Gravel Bike VS Fat Bike! | Ozark Trail G.1 Explorer is getting NEW UPGRADES! | Mongoose Dolomite ALX

[@helidude3502]

Been enjoying my G1. I have no issues with the brakes. Got lucky that mine was dialed in. (and surprised) Just had to adjust it to my fit and add a comfortable seat. I also have 2 mongoose Malus, that are similar to the dolemite. I upgraded mine to a 2x minus the front derailleur. Gave me a little more climbing power. Added quick release front axles to make transportation in my Corolla easier. Added a comfortable seat and odi ruffian grips. I got spoiled to my micro shift shifter on my other bikes, so both of these got them too. I run the fat tires at 25psi since I mix paved and off-road during the same ride. (Max is supposed to be 20psi) It can be a little bouncy on the tree roots or big rocks, but cruises easily on pavement. Different bikes make for different adventures. 👍😎

My Dolamite ALX bought 2+ years ago has been upgraded and moded. Dolamite weighs less than my G1 Explorer cause it was rebuilt with Carbon rims and decked all oils licker alloy parts. In contrast the Ozark Trail had racks and fatter tires to make it a adventure grinder.

Niiiice! Yea we haven’t done that yet lol

[@WayneSmith-zx3tf]

The only thing I don't like about my G.1 is the lower gearing but maybe that's what a gravel bike needs? I'm a road bike guy so I'm used to being on faster bikes. It is smooth and is well worth the money paid for it though.

[@ventureall-terrain2297]

Yea it’s definitely something worth upgrading!

[@davidtinnerello1524]

Everyones dogging the brakes and ive been locking and feathering and the brakes have yet to fail me. The only complaints i have on the g.1 are the front derailleur an the wheel set. Also definitely want to get a through axle front.

[@ventureall-terrain2297]

The brakes aren’t awful but definitely could use an upgrade! I guess it also depends on how you ride and where! Thanks for watching 👌🏽

If you come to Texas, there are lots of trails. I’ve been enjoying many around the Houston area both paved and off-road. Never been to Michigan 🤷‍♂️

[@ventureall-terrain2297]

What’s the names of some of the trails down there?

[@candicethompson4734]

Nice!!

[@CarsTechWood]

Missed a perfect opportunity to swap bikes and actually compare the ride

[@ventureall-terrain2297]

Hi. That fork you showed in the video and left a link to it will fit perfectly on this bike?

[@ventureall-terrain2297]

It’s going to need an adapter, the next video of this bike will show more technical. It’s a tapered fork but straight steer tube

[@ltaylor2238]

Is this trail in Michigan?

[@ventureall-terrain2297]

@@ltaylor2238 Yes, it’s the Clinton River Pathway in Rochester Hills, MI!
