Spoke Video Review: Yeti SB66

Posted by Caleb Smith on Wednesday August 17 2011

Issue 43 of Spoke features a full review of the new Yeti SB66. Right here you can check out the SB66 in action being ridden by Hadley Boyce on Bee Line at Wellington’s Wainui Trail Park, New Zealand. Read Mark Dangerfield’s full review in issue 43 out September.

 

Is it just me or is the SB66 silhouette pretty damn striking?

 

Haven't we seen that before? Yup, an identical tapered head tube to the 575 Spoke just tested, and it's just as cool.

 

Cool internal cable routing on the rear stays.

 

... and more cool internal cable routing.

 

Post mounts out the back. How's that for clean lines?

 

Race bred, you better believe it. Remember both Blenki and Justin Leov spent formative time on the Yeti programme.

        Hi Steveo, I reviewed the bike but Hadley rode it in the vid. It was a medium.

        I’m 177cm, but I think Hadley is a little shorter than me. I was quite happy riding the medium with a 70mm stem, but think I could also ride a large reasonably comfortably too with a shorter stem.

        Yeti suggests a medium if you’re 171 -180cm and a large for 180 – 191cm.
