hi it's James from singletrack magazine
0:07
here shooting the bike test video to
0:09
issue one one eight three
0:11
direct-to-consumer bikes third bike that
0:14
we've got on test is the Samba evil GX
0:17
revelation so cool because it's got SRAM
0:20
GX eagle group set and rocks rocks
0:23
revelation Forks this is designed in the
0:25
UK as just a great all-around trail bike
0:28
it's not cross country bike it's not a
0:30
downhill bike either it's just meant for
0:32
having fun with you mates and riding
0:34
bikes 150 in the revelations at the
0:36
front we've got 140 miles four of our
0:39
suspension at the back and it starts at
0:41
899 for frame and shock which quite
0:44
frankly is ridiculous complete bikes
0:46
start at fifteen nine nine and progress
0:49
ups as you can upgrade to better Forks
0:51
bow group set as well as all the great
0:53
kit from tram pretty much everything
0:55
else comes from in-house brand love mud
0:57
you've got the wheels as far as grips
0:59
stem and saddle so the first thing I
1:03
really like about this is that Honda
1:04
haven't designed it to be the longest
1:06
slack its lowest bike possible what
1:09
they've done is they put it somewhere in
1:11
the middle so although it is relatively
1:12
long it's it's not crazy long and that
1:15
puts you in a really great position for
1:17
when you need to get the bike up over
1:18
and around the stuff it's really great
1:20
technical climbing so you can really
1:22
move the front of the bike around and
1:24
point it where you want to go and
1:26
likewise when you put downhill it's
1:28
really really good as well it's a really
1:32
lots of clearance for two point six
1:34
tires at the back you could put a 2.8
1:35
tire at the front loads and loads of mud
1:39
clearance it's really really great
1:40
design for just general British trail
1:43
riding where the bikes gonna get a bit
1:45
mucky and you don't want the back of the
1:47
bike to clog up we don't make a big
1:48
feature of price but the fact you can
1:50
get a frame and shot for 899 is insane
1:55
with complete bike starting at $15.99
1:57
its it's a brilliant first full
2:00
suspension bike really really fun really
2:03
something pieces build your skills on
2:05
but at the same time you can upgrade it
2:07
and it's not going to let you down if
2:09
you want to find out more about this
2:10
bike make sure that you pick up issue 1
2:12
1/8 of singletrack magazine or head to
