    I bought this bike two weeks ago. It's my first bike and my entry into the world of cycling. I've loved all 50 or so miles that I've put on it so far. Can't wait for more!

    I bought this last month for fitness because gyms are closed right now. Rode it for ~ 100 miles so far. The max being 25 miles in a single ride. No discomfort. Very nimble and light weight.

    Thank you for the informative review. I appreciate you explaining the geometry and riding position and how this one compares to the 2.0. I think the biggest value of brands like Specialized is the proper assembly and support offered by the local bike shops that sell them.

    • @TheBicycleRider
      @TheBicycleRider  4 роки тому +2

      Yes it is refreshing that a brand like specialized put so much research and development into their bikes such as the Sirrus 1.0 and 2.0 and still sell them at a good value. I totally agree with the fact that part of the value is always backing them up by a skilled level builder at a bicycle shop This is so important to make assembly adjustments and fit adjustments right in the store by someone who is a skilled worker. I have seen the other side of the coin many times and it's just not worth it. Pay a little bit more for a name brand bike and the support of the local bicycle shop and you will walk away a happy customer. Thank you for your valuable, it is right on spot!

    Finally a video of the Sirrus 1.0 2020 model. I put a deposit on this bike waiting for delivery assembly pick up. I see the difference from this and the 2.0 As a beginner I can go without the upgraded brakes the upgraded wheels and gearset. I think the 1.0 is the perfect starter bike. Down the road hold on to it when I upgrade have around as a spare for a group ride.

    • @TheBicycleRider
      @TheBicycleRider  4 роки тому +1

      I'm definitely going to agree with you on the 1.0 It is a fantastic bike for the beginner and advanced rider looking for performance on a budget. The frame set is absolutely awesome and with the components they expect on the 1.0 for the price you can't go wrong This bike is really fast around town and fun to ride plus a rock solid build that should give you lasting performance for the long haul. Have fun on your 1.0 it's a great bike!

      Well thank you for your comment! We're really tried to do our best with these videos although I'm not a total professional at this I'm a much better bicycle rider and have spent a lot of time in the saddle. I can understand how the stock saddle might seem a little hard at first sometimes it could be your sit bones are different size than what the saddle was made for. Please go buy a local bicycle shop and see if they can help you get a more comfortable saddle. I know we do this in our shop and are always glad to have them. Thank you

    @junboo8730 4 роки тому +3

    One of my friends broke his derailleur. We made the bike fix until we got out of the trails. He rode better without shifting than shifting. Sometimes this 3 by just mess your mind. People should ask their local bike shop to do them 1 by. Less weight and more reliable system.
    Right now in one of the longest segment where I ride I have the number 2 record in Strava. The other bikes are road bikes that are lighter and with more gears. I’m number 2 with my X10 running 45 psi on back and 40 on front. A 1 by gravel bike against road bikes. Mind is the most powerful thing.
    All time I’m 32 on that segment. I will need a 1 by road bike with a big cassette to make the top 20 ha.

    • @TheBicycleRider
      @TheBicycleRider  4 роки тому

      Yes June Boo I have to agree sometimes a 3 x up front complicate things especially if you live in an area that doesn't have big climbing. Most bikes are easily convertible to a one x And you are correct It does save weight. Some of the lower tiered group sets still run a 3x which for everyday riding is definitely okay You just have to understand how to manipulate the gears so you don't cross chain. In your situation where you are pushing the limits of performance it's awesome to see how a few small modifications really enhance the performance. Keep pushing hard and I'm glad you understand a lot of it is in the mind. We like your style man and thank you for supporting the channel and you're valuable comments!

    What do you mean by the longer top tube keeps your lungs working? Another great video!

    • @TheBicycleRider
      @TheBicycleRider  4 роки тому +10

      Good question! The longer top tube allows the torso to be in a more natural position to not crunch the lungs. In short this means that the longest can breathe without constriction of a shorter top tube that bends the torso and does not allow the lungs to do what they need to do. The longer top tube allows the body to be in a more natural position. I definitely see a lot of bikes come into the shop that do not incorporate longer top tubes and I see the overall position of the riders not optimized for performance. This sets up the rider to fail right from the start. If you can't breathe it's hard to keep up with others breathing is so important to make the muscles work correctly It also helps the brain tell you you're in the right position to keep pushing the limits of performance that you're capable of. Very good question thank you for asking

    I just got this bike - I'm new to cycling and was wondering if there's any upgrades to this bike that you would recommend over time? Can the rim brakes be replaced with disc brakes etc?

    • @TheBicycleRider
      @TheBicycleRider  4 роки тому

      I would say that they built this bike really good for the price If you're looking at upgrades try a nice pair of flat pedals with good bearings something like the crank brothers. The disc brake upgrade is just not worth it The frame itself is set up for rim brakesthen it would be a complicated upgrade It would probably cost as much as the bike. The 1.0 is a great bike as it sits.

    Hi again, other than the brakes, is this bike really any different than the 2.0? Here in Canada the 1.0 is $680 and the 2.0 $850. Does the 2.0 justify the price in your opinion? I’d be using the bike for road and street riding, fitness and commuting. Lastly, I’m 6’. Should I go for a XL? I don’t want to feel cramped. Thanks!

      There are a few small differences between the 1.0 and 2.0 but yes you nailed it the brakes are the biggest difference there's also some component differences in the gears and derailers The 1.0 was solid with a 2.0 definitely elevates the game. Good luck with their new bike and please let us know how you like it in the long term I know we love ours!

    TheBicycleRider watching this video and your review of the crossroad 1.0, it has become difficult to decide which one to purchase. Help!

    • @TheBicycleRider
      @TheBicycleRider  4 роки тому +2

      Hi Jonathan Yes this is a hard decision cuz both bikes are awesome! I would have to ask you how flexible you are and what type of riding do you want to do most. The crossroads is definitely more comfortable and still very capable but the 1.0 is really a performer but does put you in a more aggressive position. The seat on the crossroads is wider and more comfortable but the 1.0 let you move around for quick decisions on the bike. Great choices on either just depending on your personal riding style. They're selling out quickly so make your decision fast before they're gone.

      So far I have not installed fenders on the Sirrus but that is a project that I will be undertaking soon It looks like there's plenty of room for a bigger tire and of course rack mounts galore I will be working on stuffing some bigger tires inside this frame but looks like there's plenty of room. If you beat me to it please let us know how it goes Also send us a picture of your bike with the rack This is a very versatile bike so I would love to see one built up to carry heavy and keep dry during commutes.

      It's a good entry level bike for every day riding on hard surfaces.

    It has the wank staggered top tube and seat stay. As horrible as curved screens on phones. Triple chainrings 😂

    It's not an Atlas it's an ALTUS rear derailleur. I understand that it's difficult to read it upside down and backward. :) Hahaha
    I understand that it's a 3X7. Are you able to mention the number of teeth like 28/38/48t
    And 12-28t ? Or something like that ?
    The scale says 26lb and 4oz
    That's not the same as 26.4 lbs

    This bike is the biggest P.O.S. DO NOT BUY. You will constantly be replacing inner tubes and rims. They bend too easily and are expensive to replace.

      Hello,
      Do you get pinch flats? Are the spokes correctly tension-ed?
