First Proper bike Gravel Bike ride on the Specialized Creo SL Evo. This time I wanted to push the bike beyond its battery range to see what would happen. I was surprised by the experience. This is a proper Gravel Bike it just happens to have a turbo pedal assist which makes it a great experience for many reasons. Lets test the this e Gravel bike to see how far she can go! - Спорт
Do you Instagram🤳?: bit.ly/DkleinIG
I do not....
I prefer my grams slow

The fact you can ride it without power is the game changer. My old Ebike was not compatible with being ridden sin gas and therefore had a very real range of 35 miles. You were then walking home, pushing a heavy bike.
E-bike cool and all... but can we talk about the gun bike hunting zombie apocalypse bike! 😳
I think that was earl scappoose
I think Ron said it nicely with not a question of if, but when. They get more people riding, which is a big plus for me.
yup - old people's bike. Nothing wrong with it.
This Bike was made for Dustin, honestly. Another Awesome episode with those crazy players. 😅🔥
You rule so much! Thanks for the good vibes.
@@EverythingsBeenDone 😊🙌
Great for filming... Until everyone else gets an ebike 🤔
Oh crap...your right LOL
I just bought a Creo and I love it. Did a 115 kms ride and 1,500m up recently and it was so easy and enjoyable. Great bike. When the motor isn't on it just glides.
15 years after getting back on a road bike at 50, three heart attacks later I have to keep my bpm to 126 max= dropped like a stone on the climbs in group rides, so.... a month ago I bought a Pinarello Dyodo which has the hub mounted emotion electric motor with the battery in the down tube - A GAME CHANGER!
This is so ffffff good for those who like to take pictures/videos of his friends and making awesome montage and b rolls. Awesome videos man, much love and support all the way from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Great to run into you all!
85 miles is 136 km, you had 163 km. I do appreciate the conversions though. And SICK bike!
Can’t wait to get my Turbo Creo SL Expert EVO on Saturday. Seems like not only you but any blogger testing the bike was absolutely stunned. Thanks for this great review! 👍🏻
I discovered your channel last summer and I have to say your videos are so entertaining. The music, the editing, you guys joking around. Much love from Germany!
Thanks so much!!
You guys are the best
. I love your passion for the bikes. I'm older then you guys but I still love to ride bikes. My baby is now a 2021 Domane HP ebike. Riding is so much fun, I don't fear long hills anymore
Great video...I've owned a Creo E bike for 2 years ... rides like a gem. Early in the season, lots of power..later in the season as I build endurance not so much. Love that I can do greater distance...it's a gem. thanks for the video
Dustin;
Only discovered your channel late last year. I’m hooked. Binge watching during Covid. Thanks “Player” 👍
It's pleasant to ear French. Generaly I don't understand every thing you say but today... it's the same. J'adore tes vidéos! Merci à toi et merci à ton ami Monsieur Orange.
Oh man DK! E-bikes are pretty amazing - not ready for one yet, but every borrowed ride is delightful! haha!!! My biggest hangup is that I do not want another thing to plug in- I try to be a minimalist. But I am not an e-bike hater, although I don't care for the throttle ones. Dig the vids dog. Cheers, Steve TTF
I totally understand where you are coming from!
Yes I am going to buy this bike after your review!!!
So cool. From Portland. Have ridden most of those roads but not all in one day. Just ordered my Creo SL Comp Carbon and I am stoked. Will swap to knobby tires when I start some trails.
Video is tops...period! Limited experience on e-bike for me means my opinion salt to taste, but my sentiments exactly. I’ve been thinking of getting on e-mtn bike for extending the range and helping me climb the grinders, but now it’s gonna happen!
What a great episode! The creo looks insane!
Ramble Gramble Rocket!
bike looks sweet! and another classic dklein episode! overall great experience haha
Absolutly Fantastic What A GREAT BIKE!!
Loved this video. Getting a Turbo Creo SL Expert EVO this weekend. Worry some friends will give me grief about buying an e-bike, but I hope I enjoy it as much as you did!
Thoroughly entertaining video. You get all the salient features of the bike covered in a milieu of fun cycling camaraderie that reminds me of many of the group rides I've had with my buddies over the years. I see that Portland is still just as wet as usual in the winter as it was back in the early 90's when I lived there. Neat logging roads and rural sections. Good tip on the Epic Rides app. Kudos to the video editor.
Thanks for that!
I live in the Bay Area and bought the Turbo Creo SL expert actually in Portland after test riding while on vacation. I love that bike. I adjusted the standard mode battery assist down to basically compensate for the weight of the bike. I use it in that mode for most long rides and climbing and can get better than rated battery life. It is so nice to bump up the power when facing long miles in head winds or just need a bit of help on a stretch of a long climb. Bottom line there is now no ride too steep or too long with this bike. It is also really comfortable and smooth riding bike.
Just got a Creo 2 and man, it is awesome.
You utilized it perfectly, A+ ebike form, color me a little jealous, maybe when they get a little more affordable
Im in northern california for a month, and have been (using) a Creo. everything he says about it is true, how can I go back home and ride my plane old Scott bike after this. Hands down my best experience on a road bike EVER!
Dope episode 🤘
G'day Dustin, that was a fun vid. I love the new E Bike.... Thank s for creating these great videos.
You rule!
Have one and they are absolutely fantastic. For all the reasons you state
Devin made the ride so colorful
Really entertraining! Thinking of getting one too
This crew is the total A-Team. I want to see you all in a Mission Impossible style movie, but on bikes. Dustin: charismatic leader. Doug: the muscle. Ron: the sexy one. Abe: good with knives. Sukho: the assassin. Devin: the wild card.
Omg I’m dying here! 🤣😂😭
This was a good one!
Thanks player!!
Have the Creo EVO Expert. Even though I'm not devastated after a long ride (50+ miles), I still get an awesome workout because (1) I don't have the power on all the time - only on hills, pretty much; and (2) I'm lugging a 30lb bike when I don't have the power on. Fun video!!
Epic ride!
Best-edited cycling content on UA-cam!!
Ebikes are absolutely fantastic for people with heart problems - my canyon grail-on gravel ebike has been a game changer for sure 👍🏼
Nice of your friends to let you ride along.
Magnifique Monsieur!
Love it....great show
Great video! Once again!
Thank you! Cheers!
Yeah. Love the Creo, tried an Expert Evo to ride with a faster group than usual, so much fun :)
Awesome!
Top video that, I like yer editing style 👍🏿
Great video, best cycle vlog on UA-cam. That bike is perfect for the working videographer. . Plus by not using the power you were pushing 30 plus pounds uphills. That’s a workout. The elevation in your rides is awesome. Thanks.
Couldn't agree more!
@@EverythingsBeenDone And the extra weight going downhill is awesome.
i’ve got a bmc alpinchallenge soooo much fun. no pwr ridin out get coffee sit around for a hour stiffen up at 59 years old then full pwr back in. fn amazing bike.
Epic Ride Weather finally getting some (more?) exposure :)
I had no idea! Figured it would help others to know about it!
that must feel great to feel like Peter Sagan
The best quote!!
Brilliant!
Awesome input, tired but not tired..😁. I see an ‘E ‘ in my future 😎👍🏼🍻
Fantastic bike
My wife has an ebike ordered, hopefully arriving in 2 months. Hers is more commuter style and weighs 45-50 lbs but she is stoked and a lot of your thoughts resonate with our experience test riding. She is hoping to commute 9-10 miles much quicker and ride with me at a faster pace.
Great video Dustin
Thanks 👍
Super cool to see it work so well for your shenanigans! It seemed like you talked more and were a bit more animated - prolly due to not having to work quite so hard!? Awesome vid, Dustin.
That Epic Rides app recco was 👌 ... thank you!
So, tell me about your fenders! We need to know more about all these!
Also amazing video as always. You're beast Dude!
Came for the E-bike. Stayed for the positivity.
That's definitely how an ebike should be used. I bought a Vado 4.0 last summer. And it's really been a game changer for me at 71 and not riding a bike since 1975. But it's dog heavy and a slug if you should lose the assistance. Yesterday at my LBS I was offered test ride on a Creo SL.
Holy moly!!! Such an amazing bike. Without assistance it's a great bike; even old farts can ride unassisted (such as myself). But when you turn it on, it's kinda subtle with power in lower level. Like you know it's there but not enough to feel guilty about using it and you can still get your workout but extend your personal range so much further.
And then there's second gear 🤣, the second power level, still somewhat subdued but definitely you know it's working. Great for cruising while exerting maybe half of your regular efforts. And finally turbo 😝. When you really need some assistance or just because you have it and want to feel the wind on your face.
What a machine. Now to figure out how I can afford one. 😳 Great video thanks. Subbed
Dustin they got you, crying shame.
To be fair the carving/floating chat was pretty interesting
you guys rock! i want to come along next time 🙂
this ride is dope
Man! Im all about the E-Bike. If it helps you get a bunch of rad shots then bring it on!
Edit: I also love when we get to see everyones snacks. Always love the bonus food content.
Sweet Vid!!!
Man I’m jealous, these rides look so fun. Just gotta get a gravel bike and get to the other side of the country.
I rode this route today, got home and now I get to recap it. I thought I saw a lot of tire tracks especially between the gates on wildcat mountain, musta been you guys!
I'm impressed with the way this thing is spec'd out and engineered. Great vid. The mandalorian bit in the last one was one of the funniest bits you've ever done. Glad you've moved on from the boring 5mph mtb vids.
What a bike I love it. Great ride video. 32lb that's my regular non-e-bike weight lol.
Liked and subbed , great review , just use the power on the climbs , I’d love the Creo SL EVO in sage green , saving hard , thanks from the uk
Dustin that was well cool and the bike is Mint! I need to start saving for one of these baby's without the wife finding out. Lol
As a native Oregonian who burnt out on most things Portland, you guys make me homesick and remind me of the good times and good people back home.
Having ridden the Creo, I agree. It's not a scooter, it's a bike, a real bike, an awesome bike. People think they are mopeds, or every time you ride it, it's automatically in Turbo mode, and that's just not the case, at all.
Phil! You have a solid perspective! I appreciate the good words!
looks like a fun gang. you just earned a subscriber sir ..
More videos about your Ebike please 👏👏
I have more coming!
Amazing video ... so good ... a little bit of everything (‘s been done 😉)
Thank you! 😃
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome....what we call 'Fit for Purpose'.....perfect for you DK....Im a bit concerned Ron would get alot of speeding tickets if he owned one!!
Lets get Ron and e bike and a good lawyer ;)
I run 27.5 to lower my Center of gravity and 29 for more roll-over and pedal clearance if I go off on singletrack
Sidenote: Considering I rode my 33+lb fat bike on a group-ride, I'd LOVE a 32lb E-Bike
I have the aluminum version. Never drained the battery on a single ride!! And i’ve done 2 centuries!
Considering that you'd only have to output another 30-40 watts to make up for the added weight of the Creo, you can program its level one (Eco) to output this amount (roughly 10% with a 40% response rate) and the battery reserve will be quite enough for the long ride. You program it using the free app, Specialized "Mission Control". If you added a "Range Extender" external battery you'll be able to easily complete the ride, with an amount to spare that could have been used for more output from the higher level (Sport) keeping Turbo at 100% for those times when you may need it (steep hills, wind).
By the way, you don't have to turn it off to get no power as there are FOUR (not three as you stated) selections of power. Just keep the top button pressed for a few seconds and the pedal power will be off but its internal power meter will still output to your bicycle computer.
Awesome!!!!!!!
If I like you...that is so awesome but if I somehow don't like you...that is also awesome. gots to say another highly enjoyable video and its my 3rd one that I have watched. I like your style mr Klein.
You rock!
@@EverythingsBeenDone hi dustin thanks for the reply. i don't really Instagram...I am what I would call social media shy. peace.
Today...day #2 on my Turbo Creo SL Carbon...one take away...there seems to be an optimum cadence to each power mode in order to max speed out for effort in...all good ;-)
DK you should’ve got the auxiliary battery that fits in the bottle cage. Gets you an additional 30 to 40 miles. No more range anxiety. I have the cheaper Turbo Vado SL which is the most versatile and fun bike I’ve ever owned. Works great for gravel, road, commute
Is that the flat bar version?
@@dand2334 yes it is. I have the Vado SL 5.0. Same battery and motor as the Creo
Nice, mostly a roadie, it is fun, started with an Orbea Gain, love it. mix on/off pwr, have never experienced a flat battery... even 60+ miles. Creo must be like an Orbea Gain on steroids, with at least another setting... or two. Me like!
You gotta try this thing!
Extra weight = you only slower 🤣All my bikes are 30+ lbs. gravel, fat and turbo Vado SL... and all are a blast. Great vid!
08:28 “Activate pizza” - that’s fucking hilarious 🤣🤣🤣 (+ a few replays)
I hope they give you ten of those! You sold me.
Player!
Christ, could you imagine having to spend a day with these guys?
He Keeps talking about the POWER.
Dude your funny as shit. Love your video’s
Hey great vid I’m looking For an e gravel bike here in U.K. Great trails there dudes and that french guy 🤪
It looks fun
So much fun...and crazy..plz make crazy the new normal just for a periode.
Welcome to the party. Absolutely amazing isn’t it? Just wait till you realize how strong it makes you feel when your analog bicycles… That’s the next revelation
Ohh boy I cant wait ;)
Dustin! Love what you do and how you film. I'm desperate to know what song you are playing in this video... Chain gang, chain gang.
perfect again
Best review of a ebike ever seen, i will buy this bike just because you can ride with no power on and turn on just when you need really.
Appreciate you bud!
@@EverythingsBeenDone if you come to alps near to Stelvio or Gavia give a call, i live there!
ebikes r rad too!
