Transcripts
this is my gravel bike I've only been
cycling for a few years but of all the
types of bike that I've ridden in that
time this is by far my favorite but it
wasn't cheap in fact I had to tell my
wife that we couldn't go on holiday
after I bought this thing
and because of its cost and the way that
I use it just for fun and exercise
really a lot of people have told me that
I was Daft to spend so much they said
with my lack of experience they doubt
I'd even notice the difference between
this and the cheapest gravel bike I
could find
so I went on Amazon and got the cheapest
gravel bike I could find I'm now going
to ride them back to back and see if
getting mine was a mistake what if any
difference can I spot between the two of
them others one I've already noticed I
didn't have to cancel a holiday to get
this thing
I did have to cancel a Burger King
though it was cheap it wasn't free
so before comparing these two let me
just say why I'm enjoying gravel biking
so much right now I should point out in
case you're new to this channel I've
only been riding bikes since 2020 and
the first year was spent on one that had
no wheels since I've done some mountain
bike do athlons or race my Civello TT
bike a few times but I'm still really
inexperienced somebody with more history
of cycling may not feel the same as I do
about all this but I love this thing I'm
not really interested in racing those
duathlons were fun but I'm more just
into getting out and using this on the
weekend and enjoying exercising on it
and for that neither the mountain bike
nor the triathlon bike are ideal the
mountain bike too slow on the road
sections I never really rode anywhere
extreme enough off-road that I needed
it's trail riding qualities the
triathlon bike certainly fast enough on
the road that road really does need to
be straight and smooth and flat there
might be some places where it'd be a
great bike for a Sunday morning ride but
not really around here so as soon as I
took this thing out I was just inviting
Heaven it is plenty fast enough on the
road for me and I'm like the Civello
will go around callers quickly too it
can easily handle the sort of easy
trails that I encounter on my regular
Loop that I ride and more important for
me it just feels safe and comfy and easy
to use and I have to dodge holes and
bumps in the road I can take shortcuts
that no road bike will be happy with and
I can load it up with a sandwich and
just go out for hours in fact this
summer I'm using this to do a chase the
sun ride 200 miles to one side of the UK
to the other it just does everything
great it's a perfect all-rounder but how
much of that is down to it being a
gravel bike and how much down to it
being an expensive gravel bike okay so
here's the plan there is a loop that is
about five kilometers that I normally
either finish or start my regular
weekend ride win so I know quite well
I'm gonna do it first on the cheap bike
and then when I get back swap opened on
my regular bike back to back as simple
as that
and you know what the 300 pound the
Amazon Bike by Euro bike isn't actually
that bad it came with next day delivery
it was 90 built in the Box took me about
five minutes to just Chuck The Wheels On
and tighten up the handlebars and that
was it and everything about it does just
seem fine and there's some pretty
obvious indicators that you haven't
postponed the Maldives for this thing
the gear change levers are these kind of
kooky things set up on the center of the
bars that are pretty flimsy the disc
brakes are cable operated so you need to
give yourself plenty of stopping
distance and I had to tighten everything
up very tight to stop things like the
handlebars from rotating and the seat
post slipping stuff like that but on the
plus side I wasn't afraid of over
tightening anything and damaging it
because based on it's 16 kilos it seems
to be made of solid iron luckily the
first section of my 5K Loop was downhill
and on the road so the weight was not a
huge disadvantage and it is perfectly
suited to that it's comfortable the
tires are not quite as wide as on my
specialized but they're still able to
soak up bumps in the road and you have
no fear about damaging expensive road
bike wheels with narrow tires in
potholes and stuff those cable operated
brakes need hauling on to stop the thing
but to be fair they may have improved
with a bit more bedding in and worth
noting I am riding it here literally as
it came the only thing I've added to it
is a spare set of pedals that I had
lying around in fact that spare set of
pedals with some Garmin two-sided power
meter ones that actually cost about
three times value of the bike so I did
have this rather odd concern that I
needed to keep an eye out for hoodlums
on a moped that might whiz up at any
moment and threaten me with a power
drill or whatever they use nowadays as
they force me to listen to some gangster
rap or something and then just make off
with just my pedals but despite having
my favorite Martin Lawrence line ready
to go Wesley Snipes passenger 57. that
never happened and I reached the
off-road section in one piece and this
is really indicative of the sort of
stuff that I ride on for much of my
gravel biking basically foot paths like
this or highways that could be wet and
muddy and slippy in the winter and then
drier and obviously faster in the summer
I am very rarely if ever going anywhere
or an actual mountain bike would be the
better choice and it was fine over this
stuff the tires didn't struggle it
wasn't sliding around all over the place
and because the frame size is a bit
smaller than my regular bike it actually
felt quite Nimble I say the frame size
is a bit smaller I didn't buy the wrong
one eurobike make these like gloves or
socks this is a one size fits all men's
bike average height to Tool height now
we're at Bargain Basement credentials
did let it down was once the mud got a
bit deep to plow through it required
going around you need to hold on the
brakes to slow the thing down once
you're at the right speed you then need
to shift your hands to those gear levers
in the middle of the bars adjust
accordingly I have to be honest the
front shifter especially feels like a
direct descendant for a rally Chopper
then you can steer around your obstacle
and then once you're confident you can
ride with one hand again you can adjust
the gearing as you accelerate away now
I'm not racing here and importantly when
I'm out for a couple of hours keeping
fit on a weekend I'm not racing there
either I don't need to go as fast as
possible it's more just about confidence
and how the lack of confidence takes
some of the fun away from the experience
coming up to an obstacle on how to treat
it cautiously because the bike is a bit
heavy and doesn't stop great and gear
selection needs to be allocated its own
little time slot is not fun to be fair
it's a bike much more at home on terrain
that you could probably get away with
riding a regular road bike on if you
didn't mind wrecking it this Trail in
the summer will be perfect along here
where it's a bit less perfect was the
one Hill on this loop it's about five
kilos heavier than I specialize and
somebody weighing over 100 kilos I
didn't think another five would make
much difference it does but once back on
the flat it was all good again and to be
fair despite the front and rear
mechanism now being covered in mud and
Gunk the gear change never skipped a
beat always dropping into the right Cog
with a positive click the levers feel
cheap but they work as a road bike
starting to commute on to get around
town to use at the weekend without
worrying about destroying it if you do
Venture off the tarmac a bit it simply
does the job
okay heading home
ride one done
time to swap bikes
I was starting to wonder if riding the
specialized would now leave me
struggling to justify having spent the
price of a small car more than the Euro
bike on it okay round two
[Applause]
foreign
struggle with that at all in the end
that specialized diverged pro-carbon is
to me worth every single penny obviously
you are paying for what you get but you
are getting lots I wasn't sure on the
color when I saw it online but in real
life everyone that sees it loves it the
finish on it as you'd expect is
immaculate it's got the SRAM one by
setup on it so it's got no front Mech
obviously therefore looks really clean
and importantly it's also easy to keep
really clean it's got 12 speed on the
back all controlled with the etap AXS
electronic shifting obviously hydraulic
brakes everything's carbon it's got a
bunch of attachment points if you want
to add extra luggage or more water
bottles and stuff interestingly the
Amazon bike only has space for one
bottle and in terms of weight even with
my pedals on it my phone my lights my
storage bags there's a bottle on there
I've got a tool kit stashed inside the
frame in its own little cubby hole so
literally ready to ride for the day it's
still five kilos less than the Euro bike
now on the road all that just makes it
feel like a nicer bite you can obviously
tell you're on something a bit more
expensive a bit more special but if all
you did was ride on the road you might
question the value for money in fact the
comparison of an expensive road bike
versus a Euro bike road bike would be a
closer battle because as soon as this
thing goes off-road it leaves the other
miles behind there is no comparison with
its bigger frame size it doesn't feel as
Nimble but everything just works so well
together that it makes its bigness a
non-issue and that everything else is a
lot of stuff first of all it's got what
specialized called Future Shock 2.0 it's
basically 20 mils of hydraulically
dampened travel that sits underneath the
stem you can adjust How firm it is or it
isn't with a dial on top it's the sort
of thing that seems like a complete
gimmick until you ride it and realize
it's brilliant on the road it soaks up
just about everything and it means you
don't need to be swerving around lumps
and bumps and drain covers and whatever
other junk is in the road the way that
you would on a regular road bike an
off-road especially on Trails like this
you can absolutely fly along with no
jarring through the bars and no concerns
about hitting rocks and tree roots and
then there's the SRAM spec stuff the
brakes are brilliant in the wet or the
dry being fully carbon the bike is
obviously light but I am not so anything
that can stop me reassuringly quickly
gets my vote and then the wireless
electronic gear shifting for me probably
the highlight of the bike I've used the
Shimano di2 version on my savello so I'm
not new to electronic shifting but on
the road it always felt like a kind of a
cool luxury that was very clever but
that was about it off-road it just comes
into its own I could fly up to obstacles
grab the brakes click down a couple of
gears at the same time pedal round the
obstacle in exactly the right gear and
then power out the same shifting as I go
hands never having to leave the hoods
interacting with the brakes and the
gears and the steering all at the same
time it's almost like a cheap mode that
never leaves your legs spinning too fast
or too slow and it was a thing that made
the biggest difference between the two
bikes and there's no denying that the
thing being very light is very good when
it does get bashed offline it's easier
to correct it it never feels like you're
having to sort of haul it around and as
a result you can take on slightly larger
obstacles with far less thought for
example just being able to easily lift
the front wheel over water fills ruts
that might be deeper than they look both
the bike's weight and that 20 mil of
travel in the front end just allows you
to do stuff like that very simply and of
course the weight is also nice when it
comes to getting up actual Hills it
turned the same incline into something
that I felt I was able to power up as
opposed to slugging up
foreign
going into this I was quite happy
genuinely quite happy to be proven
at least a little bit wrong
uh for it to be shown that the cheaper
bike
is
not necessarily about it then but almost
as good
in many ways
as this thing
but um
it's not
this thing is just
infinitely better
than the Amazon bike in every way
that was a lot of fun so the result was
that the specialized diverge Pro carbon
was faster by almost two and a half
minutes over that short course but
there's more to it than just going
quicker it's why I went quicker so on
neither ride was I going fat out I was
deliberately just riding at my sort of
out for a Sunday ride speed trying to
consistently go quick enough to provide
good exercise and keep my heart rate
high the reason the diverge was quicker
by so much is because I wasn't slowing
down for obstacles in the same cautious
manner I mean I did have to slow down I
could break later I could arrive at the
obstacle in the right gear therefore and
accelerate away more readily again
because of that ability to shift gear
while braking and steering all at the
same time but for me the biggest
Improvement wasn't that all those
differences made for a quicker ride to
be honest whether I get home two or
three minutes later or sooner simply
just makes no difference it was it made
for a more fun ride less time being
apprehensive more time being confident
and just having the enjoyable sensation
of whizzing along and that is what it
felt like here a mountain bike would
have been overkill for the trail and
slower on the faster sections that were
on it and obviously massively slower on
the road a road bike would have only
been marginally quicker on the road but
would then have been wrecked on the
trail bottom line if I had to ride that
loop as fast as I possibly could I would
pick to do it on my diverge
interestingly there's now a new
specialized diverse for 2023 with
suspension travel added to the back end
as well but it has jacked up the weight
and the price of an already expensive
bike and I'm not entirely sure even if
they were the same cost I would pick it
the way I ride the stuff I ride on I'm
never really feeling like more
suspension travel would solve any
problems for me as it is it's the
perfect bike that can do 90 of things
very well although I've got to say the
Euro bike was no way near as bad as I
thought it might be I had images of it
just falling apart halfway around and
just having to leave it in the bushes
somewhere I even took a spanner with me
so I could whip off those pedals and
throw it in a ditch and walk home but it
did great I've assigned a ride to work
on to take to the gym and not panic
about leaving it locked up outside to
get out on at the weekend and get some
exercise with if your budget is suited
to that type of bike I don't think you'd
be disappointed and I think the gravel
bike concept works at that end of the
market too if you had the road bike
version of this I really don't know what
you'd gain over the gravel bike version
I think the gravel bike idea is just a
good one all round and this is a fine
version of it in fact it's so fine that
if I had space I would genuinely keep it
I'd use it for cycling to the gym or the
pool where I'd be okay locking it up
outside in a way that I never would be
with a specialized if that thing went
missing well I'm halfway through a
workout there is no Martin Lawrence one
liner that would make that situation
better
foreign
I don't have space so it's getting
cleaned up and made as good as new and
I'm giving it to a local charity that
helps out families in need hopefully
then a local kid can get himself to
school on it every day or go visit an
elderly relative they might not be able
to do otherwise or just bunk off school
and cycle to the chip shop with all of
his mates I'll put a mark Lewis YouTube
sticker on it so at least I might pick
up some subscribers from a younger
demographic if he does do that okay that
is it in summary was I right to get the
specialized yes absolutely and you would
be too if it is sensibly affordable for
you and you enjoy riding the sort of
terrain I've shown in this video so it
turns out it was worth skipping that
holiday for and of course the cheaper
bike worth skipping the Burger King for
probably
maybe I don't know I love a Burger King
