On street roads like metro manila where the roads are a mix of good condition cement, fair asphalt surface, some potholes, and a few roads that are still dirt with some rocks, the gravel bike especially, with aluminum frame set with a carbon fork and or even better a super light carbon frame set with SL fork would be the better bike of choice for long rides like bike to work or commute and weekend long distance travel rides. It's a hands down choice over a premium mtb bike. It's great at climbing hills because the rear cassette can go up to a 50 tooth gear which will handle as steep a hill in the Philippines and a 700X40c tires will be more than capable handling rough dirt roads or trails. However, the gravel bike is not meant for jumping. The gravel bike is exactly what it is; roads that change to dirt and gravel and back to asphalt or concrete is what it's meant for than a mountain bike basically designed trail roads or no road. The mtb bike is heavier especially, if the frame is steel. Here in California where I live, all the street roads are mostly asphalt, the preferred bike would be a road bike hands down because even a steel road bike is lighter than a steel frame mtb bike and therefore, less tiring to pedal. Mtb bike are mostly used on trails where it's rougher with dirt and rock type trails and with jumping over on the trail road is normal, an mtb bike with full suspension is the preferred bike ride. I don't have a gravel bike for that reason. I have two mtb bikes that never touched a trail road because I don't like driving to a distant location just to ride on trails and around trees whereas, I pull out my Trek carbon bike with carbon wheels out of the garage and I can ride 30-60 miles (60-100kms) beginning from my garage. I considered purchasing a gravel bike with a SL carbon frame but decided not to buy it because I would not have much use for it. But in the Philippines, a light gravel bike, especially, with a carbon frame, would be my choice of bike for riding all the way to Baguio City if the lockdown there is ever removed. So in the Philippines a lightweight gravel bike would be a much better choice of a bike for those who can afford one and I'm sure the more they become more popular and more in demand, the availability and pricing will eventually be more affordable and the prices will come down.
Wow teka may nanalo na! Haha salamat sa input sir. Very helpful. Basahin nyo to mga paps!
Zzzzzzz..🥱
cash price
Here's the reason why I sold my MTB and built a gravel bike (can't keep both, due to wife acceptance factor😉.)
I had the realization that most, if not all of my rides on my MTB are on tarmac/paved roads. Logically, I needed a bike that is more efficient on roads than an MTB but still not as aggressive a geometry as a road bike and not as harsh-riding as a road bike. A good compromise is a gravel bike, it's a no-brainer really. Having to ride on dirt roads from time to time is a welcome bonus. 😊
Hello sir, what gravel bike frame po did you use and groupset? I have an hardtail mtb also and its too bulky due to the tiresize and handlebar also hindi nako nagttrails
Sunpeed kepler frame set is good

Galing ng review..para sakin recommend ko ang gravel bike para sa mga tao gusto ng bike na pwede gamitin yung bike sa lubak,sa road,pang bike packing,long ride..a bike that can do a little bit of everything...
Basically another MTB pero naka dropbar. Hahaha!
@@McLovin__ at least more hand position..hahah..
@@gelcastano7319 yes, my main reason para bumili hahaha
Eh diba ang gravel bike ay ride na malaki ang tires?
@@ryanc2115 that’s one. Pero some other factors include riding position and preferred gear sizes
eto ang QUALITY CONTENT! hindi bias ang reviews! humihingi ng mga opinion ng ibang youtubers
2 years ago na pala itong video pero relevant pa rin today. I enjoyed the intro, sobrang dami nga ng bike ngayon nakakahilo 😅. I also enjoy the commentary and humor 😂. Kudos to you and your Channel. You earned my sub!
Another quality content Pap! Waiting again for another awesome video! 👍🏼👏🏼
napa subscribe ako ng narinig ko yung " diba kaya nga may mountain bike?" HAHAHA thank you sa knowledge pap :)
At the moment, I'm impressed with your value content. Tipong hindi ako naboring sa bawat detalye ng sinasabi nyo boss. At mukang maaddict pa ko sa channel na to thank you thank you!
finally a great video regarding gravel bike sa Pilipinas. using a rigid MTB 26er since 2009, these days pag nasa bike shop tawag na sa bike ko ay gravel bike.
Finally! The long wait is over! Matagal ko din po din hinintay mga segmet vlog nyo sir, abangan ko po ang pagbuo nyo, sya gravel bike, more powers,RSA & Godbless 😁
Very nice videos very detailed at informative.... I have an MTB and thinking about building a Gravel or Cyclocross or Roadbike out of curiosity.... this answer some of my questions and getting more ideas what bike should I get ... LOOKING FORWARD SA NEXT VIDEO ABOUT GRAVEL ... RIDE SAFE AND GOD BLESS...
Oh my gosh this is so informative, thanks! Great content!
Yes, may bagong video!
solid review. eyeing on that kepler as well! kudos sir! jamming na! :)
I've been using a Frontera Gravel bike for over 4 months now and it's good for both casual road and off-road.
Isang malupit na vlogger to. Leyman mag explain direct to the point.
Thank you po for being a very humble and nice content creator po. Hindi inaatupag ang profit. Very humbling po especually to young people that watches you po. Salamat!
Still one of the most comprehensive bike channels💪🏻
Nice vid content idol! Very timely and relevant kasi tulad ko na nag sawa na sa trail, napapaisip ako mag switch to gravel from mtb since long ride type of guy ako. Auto subscribe kasi quality content 💯
Most underrated bike vlogger. Galing!
I've ridden MTB (XC) for years and also rode Fixed for a few months.
MTB XC all around talaga long ride ahon lusong patag training no problem.
Fixed Gear di ko ma recommend kasi iba talaga. Nasa lakas ng rider, physically and mentally. Siguro kung mag fixed gear ulit ako, pang lifestyle city ride commute lang.
Roadbike balak ko ngayon kunin after 3 years na di nakapag bike pero I'm also considering going gravel para di hassle para sakin mag adjust especially sa mga routes na hindi naman totally sementado o aspalto gaya nung sa may marcos mansion as well as pag nag leisure rides sa mga bundok offroad.
Grabe talaga uploads mo sir, QUALITY! 👍👍 More uploads to come, keep safe sir Zack, de.. joke lang haha😂
as usual nice content, paps! very timely and upload hehe bigla ako napa check kala ko nasa coffee chess ako e hehehe looking forward sa next gravel episode :)
Nice vid sir. Looking forward sa build and next vid 👍
Nice info sa gravel bike sir! Until sa next upgrade 😊🙏🏻
Quality Content, more please!!
Wow, this is very interesting and informative. Nasagot nito yung mga tanong ko since I am thinking of moving to gravel bike from using mtb. Mukhang may mabi-binge watch ako!! Nice shirt and socks din po! 🚴
solid talaga mga contents mo sir Unli Upgrade, keep it up!!
I bought a gravel bike because I want to simplfy my collection, bought 2 wheelset nlng. One is for light trails and one for the road. I dont really do downhills so a gravel bike is enough for me.
How's the experience? Interested din akong bumili ng gravel bike dahil halos lahat sabi nila ang cool ng bike.
nice! kahit matagal mag upload ng video atlist may sustansya ang content
Waiting for part 2 sir.
God bless!
Nice! My thoughts rin, Hindi ko alam saan siya papasok between XC hard tail and road bike. Good topic bro! Keep it up!👍🏻
Thank you very much po sa lahat ng information! Hopefully magka-gravel bike din.
Eto yung content na quality over quantity, 2 vlog pa lang napapanood ko napa subscribe na agad ako. Kasi alam ko may mapupulot akong information about sa new found hobby ko.
Good Job Ser!
Ayaw monlba dun sa isang unli? Unli di sure.
Informative and entertaining! 🎉
Yeeessss ang upload na hinihintay ko HAHAHAHA
Sobrang lupit ng content solid!!
Astig tlga ng review grabe worth waiting
Boss! Keep your mountain bike for trails, lalo't mukhang nagte-technical riding kayo. Ibang discipline mountain biking at di lahat may lakas ng loob gawin yun. Pero gravel bikes will take you farther faster.
First bike ko dito sa Melbourne single gear (freewheel), bago nag-mountain style, 3x8-speed bike commuter. Sobrang pinahirapan ko pala sarili ko gamit ang single gear bike, laking ginhawa sobra nung additional gears. Tapos nagawi ako sa una kong endurance drop-bar road bike; ang pagiging aero at different ride positions naman ang bentahe sa ganito. Ngayon, all-rounder drop-bar bike gamit ko, yung Giant Contend AR3 (2020). Kaya ang light gravel sa 700x32 tyres, pwede ko pang laparan (hanggang 38mm) para mas okay sa rougher surface, pero saka na. Tyre clearance ang kailangan mong i-consider sa future build mo. Hindi naman kailangan GRX groupset bilhin mo, pwede na ang Shimano Claris, 2x8-speed. Karamihan ng gravel bikes dito sa Melbourne road bike groupsets pa rin ang gamit. Check mo then 1x groupsets ng MicroShift, mas mura. :)
Di mo pagsisihan ang pag-build niyan, lalo't kung gusto mo ma-maximise health benefits ng cycling, riding hard and fast para sa resistance training or riding farther naman para sa endurance. Easy ang 35km/h sa'yo sa tagal mo nang pagpadyak. Good luck sa build boss, abangan ko sa sunod na update.
Very informative video as always paps! Dami ko natutunan at ang galing ng pagkuha ng opinion from other known vloggers. Dati torn din ako sa aggressive set up saka pang longride kaya ginawa ko nun separate wheelsets. DH tires ska CX tires para switch lang ng wheelset depende sa ride. Umorder na ko paps sana umabot sa first 3! Haha more power sa channel mo! Bagong youtuber din ako pero more on trail rides palang hehe 🤙
Sold out agad paps hehe ganda ng mga vlog nyo maayos panoorin halatang binigyan talaga ng time and effort sa editing quality kasi! 👍 More upload to come paps
Sulit ang paghihintay ko sa video mo sir..... Ang ganda ng content. Aabangan ko talaga yan next video mo

MTB user here, napapaisip nrn ako mag gravel bike bihira narin kasi mag trail and mga nka fixie/road bike ang mga tropa. since pandemic puro patag or paahon ung mga daanan. masarap lng ikaakyat or ibaba sa sidewalk kng traffic ang mtb. mukhang masarap ung gravel combo ng mtb pati roadbike. abangan ko part 2 ng vid mo. para makakuha ng idea ng setup
Nag e improve yung intro hahahahah. Kepp up the great videos Kuya
"Ay pucha ano to." Hahah waiting for the part2 keep it up lods

Actually, salamat sayo sir. Very valuable info. Same here sana makaride tayo. Soon.
nice review sir...napa subscribe ako bigla dahil masaya panoodin...hehehe...bglang bumili ng fram...hahaha..keep it up
Hi sir. +1 sub.
Thanks sa videong ito. Naghahanap talaga kong mga reviews, thoughts, etc tungkol sa gravel bike. Pero main purpose ko sa gravel ay road lang talaga. Pwedeng road bike, pero parang delikado sa mga baku-bako na daan. Gusto ko lang ng bike na mas mabilis, comfortable at mas magaan lalo na pag nagbabalak mag-long ride. Nababagalan kase ko sa MTB ko.
Saka parang ang hirap magtrail sa gravel bike kase rigid fork. Kaya MTB pa rin pag trails :D
Quality Content. Feel a little inspired with this to create bike related films. Kabibili ko lang ng Betta Halfmoon Gravel bike (weird lang kase 35c lang max tire na pwede ng likod).
Two reason why I bought it, una, hindi naman kami nag ti-trail (kahit na me 2 kami na mtb), so hindi ko makita yung point na bumili ulit ako ng mtb for me. Pangalawa, hindi optimal ang road conditions dito sa lugar namin for road bike, so markout na agad ang RB (yung first time naride ko yung Halfmoon, naka 23c pa sya, pucha na lubak ako, parang tatalbog kamay ko sa drob bar). Good compromise for me yung gravel bike kase hindi sya kasing specific ng mtb and then hindi sya kasing tagtag ng road bike sa mga lubak. Also, gusto ko lang din yung look nya, dropbars with big-ish tires.
Nice. Inaabangan ko rin yang Betta kaso ubos din agad. Buti na mention mo na 35c lang sa likod, medyo weird nga but ok narin. Thanks sa input.
Kudos for featuring other bike vloggers 👍
informative and entertaining master! Keep it up!
Ang taas ng sense ng topic mo Sir. Thanks this.
solid! bike to work ako 34 km balikan gamit japanese bike and planning ako now na bumili gn bagong communter bike and choice ko po iyang sunpeed kepler :) Keep it up sir!

Ride safe at suaveng padyak lang lagi... Cheers!!!

Same tayo frameset paps! Goodluck sa build!
Galing ng review erp. 8k subs palang yun nung nag sub ako. Keep it up. Pa shout out na rin next vlog. Thanks. Ride safe.
Solid Sir. Taga Pagsanjan yan si Sir Erwin Leyros, then Sta. Cruz naman si Master Jay BikeCheckPH. Salamat po sa review.
Salamat sa review sa gravel bikes, i'm planning to get one in the near future pero medyo nagbago na isip ko since naka mtb naman ako haha.
Sayang ubos na yung shirt, suggestion lang sana magkaroon din ng mtb shorts na merch.
Bago ko gawing pera yung hardtail ko noon, na-upgrade ko siya into something na malapit sa gravelbike. Bago pa iyon lumabas ang gravelbikes.
Mainly sa kalsada kasi ako nagba-bike, at minsanang offroad. Pinalitan ko yung plato na 48-38-28 teeth, tapos yung cassette ng 11-38. Mabilis na rin siya sa kalsada na naisasabay ko na sa roadbikes, pero hindi aatras sa offroad.
After niya maging pera for financial concerns, lumabas naman yung gravel bike, tapos naisip ko na gravel bike na ang sunod ko'ng bibilhin kapag nakaraos na (malapit na). Mas sulit kasi ang specs niya para sa purpose ko: all-around bike: commute, minsanang long ride sa kalsada, minsanang roughroad. Lalagyan ko rin ng luggage rack kasi madalas ako ang may dala ng mga abubot kapag long rides. Bale, gravel bike yung magiging sulit para sa akin, isang average biker.
Yung setup rin ng karamihan ng mga gravel bikes, parang hindi ko na kailangang palitan. Yung luggage rack na lang at mudguards ang idadagdag ko para i-optimize siya bilang service most of the days.
paps another masterpiece ahh hehe keep on it paps
Kuya Good day po. Abangan ko po next video niyo. Lahat premise mo base from investigation nakatulong saken haha! Naliwanagan ako. May "hype" factor din tlga ang pagusbong ng gravel.
Learning a lot from you Unli Upgrade! MAy nabubuong masamang balak itong pag-iisip ko hahaha!
Thank you for making that decision for me. "Walang rason para bumili ang isang taong may Mountain Bike na, ng Gravel bike pa". Ngayon, malinaw na. Ride safe, mate!
Yown new upload
Nice topic. Sakto sa sitwasyon. Question kang sa frame na na Sunpeed Kepler. Compatible kaya ang MTB groupset dyan? Hopefully masagot nyo.
Thanks! More vids. :)
Worth the wait Content😅😁🚴♂️
LAKAS MO TLAGA SIR UNLI UPGRADE! PAG IKAW GUMAWA NANG VIDEO DI AKO NAUUMAY MAGHINTAY NANG VIDEO KAHIT ANTAGAL TALAGA WAHAHAHA MORE POWERS AND VIDEOS TO COME
Sunpeed user ako... at newly subscriber mo... more power boss!!! abangan ko nxt build bike mo!
keep it up Paps..wait namin part 2..baka pwede na ding masama sa review yung Charon Sunpeed..Thanks
25 years ago gravel bikes were just MTBs.
Cguro isa sa advantage din ng gravel bike sa mtb if sa road gagamitin ay sa handlebar nito, mas madaling isingit singit kagaya sa road bike dahil di gaanong malawak ang sakop nito. Pangit din kasi sa mtb yung maiksi yung handlebar parang mahirap pagdating sa steering.
First time ko po sa channel nyu at natuwa po ako sa boses mo. Unique at fresh sa pandinig ko... Thanks for the content.👍👍👍... Napapaisip tuloy ako kung gravel bike ba or 29er na mtb ang pag iipunan ko. 😄😄😄
Pre, sa ibang bansa dami gravel roads. Depende sa type ng gravel road, may advantages gravel bike vs xc bike. Sa pinas wala masyodong ganitong trails/ roads. In short, di pang pinas ang gravel bike.
Great content btw 😊
Nice editing sir, galing din ng investigation mo hahaha! RS lagi 🤙
Love your contents paps 🤘🏽
Just subscribed to help you bro. No skipping of ads 👌
Looking forward sa gravel bike project mo na yan paps.....
