Hey, thanks

I’d go with Canyon Grail. Sure it may not offer electronic shifting, but it’s got built in storage, proprietary bags and legit fenders. I’d take those over electronic shifting

The other Utah based brand Ari (formerly Fezzari) shafer is worth a look at this price point, more versatile but not axs at entry level though. Nice review as always

I came very close to buying the Shafer. It gets great reviews.

Hi David.. I really enjoy your content and perspective on bicycles. Could you please answer this question.. or even do a video on it.. What is the most durable “bomb-proof”, “apocalypse survival” bicycle?? From frame to tires, wheels and components and ultimately ride ability throughout every possible terrain!! I believe this is a much needed and possibly very entertaining bit of info we’d appreciate!
@squngy04 ай бұрын
I'd say Lauf Siegla is better value, especially if you look at the rigid version.

Got a 20% discount on my Scott Addict Gravel … much of the same geometry wise. But with mounts for mudgards 😊👍 and i swopped the 45mm tires for 38mm gravel king ss 😂

I know sometimes it’s hard to get the bikes for the videos but if possible try get a look at Radon Vaillant 8.0, 9.0 or even 10.0. Race bike with ultegra di2, carbon everything except the wheels for 3500€ and it looks amazing. And their Vaillant 10.0 has Mavic Cosmic SL 45 Sram Force AXS. If you really wanna make a list of bike brands that offer good value they are really good.

Hi David, how do you compare Ventum GS1 and new Canyon Grail regarding comfort, stiffness and acceleration?
@TheChancerdog14 ай бұрын
Personally find my LBS priceless and would get a Propel most likely or another Warbird. All the integrated stuff to work on and proprietary stuff on bikes today puts me off direct to consumer

The weak point is the Apex, for 3000 you get higher level Group set for the money by other direct seller

I bought my GS1 because it didnt have all the frame mounts. I wanted a high performance aero-ish gravel racing frame. Im not putting bags all over it. This is aimed at racers first.

Well this version with apex is at 3k, not really that best value, Scott addict gravel with rival is selling at 3300, rose backroad ff, also with rival axs at 3500, Orbea terra around the same values.
@bernardo92024 ай бұрын
you need to pay 4k for that bike with the rival axs option. Sram apex should be sould at 2k price point alluminium gravel bike or something like that
