The only reason the cycling world is against the bianchi is because it isn't all celeste or not traditional. The specilamizma is just that and arkea rides both frames. No way is it ugliest vs that colnago. Brand name is why everyone is going nuts for that new frame. If it had a Chinese brand on it. It would be voted worst bike of the year.
I ride a Giant Propel and it’s the best I’ve had. I previously rode Cannondale Suoer6 Evo, love them both. For your review, I wish I could have the EF Cannondale paint job on the Giant Propel, but since function out ranks looks, I vote Giant!
The Look is much better looking, and that's just one of them. Others that look like the real deal (and better looking than that boring Factor) are Canyon, Giant, Specialized and Cervelo.
That was good fun way of reviewing those super-bikes.....and you almost got it right! Cannondale and should-have-been Propel for the top two (although the Merida is also really nice!). Ultimate winner would be errr just the Cann by a whisker......except none are as nice as a specced-up spotless Mark1 version of a Spesh Venge, such as the one I've just acquired for £400 (plus a further £600 for nicer wheels) !!
Unpopular opinion: I actually like the Bianchi Oltre RC design, it's edgy, it's different, it breaks the typical mold of an aero bike. It's not perfect but it's underrated. The Cervelo S5 and the new Y1RS has controversial design choices, but those are the bikes I really think catches my eye
Campag should take note. They used to make the premium groupset to have. There was nothing more premium than their components. Now bikes are actually not picked because they use Campag groups which are objectively worse than Shimano while costing as much as an entire bike...
I honestly thing the SL8 is one of the worst looking bikes in the tour. It feel fairly confident that Specialized throw every bike reviewing channel a bunch on cash every year. No one has ever said how flexy the bike is to ride, but it really is.
Specialized probably spend the least with media out of most of the brands to be honest, of course everyone is entitled to their own opinion but we're sticking with ours
The RC logo on the NDS on a Bianchi ruins it immediately, especially as the cameras are predominantly on the NDS of cyclists. What are Colnago doing, weird gravel / road hybrid MTB
Your literally just talking about paint jobs, I might as well ask my wife which ones she likes the look of. I mean you could have a proper conversation about the frames, the bars, the wheels ...anything other than just whether it looks pretty coloured.
Had an Ostro, wasn’t great. Not as light as advertised, front end wasn’t that responsive. Stiff for sure but wasn’t in the same universe as the SL8. Good looking but really overrated bike.

The Look with the campy group set for me
Me too hands down.
100%

I like the Bianchi. It’s funny they showed it on the non-drive-side with Reparto Corse writing instead of the main Bianchi logo side.

Factor Ostro best looking bike hands down

Merida Reacto all in
We need BMC back in the WorldTour.
Agreed Teammachine R🤙
That Lidl Trek paint job is offensive to the eyes.
SCOTT FOIL Q36.5!!
I own that bianchi. When you ride it and actually look at it. You might feel different. But based just off a photo. I can see your answers.
Can you tell us how you feel about it? Is it true the handlebars can break easier?

FDJ Women are riding Tarmac SL8s in '25 vs Men on Wilier
Giant (Jayco) is spectacular 👍

This is great
Best bike i've seen for 2025 is the new Cipollini - pity it isn't in the Tour....stunning machine !
The new 2025 Cipollini is just like you . . . BORING!
@@savagepro9060 ha
I knew the result before watching the video :-)
We're an open book!
Look 795 al the way. No contest
Will it take an Ortlieb QR Rear Rack ?
pinarello is my dream bike :)))
Campag should take note. They used to make the premium groupset to have. There was nothing more premium than their components. Now bikes are actually not picked because they use Campag groups which are objectively worse than Shimano while costing as much as an entire bike...
It is beautiful though
Giant and Merida for the win!
Not bad choices but for me is Sava Deck Model Hawkeye F20 in white colours!
Cannondale for me!
Pinarello🎉🎉
The older dude reminds me of mads mikkelsen’s character in casino royale 😅😅

Dogma the best 😍😍
funny you guys did not notice the new unreleased 2025 redesigned Ares shoes used by Quickstep !
Whatever bike Pog happens to be on is the best bike. As in fastest…namsayin’….
its the best rider then the bike!! comments show many of their best bike!!
Cube 🎉
if it were allowed to ride the Y1RS with Tadej's WC paint job. that 100%
That isn't the correct colourway for the 2025 IPT Factor Ostro VAM. IMO the 2025 is a big improvement for the team colourway.
cannondale system6 update this year?
Looks unlikely :( We agree it's getting on a bit but Cannondale have previously said 2026 at the earliest
The lidl paint scheme is very close to the look from cofidis
So you are rating colourways, not bikes?
The RC logo on the NDS on a Bianchi ruins it immediately, especially as the cameras are predominantly on the NDS of cyclists. What are Colnago doing, weird gravel / road hybrid MTB
Giant Propel no doubt , S work second choice
Can't go wrong either way 🤔
Cannondale "Isn't she pretty, pretty in pink".
Where is the Scott foil?
Not in the World Tour anymore!
Dogma with aero socks - this will together give you an extra 3km/hr over the standard high end competition.

No way that absolute dog LOOK beat the Cube...criminal
Trek= 4yr old...look=classic. Very similar paints
Had an Ostro, wasn’t great. Not as light as advertised, front end wasn’t that responsive. Stiff for sure but wasn’t in the same universe as the SL8. Good looking but really overrated bike.
The Look over the Cube in pure performance terms is sacrilege
The Looks aesthetics saved its bacon there!
Never been a fan of Look bikes
Love this!
I demand a recount on behalf of the Ostro VAM 😅
Good looking bike, boring paint job? We much prefer the regular paint jobs available on the website
Sigh, can’t even argue. Fair…
Colnago first, Pinarello second!
Yeah, BMC Teammachine R is missing
We wish it was in the world tour too! Cool bike!
Cannondale!
7:53 the hand
cervelo s5 all the way
Not with cervelo's trash qc
BMC Teammachine R
Lidl Trek has just copied the look paint scheme only on a black bike!
SL8 is a horrible looking bike. I don't care how much the marketing budget is, it's not aesthetically pleasing at all.
Jigsaw at 5:10
madone g7
Gen8 all the way
@ no way
Matt Brett looks a lot like Jack Luke of Bike Radar!
You mean Jack Luke looks like Mat Brett, imitation is the highest form of flattery
@@roadcc How about "Jack LUKES a lot like Mat"?
Уберите это уродство испоганить такую кольнагу .

Stop living in the past. It's quite pathetic
Imagine not accepting that disc brakes are better in 2025.
Do you also eat your meals without cooking them and use rotary phone to make calls?
@@dainiusvysniauskas2049 Yes! I eat raw food. And?
@@pigupigu it's not pathetic, it's nostalgic, take your disc brake funds, and rather, invest in some English remedy classes!
Charisma of a house brick these two.💤 Nice bikes though. 😂
