Summary
The Polygon Siskiu trail bike family is praised for its excellent value, offering high-quality suspension and components at competitive prices. Reviews highlight its capable handling and modern geometry, making it a fun and versatile choice for trail riding. However, some models are noted for being on the heavier side and having components that may not meet the expectations of more aggressive riders.
Excellent value for money
High-quality suspension package
Modern and capable trail geometry
Versatile and fun to ride
Good component spec for the price
Some models are heavier than competitors
Component quality varies across builds
Suspension may require tuning for less aggressive riders
Internal cable rattle reported
Limited wheel size options in certain frame sizes
The T7, which we have in for review, is even better priced at just $1899.
Polygon’s Siskiu T8 is a solid reminder of how fun even low- to mid-range bikes have become.
The Siskiu N9, here, is the hardest hitting bike in the Siskiu line, with 160 or 170mm travel, and angles that have strutted right off the Enduro catwalk.
Great frame, disappointing build
Polygon's Siskiu T8 is a great choice for anyone who wants a modern do-it-all trail bike and needs to squeeze the most performance from a limited budget.Pinkbike

The Polygon Siskiu N9 29er boasts an SRAM GX drivetrain, Fox suspension, good tires, solid geometry, and a nicely manufactured 160mm travel aluminum frame for 2800 USD.

Add this well-outfitted and sharp-handling 29er to your short list of affordable trail bikes.
Lively acceleration and climbing
Precise handling and cornering
Excellent value
No room for a water bottle
Not plush in rough terrain
No size small with 29-inch wheels

Yes, the Polygon Siskiu D5 frame is top-notch but the parts spec is lacking. If it was £750 it'd be a steal but it's outclassed by other £1k full sussers.
Super sleek frame design.
No rebound adjustment on shock.

Polygon's Siskiu T8 is a fun example of a lower-cost trail bike that's ready to rip

Watch the full video review! What am I looking at here? This is a thoroughly modern trail bike, made affordable. You can grab the Siskiu with either 29″ or 27.5″ wheels, with 140mm or 150mm respectively, though depending on your frame size you might only have one option. In a size small, it’s 27.5” only, sorry shorties. In …
Sensational pricing.
All the mod cons for proper trail riding.
Sharp looker!
Not tubeless ready.
Slack seat angle.

It’s almost 2018 and we’re still no closer to settling on one wheel size. Don’t expect that to change any time soon, but what you can expect is new options around every corner. Joining a number of manufacturers who have already offered different wheel sizes for the same model, Polygon is introducing the new Siskiu …
