Expirience with the Polygon Siskiu T8

Ludwig Döhl You wont be able to hide that smile on your face when riding the Polygon Fully on demanding trails. With its balanced handling, riding the Polygon Fully feels really intuitive. The seating position can be described neither as sporty nor as comfortable. It has a moderate character. For trail lovers, one point dominates: the All Mountain of Polygon scores in the decent with an extremely good geometry, a high-quality suspension and grippy tires. With 5 years the warranty is another neat feature.
