Raleigh makes a full suspension mountain bike called the Raleigh Kodiak 2. It features a Suntour air fork and a Rock Shox rear shock. It costs $1400 and is loaded with quality for the price range. This is an excellent entry into full suspension bicycles.
The Kodiak 2 MTB has some impressive specifications:
SR Suntour Raidon 120mm air fork
Rock Shox Monarch R 200×57 rear air shock
Kenda Havoc Sport 27.5 x 2.8 tires
I was even impressed to see that the bike came ready for internal cable routing for a dropper post. Great control and easy climbing. This bike is a winner in my book.

of all the bikes you own, which is the most expensive dude?
which one is your favorite?
I love Raleigh
I love kevcentral
This lazy guy upfront is spoiling the video and momentum, why didn’t you take the lead..!
Looks like the 5c
I love Raleigh I have one it’s a Raleigh Talus 2
I bough a 2017 Fuji Reveal 1.3, about the same price as this one and i honestly regret it, i bought my brother 2017 Release 2 and its so much better,
This bike and the Gravity have the same frame work
I love kevcentral
I’m not sold on fat tires, but I am sold on plus size tires. 2.8’s seem perfect from my perspective.
I love kevcentral 🙂
I just picked up a Kodiak 1 for $800 from a local bike shop. Did I get ripped off?
I…love…keeeeeeseeeeeeevcenteraaaaaaaaaaaallllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Xcr suntour for that much money
Actually isn’t that bad
Raleigh used to be a really bad make when I was younger I used to hide the brand name or pull all stickers off lol! They’ve come a long way that wasn’t half bad
Love your videos, keep them coming!! Do you think your XR Pro when your done fully upgrading it, will hang with this bike (value and performance) ?? I’m looking for my first mountain bike. I have been riding road bikes and dirt bikes. Thanks ahead of time!
Hi. Really appreciate your videos. Any chance you take a look at the new 2019 giant stance 27.5+ bikes. Its around 1500 .probably the same as your raleigh bike. I never saw anyone making a review on it
would you call this a good First FS bike?
I love KevCentral!
I love kevcentral

The only reason I don’t like this video is coz… You destroyed fish house.
In the UK for £1300 you can get a Boardman mountain Pro with a pike fork and gx gearing
Are these made in Nottingham?
Lets be honest, you love a raleigh… AND here’s the but! SR Suntour lower end air shock (though i have a riadon on my Saracen), 42 on a 1by is not enough and tektro low end hydraulic usually found on £350-500 hardtails. I’d have expected Rockshox 30 air (GOLD TK-LO would b nice) shock, Shimano 395 and at least a 46/11 at this price range and i’m bike shop owner (LBS)!
I’m not sure of the Dollar to GBP but i’d expect the typical Big store pricing of “Was £1149 now £899 with a POS of £250 off!”
I love kevcentral

Thats a srsuntour fork hahah
saabkyle?
