The Good Deals Thread

[trener1]

Back to thinking about the Rocky Mountain instinct A30, https://bikes.com/products/instinct-a30-22-23?variant=43475024281835
Seems like a good price, but I am wondering if the fork and shock are any good, what do you guys think?

Sub $3k? Just buy it. This market isn't forever. You will always be able to get your money back when it normalizes.

I'm going to bed in hopes it's gone tomorrow, might not have the will power in the morning...

The fork alone is worth half that price of the entire bike.

Yeah, you cannot build the bike for anywhere near this price. If I hadn't pulled the trigger on the Mythique VRX, I would have had to bite on this one.

As a FYI, for those that were looking at that Costco deal but didn't pull the trigger, Intense has some up on their own website as Refurbished at $3200 but $800 off until 12/31, so $2400. no too shabby for a Carbon bike with a warranty.

Refurbished is probably just bikes returned to Costco...

I should also note that the price is for the Trail bike I think the XC bike is $300 cheaper

Nice find. The se5s (more aggressive) are also the same price, but in 29x2.6 vs these at 2.4.

I just ordered 2 of them. Got extra 10% off with code and free shipping to my house. $76.77 OTD for both with tax. Sweet deal and I always like to break away from the norm and try something that's not Maxxis. BTW, I still love the American Classics on my ebike.

Just bought the same to mate with two other bikes which I love the XR4s in the rear wheel. Been a bit embarrassed showing up to the trails with mismatched rubbers. Been using Schwalbe and Maxxis in front.

Are you guys getting the 4s or the 5s?

Se5, I didn't like the 4s in the front. 4s remind me of Schwalbe Nobby Nics and the SE5 seem to have similar tread patterns to Minions. Imo, se5 2.6 front and se4/XR4s 2.4 rears are a nice combo

Looks like they restocked the mythique vrs in different color. Amazing deal. Not sure if only the color is different or components as well.
