Eurobike Sports Tech Roundup: Cool & Quirky

[@brentcharlton1065]

Rouvy did it! I thought about this a lot during the pandemic. Very cool for race prep. Love. This.

[@SonnyDarvishzadeh]

10:40 "at the end of the day, if the power meter is no accurate then it's just Shimano" 💀

[@veganpotterthevegan]

They should just call the model, Shimano😂

[@SY-ve5qm]

Like this format a lot…just like I FaceTime with a buddy talking about bike stuffs😂

[@shepshape2585]

Being someone who uses and loves Rouvy, I can't wait for this new feature to get rolled out. One reason in particular is that I'll be moving in a few years, and this will give me the opportunity to record my current favorite routes and then ride them on Rouvy after I move. Keep me from missing them as much. Also great news that Jetblack will be selling models with a cassette instead of that disc for the same price. That's a good $50 I won't have to spend. Thanks for the video!

[@AngryLlama87]

definitely the guy almost falling out. I'm honestly impressed by that cargo bike, it's huge!

[@martinlevy5833]

Rouvy rocks. My favourite indoor cycling platform. I like “traveling” element.

[@JasonSheehy]

"...if the power meter isn't accurate, then it's Shimano." Burn. Sweet, sweet burn.

[@dennish9519]

Wish companies would do more with Headlights. Design them with a shaped beam so no blinding on coming traffic and be under the headunit mountable on a gopro type mount. Too many have just spot beams and if they do have a shaped beam to mount it under the headunit it has to be mounted upside down so there goes the whole shaped beam thing.

[@TheRealMichaelB]

Dude - Outbound lighting Detour ticks all those boxes. I have one, and love it for all those reasons. Riding in the fog during the first evening of Badlands I was the only guy not getting bounce back light in the face because I had a cutoff and could adjust the angle up down to optimize. Check it out

[@dennish9519]

@@TheRealMichaelB I also have the Outbound Detour. I just wish there was more options out there.

[@chrisobyrne5675]

Looking forward to the annual washing machine in the team bus feature.

[@keithburnage5794]

Loving the wide variety of bikes purposed to haul cargo

[@michaelhilbert6919]

Loved the cargo bikes

[@fabianmolyneux2308]

I got a cyclplus mini pump and it's great. It's lighter than 2 CO2 cannisters plus it'll do 3 inflates. Importantly, it holds its charge, sparing you the need to frequently keep charging it up. Presently, I carry it in my back-pocket as a backup pump. After snagging a flat it worked a treat.

[@brannmacfinnchad9056]

How well does it hold the charge if not used? Are we talking weekly? Monthly?

[@fabianmolyneux2308]

Mine has stayed fully charged in excess of 2 months easily. I went back to recharge it as I expected the battery to drain over this period only to find it was still fully charged. I am “belt & braces” so still carry CO2 canisters, but have not had to use them. The Cycyplus is way easier to use

[@msegui9]

I just got the AS2 Pro and aim not having good luck. Whenever I’m holding it snug on the valve, it stops because it thinks the pressure has been reached. Have you had this problem?

[@fabianmolyneux2308]

@@msegui9 Yes I have had the same issue. It’s usually had to do if your tire is still inflated. If that’s the case you need to start running it and then connect it to the valve, which isn’t great. It works pretty much the same way as a CO2 canister in that you’re inflating a flat tire, rather than topping up an inflated tire

[@33scottyp]

Anyone else constantly checking his wrists each video to see what watch he’s testing next haha. 😂

[@thedronescene7474]

No

[@mikebuck4841]

Yes, Fenix E, Fenix 8?

[@bram2254]

Yep, me too 😂

[@michalsz.7179]

duh!

[@mantelles]

Hey, maybe you and the Llama should race on that Whiizu, winner take all...

[@AB-fh9zh]

That new Rouvy feature looks so cool, look forward to seeing more about it.

[@wargor]

I may be switching to Rouvy for off season training. Being able to upload our team bike routes is a bonus!! Also, that electric bike that was pulling the lady at 5:05 was pretty cool!!

[@teddgram]

I mounted a Niterider Bullet up under my seat just like the Lezyne taillight using a couple of parts from 76 Projects. I used their saddle rail mount and one of their GoPro light brackets. The light has a tiny button on the center of the light and I have it mounted so it's flush with the back of the seat so its easy to turn on/off. My only complaint is if it's light outside it can be hard to see if it's actually on.

[@cheeheifoo9282]

Thanks Ray. Really liked your quirky take on this. Mini pump looks interesting.

[@NeuroHunter]

Having read reviews of various Chinese electric pumps and owning an electric pump from Bosch (which is, admittedly, significantly less compact), I’m very skeptical about all of them with an exception of Topeak one - those guys make very solid bike tools and pumps, I hope they can get it right.

[@BETRNSX]

That Lyzyne AI light I already have something like that for years from Amazon. Was like $30. It’s great. It’ll brighten when I brake and everything.

[@templink]

Super good review, I would like to see more on uploading video on Rouvy and have someone like you to review a route you know and have comments with tips and trick from your experience from your own upload

[@pksteffen]

So many to choose from!

[@blahblah24304]

It's hilarious that Zwift take years to come up with a new course and Rouvy can do it overnight for each individual user.

[@DennisBishop]

I liked that one bike with two tires!

[@jpay]

"App Neutral" as a better term over "App Agnostic" (8:34)? Favourite bike has GOTTA be that bike for carrying other bikes (8:57).

[@rmeyre]

Favourite bike, the one that looked like a bubble car woman reclined with a white dome/roof thing to keep her dry, but any rain would totally splash up the open sides anyway!

[@lobster86]

I bought Favero Assioma’s after waiting for IQsquared. They are the best bike kit I’ve ever had. Amazing

[@rpjwhite]

I am going with the 4 wheelers. But personally the new Urban Arrow or the new riese and muller looks ace.

[@UK-Cycling]

My favourite bike Ray is the Seka Spear. Best regards Martin

[@CycoWarriorx]

The compact tire inflator, if it works well, looks interesting…

[@fayecooper4277]

Great coverage!!

[@summarity]

Something not flashy or techy but interesting no one's covered yet: the release of the new flagship Conti tire, the Aero 111, which is a 26 or 29mm tire for the front wheel only. It's being sold now in a bundle with the GP5000S (rear) in 26/28 and 29/30 combos. It claims superior grip and aero benefits at speeds as low as 30km/h. It's also $150 per tire, so some independent testing would be great to see!

[@veganpotterthevegan]

My guess is that at best, it'll give you no more than 1w over the most aero tires. I'm wondering if it's the same construction of the 5000 tt. If it is, it's not going to be the fastest tire out there. *Just crossing numbers with Aerocoach's data on rolling resistance and tire aerodynamics.

[@michalsz.7179]

Thise mounts look nice!

[@haifisch18]

Cycplus AS2 works like a charm on road and gravel.

[@zerofugz1621]

yes more on those pumps

[@brannmacfinnchad9056]

The Rouvy thing is cool. Next up, uploading your GPS and leveraging Google Earth imaging.

[@BETRNSX]

I think the reason you don’t have more subs is if people did, they’d go broke buying all these cool gadgets you review. 😂 great content!

[@jethot7307]

The dude in the back of the bike filming. So many others. Wish I was there.

[@gonzalezgaraypablo]

Awesome for Rouvy! Sadly you can’t use Rouvy with the zwift smart bike 😂

[@sylvainmichaud2262]

The coolest bike is most certainly the one ( 8:56 & 12:40 ) pulling a four wheel trailer with a two wheel trailer and an advertisement stand on it. Ebikes are forcing corporation to rethink their local deliveries in cities' downtown and other traffic heavy area or sectors with pedestrian streets.

[@PhyRexia.]

That dig at Shimano *chef‘s kiss*…

[@BooXdk]

I would love to see a test with the Elite Square in combination with a Neo2 ( could be a potential replacement for my Neobike... ) And awesome coverage from Eurobike 👍

[@jarretgosbee7717]

Ou this Rouvy update seems like a great thing for me, as a race director.

[@MichalBrat]

Garmin should merge that pump with their Varia Radar or at least rear red light. On an average ride you should be able to have enough energy for regular Varia functionality and still have spare battery to inflate one or bot wheels should bad luck strike.

[@SvenfromKiel]

The Quintana Roo 4:35 ;)

[@Dcrainmaker]

Well played!

[@JoeWilensky]

loving some of those "low-rider" e-bikes.

[@piotrmielnik1404]

Funny to see Lezyne display a blinking back light at Eurobike when they are illegal in Germany :D

[@veganpotterthevegan]

It's Eurobike, not Germany bike.

[@stuartgrant1435]

The phrase to use should be appgnostic….

[@djrlloyd]

My favourite passing bike was the one with a small child on the front facing backwards……at least I think that’s what I saw🤔. Child based crumple zones….its the way forward 😂

[@rdbiebel]

How much will the Rouvy 3D upload cost? A 25 hour cloud session isn't free.

[@dianahellman9254]

I was thinking the same....

[@robbeelsas]

Never thought I'd say this, but I might change from Zwift to Rouvy coming winter

[@AndreSB43]

The four wheeled "car-like" bike at 12:42 with two persons on look fun, I'm all in favour of big electric bikes replacing cars in cities.

[@sylvainmichaud2262]

I definitely prefer the XPédo powermeter strategy to the Shimano one.

[@davidrowe8747]

Love your videos and especially this roundup, Ray - but I wish I could find the x .75 speed button. ;-)

[@mda05rnr]

And Amazon have a fleet of those cargo bikes in London.

[@mda05rnr]

Best comment was. : if you don’t make your power meter accurate, well, that’s just called shimano 😂

[@leissp1]

The bouncy bike going by

[@AngryLlama87]

I wish I was there this year, but sounds like a less exciting year anyway so that at least quells my fomo😂

[@huges84]

That two person recumbent was quirky as hell

[@Frisco-moves]

[@wayslow]

No iQ2 power meter pedals? Any day now!

[@wboyes27]

The bike at 8;59 looked pretty special, seemed to have the rider at the front facing backwards..?

[@WayeOfLife]

I think I saw my friend's bike company go past.. ten:07 cargo bikes.. actually that is a lie. I didn't the bike go by.. but I know they are there and wanted to give them a shout out haha

[@robbeelsas]

Holy sh*t, that new Rouvy feature might just be a k*ller app, especially for TT recon

[@Dcrainmaker]

It's super cool!

[@davepratt9909]

Where is the recumbent cargo bike? It's about the only thing I didn't see go by.

[@ben.holmes]

When and where is the pump available? Want a small one with a digital gauge... That seems to be the one.

[@veganpotterthevegan]

The pod rules me and many out. My foot would definitely rub it and there's no way I'm moving my cleats enough to clear it😂 The speedplay and assioma pod are a non-issue due to the stack but this is a terrible design

[@mrbigring1]

Best bike the bouncy bike 9:30

Comment..just for the stats

[@augustusanderson9596]

E-bike cart

[@nitramluap]

Those Lezyne lights don't have great beam optics for anyone coming the other way. They're terrible. It's like having a car coming at you with the high beams on. Can't stand bike lights like that.

[@Dcrainmaker]

But it’s a rear taillight?

[@Scheddy]

But Rouvy riders looks so bad from lightning. It's an object that obvious should be not there, please change my mind....
