I love the Polygon Mountain Bike, I love the Grey & Black colour scheme & I’m going to learn how to do all of this Cool Mountain Bike stuff, it just looks Awesome. I reckon I’ll keep my Bike for at least 2 0 Years & I’d just upgrade the front suspension & rear shock every few years. I love the dropper post & am running tubeless tyres at a low pressure for comfort & better grip when riding!.. This Mountain Bike looks really Expensive & makes me look Rich!

I tried to buy a t8 a couple years ago. They didn't indicate it, but they were apparenty out of stock and let me buy it anyway. After waiting 3 weeks and nothing shipped, I cancelled my order and ended up buying a Diamondback Release instead. Both are solid bikes. Fair warning for anyone going this route - see if they have the bike you are buying, especialy if you are in a hurry or comparison shopping against another deal that is time-sensitive.

Been shredding my T7 for 2 years great entry bike and a great price! The frame is built like a tank and I've taken mine on everything from jumps to really gnarly single track and I've never felt better on a bike in the woods. Enjoy the bike I love mine!

@chickensendies

@tachoma8493 glad you enjoyed it! I personally feel the T8 at the price is a terrific deal. Parts and components are all nice and Unless you find other brands discounted it will be a great deal. Canyon have some nice options on sell as well so you can definitely check them out. But, I do like the Polygon for what you get at the price 😁

Super informative video!! The length was not an issue at all, given that you showed the bike capabilities very well. Riding a Trek Marlin 6 hard tail and looking for a budget full suspension. This is definitely one to consider. Thank you for a great review and maybe we’ll run into each other at Griffin sometime.

So, you're 5'10 and a Medium fits OK? I bought a D7se in Medium and it feels small even though the bike sizer recommended it. Was going to return in for a T7 in Large because that's what the online sizer recommends. D7se in Large is OOS. I am only ~5'9" though.

Honestly at the end of the day they have their "recommendations" but you still may not like how it fit and feels. I am 5' 10" with a 32" inseam and this bike felt and rode great for me. I'd say if you don't like it definitely go for the large and see 😁😁😁
