The guy from Breadwinner nailed it. A bunch of us bought gravel bikes to ride on crappy roads, dirt roads, or to be able to hop a curb without worrying about it. Looks like a great bike. I need to go to this show next year.
These cats are amazing! Such incredible artisans. What vision. All these bicycles are amazing works by passionate inspired craftsman. Thanks JOM. +1 Excellent coverage.
Side note: seemed like almost all of the bikes you showcased in your video used sram groupsets. Did you find sram to be the most common overall at the event?
You're welcome... a lot more bikes to come. Dude, I have to juggle vacation from my regular job with what you see with GC. I do have a road trip coming up shortly, but it is likely to involve New England, and possibly part of Canada. I do want to return to Texas, I've ridden there several times, but need to revisit. Love Texas!!! Where do you reside?
5:56 They guy that won the Tour de France and the Giro d’Italia is using 165mm cranks. He is 176cm tall. I don’t think inseam necessarily corresponds to crank length.
@@darringrey4329 176cm is not short for Italy, or even the United States. Filippo Ganna certainly is not short, he is the same height as Johnathan Milan at 193cm. Tack riders have been using short cranks for a long time. I think it is only recently that shorter cranks are starting to be used on road bikes. Bernard Hinault used 172.5mm at 174cm. Marc Madiot used 180mm at 179cm. Some times Marco Pantani used 190mm at 172cm. Wacky stuff.🤷♂️
@@cjohnson3836 6:14 Thanks for your polite reply. 😀 Two people can have the same leg length but use different crank length. In general, there seems to be a move towards shorter cranks among professional road cyclists. The idea is that shorter cranks are more efficient. In a reply above, I listed some of the historical disparities.
The Baum stuff is just incredible, but the pricing is just ridiculously expensive- $9,145 for that DBM frame set! Who are they building these bikes for? Millionaires??? Big fan of Breadwinner, he’s making great bikes…
Ahearne makes cool things. Also like the Cherubim and Co-motion on display. Frankly this stuff is getting to Ti heavy. Not accessible unless you're a pensioner. Need to bring back more steel.
Check out the next installment, Builder Bikes D to M on the channel... you'll see plenty of steel in there, including some sweet bikes by Ira Ryan Cycles. Another installment to follow that one.

Thanks for stopping by the Co-Motion Cycles booth and chatting with Bob!
Thank you Dwan, and your personal bike... lovely!!!
@@Gang1955 Sorry, I don't understand your question.
That Baum drop bar mountain looks amazing

Thanks for doing a great job presenting all the builders
Thank you, there are more to come!
Riding 160mm Appleman cranks on a couple bikes and I love them
Definitely got to look into some shorter crank arms- I have a compromised knee from tearing ligaments in the past, and 175’s are just too much for it…
Thanks
This coverage of the show is the best yet. Very comprehensive. Thanks.
Thank you, more to come!
This series might just be the most comprehensive coverage of the show- well done, sir🤘
Thank you, more to come!
The mini-velo's are super neat, so many cool bikes these days. The Cherubim's up close must have been awesome.
Love those Co Motions!
Great reporting, thanks!
The yellow/black Baum bike looks sweet
Side note: seemed like almost all of the bikes you showcased in your video used sram groupsets.

It’s $11,009.41 USD….🫣
@@stevekelly6544 ouch! That's too much
Nice!!
Expected to see Bike Friday
They weren't terribly interested in being on video.
BTW, I expected a better comment. No thanks for our time, effort, not to mention expense of the trip, hotel, rental car, time off from my job etc.
7k for the Partingtons btw
Oh I know. I think that is up there with Lightweight?
Wood bike is incredible! Want one pretty bad 😮
Celilo was unloading a former show bike for cheap at the show... $2,250 with complete GRX 1x build kit if I recall, and wheels.
@@GravelCyclist damn! Goin to site now 👍
Nice all those millionaire gravel bikes. The prices of these bikes are completely insane.
That's where you are possibly wrong. Some are less than say a 14K Specialized. I know what I would rather own.
cycling is a culture, some countries just don't have it yet....
Thanks for covering this! When are you coming to Texas and we can ride together?

Keep us posted as to when/where in New England. Drives are long bec so many roads are old cow paths or river roads but there’s a chance to find you
Gosh, almost an Aussie Invasion! Btw: try them shorter cranks, you won’t go back, if any doubt call Pogi.👍🏻
I went from 172.5 to 170 then to 165. Never going back. Just check your gearing - shorter cranks need easier gearing.
Id love to know tyre make model in the yellow buendia

He's short , I also note the fillipo ganna was on 165 at Olympic TT and he's 6ft3

For average rider, probably need 165-170, compared to current factory stock 170, 172.5 and 175
Inseam is a measure of leg length. You're essentially stating that leg length doesn't correspond to crank length. That's positively idiotic.

10:15 Alright tell us about your wheels, mate!
Hopefully the Partington blokes delivered the info you were looking for...
@@GravelCyclist Yea they did. It seemed like you waited to get to use your Australian accent. That's why I quoted you.

@@GravelCyclist will look forward to it
That Celilo looks nice; I wonder how much it weighs??
My bikes are generally pretty light--gravel bikes around 20 pounds. This one is a bit heavier (22.5) due to heavy derailleur and wide tires & rims
@@celilocycles6424 thanks for the info.
I don't think people realize how expensive and meticulously detailed Cherubim bikes are. Japanese made art
Partingtin wheels 10000k NZ!!!!!¡!!!¿???
Or... about $US 6,500 / $AU 9,500... rather pricey.
No rim brake bikes? Boring 😮
See next installment video for rim brakes... D to M
Thanks for the heads up 😃
Thanks
Thank you so much!!!! More to come!
