Have you ridden a gravel bike? What did you think?

I am riding an e-mtb, a gravel bike and a hardtail, did some >100km rides with each. Btw I had my gravel bike adjusted so I actually can climb on gravel. In real life, there is no terrain where one of these makes most sense/ would be "best" or fastest. Especially on longer rides there is mixed terrain to deal with. Even on a given gravel road the surface changes over time, can be fast one day with a gravel bike and just horrid some weeks later. I actually enjoy riding totally different bikes, makes the same ride more interesting

Gravel bikes are just a bunch of marketing nonsense, and bikes capable of the same things have existed for many decades now. Touring/trekking/randoneurring/hybrid and cyclocross bikes were all capable of those tasks long before somebody "invented" the gravel bike and pushed it as the new hot thing. As for gravel specific components, it's just an excuse to sell you poorly-performing mountain bike parts, pretending to look like road bike components. With the likes of Niner and their full suspension gravel bike, I"m officially done on the subject. We've been riding bikes on gravel since before somebody figured out what asphalt was, and they weren't gravel-specific bikes, we just called them "bicycles". At the end of the day though, It's such a boring and horrible surface to ride on that I don't understand why people would go out of their way and spend such big money to ride on it.

"Wrong end results," that's your complaint? How about... not racing the same route? Forgetting the ridiculous 15mph speed limit, with downhill momentum able to propel the gravel bike to 70kmh, how fast do you think the Emtb will fly down the same fire road it was designed to easily handle, even with the system off/unpowered, 50-55kmh with great control isn't a stretch and with the extra weight providing rolling momentum downhill, perhaps faster? The point is there would be perhaps a 30 second victory at 70kmh on the gravel bike, meaning in the final tabulation the margin would so heavily favour the Emtb that it wouldn't even be close enough to warrant close inspection. Perhaps that's why this was allowed, the "secret" was a "cheat" that was allowed to stand so we sadly never saw a full direct race. A small other point is this, when comparing machines against each other, do that! Compare the machines with equal (external) rider input, so if one rider can put out 1600w for sprint bursts, don't match him with a rider capable of max 400w input, it's highly disingenuous to do so and then expect the results not to be skewed.

Give me a BBSHD add-on kit in any mtb you like, and take whatever bike you want, I get to choose the battery only.

You guys should do tournment to find out what is the best bike genre. Like gravel bikes vs enduro bikes, and with the tournament you can find out what bike genre is the best

I'm about to go out with a near pro on a $9k MTB with my entry-level off the rack turbo Levo after just doing the same circuit on my acoustic Stumpjumper Competition. He left me for dead. Trust me... we will be equal and I'll keep up for twice the distance on my e-bike. Enjoy riding uphill AND downhill AND across country: get an ebike!

Guys what is with the kmh? Until we're under EU completely we use mph....is it to make it sound like pedal assists are faster than they really are? Ps use a dongle as you're off road, if it's a bosch performance motor and then you can quote 28 miles per hour. Cheers

Was this UCI sanctioned? Can we add in a 750 Kawasaki Enduro and see which comes out on top? I bet the 750 would be a ton of fun,

Kinda funny, I had zero interests in watching this video! So glad I did, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I wouldn't even dream of attempting to take a gravel bike on this ride. Great work, keep the amazing vids coming, Cheers.
