Our New Mountain Bike Buyer’s Guide

from Bikes & Big Ideas

Our new Mountain Bike Buyer’s Guide is live, and while it takes some cues from our Winter Buyer’s Guide — the eleventh edition of which is in the works right now — it’s very much its own beast. So we sat down to talk about what’s in the Guide, how it’s structured, and why; how the mountain bike market has evolved; the return of ‘All-Mountain’ as a class of bikes; and a whole lot more.RELATED LINKS:Blister Mountain Bike Buyer’s GuideGet Our Free Newsletter & Gear GiveawaysBLISTER+ Get Yourself CoveredTOPICS & TIMES:The new MTB Buyer’s Guide & how it’s structured (1:48)What makes our Buyer’s Guide different (5:35)Reviewing bikes now vs. a decade ago (9:06)Zack’s worst bike purchase (15:23)Direct-to-consumer models & the evolution of bike sales (16:32)Classifying bikes & the return of ‘All-Mountain’ as a category (23:26)Which All-Mountain bike would we each buy?
