Appreciate the advice, I guess the phrase "embrace the suck" applies here quite well. Helps to know its not just me.

I bought this exact bike/colour after watching this review a number of times over. Surprisingly very little content on the 7.9 CF 2023. Can confirm it's a very capable bike.

Sick vid man, sick.😮

You're a strong human being and an inspiration for me

How does this hold up several years on? Still think it's a pretty bike

1 mistake is ur putting ur head up put ur head down

This looks a cool ride, is thin on Strava at all?

Scott is brilliant he gave me a bike fit and it was such a difference . I had issues with my back and knee. I can highly recommend him he solved these issues 👍👍

Is the super tuck faster than this? Or is this the super tuck? Lol

Love what he said about running technique. I used to run with my husky and she made me run right. Smaller gate and high cadence to keep it nice and smooth. She taught me so much. Gutted she has gotten a bit too old for it now.

Dont really believe in any of this. I've lost fat and gained power and muscle and gained power and fat and muscle at the same time and still gained power

Try it on a downhill skateboard 👍

Problem with road racing is different levels , many people want to try it but thought of turning up and getting dropped after just 5 miles to then lose 15% speed by cycling on your own etc this After an hour or so s journey there puts a lot of people off , closed circuit races are better attended for this very reason ….. think should be more slower races to encourage people to race , turning up on a 90km race never raced before and trying to hang on with constant attacks and averaging 43kph , kicked out the back then riding along on your own does not encourage people to give it a do

Sounds like a train 😅

Missing your vids Chris. Hopefully spring brings us all back to life!! Really appreciate all your time, honesty and expertise in cycling and also in life. You truly are an inspiration in so many ways Chris. I’m sure I speak for many of your followers too. Thanks again & have a great Spring.

This is Feock! I was only here yesterday

Ah. I can see now why you have the Portreath hill KOM! 💪😀👍

Cool 🎉

🎉

Que talla usas???? Cuales son tus medidas corporales??? Me ayudarias mucho con la decision de una Lapierre, me gusta mucho. Gracias

1000 will be your bike shop repair bill 💸

That looks great fun. Not the running part but the bike part😂. I’m definitely tempted to have a go with my lab

Chasing is one thing, keeping hold of it is another 😂

You could go faster with weight training and slightly different geometry. May wanna do more research.

Niiccee Chris !

Mental, I’m happy if I do 1000w for 6 seconds!

so he's the one who stole my KOM

dang daddy!!@

+1 for ebikes. Use mine for 60 mile round trip commute - can keep HR in Zone 1 the whole way. Avoids commute junk miles.

Hi would this bike be suitable for the South downs way.

Im a hater #savechicg #yourpollutibg #notfinny #etcancellwd #mroopiw😊

thanks for the content ! One question: why not use the Lapierre Pulsium bike that is an "endurance" road for an ultracycling event ?
