The only problem with these bikes for beginners on a budget, you cannot get replacement parts from Walmart They have no concept of that other than swapping the entire bike IF the part is covered under warranty If you broke it, it's yours If you have modified the bike, it's yours So you would have to remove any modifications and return it to the store in stock condition You can't bring in the "broken" part and swap it from a bike in stock Even though Ozark Trail is "Walmart's Brand" just like Visio TV's, they have no concept of replacement parts and tell you that you have to source them through a "bike shop" or "third party vendor" At least with other brands like Schwinn, you can call an 800 # and the will send you the replacement part Just something to consider

NOW THERE IS THE NEW OZARK TRAIL (M2) RIDGE DERAILER WITH CLUCH 180 FRONT DISC, KICKSTAND EXC SAME PRICE
Comment from : @brianrivasoconer5543

I had been eye balling this bike since August at Walmart They had marked it down to $279 in Sept and I picked it up yest for $200 Update - replaced the shifter and derailer (found out the original shifter was broke) Got the Microshift with clutch - super nice and easy to tune
Comment from : @markburrows1833

I just bought some silver pedals to match mine
Comment from : @sandasturner9529

Should i get the ozark trail or trek marlin 4?
Comment from : @Masonnn512

What’s better? A rockhopper sport 29 or this bike?
Comment from : @TalanisYoung

I’m a transit bus driver When the guy put this bike on the bike rack it caught my eye I’mbrConsidering picking one up 😊
Comment from : @guybehindacamera

Just got mine I have the M2 version swapped the grips with Ergon GP-1, pedals with Raceface Chester, went my 1st today with my daughter and loved it! I heavily recommend getting a seat cushion or new saddle FOR SURE mine is on rush delivery for the morning
Comment from : @TheGucciarenas

First thing I'd do is get better tires I have a hard tail with 29 2 20 tires and just recently got new tires for it Kenda sport nevegal and they are great on any berms,jumps and more
Comment from : @WilliamBeaver-tb9nt

PRetty sure I used to have a tent called the Ozark Trail lol
Comment from : @EazyDuz18

Thank you so much, bro! What an excellent review! Whenever I have friends just getting into mountain biking, who are on a budget, I recommend the Ozark Trail more than anything lol, do in large part to a few guys like you who do good solid reviews on this bike I’m just getting into gravel biking, and I ride an Ozark Trail gravel bike lol… 👍😎👍

And the best thing about it is the "OZARK TRAIL" printed on it in big, bold letters, ensuring that no one will steal it
Comment from : @ReligiousZombie

They are good bicycles but the bad thing is that they have a small pedal disc and would not move quickly
Comment from : @adrieljosafathvazquezrodri9327

I bought this bike for my gf that hasn’t rode in 15 years Didn’t want to drop a grand not knowing how much she would take it up with me I rode it myself and rode with her and it’s highly comparable to my trek marlin 6 first thing I noticed was as the breaks could use an upgrade and the shifting was slightly clunkier but for a Walmart bike it exceeded expectations I got an affordable bike that still feels like I didn’t cheap out on her
Comment from : @G1234-l7v

Do these have tubeless tires?
Comment from : @AIUnleashed-b7t

Rear rack, fenders Perfect commuter for Boston winters!
Comment from : @HullioGQ

I just picked one of these up Mine has a microshift Advent trigger and microshift acolyte deraileur with clutch a d a narrow wide chain ring!!! The frame has additional guide loops for cable rear brake cable routing I will use them since I'm going to upgrade to hydraulic brakes immediately and they come pre filled Absolutely amazing! They definitely keep improving this bike Only the brakes are bad Really bad Otherwise Buy!
Comment from : @bboennemann

This vs Schwinn Axum… Which do I get!?! Torn between them
Comment from : @zachkraeuter4820

Kent is selling the GIORDANO INTREPID on their website for $450 Do you recommend the Ozark Trail or Intrepid for a first MTB?
Comment from : @EthanWI349

@KevCentral please review the new revision of the ozark trail ridge It looks like they listened to your recommendations
Comment from : @madshadow85

So I can run a straight tube fork or do I need an adapter?
Comment from : @Tim9460-o9t

I saw this bike on clearance yesterday I should have bought it Going back today to see if it’s still there It was crazy cheap but the rear derailleur wasn’t working Probably just a cable problem
Comment from : @Tim9460-o9t

Walmart ONLY sells crap bikes Buy one, use it a while and you will see
Comment from : @maitaioe9455

Those extra upgrade provisions, amazing for the price point!
Comment from : @leedchristensen

Did you happen to get the amount of rise the handlebars have? or if the handlebars are different from the first to the second-gen?
Comment from : @tamccullough88

I finally found a small frame ridge!! It has a few surprise upgrades 180mm front rotor, microSHIFT acolyte derailer with a clutch, alignment guide on handle bars, narrow-wide chainring, and!!!! A kick stand???
Comment from : @bojames4287

I work the Bike/and Lawn&Garden areas at Walmart Our store has some Vibes, But I wish afford a Ridge someday Never Seen one in Person yest Our bike builder sucks, so im always having to do the Fine Tuning Not Complaining! I Love it!!
Comment from : @brianb6969

Yeah ok, $400 is a BUDGET PRICE when I can buy a USED CAR for that price Sure BUDGET Tool
Comment from : @vertyisprobablydead

Mine came with different parts on it I think Walmart messed up in my favor lol
Comment from : @jeffferguson69

I just picked one up, and I'm pretty excited to take it for a spin
Comment from : @nixcalder1399

Please giveaway bro 🚴🏻❤️
Comment from : @Robinxon_taro

As an update to this video if you're watching it in 2024 the bike now comes with an Advent 9 speed drivetrain which is much better than the L-Twoo in this video So it has even more bang for your $$$ now
Comment from : @rhammitt88

Ok I just bought one lol😅😅 I got the ozark trails MT bike pedals they had there too Thanks for the vid
Comment from : @trev777

❤
Comment from : @viorelgheorghe9772

Nice
Comment from : @Incaensio

How many miles have you put on the bike? Would be curious about a long term review and if wrapping, taping up certain spots on the frame would be smart?
Comment from : @Venom-kq5xz

I hope ozark will make full suspension bike soon
Comment from : @phd8296

I just saw ozark trail branded aluminum pedals Only $14 bucks
Comment from : @jamesd9955

friend picked one of these up used for 50 bucks and it has treated him well, daily ridden on trails replacement parts are MOSTLY standard and you really need to have it checked by a bike mechanic prior to riding trails (Walmart pays its standard employees to assemble bikes, in most cases) but it really is what everyone says bri bought a specialized Fuse a couple of years ago and have loved it but it was 1000 bucks and god knows most people cant afford that just to see if they like a hobby i have an inkling thought someone important criticized the company for selling mountain bikes from their stores that cant ride all those public trails they have been building, someone obviously important it is what the big box stores are good at though, undercutting traditional supply chains with economies of scale brbrthat being said, the only color they make is grey, for that it gets 2 out of 10 tacos
Comment from : @Alitlittlehedgehog

What do you think of the revision 2 of this bike? It has a clutched deralier
Comment from : @metakheadfromthe89s

What your overall viev on the bike next year get probaly salsa brBike heard there nice
Comment from : @scotthanback4530

Thanks for the video i subcribe to u
Comment from : @scotthanback4530

I wonder how this bike compares to the GT aggressor Pro which at this moment is $50 cheaper?
Comment from : @Galamoth66

Are mountain bike back tires supposed to be that close to frame? Its almost touching
Comment from : @merlinmage6012

Great video review I'm only 5'5 so the OT Vibe was the right choice for me pretty happy with it after a few short rides at Greer Ranch but an upgrade to metal pedals are a MUST
Comment from : @GaryInSoCal

If you like this bike Ozark Trail just came out with a Gravel bike and it’s amazing
Comment from : @Tightt88

can you add Ebike Conversion Kit to have pedal assist?
Comment from : @mircosusan

Just got one (275) for my kid My biggest complaint was no quick release wheels I see yours has them, I wonder if it's something they stopped doing? I'll check a couple other Walmarts Edit: Looks like the 29ers have them, not on the 275
Comment from : @JA-gx4hb

if you get one either tune it yourself or have a real bike shop do it, walmart workers are not that smart
Comment from : @viperdemonz-jenkins

What should a newer rider use to lubricate the chain, lots of conflicting information
Comment from : @FloridaNative59

I like everything, but the kind of plain, gray paint Screams budget
Comment from : @pentiuman

Pretty goodbrIt's hard to get a decent parts combination at this low price point As long as it has stainless steel spokes with brass nipples and a removable narrow wide chainringbrbrA note to all bike manufacturers stainless steel spokes with brass nipples should be mandatory at any price point to stop corrosion and allow for upgrades without wheel rebuilding being neededbrPeople don't mind spending a little bit extra if they don't have to get the wheels rebuilt which is extremely expensive and is something they normally can't do themselvesbrVery nice frame 😎🇦🇺👍
Comment from : @markjmaxwell9819

Amazing job from the house brand at Walmart OT is making amazing products, great work
Comment from : @antoniomontana1975

I want this as my first bike
Comment from : @BlixxardRC

I tried this bike at my local walmart The suspension went full squish just from me sitting on it lmao The fork is very hit or miss it seems
Comment from : @Moostery

The A5 is pos
Comment from : @terrencemccargish442

I bought this and put another $200 into it to upgrade the crankset, group set, and install hydraulic brakes
Comment from : @Prosecute-fauci

Good drive train, good frame and wheels Ok forks Pretty close to a $600 trek
Comment from : @peterbedford2610

I’m 6’ 180lbs What’s the difference in reality between the 17” and 19” frame and what would you recommend?
Comment from : @terpencar

I was trying to get into the sport and was looking at the Ozark I grabbed a Kona Mahuna on a close-out sale for $600 that had most of the upgrades I would’ve wanted to put on the Ozark However, my husband is going to get into the sport with me as well and pending other sales or a good used buy -he will probably end up with an ozark
Comment from : @MrThejunkman

398, I payed 325
Comment from : @andrewbetrosian2784

It's surprisingly pretty decent I'm impressed People forget that not everyone has money for a $5k bike, or isn't yet ready to spend more than a few hundred till they are really dedicated
Comment from : @bicyclelife7088

I bought one a couple mouths back and I’m not good at biking kinda making a small course in the woods be hide my house and yesterday I was riding and my front rim bent and I Almosg went over the handle bars going to get better rims soon, I don’t think I hit a rock but idk
Comment from : @aj255gaming

That's a entry level bike for a new rider 180mm rotors won't make a single difference That bike will never go hard enough and the rotors won't get hot enough to need them 160mm is OK especially with the bite of cable brake Jmo
Comment from : @veecox2118

I just bought one and it broke as soon as I started pedaling 🤷‍♂️
Comment from : @sloshsauce666

Got this bike and it’s absolutely trash Returned it next day
Comment from : @Highupp

Looks like I’ll be selling my Axum I’ll be honest I own a handful of Ozark trail products I’ve been very impressed with their products I’m looking forward to bringing one of these home
Comment from : @soldierboy425

Getting into mountain biking I am 268 pounds and 5'7 I seen the medium version at Wal Mart Wondering well it hold my weight well ?
Comment from : @kennyjdm4912

Thanks a bunch for this vid Really surprised to find that hidden gem in the ozark line Stopped out to local Walmart and you were spot on about quality and feel Walked out with one It had better componentry than the more expensive models beside it The 275 OT model felt and looked cheap in comparison People are paying 1000-1200 for SE big bikes…but this 29 wheelies just fine Hashtag WalmartBikeLife!
Comment from : @Robotron2084Guide

Hey great video! I wanted to ask what you would choose between the Grand Canyon 5 or this? Looking at my first bike purchase
Comment from : @hector8147

Remember when the nishiki colorado came with an NX deraileur? 400$ id like to see a better crank/chainring or a deraiuler with a clutch but outside that this bike is ready to ride
Comment from : @dylandean5043

I dont get why they dont start putting narrow wide chainrings on these-such a cheap massive difference
Comment from : @dylandean5043

If you'd have to pick between this one and the Giordano Intrepid (currently at $529 @ Giordano's Website), considering the Giordano more refined frame, Hydraulic Brakes and Thru Axle, based on frame geometry, which one would you choose? Thanks!
Comment from : @Satorikn

Just bought one! Picking it up today!
Comment from : @jonathandavis2469

Just got this for my son as a birthday present (thanks to this video!) and he took it on its maiden voyage He was back after 15 minutes saying how awesome it was (it was after 10pm) and he couldn't wait to get up tomorrow to ride it again So happy we found this video and picked the right bike for our son Thank you!
Comment from : @IMSeanK

I love your videos as an out of date grandfather they help a lot Thank you
Comment from : @thomasstevens4622

Anybody know if available only in USA? Can't seem to find it at Walmart Canada
Comment from : @robertpeters6108

Great video! This version, or the Vibe, is on my list to get next year for my all-around ride It'll be the third bike, but I want to use it for flat and cruiser paths
Comment from : @gfxman14

Comment from : @Zesmas

how do i get this in canada? XD
Comment from : @xanider5098

have you heard of the Eastern Alpaka, might be one worth checking out
Comment from : @175benj

I bought this bike yesterday and it's very well made I bought some Snafu pedals to put on it and will be building a "FrankenBike" with it in the next few months Looking forward to upgrading it and seeing how it performs
Comment from : @PudgyPastures

Picked this one up few days ago Haven't had a mountain bike, or any bike in 15 years What a thrill - rides like a dream At 62 years of age, it's so great for my overall physical and mental health, while having a blast Not even knowing if 29" was a good choice bought it anyway Overwhelming how fast this bike can gobrbrIf you are good to your body - your body will be good to you 🚴🚴‍♀️
Comment from : @BonafideToolJunkie

So the rear spacing is 135? Ugh I hope its the same as the Ardor
Comment from : @kevinstanfa8151

I want to change the brakes for hydraulic ones, which ones work for this bicycle?
Comment from : @TheJulianortega

Just picked up one that was returned to $110! A few scuffs and the dork disc broken from the chain slipping off the last gear Excited to tinker with it and get to riding
Comment from : @chriscarmack1016

Quick questions I’m 5’4 with a 5’7” armspan Would the medium fit me? I see it has a long stem that I could replace with a short one Also, could it take 275 wheels with say, 26 tires?
Comment from : @kevinstanfa8151

I went to 2 Walmarts, couldn’t find one with a large frame I am a bike noob I just wanted something decent, not looking to do the dew tour or impress anyone with a brand
