Chris and team have hit a home-run with both the Ski Bike design and performance. The customer service is 100% amazing. Be it questions about the bike or set up tips, Chris is a phone call/email away. You will get a response!
SkiByk is onto something here. I haven't seen this much attention in a snow sport in a long time. Wherever you go on your SB100, people stop and talk about it. From the lift operators, to getting gas, to a hardware store in the middle of Dallas, Tx! Everyone wants to know about these ski bikes. Style, performance, brings communities and people together.... the perfect recipe for success. Thank you SkiByk for introducing me to this sport. Get one, be expressive, SMILE!

I bought a Skybyk last season!!🤘
Chris is a great ambassador for this sport. He called me personally to ask if I needed any assistance with the assembly of the SkiByk, let me know when it shipped, gave me a ton of great advice and has me sold on this company. Plus the $$$PRICE$$$ can't be beat for this high end quality!
I bought a second SkiByk for my girlfriend!!🤘🤘
I'm 47 now and trying to ride a snowboard for half the day was brutal on my knees, ankles, and feet. I can ride all day long now and still want to ride the next day!!!
*Warning - Riding a SkiByk instantly bumps up your Cool points on any mountain. Be prepared to answer a lot of questions..This skibike is a head turner!!

I Skibike because I had chronic fatigue, Lyme disease, and fibromyalgia for many years. Finally got too tired and had too much pain to keep going. Plus I couldn’t handle ski boots anymore. My feet were screaming. Now I can SkiBike for hours with very little fatigue. I can sit during the lift lines and cruise down the blue and green runs with very little effort.
My favorite is ducking in and out of little tree runs off of a main run, or finding a good little jump to push off of. I enjoy the groomers and fresh powder.
The SkiByk SB100 does an amazing job carving through any condition - powder, groomers, crust. It stands me more upright than my old SkiBike conversion, so it’s easier on my back, neck, and shoulders too. The shocks are incredible, so no more jarring my wrists when I land a mini jump. It’s a little bit like riding on butter. My skill level went way up once I got on the SkiByk because it is so easy to control and carve. Fun is all I can say! And I can wear whatever boots make my feet happy.
New riders? Get the feel of the SkiByk by pressing down on the pedal of the direction you want to go. I find if I want to carve right, I put a little pressure and lean on that right pedal, and boom - my turn starts. It’s that simple.
This is a much bigger and heavier bike than my skibike conversion, but because it is so easy to handle down the mountain, it feels lighter and easier to ride (it’s probably those blessed shocks!) It sits well on the lift too once you get it upright.
Thanks Chris for making an amazing, affordable SkiBike!

Look, I took up mountain biking a few years ago, needed some more activity in my life. But then winters were depressing at best because I couldn't ride. I used to ski and snowboard in my youth (I'm 48 now), and finally had to get my kids exposed to snow sports (I live in Colorado, and not taking your kids skiing or snowboarding is almost blasphemy). I skied for half a season but was kind of bored, and kept getting hurt. Then I saw a ski bike. I was sold. I rode a couple shoddy homemade ski bikes, then earlier this season, discovered SkiByk's. I loved it so much, my friend and I started a rental company in Denver to rent SkiByks. It was the easiest snow sport I have ever learned, in fact, when I teach people, my main warning is that it is so easy to learn, you will get cocky quick, so be careful. I haven't been on skis since the day I rode a SkiByk, I think that says it all. Not to mention it is so much easier on my aging body. I have to mention too, as a Mountain Biker, I have to have quality in my equipment. The SkiByk is a solid and quality piece of equipment. And the customer service when ordering our personal bikes and our rental fleet was/is awesome. They stand by their product. Winter Mountain Biking? The dream.

He answered all my questions, which took about an hour. I bought a byk right after. Got the byk within a week, put it together and hit Sierra on a Monday. Best fun I ever had learning a new snow sport! If you can ride a bike and know how to work your edges, you're going to love this. The speed and control took me by surprise, but some things I didn't expect: I wasn't tired after, my legs weren't cramping, getting on and off the lift was easy, and moving the byk around on the flats and in lift lines is a breeze. I went up to Sierra two weeks later on a Saturday and it was packed! I had so much control on the byk though that I was weaving in between skiers and snowboarders with ease. Got asked a lot of questions, but most people are pretty enthusiastic about it. Going out again this weekend, curious to see how it handles in better snow and took some suggestions from Chris about adjusting the shocks and settings. I know I left a bunch of things out, I'll write another review after this weekend. I really can't say enough about it. I'm having a great time on the slopes this year.

Snowboarding, I felt confident on the slopes within a few runs. The Skibyk is nimble and dynamic while still offering a predictable feeling of stability. Without the need to strap in and out of skis or snowboard loading and unloading on the lifts, Ski Bike is super easy. I find that more of my time is spent carving the beautiful snow and less of my time is wasted messing with my gear.
Chris, one of the owners of the company was exceptionally helpful with everything from the interest in demo-ing a Skibyke, to help with assembly, to helping me find the best places to ride. I have honestly never received the type of attention and care that I got in my dealings with Skibyke at any other company. I judge that if more people did business like Chris, their businesses would be thriving. Skibyke provides a top notch product at a very reasonable price. As an added bonus, it’s backed by five star customer service. I highly recommend picking up a Skibyk as soon as possible.

The quality is unbeatable. I can personally guarantee you won’t find a better priced bike that has this great of quality. The frame down to all the individual parts are built to a high standard and no detail was left behind. The SkiByk has full suspension that can be fully customized to your preference. The handle bar can be set at different heights to accommodate different sized people. The paint job of all the parts really makes this bike stand out! The skis are perfect for deep powder and carve through the snow like a hot knife on butter, making biking in the snow amazing. I personally work in the ski industry and can say Ski Biking is becoming the next big thing. The owner is amazing at customer service and will answer any and all questions you have.

I have been admiring Skibyk Skibikes from afar on FB, thinking that they looked very promising and have been itching to ride one. I got my chance today when Rob Ody hired me for an all-day skibike lesson at Kirkwood and showed up with his brand new SkiByk.
I must say I am very impressed with the build quality of this rig. My expectations of foreign-made knock offs is usually very low, but this bike exceeded those expectations. The geometry and design is modeled very VERY closely to my Lenz Recon so it had a similar feel. My Lenz Sport definitely feels better, and is in fact better in every way that is measurable, but I don't think this bike was meant to be direct competition for the Lenz. I think it was meant to be a solid, low cost, upgradeable, entry level bike - and it is definitely that.
The skis have a very tight sidecut radius which makes them very easy to turn at low speeds - perfect for beginning riders. I found myself wishing that the skis were 20% less stiff, but overall they felt perfectly adequate for an offering in this price range. The only real negative about this bike was the extremely uncomfortable saddle. After one run, I pulled it off and replaced it with one of the C9 Comfort saddles that I run on all my bikes. Rob was eternally grateful for that life-changing upgrade.
The skibike forums have been clamoring for a sub $1000 full suspension skibike with legit performance. Hats off to Chris Schuler for making that dream a reality. My 17 years in the skibike business cause me to predict that this will be the best selling skibike of all time, and will be hugely instrumental in growing this sport - which is great news for every manufacturer in the long run.

Lastly on day one, I was going down the intermediate runs having a blast. I would highly recommend if your curious - try it.

I emailed Chris, the owner, and immediately he asked me to call him. We spent at least 20 minutes on the phone talking about the bike and his company. The price being under 1k is perfect. I was invited to meet Chris and his crew prior to the demo day at Park City. I took to the ski immediately with the instruction of Chris and his crew. I took a brand new ski bike home with me that day. Two days later I rode at Sundance and my experience was even better than my first day, I felt like the bike was one with my body now.

After a tibia-fibula break with tibial plateau fracture from a motorcycle accident, my knee wasn’t able to handle vibration. I used to snowboard and I have tried it since then, but my knee couldn’t handle the stress to allow me to shred the way I want. I liked to point my snowboard down the mountain and just let it go. I can do the speed now but I can’t handle the stress of the stop.
The first time I tried the SkiByk, I found it pretty easy to apply my snowboarding skills to ski biking. Ski biking allows me also apply my mountain biking skills as I want to start jumping it more in the terrain parks.

You can’t beat the price for the quality and build of this bike!
I tried the SB100 at a demo for two runs down the bunny slope. I bought one soon after. Since then, I have been on my bike only two times since I got in late in the season but I have gotten pretty comfortable with the setup in that time!

Try subtle turns with the handlebars to initiate the movement and then follow through with your body. Practice these small movements to see how much effect it has on the bike’s direction and build confidence . Then practice sudden big moves to get confidence in being able to change direction or stop quickly, but pay attention to keeping your movements from being bigger than intended. Let yourself get speed on long open stretches and practice stopping. You will need this skill once you hit steeper terrain. Enjoy and see you guys on the slopes!

The choice for the SB100 was very easy after doing some demo rides on other products. For some reason the others almost feel like you have to work on input to get the bike to respond. Riding the SB100 seems effortless, balanced and fast. Absolutely love the product!

Take it easy and make some green runs to get the technique down. Learn how to drift and steer with your legs. If you do snow skiing and ride motorcycles any, it should be a very natural and easy transition. Most of all, HAVE FUN & ENJOY!!!!

I have bad knees and couldn’t ski or snowboard that well. My spouse is an avid skier and saw a ski bike on one of her runs and told me about it. I immediately started researching ski bikes and bought a Geary Storm.

The design of the bike made it easier to handle at faster speeds, and I felt in control at all times.

The owners of skibyk actually ride they don't just sit back in the scene. Alfie and Chris both ride and stand behind their product something isn't right with something they take care of it the product is awesome it's sturdy nobody is broken ski bike frame. The warranty is great on ski bike. If you ever have questions about ski bike the owners are right there for you. I used to ski did I snowboarded, met a guy on the Mountain and I was asking him questions about it he asked me do you want to try it, I said yeah sure. Ever since that day I couldn't wait to get mine. Ski bike just isn't a great product and the owners aren't just great people, but they're people that will ride with you and the other people that ride are awesome give you tips help you if something is a little out of adjustment on your bike somebody always has a tool if needed. I'll tell you if you don't try it you're missing out. I bought two sb-200 and now I have to customize sb200 one of a kind. The owners and the Riders are awesome great people. And if you go to their website they have lots of accessories apparel.

Ski bike is so easy to ride it doesn't take weeks and months or even years to learn how to do it.
If you can ride a bike you can ride a ski bike. You're a little leery about this new sport rent a ski bike check it out. So what I would suggest when you rent a ski bike find somebody in the ski bike group to give you some pointers you'll be surprised to how easy this is and how much fun you'll have. We have a ski bike group on Facebook Instagram we have little ski bike rallies but we all get together and join up and ride together. There's a ski bike Association. Don't be surprised if you don't see ski bikes in the Winter Olympics coming soon. Ski Bike BMX, ski bike freestyle, ski bike fun for the whole family.
If you decide to purchase your ski bike tell them Rob Verdina sent you.

The learning curve is very steep - half a day of learning to turn/stop and gain confidence. It’s a lot easier to learn than you think. For first timers, definitely pick a day with some powder (but not too much) to learn. It’s so much easier to control the bike when there is snow. Avoid learning on ice/packed powder and crowded days! Also, the turning/stopping process is more about shifting your weight, pushing on pedals and pulling up/down on the handle bars than it is about “turning” the bars. Finally, be ready to answer a LOT of questions from skiers/snowboarders in the lift lines! (Is that fun? Is it hard? How much do they cost?)

Soft backcountry and deeper snow is extremely fun to ride fast in. It allows you to really open your carving and control the bike in totally new ways. Just be sure to lean back or you’ll find yourself over the bars with a face full of powder. It’s a blast.
My favorite thing about the SkiByk is all the questions and looks I get on the mountain. Some folks even chase me just to watch the concept of a bike on skis. I get to extend my mountain bike season to year round and I know it makes me a better rider all-around.

Why SkiBiking?
SkiBiking is just so much fun! I literally have a smile on my face every time I ride. It mimics riding my dirt bike or mountain bike so I find my self looking at and attacking the mountain in a whole new way. I still Snowboard a lot but it’s nice to change it up with the bike and ride trails or lines that I normally might not. Also I find it very rewarding to learn and continue to improve at a sport that I picked up in my mid 40’s. That being said riding these bikes really doesn’t put strain on my aging knees and ankles so I can enjoy the Mountain all day.
Advice to new riders:
Take it slow at first and get used to some basic edge control- skidding turns and skidding to a stop.
The learning curve is really fast so you’ll be done with the bunny hill and heading for higher lifts right away.
Also be ready to get a lot of attention and questions from people on the mountain.
The SkiBiking community is so friendly as soon as you see another bike on the hill you’ll instantly have a new riding buddy.
