Video: Joey Schusler's Self Filmed High Alpine Adventure on Yeti's New ARC Hardtail

Aug 4, 2020
by Sarah Moore  


bigquotesThe world thought it already knew the ARC.

And while that ARC may conjure nostalgia for between the tape triumph, this ARC is different. This ARC pleads for you to take it deep into the backcountry and stokes you out with hoot’s and holler’s worthy of its pedigreed ancestry.

This ARC has history to live up and new history to make. And it’s already impatient.—Yeti Cycles

 Looked more like trail riding than downcountry, not quite XC and not quite Enduro, definitely not big mountain or all mountain. So many names, not sure what is what just now. Nice video too.

 And will be used by anti-mountain bikers as "proof" of how mountain bikers treat trails to elected officials. Ugh...

 Regardless of Yeti bikes being considered bikes built for dentists, the bikes they make look rad! The content that Joey Schusler produces for them makes me want to ride despite not owning a Yeti and to me, that is epic.

 Bravo. What a killer edit and killer riding. Well done Mr. Schusler. I'm stoked to see more companies taking hardtails seriously. This looks like a blast to ride.

 I love hardtail edits I love skandi flicks I love single track shreds and I now have the music on my playlist, nice one.

 Why is there video of him inflating a tube? To make the point that this bike gets flats or that the rims won't hold sealant? Odd.
  • 1 0
 Haha my first thought when I saw him tubing up was, “I wonder how many more pinch flats and rim strikes I’d get riding a hard tail?”

 @GPP2117: Technically, it was the front tire. That SID fork is probably to blame Wink

 Gotta be a Maxxis Agressor needing a tube.

 So I'm not the only one flatting Agressors way too often?

 That is some serious commitment to go out for a ride with a RED camera on your own. Fair play, super sick edit and always love seeing self filmed stuff!

 So, according to the video the bike is for mellow, flowy terrain only?

 Yes, and according to another ad, viagra is only for sitting in a tub. How dense are you?

 @miker27: not sure if you are talking about breast cancer, since that's what I found when trying to understand 'how dense are you'? If you are, then probably I am not too dense. Other then that, I can't really tell, since I do know my weight, but not my volume, so no calculations to be made.
How dense are you? In 'everybody but us'-units, thanks.

 Loosen your grip. It should be your feet/ankles crying out, not your hands.

 Naa, downcounty is the next best thing. It fits between downcountry and downcountry plus. Or was it between crosscountry and downcountry. Maybe sidecountry or backcountry.

 For a dentist, I was surprised not to see him brush his teeth after that sugary apple at 0:56.
