How well do you think Si will do at the Gravel World Series? 👇
16th Place 😊
He will cry and eat salt and vinegar crisps via his "dispenser".
"Cuts the mustard"... Don't give up your day job, Si.
Also great to see the Selle Italia Green-X saddle, I have one on my race bike as I wanted something shorter than my normal setup.
Universal derailleur hanger! Smart!! 7:17
Beautiful bike! Good Luck!
Nice to see Colnago competitive after moving someplace.
9:33 neat fillable gel pouches! +1 for precision nutrition for doing that
Love a yellow bike! My Specialized is yellow 💛
5:02 The 2x - that's what separates the men from the boys... Ɑ: :D
A more serious question: an 11-34T Ultegra cassette (CS-R8101-12) has HYPERGLIDE+ teeth. Does it offer a perceptible difference in shifting smoothness when compared with that 11-36T non-HG+ cassette (especially when combined with Di2)?
That is one lovely piece of equipment to ride 👌 like the color too. Best of luck.
Si's not got a bad job has he 🤣
Super nice
That bike is beaut!
Thanks for the video ...nice bike, very nice
Super nice?
I have that same saddle, it is good, it’s now on my adventure bike, a rigid Surly Krampus, but it came on my Niner RLT 9 Steel gravel bike, didn’t care for it on that, but for some reason it feels great on the Krampus. First time I’ve seen one mentioned in a bike video…..
Interesting! Perhaps the geometry on the surly is just right for that saddle? 🤷
Yeeee Man, i love Thiis yelow!! Great beautilfull bike.
One of my favorite colors!
That yellow 😍
@@gcntech surly used to do their amazing merino jersey/jacket in a really similar color. I wish they’d re-release that one. An ex stole mine. I’d re-buy it in a heartbeat.
yep that's a really nice bike👍
Some might say... super nice 😉
Simply beautiful. I like the more common spec‘s. Hope GRX825 will be working properly at race day.
Best of luck and happy racing.
Did you catch Si's race 👉ua-cam.com/video/e2rI5OKWqgg/v-deo.html
@@gcntech finally I did. Amazing performance of Si and the Colnago 🫶
very nice...lucky boy you
I've never used a wahoo but surprised they don't have a "share my location" feature like Garmin does. means one less phone. But that 'gram does need updating.
Cool looking bike! I love the color and topography accents
Anything not black is nice. I miss the steel lugged paint jobs of the past! Glad colors are coming back to premier brands. Black was pretty boring over past 8 years.
@@scott5088 my endurance bike is Ferrari red. I love it
Super cool right! Something special about yellow bikes 👌
great bike, which size are you riding?
No power meter pedals, as not on the crank/spider for the advert?
New bike day!!!
Is there any better day?
I believe Surly have a colour that's standard in their range very similar to this one - it's called 'drink more water'.
Very interested to hear your feedback on your tyre choice.
The bike looks so great 😍
Sweet bike…. 🚴🏼♂️🌬️
"Yours"? I think is on loan from Colnago.
Thanks Si , and crew...do you use frame protection on bikes like this ? $$$$
Maybe they do, but they get new bikes constantly so maybe not.
We love frame protectors! Especially for dream bikes like this 👉ua-cam.com/video/0ssQpvutWEQ/v-deo.html
Watched two long reviews of this bike now, still don't know what the logo on the non drive side looks like.
4:39 !
Colnago smashed it where Pinarello messed up - colour FTW
lol grevil f looks awesome and is compliant. This is too stiff for gravel
@@christophertan3195oh, so you’ve ridden both on gravel?
@@christophertan3195 I’m just referring to a bike Pinarello gave to Ollie in a video a while back - black with black writing …. Was a marketing disaster - couldn’t tell what it was
My acrylic paint comes in pouches like that gel pouch. Best not confuse the two
🤢
For awhile i was wondering if carbon footprint was a lightweight version of the more affordable aluminium footprint 🤭
What "Low pressure" are we talking about mate? I'm getting my new gravel bike today, I want to feel like Si on the trails...
This new Colnago looks to be basically a copy of the Cervelo Aspero which is half the price.
Shimano GRX wheels?? Do tell.
so you've had a great result, coming in 11th but you're also disqualified and not racing the gravel worlds because the rules (at least of the 3 UCI gravel world series races I have participated in) state that no outside communication is allowed. sharing your location with your film crew via strava beacon is that type of communication
3:18. Your front wheel is dished to far to the left.
Nice bike though.
Who are you sponsored by again? Oh that’s right. The company that gives you the most and blingiest schwag.
The green tech saddle is not comfortable on long distance and it breaks. It looks super nice and it's eco but it's not race worthy.
Who cares about eco?
@@DanBirasi there's a lot of greenwashing but everyone with a bit of intelligence cares.
Does it come with a hidden motor? Or does it apply to road versions only?
Frontwheel is out of center! 3:16
Might be to compensate for the asymmetrical forces from the disc brakes
No it's not.
*Might* be parallax error, the momentary frontal view of the top of the tyre and the fork crown is a panning shot, hard to tell whether it's exactly front-on, which is the only time you can really exactly tell?
@@vo2maximus177 You are correct. When the transition occurs the camera is already slightly right of centre. The shaded left hand side of the tyre, and the bit of crud stuck to it add to the illusion that the tyre is closer to the left hand fork leg.
You’d think that Colnago could sell bikes on reputation alone, but the number of paid promotional videos I’ve seen recently makes me wonder if they’re really as good as everyone seems to believe. Think I’ll stick to frame manufacturers that invest in bespoke design, fit and craftsmanship rather than marketing!
Why would you go racing with heavy components like that handlebar, stem, saddle, wheelset, etc?! Right, the bike is sponsored.
Best not to watch pro racing then (or even many amateurs), where all the bikes are sponsored.
If they weren't, racing wouldn't really exist.
Only rubish is this specific sadle. Time to change
I hope it doesn't crack and ruin your race.
pretty bland looking bike.
Pretty Bland comment. It’s a gravel bike, FFS.
Each to their own, I think it's beautiful.
