It’s great to see all the key areas covered with you 10 points… the key factor being cost & gain lots of experience using what ever it is you want to use. Love the BikingMan Fork sticker Axel :-)

What is your advise about wheel width for ultra distance, mainly on road but sometimes on soft gravel road ? I’m looking for good carbon wheels for ultra, 700c, hand made by a local shop. Road first and 650 after for more gravel trip...

Steel frames are between Alu and carbon / titanium? Not sure I would I agree!

@MaximSidorenko 4 жыл бұрын

Alu frame more comfortable than carbon???

I m not agree with this point too :) Very not.

@AxelCarionexplorer 3 жыл бұрын

@@thomasarrabito1674 this is based on 500 hours of riding non stop on carbon frame and 1000 hours of riding 6 days a week on aluminium frames. Of course, it can vary from one bike brand to another but it gives an overall idea to the public on how the fiber works.

I'm guessing tubeless all the way?

@AxelCarionexplorer 4 жыл бұрын

That would be the ideal choice if you go above 30mm tires. I'm riding with tubes when it's 100% tarmac roads as I own a pair of wheels that are not tubeless ready. For the rest, I'm always riding tubeless

@crocodiledo7874 3 жыл бұрын

interessant , mais le propos perd en credibilité lorsqu'il assimile cadre acier et alu pour de la longue distance ... idem pour la transmission electrique lors d'une course d'endurance sur plusieurs jours ...

@AxelCarionexplorer 3 жыл бұрын

J'utilise une transmission électrique avec laquelle j'ai fait 11000km en 49 jours (soit 500 heures de bike) dans des conditions extrêmes et des référentiels de test hors norme. Sur le format BikingMan, l'électrique ne pose aucun problème, comme le mécanique, c'est un choix accessible à chacun. Côté cadre acier et alu, j'ai fait environ 1000 heures sur de l'alu et la fibre "travaille" mieux que du carbone en règle générale mais il y a des exceptions. Idem pour l'acier mais je suis à l'écoute de tes remarques pour alimenter la discussion.

@crocodiledo7874 3 жыл бұрын

@@AxelCarionexplorer je ne remets pas en cause l'efficacité d'une transmission electrique , cela fait en effet quelques années qu'elles ont fait leur preuve ... mais en cas de pepin la transmission à "cables" me parait plus bidouillable en cas de soucis en pleine pampa ! pour les cadres alu par contre c'est le coté très tape-cul qui me pose question , surtout sur des seances d'au moins 10h/jour sur plusieurs jours , la repetition des chocs peut etre plus problematique il me semble ! quoi qu'il en soit bravo pour l'orga de tels events , le futur du vélo est là , j'en suis convaincu !

Croco Diledo câble électrique sectionné après un voyage en soute chahuté = soudé dans un marché colombien et c’est reparti. De nouveau je peux partager l’analyse sur des expéditions de plusieurs semaines (mois) pour l électrique. Sur des épreuves courtes Bikingman, aucun problème pour l’électrique. Pour l’alu la matière travaille beaucoup une fois le vélo chargé (sacs et poids), par expérience plus que le carbone qui reste très rigide et moins confortable sur les expéditions. Voir par exemple les marques qui proposent des randonneuses en alu et acier et titane plutôt que carbone.

@@BikingMan so you don't work you just ride your bike all day lol you living on the flats. It's become a problem with some bikes going down mountain side an on gravel bikes. 11000 usa bikes were recalled over this problem won't say which bike company but carbon can have its weaknesses it has its strengths to but carbon can have air pockets in its making which can cause its weaknesses. Carbon can be strong one way but and be weak when stressed another way. So you need a new bike 800000 km is 40 years of driving in most cars lol 😂 🤣
