the 303 or the 575.

@skapunkarmy

The 575 rides really well and in 2008 they made it stiffer in the rear end and I wish they custom made a ASR 5 29r, that would sell well for us tall lanky fellas like me at 6ft 7in. The problems I had with my 2008 575 were the shock bolts and how soft the aluminum is and they cost $100 to replace. This bike climbs so well in the propedal setting #3 at your rider weight.

@skapunkarmy kill me and you can have 303

Racing super D

Great video and very professional. I am curious to know why 575 shouldn't be raced on...I think i heard the word "supple" which would characterize the bike/ suspension as responsive. Wouldn't that be something you would look for in a bike for competition. The alloy version is 28lbs, a pound more than it's competitor the fuel ex, which is 27lbs. Dropping a couple pounds shouldn't be that difficult. So is this bike completely ruled out of racing?

[dko687]

@therealfroboi93

just look at the geometry. Not at all suitable for a racebike.

[yetibiker08]

@dko687

Depends what you use it for but Super D awesome!! 12/24 hour enduros awesome XC yeah I agree but it is not designed for XC racing. Ride one and check it out, I loved mine it was awesome. I had to sell it cause I was laid off.

[machokyle45]

@therealfroboi93 its not the weight

the more travel, the more energy goes into compressing the shock instead of to the rear wheel

[lonella5]

I'm in dilema Ellsworth Moment or Yeti 575 currently riding Ellsworth Truth going for AM

[zahararaks]

Yeti or no bike for me LOVE my orange 575 2008 made in usa

[kristoferrayner]

Been riding an '08 model for a year now. Great all-around do-it-all bike. From lunch time rides to 30 mile epics, it's a confidence inspiring ride that I'm still learning to make full use off. Big boys like myself (240lbs) should consider a bolt on rear hub and front through-axle hub.

[dannybong14]

thers no fit damper in the shocks its a fork based cartrage basted damper

[alexthemtbr]

Can you make a review on the asr-7 and the 303r dh? Thanx. Yeti is by far the best bike company. Can wait to get my next one.

[thebman90]

Once you ride a yeti, you'll never ride anything else. Hands-down, best aggressive trail bike out there.

[Yessj]

Gosh, the tapered carbon fiber pivots are so thin at the end
