So I’m gonna snow check a new turbo. Can’t decide on a 154 or 165 expert or free ride. I’m 5’11” 190 lbs. I like tree riding but I also like climbing with the best of them. Any suggestions. I’ve been renting a 2020 165 turbo and I like it but what’s the 154 like? Help ! :confused:

When it’s deep the 154 is less than ideal. If your a good rider you’ll get around fine but I find the 165 is the best weapon out there for all riding. Not a fan of the free ride either. I like the expert suspension calibration, the free ride is too stiff. and you don’t get the adjustable limiter or short bars.

154 is way more fun. Depends on if you are in 2-3 fresh all the time. Rough trails and FreeRide shocks are mint!!

As someone who has sold them buy the 165. Way more demand when you sell it and the right track for most conditions
