    This video perfectly encapsulates the different phases of a bike ride: Warming up (not taking it seriously), Feeling good (picking up the pace), getting dropped 3:06 (self explanatory), goofing off 4:30 ( also self explanatory), getting dropped again 7:12 (Singing to stay motivated), and just enjoying the road! Great video!

    *Looked at a lot of options for getting my **Latest.Bike** . Great find in SAVA. Super light, nice components, really good value as it comes with many options only found in much higher priced bikes.*

    I just got to meet him recently and talked with him about racing and other things as well. He is really cool to hang out and chat with at local race. He is a great person and really happy i got a chance to meet him.

    As a filmmaker and an occasional bicycle rider, I love this series. I have to ask, what is your mic setup? The audio is always so clean with zero rub which has got to be hard to accomplish considering how active the talent is. Please share. Thank you!

  • @damskivitch
    @damskivitch 6 років тому +5

    Cool. One thing I noticed on this, and on another one of these I've watched too, is how still the Pro's bike is underneath them.

    • @SFelde
      @SFelde 6 років тому +2

      Adam Whalley hoods help a ton with leverage. Without them you have to really work with the bike to keep momentum. I’ll have hoods next time though :P

    • @forkayebee3831
      @forkayebee3831 6 років тому

      Cane Creek make good dummy hoods, I had them on my old track bike which I converted to a commuter. I recommend them if you don't wanna have dummy breaks

    • @timeslowingdown
      @timeslowingdown 6 років тому

      Why not use bullhorns?

    • @SFelde
      @SFelde 6 років тому +1

      Evan Pipta TJ was actually using my handlebars and hoods which was a last second thing. We weren’t aware his bike didn’t have hoods/brakes, so I just used his handlebars. As for bullhorns, I used those when I first started riding, but they limit you a lot once you start racing. Not too many bar positions, and you can’t get low enough for proper cornering. I do miss them for how comfy they are though- definitely a good handlebar to climb on 👍

    • @damskivitch
      @damskivitch 6 років тому +1

      Scott Piercefield wasn't a criticism, just something I noticed! My bike moves load underneath me, and I've got hoods! (brakes, and 1 gear)

  • @petka_
    @petka_ 6 років тому +1

    Just a reminder: don't do this unless you know what you are doing! And I'm not even talking about descending, which is understandable risk. I'm talking about going uphill on a low cadence - if you are unlucky with genetics or your body is not prepared yet, it can have irreversible (and bad) effect on your knees, even after a single ride. You won't be able to ride again in your life!

  • @TyBraek
    @TyBraek 6 років тому

    This is exactly why i rode a 48:22 gear ratio. I live in a place of just hills and my bike would be useless without it.

    hi: am I strange? I am a spinner who likes to peddle at 80 to 90 rpm. I can't enjoy a climb if I can't spin too well. I mean I can do a bit less rpm than 80, but 30???????? NO! that is going to wreck one's knees. Am I wrong? ????
