We Bought Used Bikes For Under $2000 | Which Was Best?
Переглядів 243,130
День томуIf you were given $2,000 to buy any bike you want, what would you do? Here at GCN, we'd almost certainly go for a used bike.
Thanks to @buycycle Si, Alex, and special guest star from @gtn Mark Threlfall have done exactly that. Between them they've gone for a modern future-proof bike, a five year old superbike, and a time trial bike.
But most importantly, which is the best $2,000 used bike we could buy?
In association with 🤝 @buycycle

@lieblingsleguan1591 11 днів тому
The blue Cannondale is not from 2019, it's from 2014! In 2019, the SuperSix had straight fork blades, that's why I looked up what year that frame colour is really from. Given it's a ten year old frame with 6800 Ultegra without the Ultegra crank set and not the high mod version of the frame, it's way overpriced even with the Enve wheels. For reference I had the exact same frame from 2015. I bought it new in January 2016 (in sale obviously) for 1900£. It had cheap Mavic wheels but an almost complete SRAM Red22 group set (Cannondale SI crank set and Force22 cassette). I loved that bike. But it had a total clearance of 29mm between the chain stays, so riding 23s with a measured width of 25mm, there was 2mm on each side between frame and tire. There was a lot of variance between frames in that regard looking at forum discussions from the time. A very nice bike, but not a superbike by any means. It's a ten year old mid range bike.

Thanks for the comment! We would love to know what it is about the video you didn't like at the start? We're always trying to improve our videos 🙌

Loved the video. The Vitus is a such a good deal, regardless of the mishmash of components 😀

What a weapon it is! 🚀 Would that be your choice?

Well done guys enjoyed this one 👏 as I have 2 Trek's the Emonda & Madone it's got to be the Trek 👍they are a brilliant bike
@adi2602 12 днів тому
Can you please tell me the differences between the 2 that you feel? What makes them different? I know one is lighter and one more aero type bike but just curious to see from someone who owns both. Thanks
@mikefisher9895 12 днів тому
The Madone is more aero DI2 ultegra gears and ultegra breaks too built for speed the Emonda is great for ascents it's got 105 gears ( I may upgrade gears someday) both bikes feel completely different one feels more agile.

For me the Trek looks the best. Matches the GCN styling too! Bang for buck is arguably the Cannodale though

In that weather, the last test should have been a brake test 😅. I think still, the Emonda is the winner here,.....but I have also bought a "brand new", used Domane SL5. And a really great video, by the way❤.

I love watching this type of video. Buying used bike at a price point and compared who got the best bike for the money. 👍 to everyone. Cracking show.

Love how they made the best of that horrid weather, they all look in such good spirits ! That said, I would not try to sprint in such wet conditions !!

Classic Super Six Evo for me. Will hold its value in the UK for hill climbs too.

Great film guys. Rim brakes forever! 😂😂👍🚵♂️
@MS-bw7yt 13 днів тому
Not for me. I take disc's any day of the week. They are not perfect, but so aren't rim brakes.

GTN crossover and challenges. Simply the perfect video 👌
@gcn 12 днів тому
We would love to do more with our triathlete buddies! Any other challenges we should do?
@jonasvieth 12 днів тому
@@gcn Maybe 10 mile TT with a 1k budget including modifications. Or a race to a destination where you can choose the route. Long route for a TT bike and a short route for a gravel (maybe even XC with GMBN).

I particularly like the TREK SL 6 because I purchased one in 2019. It has the Shimano R8000 group set. I've swapped the wheels for 50mm Mavic Elite and a 53-39 chain ring.
@trimmxx2169 12 днів тому
The best video you have done in a while. The trek was the best of the bunch.
@richcrompton6891 12 днів тому
Cracking vid! Just the ticket for what I’m looking for right now too! Just need that Trek in a 54!

My self-built full carbon gravel bike was 2400 £ and it is 8,4 kg with disc brakes. GRX 11s mechanical, 45 mm tyres, pedals, Garmin and frame bag, two bottle cages. Everything was bought new, except pedals.
@gcn 10 днів тому
Self built! Please do explain more 👀
@jevgeniardassov 10 днів тому
I mean not a pre-built bike. Ribble CGR carbon, Elite 35 deep gravel wheels. Specialized 45 mm tyres. Full 11sp GRX800 grupo. Restrap framebag. Shimano XTR spd pedals. PRO carbon bar, stem and bartape. Had no choice around covid first wave. Everything was sold out, had to build it myself… And ofcourse Fizik Argo gravel saddle.

I like this format, very top gear (in a good way)
@LuisFernandez-cg6lc 11 днів тому
I bought a 2017 Wilier Triestina GTR for 2000 bucks as well, did a couple upgrades worth about 1000 and I love it. Like it more than my $7500 Pinarello.
@RudiDwiHartanto 12 днів тому

Cannondale is a fucking steal for that price, that bike is a crit monster, amazing wheels, super light for fast acceleration.
@wrench_n_ride8159 11 днів тому
Si, kudos for your bike choice! Top rated brand, timeless geometry, disc brakes, and it's American!
@user-tq3ud9zi7w 12 днів тому
I can't believe that rim brake bikes especially that Cannondale are still so expensive in the UK. As Simon would say "Bonkers".

Picked up a 2019 Bianchi XR4, full duraace di2, stages power crank and duraace wheels for £1750, absolute steal
