How I make money testing bikes on YouTube

"Do you make money testing bikes on KZbin?" "Do brands pay you?" "How do you get so many bikes to test?" "Do you get to keep the bikes?"
These are a few common questions I get, so I want to answer those questions in this video, explaining how I make money on KZbin, and how I test bikes. And no, bike brands do not pay me for reviews. And no, I do not keep the bikes.
If you are here looking for a quick way to make a million bucks on KZbin, this is not that video!
Instead, I explain how this channel works, and how bike magazines and bike websites work, since that is my background and what led me to KZbin. I talk about testing bikes and gear. And I talk about my biases.
When it comes to bike or gear reviews, many savvy cycling fans have questioned how various business models affect the integrity of the reviews they are reading or seeing. It’s a valid question - and part of why I did this video.

I had covid when I shot this, so I look a bit waxed. Thanks for your support!

[@mogulmayhem]

To Ben's sponsors: I trust this guy's take. I love cycling, and this guy lives our dream. He also seems like a ridiculously nice guy, and they are a rare find these days. Give Ben money for the audience he reaches. Thanks.

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

You know I'm forwarding this one... haha! Cheers.

[@perjensen1962]

Amen to that - Happy New year

[@DreamingCyclist]

Agreed, and I'll add that Ben's content is informative and relatable. By 'relatable', I mean that I feel that I'm never spoken down to, despite my cycling abilities being much less than Ben's. Ben's content is also helpful to get me out the door, which for too many is the hardest part of cycling.

[@jrwnd99]

How did you come by the Scarab? I’m curious about the brand and bike. For me, comparing it to a Fairlight Secan or other high quality steel bike would be so helpful.

[@frazergoodwin4945]

Thanks for the explanation Ben. Though to be honest, after watching a lot of your content you don't really owe anyone an explanation as its all there in the videos you post. And that is why I'm here anyway. Always found you engaging, straightforward and honest. Old school journalism meets new media and bikes. Keep it up - its appreciated!

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

Thank you. And yeah, I'm a believer in 'show, not tell', so I am glad to hear that my walk has matched my talk. Cheers.

[@garysladek9110]

I also appreciate your interviews. Cheers.

Thanks for this. People seriously underestimate how hard this KZbin stuff is. You have to manage both the creative end of it with scripts, camera work, editing, and actually finding stuff worthwhile to say, while managing brand relationships and being honest with your reviews at the same time. Thanks for the videos, at least some of us see how hard it is and appreciate the work you are putting in.

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

Cheers. The editing is an ongoing struggle/learning situation. 😀 Cheers.

[@jhouston14]

Ben’s authenticity is real. I’ve seen him at CO gravel events. He is personable and unassuming. I shared a brief conversation with him after an event, and he displayed the unusual ability to really lock in and listen as well as speak. Always enjoy his videos.

[@Mtbbodhi]

Ben, congrats on taking the leap into your own independent channel and business. I’m sure it was scary but it’s so cool seeing it work. Your content speaks for itself. People are attracted to it because it is real and engaging. So happy for your success and looking forward to more! Cheers.

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

Still is a bit scary! Thank you.

[@dougthurston4438]

There are already so many great comments that cover what I feel as well. You walk the walk (ride the bike?) and not just talk the talk. Knowing that you jump in some of these difficult races with "test" bikes rather than your personal bike dialed in 100% for you and still do so well is illustrative and inspiring. Keep up the good work. 💪

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

Thank you.

[@andrewfrey351]

I got the opportunity to ride with Ben almost 18 years ago at a multi-day event in Montana put on by a sports nutrition company. Not only is he a super nice guy, he's also a beast of a rider who really knows his stuff. So glad to find this channel!

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

Up into Glacier National Park! That was a sweet ride, eh? So was sneaking away to get a milkshake after. I hope you're well.

[@Gravel-Cult]

In a changing media landscape it is nice to see someone create a, hopefully, sustainable model and a unique voice in the cycling industry and sport. I don't think you have to apologize for trying to make money at it. You have always been transparent about when and who you are sponsored by and your videos have not been commercials without being explicitly labelled as such. You have managed to bring some authentic fun to your videos and as a viewer that is all I am looking for. Enjoy the ride! Ultimately we feel like you are our riding buddy on the weekend, shoot the sh*t on the group ride. Do what you love and it will never feel like work.

[@terrillford7784]

Ben is the GOAT of bike reviews. Very down to earth guy. I'm glad I had the pleasure of meeting him in person at UNBOUND.

[@spaceburge]

It’s hard to find honesty and integrity in KZbin land. You have both. It’s great to have old school journalistic views and be based on products you find interesting. Very authentic and gets me seeing and hearing of things I wouldn’t normally search for. Keep doing what you’re doing and we all appreciate this video but it’s evident you aren’t selling your opinions.

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

I appreciate that.

[@nkantar]

I’m sort of blown away by the fact that you only own two bikes, but then it makes perfect sense, since you always seem to be surrounded by test bikes! Thank you for this how-the-sausage-is-made explainer, and hope it works out even better for you in 2024.

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

Thank you.

[@stevematous3526]

You are the man Ben: high degree of integrity and very factual in your presentation. I'll vouch for you if there are any doubters out there.

Great approach! Keep the videos coming. Love the channel!

[@p-dub22]

Appreciate all your videos and reviews, and thanks for your transparency as a content creator.

[@harrybbbb]

Bravo to you. Real old school journalistic integrity. As an ex-newspaper journalist of 35 years, I’m appalled how I see so much worthless crap on KZbin from creators who really haven’t a clue. Keep up the good work.

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

Thank you.

[@Yamaha_Bolt]

I wish every KZbin reviewer was this transparent. Really interesting background info here. One thing about bike reviews that might be relevant is that the bike a manufacturer selects to send out for review is not going to be one randomly selected of a store floor. It’s likely highly QC’d beforehand. Ask your partners if you can pick up the bike locally so we can be sure that the reviews reflect a bike we’re just as likely to buy ourselves. Love the video content. Thank you.

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

You would think a brand would make sure the bike was dialed, right? And sometimes they do. Specialized for instance has a pro mechanic in house (at Morgan Hill or elsewhere around the world) take the bike out of the factory box, fully build and dial it in, and then repack it in a larger box with just the bars removed. Many brands just forward the factory box from their warehouse. That is a good idea about picking up a bike at a shop (would be easier for me!) but that is a brand budget/inventory vs shop budget/inventory thing, plus that wouldn’t for pre-embargo bikes. Good idea, though!

[@juddridesbikes]

Love this Ben! Your openness and honesty is so refreshing!

[@Chris_Rides_Bikes]

as someone who is about to turn 50 in a few days, I really appreciate having someone like you to watch, Ben! You're from my generation, seem honest and trustworthy, and genuinely enjoyable to watch. I wish I had your fitness and cycling skills, but.. ;) I hope you are able to continue making content and being able to have the life you love! Also, I need a cap!! :)

Thanks again for another look into “The Ride”. You are doing a great job keep up the good work.

[@GBatAP]

Great post and I like the transparency. There's no perfect, unbiased way to test but I think how you have it set up is probably the closest thing to it. As long as you feel like you can be honest in your review than any fringe benefit (necessary travel to test etc,) is negligible. Great content, keep it up!

[@ellerybice3787]

A very interesting explanation of the facts, thank you. A very Happy News year ahead.

[@galenkehler]

We appreciate your candor and willingness to explore your bias. It definitely gives credibility to the information presented. The approach of separating the categories for paid sponsorship from the reviews is probably the best way.

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

Thanks, Galen. It is a topic I I wanted to address for a while, and being laid out with Covid for a while presented a good an opportunity as any! 😁

Great video Ben, I recall first catching you on an old Bikeradar video, where you rode around with 4 or 5 power meters on your bike, very thorough analysis,great journalism and very engaging to watch, cool to see you grow your channel. Thanks for the explanation but as others have said, we know what you are about 😊

Yeah I rode myself into a dayglo construction sign once on that bike, while looking down trying to figure out why one power meter wasn't reading... Cheers.

[@thegrumpygraveller8820]

I wish you all the success you deserve. . p.s., While I have nothing at all against any generation, I find a certain comfort in seeing a man of my own age group who is not only a great journalist, but also remaining relevant in the age of modern social technology, while also being a bad to the bone racehorse on the bike.

And please do more with maybe a deeper dive into personal builds and how all those crazies are cobbling together hot rods that get them to the checkers, either first or eventually or somewhere in between.

[@robbchastain3036]

​​@@TheRidewithBenDelaney And my use, Ben, of 'crazies' is a playful nod to the autobiography of BMX freestyle legend Mat Hoffman titled The Ride of My Life. After losing his factory sponsorship in the industry shift from BMX to mountain bikes, he bought his own 18-wheeler and booked gigs and remained a popular freestyle showman. The book is filled with lots of funny anecdotes, like the time he and his cohort walked into a truck stop and were asked, "Are you the crazies who ride them U-ramps?" And in salty trucker talk, Mat assured him that they just drove the damn rig for the crazies. The book is such a good read and heartwarming, too, his love for his parents and fans and sport and Evel Knievel, who befriended him.

I've enjoyed your channel and will be doing cc bikepacking this year. I agree with your perspective and like your presentation of the bikes and gear. Personally I have a channel and a fleet of hardtail and gravel bikes. I'm fortunate that I have the means to spend money on the bikes I like and want, plus the health and fitness to enjoy setting goals and tracking them on Strava,Polar and Garmin. I'm not interested in racing or going to cycling events and mostly ride solo or with small groups. In the next few years I will be retired and traveling and riding more often. So my channel will continue to just be a diary of things I like about bikes and being healthy. I'm happy to support your channel with view hours as a YT Premium account viewer. Plus if you get post a "buy me a coffee" I do that with other channels. I look at YT like this. Many people are working hard to improve the available content to watch because let's face it, most of the stuff on TV is crap. Anyway, have a great 2024!

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

[@albarnes9455]

Ben - Appreciate the meta review; like most of the commentors I've seen, I'm here because you represent a kind of everyman of cycling with an insider's knowledge and frankly, a top level amateur skill level without being obnoxious. Tough to pull off; we want to be envious but we can all imagine riding and hanging out with you. I think the quality of your reviews have resulted in as many non-sales as sales; that is if you were inclined to buy a brand Ben's review wasn't the thing that closed it for you but probably made you look harder - at both yourself and the product. It's been a good ride so far; Good luck in '24.
