right, like an Olympics type of event done over several weeks. of course jpow would be left out in the current situation unless you come up with a way to do it covid isolation style, where you come up with challenges that each person can do alone wherever they are. the question is, do you keep each presenter on the bike of their discipline, do you take them out of their element and give them challenges on each kind of bike. personally I like the second option, especially since I know some of the presenters don't limit themselves to one discipline

Still remember the guy who said the best bike is the one you ride all the time. Would have been interested to see how a lightweight XC bike would have fared as well, as I don't think there is massive difference between some of them and the gravel.

@dlevi67 3 роки тому

@@jonboyjon1976 Yep. That would be interesting - especially (at least for me) on a longer ride. It's jolly good to know that the gravel bike is faster on a short stretch of tarmac, but what I'm really interested in is whether the advantage is sustained or increased over a longer riding distance of 20-40 miles - and whether a XC bike is able to keep up. I "think" I know the answer, but it would be nice to see it for real!

@RedCometNurse 3 роки тому

After riding mtn on gravel and road trails for years, the change to a gravel bike has been phenomenal. I easily get an extra 5 mph in speed just due to the gearing (and a little more aero). I am too much of a chicken to take steep downhill stuff anyway.

@umtomtom 3 роки тому

no one cares about how fast you do a route. it’s about having a good all rounder that can tackle everything instead of compromising the route because the bike isn’t capable and all you care about is strava times

@trainiax 2 роки тому

@@umtomtom "All-rounder" can mean different things. I've owned mountain bikes since childhood, but as soon as I started cycling more seriously last year the deficiencies on smooth surfaces (slow) and long rides (numb hands/wrists) became all too apparent. At the same time, I didn't want to give up disc brakes, stable handling and ride comfort on the many (often rough) gravel roads where I live. A gravel bike was the ideal solution - and even better, a second set of wheels with some narrower road-oriented tires essentially gives me 2 bikes in 1 (gravel and road). I've never uploaded to Strava, but it's impossible to deny the satisfaction that comes from going significantly faster for the same effort. If I want to go offroad, I still have an older hardtail - but for everything else the gravel bike is simply better.

@tongotongo3143 Рік тому

Significantly faster means you win about 10 minutes for one hour ride on a good surface. It means nothing if you aren’t going in a competition with time measurement. The faster you go with poor control drop bars the less safe is your trip. While on a hardtail MTB is safer and more stable, also more comfortable because front suspension and thicker tires. Also MTB slightly more upright position allows you to observe and enjoy surroundings more.

@ckunkleman 3 роки тому

This video takes me back to a rainy summer bikepacking loop I took my partner on this summer; think Steamboat CO's "Gravel Gruel" plus the "Wyoming Trail". I think y'all nailed it with the gear ratio and handling disparities, but looking at storage choices (and weight distribution), rider gear to accommodate terrain outliers, and how taking in an epic view with a nip of whiskey or bit of legal herbs also makes the differences between his gravel bike and my hardtail somewhat irrelevant. Except for maybe his multiple flats, and how he ate all my snacks.

This is a really interesting question and although I loved the video (really entertaining, fun and probably what you were aiming for to keep your audience happy) it did nothing to answer the question really. What about a decent 100mm travel hardtail with relatively skinny tyres vs. a gravel bike? As someone who does a lot of bikepacking on a hardtail I'm one of a large number of riders in a substantial market segment ready to be converted to a Gravel Bike...but, only if someone can answer the question, which is really better over a sensible selection of real bikepacking terrain...Gravel Bike or MTB...'nother film anyone?
