Great video. Good review and feedback. Cheers mate

I like it. I take things like biking and skiing as a chance to throw some bold colours on. Express yourself a bit. Not every day you get to wear BRIGHT red shoes. Also with your grey bike, they stand out even more.. like why not, it's fun. They look cool. And your outfit isn't Powerrangery at all. If anything it's mild for road cycling colours! I might get these Fizik PS Aeroweave pink things haha, have a look.

Exactly my thoughts! And hey bright shoes may be harder to clean but keep you safer when there are cars around!

Adidas dropped Ye for telling the truth, gives millions of dollars to ADL, and utilizes Israeli manufacturing contractors. So I am not willing to buy anything Adidas.

You don’t need those shoes nor the power ranger outfit

@SamuelBarrettBikes Ай бұрын

I don’t need them but if you watched the video the review says I like them but they aren’t for everyone, guess you are someone who isn’t a fan of the looks and that’s all good!

Unless the "pressure sensor" you were on at that light is a lot different than normal, it's actually an induction loop. It doesn't have anything to do with weight or pressure, it works by sensing a change in the electromagnetic field generated by the coil of wire buried in the asphalt. Large masses of ferrous metal or very strong magnets will trip the sensor. So unless that sensor is tuned to bike-sized objects and you're riding a steel bike, it won't get triggered by your bike. Just trying to clear up a common misconception!

There you go! so it is right for me to just wait for a car to come along and if not go on the path haha, but that is genuinely interesting thank you!

I think what you've concluded here is likely true, certainly for me in any case. I upgraded to some handbuilt 37 mm deep carbon road wheels, and with 28 mm tyres they were incredibly uncomfortable over long distances. Same spokes, hubs and tyres, but on a mid range aluminium rim are way better and weigh virtually the same, but perhaps slightly less aero. Likewise, I'm less worried about their durability and are easily replaced if they do get damaged. Glad to see the sun is shining your end. It's very wet here in the UK and has been like it for months 😢!

Exactly! Think there are time and places for both! I’m a bit of a bike snob so will always love deep carbon wheels but sometimes less thought and more practicality is actually better!

Hi Samuel Did you have to modify the rear Mac? To accept the 36 cassette I was trying to fit a 36 cassette to my sram force but I couldn’t get it to work properly Be great if you let me know many thanks

@SamuelBarrettBikes 2 ай бұрын

Hi there! I have the 2xmid-length rear mech and it actually went across without issues, if I am in small-small there is a quite loose chain (even more pronounced because of the big cassette going down to 11-36 when it can fit 52-36 is a big jump, but apart from the chain moving when in large gears on potholed roads haven't had any issues with the setup, was the issue from reach or just getting it to run smoothly?

Nice video mate, considering buying this exact model and colour, how does it compare to other aero bikes you’ve had? Is the ride super hard?

@SamuelBarrettBikes 2 ай бұрын

Yeah amazing bike, it is relatively stiff front but I think replacing my deda stem with the integrated stem and bars would relieve this issue, Recently was riding the Canyon Aeroad and I would say the koppenberg is similar feeling of stiffness to the CFR but the Flanders I would say stretches out a little further and surprisingly sits in a more aggressive position, In general very nice fast bike but it starts getting quite aggressive for 100+km rides as all stiff aero bikes will
