*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 bought this last week after checking this video. Thanx. Feeling of ride was really light and comfortable than expected. What an Excellent silver and brown combination appearance it was!!
Thanks a lot for the review. That color scheme got me. I ordered mine 2 weeks ago and I'll get it only in March. That will be my first road bike. Last year, my girlfriend and I did numerous 100 km + runs with super heavy hybrid bikes. I hope it will make a very noticeable difference. It's not expensive but for me it is a lot of money and couldn't afford more. Can't wait for spring to come! Thanks again.
thats awesome, where did you order it from and what size I think I have 3 of them in stockk in 54 56 and 58 if your around the area gfive me an email gcperformanceyt@gmail.com
Wow, i've never seen that chrome color before. I like it. People, unless you are racing at a high level, don't worry about the extra 3-4 pounds extra weight of these budget bikes. The speed difference between this and the $5K bikes is tiny when analyzed with a stopwatch over the duration of a ride. Comfort should be most important factor for most riders.
I agree, I'm still riding my entry level bike for almost 7 years, nice aluminum frame but I upgraded the wheels to zipp 404s and it flies. The rest is fitness and what your goals are. That being said, I'm saving up to build a dream super bike... Yolo you know? XD
Exactly if it makes you happy, buyyyy it. Majority of things I buy in life don’t make sense but it makes me happy at thag moment, like a vacation for a week
Really nice color schemes, the name tags are more settling. I have a 2012 speedster with 28cm schwble and alex rim. Durable as hell. But ride feels heavy, really heavy.
I really enjoy the love you're giving to the entry level bikes. I find them more interesting to watch as I'm pretty sure everybody is tired (not really but you know what I mean) of seeing the mostly similar spec'ed premium super bikes. Also, why do shops keep the clear plastic disc behind the cassette?
Yea I enjoy them too because all of us at one point rode this bikes and this gives us the opportunity to suggest a bike to a friend that we have been trying to get into riding
That plastic disc protects the spokes when the chain overshifts. Snobs will tell you to take it off because it looks dorky but don't remove it. I regrettably caved to peer pressure and have removed some of my clear discs only to have the wheel damaged from an overshift. I don't use the discs on my road bikes but keep them on my mtb bikes.
@@TC-hl1ws naw because I can adjust it to the point for sure its not going in there but obvi if you hit it against something then yea its oging into the spokles
GC Performance Exactly! That’s why I run them on my mtb’s. The derailleur gets smacked during a ride, shiftings still seems to work but Wham, the chain over shifts into the spokes of your 1k carbon rear wheel.
Really nice frameset, would be a good base to build a 105 equipped winter bike. The bottom bracket is not square tapered for anyone looking at buying this bike, it’s proprietary to Shimano and called octolink.
I love the colour scheme. I have just pre-ordered a 2021 Speedster 10 disk. It is a shame we have to wait months to get a bike. Thanks covid. I am hoping it turns out nice. If you come across a Speedster 10 or 10 disk, could you do a review?
The Scott Bikes are under rated, I have a Scott Speedster 30 2012 model which I Love, and I am going to turn it into a "Super Bike" The only original Parts will be the frame (of course, the fork which will be trimmed and the seat post will be trimmed as well) The Upgrades as as followed Fizik Arione Saddle Integrated Carbon Fiber Cockpit Bar Tape Carbon Rims Conti GP500 Latex TubesX2 Ultegra R8000 Shifters Ultegra R8000 Crank Ultegra R8000 front derailleur+adapter Ultegra R8000 rear derailleur Ultegra R8000 cassette quick release skewer Light weight Ultegra R8000 Pedals KCM Chain 11 Speed Ultegra R8000 Brakes+Brake Pads SwissStop FlashPro Black Prince Brake Pads Ultegra R8000 Bottom Bracket Shift cables Brake cables Shift Cable Housing Brake Cable Housing stem cap (Carbon) Bar End Plug (Carbon)
I have the same bike and just love it! I intend to do the same but step by step, most likely starting off with an integrated carbon cockpit and carbon seat post. I would love to change the tires from 23mm to 28mm but I suppose there isn't enough clearance for that on the speedster am I right?
Great review, I have never seen the chrome type finish before. I have a scott dealer 30 min away. Going to check them out later today. Looks like just what I need.
I like this bike just concerned with the rim brakes and wondering if it’s worth it to spend $600 more just for hydraulic disc brakes on the speedster gravel 30
The bike look nice with this color, i belevie that speedster 10 disc 2021 model comes with same color, its true? Waiting for speedster 20s review too. Thanks!
not sure if anyone gives a damn but if you are bored like me atm then you can watch pretty much all the latest series on InstaFlixxer. I've been binge watching with my gf for the last few months :)
Thanks a lot for the review, I would like to know what updates you would make to it...?? I am contemplating upgrading the groupset for an Ultegra and buying vision Team 35 wheels... currently, it has a Tiagra groupset... I would like to know your recommendations. Thank you
You said the Shimano derailer model was a bad idea. Why is that? Looking at buying a used model I wanna make sure I don’t buy junk. Never bought a road bike before
I was just wondering if you could do a review between the specialized allez E5 and the specialized allez E5 sport because there is only a $200 difference and I just wanted to know if it was worth the upgrade thanks my brother
@@stevegelman7838 of course I can and too make a long story short, I would say no you dont need to because the only difference is the components and you get like one mroe gear in the rear... its not that big of deal unless you really like a color in the sport model then I would pay the 200 just for that but other then that..... its not a performance boost at all the components arnt going to make you go faster
Hi thanks for the review !!! Got mine few weeks ago and now looking for an upgrade : upgrade wheel or get it to a shimano 105 ? Whats would you recommend ? About changing the wheel what would you recommend ? Thanks for your help
I'd replace the brakes with black 105s, then wheels. The Sora shifters, crank, derailluers are pretty good. Soras are the top of the low-end Shimano, 105s are at the bottom of the high-end. I'd keep the Sora and replace the brakes (with 105s) and the wheels.
I'm thinking of buying this bike as I live near a a beach bike path, and my current beach cruiser bike just doesn't cut it. Would you recommend this as an entry level model bike for someone getting into regular riding?
I am 1.79 cm and ride a speedster 10 size 54 (M). It probably depend more on the length of your legs. I am relatively short legs for my height (81 cm from ground to junk). If you have longer legs, but shorter torso, maybe the 56 L is better?
I'm 5'4 and ride a xs addict rc and it fits perfect. My friend who is also 5'4 got this exact speedster in s and it looks huge on him and the shop had to change the stem to a smaller one to fit him
@@luxpall its not bad bad, but I would like to have a better spindle crank on there for the price a one peice spindal would give you better power transfer

ahhh is it?? i jsut thought it was squared tapered given the price point, but same thing it would be changed if someone wanted to upgrade
That’s a nice looking saddle. It would match with my tires sidewalls.

Great review, I have never seen the chrome type finish before. I have a scott dealer 30 min away. Going to check them out later today. Looks like just what I need.
Could you let me know what the difference is between the 20 and the 30? Is it speed or gears?
Dig these overviews, super helpful 👍
Thanks so much for checking it out 😁
Nice bike and video...Which size should I go for height of around 177 cms
thanks I would say 52 size small
I like this bike just concerned with the rim brakes and wondering if it’s worth it to spend $600 more just for hydraulic disc brakes on the speedster gravel 30
your call, the rim brakes wont hinder you in anyway just the disc brakes will give you the better stoppiung power
The grey chrome paint is really nice. Could you please review Felt fr advanced with 105.
i will try
The bike look nice with this color, i belevie that speedster 10 disc 2021 model comes with same color, its true? Waiting for speedster 20s review too. Thanks!

Hi ! I am a 5 foot 5 woman. I am planning on buying this bike as my first road bike. I was wondering, would you recommand the small or xsmall ?
I would go extra small if you can find one
The scott speedster 30 2013 bike weighs a pound lighter then then these models. What is the reason for this?
Idk maybe the wider tires and heavier rims now a days everything is about comfort so they sacrifice a little weight for comfort
@@GCPerformance18 That makes alot of sense thanks.
You said the Shimano derailer model was a bad idea. Why is that? Looking at buying a used model I wanna make sure I don’t buy junk. Never bought a road bike before
I think the group I was talking about shimano in general is not bad and plus this group too isnt bad but there is better out there fo rmore money
Great review, performance-wise would you save this bike is as fast as the specialized allez E5?
Yes this would be a similar bike model to the Allez probably more comfortable because they come with a 700x28 tire

of coursde and it has wide enough tires to take it a little off the road like onto sidewalks without worrying about damaging it
How does the speedster compare to the addict gravel bikes?
it is more aimed towards road riding with less durable components
Doing great.. mix it up. Entry to full blow experience. Give your knowledge about the bike .
Thanks so much I appreciate it
Hi! Can this bike be converted to gravel? What is the maximum tire width that will go in?
I think a 30c but no you cant
This bike can be used for gravel if i change the tires?
yes just make them biger like 30mm
Hello! What is the maximum tire width that will go in?
do you think i would be able to fit a 32cc gravel tire on this bike? or do you think a 30cc would be the biggest?
I would say 30 but maybe 32 dpeending on the tire
@@GCPerformance18 just confirmed it myself!i just fitted 32c Gravelking SS+ tires to my wifes extra-small speedster 30 frame!
This bike or Allez Sport 2021?
Sport!!
@@GCPerformance18 even if they both have sora and allez is more expensive?
GC performance.. why Allez. Its more expensive.
Do you know how is the weight of these wheels?
Are those schwalbe wheels tubeless or clincher wheels?
clincher
Would you say size 54 M or 56 L for a 1.79 cm guy? Thanks.
I am 1.79 cm and ride a speedster 10 size 54 (M). It probably depend more on the length of your legs. I am relatively short legs for my height (81 cm from ground to junk). If you have longer legs, but shorter torso, maybe the 56 L is better?
@@Duffstorama Thanks a lot.I think its gonna be size M, seems like the best fit.
I'm about 5'5 should I go with the XS or S frame?
I would go small
I'm 5'4 and ride a xs addict rc and it fits perfect. My friend who is also 5'4 got this exact speedster in s and it looks huge on him and the shop had to change the stem to a smaller one to fit him
How long is that stem?
I think that bike was a 52cm so it was a 90mm
Tyre clearance..? Could it clear 30mm measured tyres?
yea it could
My height is 170 cm. Would a small (52) do for me?
yes it would
