I have cycled in 8 countries in 2023. This is the bike I take.

I give it a like before watching. I know it's guaranteed quality content

[@hishamuddinkassim8778]

agree about what you say about Garmin

[@jongohh]

That bit at the end was really funny! 😂

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

😂

[@blinzi69]

I love the Revolt - its the definition of a do it all machine. It might be the best modern bike ever made.

[@jasonloke2219]

Thanks a lot for showing the gear you used. I like the rack.

[@AlistairLattimore]

Cool video, informative and love your presentation style :-)

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

Thank you 🙏

[@allanlee-moore3908]

Another amazing vid with a lot of information

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

Thanks for your support!

The issues with hookless are usually with people who don't read or ignore instructions. I'm not going to get any hookless wheels, but now with Giant shipping bikes with hookless wheels, it seems the customers buying it (few I know) have no idea about it and the tire pressure limit.

[@OlivierBrisson]

You are so inspiring! Thank you!

[@lordalfa600]

Vittoria Rubino Pro G2.0 Tubeless offers good puncture protection at better prices than Pirelli.

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

I would definitely give them a shot. I need to a bit more research to see if they’re compatible with hookless wheels

[@caneye]

Wonder what bike travel case do you use when you travel? Are you using the same black hard case (that looked like a music instrument case) that was in your Taipei video?

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

Yes the case I use is from Buxum Box. The Ventoux model

[@pbrstreetgang2010]

Really nice info about your gear. I also just bought a second wheelset for my Factor Gravel bike and I'll also run 32s so it was nice to see that you are doing that as well. So its possible to take your bike on a flight with tubeless tires without having the sealant leak out and make a mess ?

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

I used to be concerned about that as well but I find that as long as you leave about 20 psi, there’s enough of a seal to not leak. And actually I find many airports are not strict at all about deflating tires.

[@alanaledia2588]

+1 on the mini pliers as I run tubeless as well. Would you have a link to the tool you showed on the video? Looking for something more compact than what I'm currently carrying, thanks! Another great video by the way! I have a revolt as well, it def is a do-it-all bike 🙌

[@alanaledia2588]

Oops, nevermind, I just saw you did post it in the description, thanks again!

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

Thanks for the support! The mini pliers www.knivesandtools.co.uk/en/pt/-gerber-dime-micro-multitool-green-31-001132.htm I was in Europe when I ordered this but Leatherman also makes something similar. www.leatherman.com/en_CA/style-ps-25.html

Good video! We ditch Garmin longtime ago. Try your phone with Komoot and Quad lock. For us after along day of riding we still have 50% of batterie. Just fix Komoot so it talk to you and keep the screen off when you don't need it. Give it a try. Komoot may not work with power meter. Some other app may work? Have fun in Spain!

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

Thanks for the tip. I think not being able to use my power meter is a dealbreaker. For the most part, the Garmin does an ok job.

[@aairosa]

I am on the same Garmin pedals. Flawless. Why not give SRAM a try. I NEVER had an issue with SRAM on both of my bikes

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

I do like SRAM but I would like to keep the group set mechanical on this bike mainly because I use this bike for bike packing. Otherwise, I think Force XPLR would be a good option.

[@shinobusensui9395]

Wait so how do you move the bike from country to country? Can you explain that and the cost factor. So far im enjoying your videos

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

Flying with a bike is a pretty simple procedure if you have a bike box/case. There are many option’s available. I find the difficulty lies in everything else that comes with traveling with a bike. Like getting to the airport or moving city to city with a big bike box. It’s definitely a pain in the ass but for me it’s worth it. The cost of traveling with a bike varies so much, I don’t even know what to say. It will mean getting a large size taxi some times. Also, different airlines will have very different luggage allowances so if you travel with a bike, it’s best to contact the airline beforehand. I’d say on average it will cost about $50 USD extra per flight for bringing a bike.

[@JogieGlenMait16]

i love the rack but for 300 bucks, man. that's half the price of a GRX groupset.

[@JohnnyZeeLee]

Yah the price is eye watering. But at least the quality is there
