Fun

This bag is a 20L. I have it.

No way in hell. LOL. Give it to someone 5'6".

so you have to stop peddling to change gears?

Excellent work.

🎉Love your work!! Keep up the great 👍 work!! 🎉🎉🎉

Thats a large Frame. May i ask how tall are you?

Thanks for sharing the ride with us. I gotta make this loop!

Nice, thank you for sharing! Can’t beat the Grand Canyon!

Forget the stupid chamois. Get yourself some proper biker shorts, underneath your stylish ones, if needed. It makes a HUGE difference. As for the bar, just rotate that stock one back a little. You won't get comfortable with your wrists angled forward.

I did Marcy in 1986. Started at South Meadow. It was an extremely warm day in September. 90+ degrees. I was in Stan Smith tennis shoes and otherwise unprepared. The next day, my feet were so swollen and sore, I couldn’t walk at all. But I did it.

Outstanding! I’m inspired to give this another shot.

Tom jones shelter is nice place to camp if you have a hammock cheers 🍻

Did you have to adjust the belt tension? I just bought one and it took a lot of force just to turn the crank until I lowered the belt tension. This is a heavy bike, it's a workout going uphill!

Prentiss great video! I am Adirondacker native. You chose an extremely difficult hike, so you must be great shape. Don't hike in the Adirondacks between late May to mid June. Our black flies will drive you crazy. I like your commentary. Is there a way you could show your progress on a map video? Showing the trail distance sign was a good idea. I wanted to see your progress which would it easier to understandable. Trying climbing down that granite side at the end of your video after a rain. OUCH! Thanks for your victory!

Реально крутой велосипед. Ничего лишнего. Особенно круто это ремённый привод.

Thanks brother, finally found a very honest review. Greeting from Thailand!

That looks like my REI trail 25 pack. I’m thinking of getting this one for work

Nice video - thanks

I was there last summer I did a couple of switchbacks and headed right back up LOL

Very nice review! Nice skills with the 2 lb :D If I were you, I'd downsize to size medium and bring your hands closer to your hips, would be a more effective setup. I'm 6'4 and use large as well, medium is just borderline for me, I can use it, but if I make a single error I trip up, so large is nicer for me. when I use large I can have my hands closer than yours, that's why I feel like medium is a nice size for you. can tie a not in your large and see :) no form critiique here by the way, just something to think about if you haven't. having hinds wider / closer is personal preference, but closer position and shorter rope is just more effective and feels better with the heavy ropes especially

I started out watching this video for bike review, new bike day on Wednesday and noticed your on my most frequented trail! D&R canal! I look forward to taking the Apollo bike packing across the US.

Awesome bike and awesome vid!

Ritchey Beacon bars? with the shorter stem you now have?

Dunkin The NE breakfast of champions 😄How's the Apollo treating you? I do lots of road but have friends tempting me to do some gravel. You ever come out West and we'll show you a good time in ColoRADo!

Did you replaced that bar for something different?

I have never seen anyone ride an Apollo 11 in city traffic with one hand on a camera and the other on a whole pizza.

I bought the donner dobud one for $35 because of flossy, and with custom EQ I think they be hard to beat for electronic music

I really like the format of you describing the bike while actually riding it and showing it from all angles

0:31 What other bike did you consider? There seems to be very few options, when it comes to gravel bikes with a beltdrive.

Do you use the app as well or just freestyle it?

Loved your commentary! Too bad it wasn’t a nicer day-you need to go back. 😊

Great video - planning on doing this one next month. Also, had to chuckle at how similar our youtube channel names are. If you ever make it up to Maine, reach out!

Yes! I hike all the time and constantly have songs popping in, especially near the summit.

Absolutely loved this video - hiking Mt. Marcy is on my to-do list, and I was taking notes the entire time you were talking! Wish I had found your channel sooner - looking forward to watching more. Thanks for posting this!

One heck of a rock slide! Good choice pushing thru!

Very cool

Great review. The hydraulics ruined it for me. I had enough hydraulics with 10 years on the flightline in the USAF. THANKS.

Hey Prentiss, nice review of a great bike. Thanks for telling us about the trail. I live in Connecticut and would make the trip for a nice 70 mile trail. I bought a Priority 600X and love it for all the reasons you like the Apollo. Great bikes at a decent price (compared to the competition). Thanks again and I subscribed to you channel. Have a great day, Steve

Hello. Just came up in your channel as I’m doing some research on the Apollo priority bike. I don’t know if you have seen the channel bikes beer and buses. But it’s a couple that’s doing an across the US bikepacking trip on the Apollo. Nice video

Do you still own this bike? I ask because I see you bought the Apollo.

If you're gonna do any winter hiking i'd recommend the Catskills. Theyre higher than the hudson highlands so the get more snow but they're not above treeline so it never gets very sketchy. Theyre also fairly well traveled and the main trails are almost always packed down withing a few days of any snowstorm. I grew up around there and honestly think they're easier to climb in the winter than in the summer with equally great views.

That is a nice place to ride I don't have any place like that except riding on a regular road

Great video!👍

How many hours was that

Hey u walked it yourself for u. I thinking I don't trust anyone to get there on time

How long did the whole thing take you from car to car? I’m thinking of climbing Marcy before doing Katahdin. Looking to see if I could squeeze the climb and 6 hour drive into one day.

Thanks for info on inexpensive hiking pole. Don’t have one. We’re gonna be there in about a month

Great video. Thank your for sharing❤

Real mfk runner!
