Just picked up a SB75 sick bike. Yet another great bike from Yeti. It will certainly go where my Yeti ASX has never made it to.

I have one of these and it's probably the best bike I've ever ridden, period. A shame there's no "market" for them. I do wonder what the 27.5" version of this bike will be like...since Yeti needs to replace it with something!

2.5" tires. And is that a 20mm thru-axle? Feels like good'ol DH to me.

Those 2.5" DHF's aren't true to size though. More like a 2.35". Still quite a burly build!

The new 36 works with a 20mm or a 15mm axle, there are spacers that come with the fork. Graves has a 15mm axle with the spacers.

It's hard to believe the 66 has been discontinued. Yeti would do well to bring it back after Graves takes the overall.

and do what, store those bikes for a long time? Yeti has been clear in stating that they wanted to keep the bike but 26" is simply not selling compared to 650b or 29". No orders from their distributors etc. The few folks buying up left-over 66b's are not enough to support their business.

If they put ANY imagination in to marketing it, 26 would sell just fine. So funny (and ironic) how they push all that technical crap about wheel size (any wheel size)... yet despite all the benefits, a 26er still comes out on top (well, at least this time, haha).

That's so true. We've heard plenty about the benefits of larger wheels. How often do we see 26" marketed for its better agility, acceleration, lighter weight..... I was excited about 27.5 when it was another option. Too bad it's looking like we are loosing an option, not gaining one.
