good day guys,

Im in the market for a new bike

This is the 3 bikes in my list,

which of them do you think is better in terms of performance

the arktos is the cheapest, while the sb150 is the most expensive.

I only ride on a normal phase, not fast.

ill use it for enduro, natural trails.

the descending part is the most important quality for me, which is the most stable and comfortable to descend among these?

the yeti would cost around $3500
the arktos is around $2400
the firebird is packaged with frame and crank around $3900, estimates the frame would be more or less $2750

Thanks!!

The yeti is probably the best bike in there. The Firebird doesn't hold a water bottle, which is a deal breaker for me.

Check out the Devinci Spartan 29" too. Best traits of all those.

I have bought a firebird 29 X0 pro, after quite a bit of testing last year. I can nothing but utterly recommned it- in every aspect the bike delivers big time. Ah. Yes. Water bottle holder. That looks like a big dealbreaker for some. Never used a waterbottle on the frame since my xc times 20 years ago, so, I am lucky enough I dont need to skip on one of the finest enduro bikes out there.

Two decent bikes and one shit one.

Buy the Yeti if you want to be able to run a waterbottle.

Buy the Yeti if you want to be able to run a waterbottle. Buy the Pivot if you want to be constantly asked if you had considered the Yeti.
