Bike Setup
Unboxing & Bike Build
Yeti Cycles builds every bike to order in our Golden, CO headquarters. We completely build and adjust everything – we even bed the brakes in and install tubeless sealant in the tires. Bikes are packaged for shipping in such a way that minimal assembly is required using tools we provide with every purchase. This step-by-step video will ensure proper re-assembly of your new bike.
Suspension Setup
We’ve already done the hard work of creating the highest performing suspension designs in the world – the easy part of getting your suspension set up for your weight and riding style, is on you. This video will guide you through setting sag and tuning damping characteristics on your Yeti with our handy bike setup calculator.
Yeti 160E Setup
After some simple assembly and suspension setup, your new 160E is almost ready to hit the trails. This video gives an overview of how the Shimano power unit and its components operate, including charging, mode changing and broad coverage of the E-Tube Project app. The 160E comes loaded with ride modes that will work for many riders. Connecting to the app is not necessary, but doing so enables riders to tailor ride modes to suit a wide variety of preferences and riding styles.
Cockpit Setup Video
Your bike isn’t yours until you’re comfortable and confident on it. In this video we’ll go over seat positioning and angle adjustment, and handlebar height and roll, and show how to get brake levers, shifter and dropper post controls in position for quick and easy access. While there are some general rules of thumb when making these adjustments, remember that it’s all comes down to personal preference.
Suspension Calculator
Proper bike setup is key to unlocking you and your bike’s full potential. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just getting started, suspension setup can be a daunting process. Our calculator is designed to give riders a head start by providing baseline air pressures and damper settings so you can hit the trail faster and start tweaking from there.
