Just ordered some stickers to have on my own bikes over here in Nova Scotia. Recently went down a Save Old Bikes rabbit hole and I consumed so much of your content. Really inspired by you and I’ve learned a ton from your videos. I have never purchased any merch from any KZfaqr before now but I’m happy to support and represent. Keep it up. Cheers.

6:22:48….good job, Craig! For a guy that’s not a hardcore cyclist on the latest equipment you did great, let alone on a retro ride. Get a good rest and we look forward to your next video!

Seriously though 26” bikes are so rad and cheap to obtain locally. I’m definitely thinking of snagging one up for my next bike. So cool what you’re doing with one!

Really good time! I had a look back at my only century to date (three years ago now, and on very flat territory) and I came in at nearly 8 hours. Congratulations!

Slicks in my opinion do help with longer rides I run 27.5x2.0 vandorm cyclone tyres on my mtb bike it’s slick but it has tread in the middle like a chopper tyre for loose gravel/wet patches for grip. these tyres I run roll hilariously fast since there’s no knobbies and there quite light for a 2.0 wide tyre I was able to give e-bikes and road bikes a run for there money when I past an Uber eats e bike at 25mph on flat terrain he looked at me weirdly since I kept up. for my gearing on my mtb I run 48/38/28 and 28x11 cassette basically a touring gear since the hills at my hometown isn’t that steep I was able to put 2.0 slick 650b tires on my 10 year old limited edition specialized hard rock the 48 tooth chainring upgrade made a difference in speed also even better with the 650b rims as there my favorite wheel size for mtb when I’m not using my road bike as there lighter than the 29ers the 29s feel sluggish in my opinion compared to 700c road bike wheels and 650b mtb wheels as both are lighter than the 29s the only time i use 29ers is for rocky trails other than that 650b is my go to

Just this morning, I did 33 km on my ZiZZO Liberté folding bike with 20" wheels for a Myeloma fundraiser. It wasn't nearly as hard as I'd feared, though doing a Century like you, I'd be deceased.

@@matmerah3700 i still ride my 2009 Kona and my late dad 1992 taiwanese stainless steel mtb... 26 wheels very suitable for city ride.. You can do some sharp manouvre and never worries about bump and pothole... Thats why, for me, 26 mtb has to be reborn... It still worked as city and all around bike..

I rode 37 miles on one and felt like I’d been hit by a bus afterwards. Granted, it was mixed terrain with some decently unpleasant singletrack.

I had to laugh at the dude on the ebike, I was riding home up the last of three big hills when this guy sitting bolt upright with a phone to his ear powered past me like it was nothing. They're a game changer.

Those tyres look as if there were no tyre over a tube... I've heard about tubeless, but tyreless - that's something new 🙂 Congratulations for finishing the race!
