thank you for the video, it's a shame we can't put subtitles

[@mnveloguy]

@@Thibauddeves normally KZbin automatically generates subtitles. I’m not sure why that did not happen for this video.

[@mnveloguy]

@@Thibauddeves I just checked. If you click the CC button it activates subtitles. The button at least on mobile is in the upper right hand corner of the screen.

Thank you for this comparison. I did however miss one piece of information that is important to me: audacity. Which velo is the most quiet one ond which one is the noiciest?

[@mnveloguy]

@@ericsandin3402 fiberglass usually runs quieter than carbon fiber. Urban and MK1 should be the same with 4More being a bit quieter.

[@ericsandin3402]

@@mnveloguy Thank you. Do you know any velo that is remarkably quiet, compared to all others? I remember having heard one of the newer models being quiet/better insulated, but don't remember which, unfortunately.

[@mnveloguy]

@@ericsandin3402 that would have to be the 4More. The Bülks aren’t bad, but I guess it depends on what your definition of quiet is. I did once measure the decibels in the Bülk with racehood at 15mph and got around 70db. No velomobile is whisper quiet. If you’re concerned about noise, it’s best to wear earplugs. I tried that once, but I found it very unnerving to ride that way because I’m used to being able to hear the feedback from the road and traffic.

[@ericsandin3402]

@@mnveloguy Thank you. I'm always using passive (no electricity) headphones while riding a road bike. Model "Windfree". They take away wind turbulence and makes it significantly easier to hear the cars. No point using them inside a race hood I guess. But without they would be a game changer if you haven't tried 'em.

[@danchaluejr]

Is there a size difference in the toe box area and also is there a width difference between the three?

[@mnveloguy]

@@danchaluejr no width difference, but there is an additional 2cm vertical space on the toe box with the 4More and Urban. I think I mentioned that, but maybe I forgot or it just got lost in the crush of information? It should be possible to fit larger feet, and for riders with more average shoe size, longer cranks. How long, I’m not sure yet.

[@rawfuturetv]

That's what we all have waited for! :) Really good work and good comparisons and explanations between the different types of the Bülk! I am really happy with Bülk Urban 4, but I think I am the last person in my size, who fits in there (194cm). Best regards from Hungary!

[@mnveloguy]

@@rawfuturetv thanks for watching. I look forward to seeing more Urban content from you as well.

[@sebastiandomagala9233]

I was baffled to hear that the closed Bülk offers more space for wieder front tyres. Overall a good overview. Unfortunately VelomobileWorld stops making the Dutch models. Always thought about a Snoek L, but that seems off the table now.

[@rawfuturetv]

@@sebastiandomagala9233 What do you mean with "closed bülk"? Lets wait. Time will tell what will be with Snoek and Quattrevelo.

[@sebastiandomagala9233]

@@rawfuturetv I meant the Mk. 1, it's the only one with closed wheels.,

[@mnveloguy]

@@sebastiandomagala9233 the open wheel wells impact the aerodynamics so they design smaller wheel wells in this case to minimize the aerodynamic impact.

[@FrankReis-y8p]

Hello sir.. Do you know if there is a dealer near Toronto?

[@mnveloguy]

@@FrankReis-y8p there is unfortunately no dealer near Toronto. I believe there is an ambassador or two in Ontario with a Bülk MK1. I would be happy to put you in contact with them. I am able to ship to Toronto should you find a model I carry that is of interest to you. Feel free to contact e at [e-mail] for ambassador contact info and to discuss the ordering process.
