Last week Ollie was at the national hillclimb championships, where he not only took part in the race, but also spied out some of the best weight weenie bike tech around! Alex and Ollie delve into the details of it, as well as looking at the power data of Andrew Feather's monster winning time!

Thanks to Ollie for making the trip up for us to have this insight from the tech and aero gurus!! Amazing to see such an array of bikes in the top 10 of both the male and female field...especially Illi, not only Everest Holder, British Champ but also the Sa Calobra QOM holder this week!! Congrats to you guys of course at Team Andy! I've heard this 8wkg bounced around a lot over the last few days though. Bell did somewhere in the region of 7.5wkg and I did bang on 7.5 until the wheels came off with 300m to go but we were level pegging up until that point with the Featherweight, small plug to my analysis video on my channel :)

Ditch the bar tape and front derailleur, flat bar, bare carbon, removing most of the rear cassette, ceramic bearings (only for the 1 ride), dyneema spokes, absolute minimum spokes on front wheel, polyurethane tubes, lots of extra spoke holes drilled, shorten the chain down to the minimum that you can use with gearing, very worn tyres (or at least front tyre), remove bottle cages and bolts, no power meter, remove any excess length on the seat stem, lightweight hubs etc. Maybe 650c rather than 700c wheels. Short lightweight socks or potentially ditch them for the 5 minute ride, absolutely lightest kit that you can find, lightweight helmet, no hydration for a while before the race.

@truthseeker8483 Жыл бұрын

Nice ideas...I made a 1X road bike out of my 25 year old steel framed bike...fitted titanium skewers /bolts, removed mudguard mounts..some drillium...used lightest parts I can afford...(..not much.)...and result? 12kg 😄😄😄

@ianpattison2323 Жыл бұрын

I think one of the pleasures of bikes is their simplicity and ability to personalise. Unfortunately over the past few years there has been an increase complexity and decrease in the ability to customise. (also a ridiculous increase in associated cost). There is something very pure about trying to cycle up a hill/mountain as fast as you can and likewise working on your own bike to achieve that. I know you showed some more exotic bikes but it is possible to get a very light bike at a relatively low cost at least compared to the current price of higher end road bikes. I hope events like these become more and more popular and perhaps manufacturers will respond by providing some greater choice than is currently the case. Thank you for a great video.

Until a few weeks ago, my To Do List as a beginner (2 years) cyclist from Belgium was limited to bikepacking trips and going up famous mountains (crossed the Mont Ventoux, Grand Ballon and the Super Planche des Belles Filles out that list this summer)... Taking part to a HC race is now added to that list. The mood there seems so fun! I was so disappointed there isn't apparently any in Belgium despite excellent candidates like La Redoute... I guess a trip to UK is coming. Thanks for the great vids as always !

Affiliation is only £30 a year and non-U.K. clubs are welcome so you can just ask your home club in Belgium to affiliate and wear your jersey with pride in U.K. time trials 😊

I was there with my normal bike, but I did try and strip it down, so, bottle cages, front mech, big ring come off and for the last day of the season also the bar tape. Unfortunately, my chain dropped before the last ramp (maybe need to invest in a narrow wide ring), so race ruined after training from early summer! See you on the struggle next year.
