Mechanical disc brakes are the soul-patch of bicycles.

So does the "moped' mode mean it will go without having to pedal then ?

Wonderful world greetings

Brilliant grown up review, so much better than a Pilgrim one I just sat through, well done

6:54 the compression block must always be completely recessed in the stem, and the small spacer should also have been moved downwards

$1500 frame?? It is better be good. Jeez, I can get Trek or Giant carbon is US for the money. Cut $200 BXT frame from Ali please, then we will talk :)

Rob Granville good boy,i remember when we started Carbon Bike Repair with Marek in the Dorking farm 🤣

but but but. all these Big Brands are. made from same factory in Asia😂

Why the fitter never tried adjusting the stem spacers and the assorted handlebar stack? That's also VERY important, in the triangle of measurements.

Does the Superior bike brand, such as the Superior XP 929 Lightweight Carbon Frame Hardtail, have good carbon fiber bike frames? thanks for sharing your expertise

Thanks for the info. I have same problem like you have. I cleaned the new chain 2, 3 times properly but I still have waxy gunk that annoying me because it make black dots on my floor. After cycling rainly day, the cleanliness of chain is much worse.

these internal routed cable are really a blessing for bike mechanics. i will go partly external until i can afford a sram axs

I got this same bike a fortnight ago, it doesn't help at all when going up hill. Also i received it with 3 bars on the battery and they are all still intact and I haven't charged it yet. Could it be am not using the electric mode correctly considering you mentioned the battery runs out pretty fast?

£363 now. Tempted to get one just for a little fun run around at the weekends

Hey brother how’s your elves bike doing right now after a year of riding it? I’m looking on building the same build soon

the bike is too small

Been through a few bikes since 1980's. Currently hold 1 road, 1 gravel from Specialized and a road Yoeleo - all carbon. Yoeleo w/Ultegra Di2 12 sp. and deep carbon wheels was ~½ price of the last Specialized. No discernable difference to me. All three are great rides. YMMV.

Either way, carbon fiber aint no joke. Its strong.

Who's hiding by the grey cloth and green pointer? Come forth and show yourself. oldmrmegadrive2. blogspot. com

To kill you’re frame you don’t have to drugs the tube A little damage decreasing compressive strength will be enough and then it will fail while riding

That’s not a good test If you want to test the toughness in a meaningful way You have to impact it. And then test compressive strength Carbon finer frame don’t fail by getting holes in them they fail after strength is reduced due to impact

13:00. Monocoque does bot mean one piece It means that the skin is stressed and not supported by internal structure

Out of interest what size frame did you buy?

Left handed sissy HOT THE FRAME!

Silca is better

Where did you find a “western brand”, dude? 90% of them belong to companies from either Taiwan or from China )

#LOL all that work for 8.57 kg :D

True stand link 🔗 and tension tool please

i have the decathlon d100. and i had a tacx flux 2. not much difference exept the price. offcoarse there is a difference, but not so much to have this price difference

Would be a travesty but would like to see a Time ADH cut up if you havent already done it. Be nice to see if their wax mould and carbon sock weave process is as good as claimed

This is why open hardware frames are better. Yes, they doesn't look pretty (like replicas), but such issues like with that fork joints are not a subject in that case. You can make them less boring with some paint I guess.

Choose 1 size smaller on what the bike manufacturer recommends

Enge ep-2 pro..best 859eur I spent. 750W motor, real good battery, real solid bicycle overall I can’t imagine it better with that price. It’s stronger than the fidos I’ve seen

Never did a battery only test?

Can you get a second battery for it

You lose any aero benefit by fitting tyres wider than the rims.

The price fluctuates a lot. At the moment there only £250

I wonder aren't slicks too dangerous in a city? Why not to use more "grippy" tires? An extra resistance would help to improve your physical conditions =) Because it's like to use a Carrera GT to get to an office. That's possible, and it's fast but ..

Take my like dude (a good selection, and assembling, and a journaling), but that cap above handlebars looks irrelevant. I wonder could it be only few mm in height, or whether a totally flat handlebars top surface is possible?

sorry, but this "test" is absolutely dumb!!! A bike frame simply isn't made for forces like this, and it will NEVER experience such forces in real life

7:16 Is the pictured pictured promax stem what you actually bought for this bike? It’s going to look laughably out of place compared to original adjustable stem. Notice how far down the quill is tapered, you won’t be able to insert the quill further than 3” in to the fork steerer. These stems were made for your dads comfort bike. The 25.4mm clamp size is going to really limit your handlebar choices too, rules out most drop bars.

Good job I have a couple of Parlees. A Z Zero and an old CX that I don't use. On the one hand, it makes me a little morbid to see what it's like inside. But on the other hand, it would be a shame to break a frame that can still work. What a dilemma. What What I can say is that carbon and its lightness-stiffness is more for professionals or people who move a lot of watts. Most of us would go the same or better with a good steel or titanium. I have a 953 stainless steel and a titanium Baum and I like it a lot the feeling of metal on the road. For the mountains I am not considering a double that is not made of steel. And a hardtail that is not also made of steel or titanium. Carbon does not interest me in the mountains

Very good and detailed comparison, much appreciated.

To be honest this is not a perfect trainer. 1 noises coming out. 2Resistance is feeling strange3 cadence sensor not working well. Definitely that wasn’t my dream trainer.

@RideGiantBicycles best be taking notice and sending you a 2024 TCR to complete the stable! (PS. ONCE was pronounced "on-say", at least by Paul and Phil.)

35mm tires will require more pressure than the 45mm

Ok I’m never buying a bike with hidden cables. It’s so not worth it.

期待有台灣代理😢

Propaganda, ridiculing Chinese brands, but the fact is, both here and there, there are companies producing crap and those that make things that are often even better than those here... so it's such nonsense that makes no sense....

Same seat clamp as on current Giant trance, trance X and reign MTBs. So was is replaced or Giant still produce the exact same seat clamp?! 😅
