When cycling back from work, I turned a 4.6 mile trip into a 9.2 mile trip through the local parks and scenic route. Added an extra hour on my commute, but for health benefits and my own mental health, just taking that extra time for myself has helped over the last couple of months. If I plan a route, I don't care how long it takes me to get home, if I can bypass any incline hills/ roads, with woods, then the wife knows I'll microwave my tea when I eventually get home lol.

I ride to work most weekdays on my MTB. I have a road bike but find the MTB much more fun and versatile, (I can vary my route by taking stair options), even though it's a bit slower. The MTB also has tubeless tires and the road bike doesn't and I find when it rains while I'm on the road bike you can almost guarantee I'll get a puncture because the tires get sticky when wet and pick up the rubbish on the shoulder of the road.

frame bags for the win... the less you carry on your body the better, especially when you're talking about keeping the sweat down. not only bring a change of clothes and shoes but also deodorant, travel bottle of shampoo and a microfiber shop cloth (or a backpackers towel if you have longer hair). this way you can always wash up in the sink if you don't have a shower at the office. I also keep extra socks at the office in case I get caught in the rain. there's nothing worse than putting your dry foot into a sopping wet shoe... this way you've got some socks to absorb the moisture out so the shoes can hopefully dry out during the day. my 45 Nrth boots a waterproof but if I'm wearing shorts the water can run down my leg and into my boots. fortunately they have an insert that I can take out which allows them to dry out much quicker

Running a 27.5+ trail hardtail as my commuter now. Rigid narrow tire bikes are a no-go for Russian city (ok, you can ride them but only summer and in some parts you'll wish you had suspension). Some forest trails are smoother then unrepaired pavements. Also, 27.5+ can take much more punishment and cope with my weight better. Normal MTB wheels... Got tired of changing the spokes. Also, the winter. When snow it all around, roads are only cleaned enough for cars to go and pavements are not cleaned at all, you do want those low gear ratios and wide tires. Yea, riding bike at -30C is still fun!

I would personally recommend anyone who's commuting with their MTB to try the Hutchinson Python 3 or the Goodyear PEAK. Having a tire like that is a GAME CHANGER. Video quality will also benefit alot from a re-shoot, and the video may end up picking up a lot more videos now that this is a somewhat trending topic with all the low cost entry level modes that , Scott,Trek, Canondale e.t.c have started putting out at a lower price

Finally, a Video on the topic I wanted and had been figuring out for a while. I think that if you can only havr one bike and you love MTB, but need to use the bike for commuting daily then a good bet could be to get a hardtail, get an extra set of wheels and tyres for the pavement and have a locking front fork. That way the nice hardtail goes from a super capable off roading machine to a relaxed road bike with the swap of the wheels and the locking of the fork. For the accesories, I think a basic one is the bag and the lock. Followed by the glasses and the light and maybe a phone holder would be nice too. I refuse to use the same trail tyres for the pavemente because they will last nothing and because they will make it super hard to pedal up to road speed. That is why I am thinking about a set of pavement tyres already mounted in a set of wheels to simply remove the trail set and bolt on the pavement set. Finally, adding to it, I might suggest a different saddle that results more comfortable for extended seated periods on long distance riding. That if you dont have a dropper already installed.
@michaelsteffensimonsen55733 жыл бұрын
When I commute on my mountainbike HT, I sometimes find it helpful to go the opposite way with the front tire pressure. Going lower can really help with the tiny bumbs on the asphalt, or when the asphalt goes "rough and bumby", I can really lay the power down, and the front tires will absorb the small bumbs or w/e there might be (fallen branches), and not slowing me down😎✌️🍻

I have to lube my chain maybe once every 3 days and I've had the bottle since October and it's only now just getting to where I need to replace it. I commute every day rain or shine for the last 6 years. all I know is that it was one of the more performance based lubes that the bike shop had, such that I was worried when he gave it to me that it was not going to be as premium as the price suggested but it turns out it's actually better than most others that I've tried

No worth it. i use a 30+ yr old SS converted road bike with new budget wheelset for commuting. Previously i used it 2x7 when i used to climb to work. It all cost me about 200€. Switching TL tyres and using my XT drivetrain just never worth for commuting. Besides a drivetrain change when worn on mtb is almost the price of the other bike, there is a much bigger chance of getting hit by a car. old cromo frame brakes? I weld it or buy another from the price of a tire
