Yelli Screamy – The Hardtail that Started the Party
The legend lives on. The Yelli Screamy was the first hardtail to prove that 29ers could be fun, fast, and a little unhinged. Sporty and aggressive, it climbs like a rocket and descends like it’s got something to prove. Slice and dice singletrack. Rail pump tracks and jump lines. Load it up for adventure or just chase your buddies uphill and leave them behind on the way down. Do whatever you want on the Yelli Screamy—just don’t tell it it’s a hardtail.

Love this frame. Looks great. Built it up into a real fun bike to pedal
Hey Richard,
Love hearing that! Stoked to know it’s hitting the fun factor perfectly. Nothing better than a frame that pedals as good as it looks. Thanks for sharing your experience. Cheers!
Just getting back into riding after a looong time off and wanted the simplicity of a hardtail. Picked the Yelli Screamy and so far, so good. Lance and Michelle were great to deal with; the service was personal and responsive. Went on a 3-hour ride yesterday and had a blast. Excited to be part of the Canfield family and back on a bike!
Hey WW,
So good to hear that! The Yelli’s such a fun way to get back into riding — simple, fast, and just pure good times on the trail. Glad Lance and Michelle got you dialed in. Stoked to have you in the Canfield family and back out shredding again!
I admit that I waited way too long to pull the trigger on this beauty. Canfield has always been one of my favorite bike companies and they always turn out big at Fruita Fat Tire Festival. Lance loves for riders to test out all of his bikes and find what feels good for them. The Yelli Screamy absolutely rips on the trails and after just 1 lap I knew this was the one. Canfield doesn't shy away from bold colorways and custom builds which is makes ordering a bike that is personalized even more enjoyable. Lance and Michelle are wonderful people to work with and fun to hang out with at the shop. The Yelli Screamy puts a smile on my face every ride and won't be the last Canfield in my stable.
Hey John,
This put a huge smile on our faces! Thanks for such an awesome write-up! Stoked to hear the Yelli Screamy is living up to its rep as the funnest hardtail out there. Love that it clicked for you after just one lap, and that the bold colorways and custom build options made the whole experience even better. We’ll pass the kind words along to Lance and Michelle—they’ll be pumped. Here’s to plenty more laps and smiles on the Screamy!
Such a cool company. I get comments constantly on the yelliscreamy as well as the nimble 9. It’s also so reassuring to be able to talk to Lance himself and get input from him. Michelle is also so awesome and helpful. You will not regret buying a bike form this crew.
Hey CM!
Grinning from ear to ear reading this! Awesome that the YELLI SCREAMY and Nimble 9 are hitting the mark. Stoked that the bikes are turning heads and that Lance and Michelle could make your ride even better. Keep the wheels spinning and the fun rolling!
Just getting back to my roots with a hardtail—couldn’t resist the Yelli Screamy, perfect match for my home trails. Huge shoutout to Lance and the Canfield crew—awesome to work with. Highly recommend grabbing your next ride from them!
Hey Rob,
Really stoked to read this—welcome back to hardtail life! Sounds like the Yelli’s right at home on your trails. Big thanks for the kind words and the shoutout to Lance and the crew, we all appreciate it.
Have a blast out there and keep the good times rolling!
This frame rips! Super fun and dances around nicely. Built it up as a SS RIDGID, and couldn’t be happier. Canfield, the best in the game for the win again!
Hey Benjamin,
That purple Yelli looks awesome—really cool build. Love that you went rigid SS too, that’s a bold move and it totally works. Stoked it’s riding as good as it looks!
Thanks for sharing the pic and flying the Canfield flag out there.
Often the Nimble 9 gets all the love, but the Screamy is a blast to ride. Last year I rode it more than any of my FS bikes. I even built one up for my son’s first MTB, highly recommend!
Thanks for the kind words and for giving the Screamy some love! It's awesome to hear it became your go-to ride—and even cooler that your son’s first MTB is a Screamy too. That bike packs a ton of fun into a simple package, and we’re stoked it’s getting the miles it deserves. Appreciate the support!
Best Hardtail I have ridden. Lance is accurate in comparing the bike to a rally car. Fast bike in the short punchy climbs and enough bike for some gnarly and rocky downhills. Bottom bracket high enough for adequate ground clearance on hand cut singletrack, this paired with shorter cranks makes it a game changer. Well built and finish is excellent. Customer service is above and beyond before and after the sale.
Hey Kent,
Stoked the Yelli’s living up to its rally car rep and hitting all the right notes on techy trails. That short crank + BB clearance combo is a game changer.
Appreciate the kind words—and the support. Cheers!
