That makes the new Donut the first mountain bike in history that's not as slack as its predecessor, marking a bold new leap forward in geometry technology that we're calling Turn Helper Concept. Okay, so we fell a little behind schedule and the new Donut is about a year late, give or take another twelve months and a couple of " spy shots," but have you seen the latest enduro bikes? The Donut might be overdue, and it might have even spawned some poor imitations, but it's still a decade ahead of everything else on the market, regardless of where they hide their cables or how high the pivots get.Īnd to be fair, at the end of the first video we did say that the next episode wouldn't be out until 2030, so we're still ahead of schedule in my books.Ĭhris Cocalis assembling the first Donut while admiring the best headtube badge in the business.Īfter nearly twenty minutes of intense discussions that saw our eyes go bloodshot and a dangerous amount of Fuego Takis eaten, we finally settled on making the head angle 2 degrees steeper. That was the easy part, though, with us spending the next two years trying to decide if we should paint the frame Obsidian Black, Sable Black, or maybe even get really wild and go with Onyx Black.

I'm not joking it took only fifteen or twenty minutes to settle on some new numbers that made sense.

While other brands were drilling holes in headsets and throwing their entire development budget at e-bikes, we were working hard to perfect the new Donut's geometry, not exactly an overnight process. Or at least it feels that way, but smashing through paradigms doesn't happen overnight, people. If it feels like it's been five years since the first Donut debuted, that's because time has been moving slower since 2020. You can then simply exit the tower afterwards and defeat the boss again to farm cash.The new Donut employs our proprietary Turn Helper Concept, a revolutionary geometry technology that integrates a forward-thinking approach guaranteed to deliver a paradigm-shifting handling experience for the modern mountain biker in the modern world. Defeating the first boss of the tower (Lv.70 Thought Body Saejima) easily earns you about 5,000,000 Yen. Note that the Final Millennium Tower is also the best place to farm money during the post-game stages. Earn enough levels first from the Sotenbori Arena or by hunting Infested Vagabond in Kamurocho Sewer (Dungeon) before taking on the Final Millennium Tower. Note that it is recommended to be at least Lv.75 before attempting this as the tower features very powerful enemies and bosses.

Post-Game Leveling Final Millennium TowerĪfter clearing the main story, it is recommended to farm EXP at the Final Millennium. Another good area to level up fast is at the Kamurocho Sewer (Dungeon) where Infested Vagabond can be found. Mid to Late Game Leveling Sotenbori Arena and Kamurocho Sewer (Dungeon)Īfter clearing Chapter 12, the Sotenbori Arena will be accessible and lets you fight strong enemies to quickly earn EXP for fast leveling. You can fight the Bat Men that regularly appear at the Korean Town park to accumulate a good amount of EXP in a short period. The Korean Town is a good spot to farm enemies for EXP since it is conveniently located near Snack Town and Joban Street area, allowing you to stop and heal quickly if you need to.
