You need a new mat! Thanks for the workout tips

Y-a-t-il quelqu'un qui pourrait m'aider à m'envoyer une vélo de course s'il vous plaît ???

Depends on where you're going to be riding... If you have an mtb trail and are ready to get dirty, get an mtb. If you want to go long range on plain roads, get this.

You’d have to ask yourself , what do you gain in experience by having this bike over the emonda ? Emonda is already a wonderful bike

🗣️ BUY!!! Fantastic bikes

Buy

What tire n tire size?

That’s what you get for being cheap. Should I always go to official site if you don’t want garbage😮😢

FIZIK VENTO OMNA WIDE SAVED MY FEET!

Any thoughts on sizing? I’m looking at a 58cm Ibis as a 6’5 who prefers a shorter reach. Currently riding a 60cm Trek that’s felt alright but could go smaller depending on the fit.

This hidupz tote is beautifully colored, very sturdy and the perfect size. Not too small, not too big.

I was victimized by a seller on Amazon. I put it on the bike before discovering it was fake, so no return. Bottom line: only buy chains from your LBS! Probably other replacement items too. Online sellers can't be trusted. Amazon is just ebay now.

Please I need one like yours

Appreciate the review - how does it handle on rock gardens. And also on technical descents ?

Did you use an SPD cleat spacer to get the cleat 0.25-1mm below the tread or just the cleat by itself?

only if one on a gravel bike isn’t 250lb to a mere 150lb one on a road bike 😂

I sold my 2022 Allez Sprint Comp that I got half off because a 2015 Cervelo is wayyyyyy more comfortable to ride and less expensive to maintain.

They look like chains. No closeups show the differences. I'd probably use them anyway especially if I had to pay to return them. Just don't buy from that seller again and leave a poor rating. Shimano changes vendors from time to time too, and I have purchased Shimano products from dealers, " Dura-Ace wheels," that were total garbage and had to be sent back.

I really think this could have been a way more useful video if you actually showed a close up all the issues you are describing so others know EXACTLY what to look for AND if you showed us a compare to your other chain your said. You said the plates themselves were different? How? Could have been a useful video, but wasnt done very well. Some tips, but coyld have easily been A LOT better with some close ups.

I have one pair of bibs and my GUT! 😅 It betrays me and falls out and over the bib line. So embarrassing...😂 Good looking apparel.

The canyon, cause I have the Emonda already.💪🏼👍🏼

I’ve tried my hand at just about everything from hi modulous carbon to titanium frames, 99% of people don’t need it. Always remember steel is real, 105 is for the people and entry level wheels all year round. 💯 🫡

Great vid!! I'm in Livermore, CA. Can you provide the Monday route you rode with Peter as well?

There are times one’s blood type will determine their diet. For example I’m O-Positive so I have no problem digesting meat which I need because my body craves beef . Which leaves me with a high protein diet for my cycling regiment.

Definitely like this style of video bro 👍 maybe next you can share your favorite go-tos from that book. Haven’t bonked yet but I’ll crush a few larabars on the ride, however in the heat they melt a bit which makes them pretty messy. Lately been using “go-gels” from BPN as they are a real food gel.

How many grams of carbs an hour do you usually aim for when you are on the bike?

Brilliant journey Sir, thank you for sharing your whole foods options and lifestyle workouts. Reminds me when I started group riding and touring over 5 years ago, I'm sure you'll agree with me it's rewarding experiencing the many great changes physically and mentally the body goes through for the good.

After shopping around with the Pros Closet, Red Barn and Buy Cycle I realized I need to go back to basics. Racing in the 1990’s I was on STI 8 spd carbon triangle Trek and an aluminum Cannondale. I decided to go new rim Trek AL 2 with Claris and square taper BB that was on clearance for $ 750. Got some Aliexpress components to eventually upgrade tp 11 spd and carbon rims after I burn through the drivetrain. The frame rides and handles nice.

My front tire blew sidewall. 90 psi on hooked rim. Very fast tires as I hit the chip seal at 30 mph. I can’t trust them anymore. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bsh-ZsWqr9mnYHU.htmlsi=j9WFd9gKTIauRRl_

Purchasing my first new bike was a significant expense, and I had to wait a long time to afford it. Prior to that, I used my dad's bike and later bought a Trek FX with drop bars for $300 from Facebook Marketplace. This was a big difference to the $2,000 I eventually spent on my new Giant TCR. I believe that anyone who no longer needs their bike, has upgraded to a new one, or owns multiple should consider selling them at an affordable price to those looking to enter the sport. That’s something we can do as a community but I’m not sure what these brands can do because there is no way they’re lowering prices😭.

It's only expensive if you buy the latest junk from big bike. My main fixed gear steel bike has all top level components with Reynolds 725 steel, comes in at 17 pounds weight, has thin aero tubing. You can put this together for like 900 brand new in the winter when prices are low. It's like a rocketship, you don't need the latest tech.

When companies are a monopoly it gives the consumer no choice but to pay what they ask. As long as people pay it they are going to keep the prices as high as they can. Doesn't make sense to me that a bicycle can cost more than a motorbike. Some people will argue that the high price tag bicycle is a high level race bike, Really? Those people are pretty damn stupid. I'm just thankful I'm not in the market for a new bike and hopefully never will be again. Of coarse I do have to replace things that wear out, but there is a lot of stuff on ebay which are greatly discounted from what they cost when the manufacturer introduced them. I'm all about shopping for bargains from now on.

cheapest thing ive ever done. Buy once cry once on a dream build and your running costs for the next 3 years are just replacement tires/tubes and maybe 3 sets of brake pads. Ive never seen anyone online get more punctures/sliced tires than me (50+last yr and 30+ so far this yr total) I have at least 1 tire made non repairable every month and running any one of my "worlds lightest" bike builds accounting for the horrible road conditions here costs me less than ~180/mo all in. The additional food cost however of burning 10k cals a week is far more than the bike maintenance costs tho, and your gonna have that even if your riding a beater bike.

Love your channel. My journey as a very novice cyclist is that you should take a utilitarian approach to it. Learn the fundamentals so that economics of it don’t still you from doing the thing you like/love. From the illustrious perspective from all the trail riders I’ve come across “run what you brung” the goal is to just get out there and explore your journey.

To the question of what can be done about the high cost: Honestly , probably nothing. I think most sports that adults choose for hobbies (golf, tennis, cycling, cars, etc.) seem to all cost or can cost an arm and a leg. I don’t think that’s going to change anytime soon. Maybe if more people become aware of things while they are growing up, they might try to pursue careers that will make it easier to afford certain hobbies. But, the more people interested, the higher the demand and, the higher the demand, the higher the prices 😮 Appreciate your video!

For me that muc-off dry ceramic didn't work for me on my Giant TCR.....i stuck to rock n roll gold lube.. That ceramic stuff felt like i was peddling thru mud

All of life is expensive. It’s called inflation. Trump 2024

Since the pandemic prices went nuts. I can afford to buy from the western brands but i refuse to pay that much. Chinese bikes for me from know on.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Cycling is expensive, riding a bicycle is not.

In Answer to ' What Can We Do?' Before you mentioned Eastern Cycling being generous to you, when you touched on the lack of Repurposing I thought: approach Eastern Cycling to partake in a Community Based Repurposing Initiative, in which you go find the parts, from wherever they're being scrapped, gather them together and build Bikes via a Workshop, or so. Bikes that you give to those participating in said Workshop, which you'd run. You could run them every Fortnight, for a few months or so, if that's how long Building a Bike takes: they build their own Bike - they'd otherwise be unable to afford them; this is how Eastern can confirm their Ethos; supporting underprivileged people into the Sport! (Also, Business-wise: As a result, they will have the same Brand Loyalty to Eastern that you do). Invite Eastern Cycling to support your Initiative by providing you with New Components/Sets/Parts (you'll know which to ask for), which'll enable you, as well as all taking part in your Initiative, to build complete Bikes. In return you name them as Sponsors or say " In Association With ", you also link the Workshop to a Race, or a Tour in which the Bikes made from said Repurposed parts are used. This could happen Annually! 'Recycled Riders'... 'Repurposed Riders'... You Know the vibes! You can do it, that's why it's in your heart! Started from the Hood, too, my passion is Music and Art, did my own thing and made my own Inroads into places I wasn't necessarily confident were fully accessible to me, by Faith. (God helps folk even if they don't believe in Him, so that's not a prerequisite!). You're taking the right steps by asking... I wish you Good Fortune and Great Success.

My commuter (electric) bike was a little pricy, £1200 for a good e-bike, nothing fancy just well built, but I've rode so many miles on it I think it's been 100% worth it. Now I've just bought a normal pedal bike from the same make for about £400 for leisure rides and riding with friends.

The commercial aspect of cycling has glorified it like running. When we use to run, we use to just pop on whatever cheap trainers and a black bin bag if it was raining. Mileage got done.. A lot of hype for lackluster watt output. Cycling is cool, and theirs different ways to cycle but I agree, it should be much more accessible. It's a dangerous sport too, which is an aspect I've ignored for years (mostly because I've cycled daily in a major city since I was 13 haha)

In my opinion the industry don’t want ppl who might not be privileged enough to enter the sport. One of those person could probably pick up a bike and participate in Tour de France and win by will power. Big industry tent to do that often. For example you have to get yourself to a privileged status to ever participate in Wimbledon you can’t just pick up a rack and just be the best tennis player.

The cycling companies seem to only be focused on profit. They convince the consumer that they need all these gimmicky parts and materials that are way overpriced. There’s no reason a good steel or aluminum frameset should cost over $500. Anything over $2,000 for a bike is too much for the non professional cyclist.

Hey Dwayne, I’m in between sizes with the bike 53cm and 55cm. I’m 5’9, 230 pounds. What do you recommend?
