  • How is bike commuting by mountain bike? I'll be talking about some of the pros and cons of commuting by mtb, as well as the differences between mountain bike commuting and road bike commuting during my daily commute to work.
    Today my wife is trying out her new mountain bike on her bike commute to work for the first time. Although she's a daily bike commuter on her road bike and she's had this new bike for a while now, this is her first time using it on her commute.
    Because the bike was still brand new, she didn't want to use it on her commute at first, but after trying the MTB on her commute compared to the road bike, I think she's a big fan now.
    Let me know what you guys think as well in the comments! Is commuting by MTB better than a road bike or CX bike?

    Thuong is such a trooper for doing this commute almost daily for 5 years. I think she really liked doing it on the MTB compared to the road bike too :)

    Commuting by bike definitely keeps you fully immersed in the seasons. Commuting by car you’re in an air conditioned box and then when you get to work in an office it doesn’t feel like the time of year. In fact it’s usually the opposite. In summer it feels freezing and winter is stiflingly hot because they overcompensate with the AC.

    I love commuting on a hardtail. I feel like a kid trying to jump every curb and gap around town. Definitely makes the commute more fun than my road bike, but so much more tiring.

    Great video, Cruise. Your videos keep getting better and better. And loving the mountain bike you got for your wife. Also, looking forward to checking out your wife’s UA-cam walking channel. To both of you, keep up the phenomenal work, and so glad I found you both on here.

    The color coordination between Thuong's riding outfit is very fashionable and highly visible. Well done!

    Thank you for the tour. I enjoyed it. I felt I was riding on your handle bars and watching the scenary. I love how there are so many bike roads. You could paddle anywhere.

    Hey Man , I really like these videos of you both cycling around Town . I live in Greenwich SE London and used to commute to soho in central London on my bike, only around 7 miles each way but..... what a pain in the winter, my route took me mostly along the River Thames so lots to see and very historical but sooooo windy in winter. Some was great as there are lots of old pubs to stop off at !

    I always enjoy your channel. It is simply is realistic as to how most people ride and think about bikes and cycling.

    Thanks for the video. Every time I go to visit Beautiful Wife's family in Ise I'm surprised how fast the sun drops. On the other hand, a public holiday in Germany means just that: everything is closed except essential services which is nice: almost no traffic at all and everyone gets the day off.

    Before your videos I didn’t know anything about commuting in Japan. Now it feels as if I have cycled in Japan. Thank you both 😀

    Narration was excellent,Thuong's left turn signal and wave to other biker was nice. Cars turning left were scary. You both continue to be safe. :)

    I grew up in Saitama Ken in the 80's and 90's; cool to see these commuting videos of Japan...

    I’m always terrified of those , not sure what you can them, but the uncovered rain ditches in the side of the road. I always worry about falling in or my tire snagging it. They are like a foot deep. Lol. Great video. I love cocos currry!!
