Dream Bike | A documentary about making a Festka Rover custom bike (ENG, CZ and IT subtitles).

This documentary is about what it takes to make a custom bike from beginning to end. This is my first custom bike and as a film maker I wanted to share this experience with you because I think it very interesting.
The bike I chose is a Festka Rover, a gravel bike which is also a very performing road bike making it a perfect hybrid which is exactly what I was looking for. I found a few bikes on the market that could fullfill my needs. The reason why I decided to make a Festka in particular is not only that it is made in my home town, that is just by chance. The true reason is that when doing my research I found out that it has some unique characteristics that resonate with my philosphy. I am talking about the fact that the japanese carbon that they use doesn't deteriorate so it is a bike that can last forever and also about the fact that making a Festka produces zero waste. So it made me think that although Festka is a premium brand, so it ain't cheap, in the long term it is a good and sustainable investment. And it is dream bike. It looks and ride great.
About me:
Since 2010 I have dedicated my life to cycling trying to spread the passion for this great activity. I founded a bike company, I make videos, write articles for bike magazines, design bike related t-shirts and I produce contents for those who apreciate my job and would like to work with me.

I just ordered a Scalatore disc and started working with Yahor on my build. And then I saw your fantastic video. I am now very much sure I made an excellent decision to get a bike from Festka !!

Really loved the in depth Festka custom bike experience, your channel is underrated! Now this makes me want to have Festka as my first high-end bike. Michal Bacak's porcelain introduced me to Festka and this video made me love it!

[@FilippoMariBohemianCyclist]

Thanks! I have always produced contents but mostly for other people. I have started the channel just this summer. I will keep trying making quality contents. Go for a Festka. The journey is amazing and makes you appreciate your bike 10x

Thank you Pawel

[@ashleycraiglozada2550]

subscribed. great content. I was hoping an ultra lightweight build. But im still not disappointed

[@FilippoMariBohemianCyclist]

Ciao Ashley, thanks for the feedback. I think the bike is pretty much ultralight. When I have the road bike wheelset (Light Weight wheels) it is a bit more than 6 kg. For gravel I decided for the Mavic wheels because I am an heavy user coming from Enduro and I was a bit nervous having carbon wheels so I sacrificed a bit of weight although the bike is still very light. Greetings from Prague! Thanks again

[@ashleycraiglozada2550]

@@FilippoMariBohemianCyclist yow the bike is 6kgs only?! that's very light indeed. Keep up your great content. ill be supporting

[@seanchin]

beautiful video and bike!!! what made you go with Festka over others similar brands such as Bastion?

[@FilippoMariBohemianCyclist]

Bastion is an amazing bike too. I guess I loved the fact that the bike is an amazing road bike even if it defined a gravel and the durability of the carbon

[@nektariosvasilopoulos3841]

I wish my wife would "agree" to a €10 000 bicycle.

[@FilippoMariBohemianCyclist]

Lot of negotiation :)
