I am converting my Trek Supercaliber over to a drop bar bike and have gotten laughs. Guess I'm not thinking too crazy.

[@Sergio_Math]

A Supercaliber with drops sounds like a massively good idea!

[@EPoel-vg8ci]

The supercaliber is almost the same as the sworks epic,.... i better say the S-works Epic is the same as the supercaliber

[@dalescott3942]

Hey Ben, great content & sounds like a pretty hard race! Did you ride the scarab? How was it and will there be a review soon ?cheers

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

Thank you. Yes and yes! My stack of upcoming content and my appreciation for Colombian cycling are both overflowing at the moment.

[@SimonBorneman]

Super gedaan

LTD is the realest of the real ones.

[@barrymcnamara]

Laurens is the people’s Pogi.

[@Salespunk]

Was just talking to a friend yesterday about swapping to drop bars on my Epic WC, so this is really timely. Do you know if he sized down on the frame or did he still run his normal size? Top tube is significantly longer on my EPWC compared to my Diverge so that is my only hesitation

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

I didn't ask about size, sorry.

[@Salespunk]

@@TheRidewithBenDelaney no worries, thanks for the quick reply!

[@sicoactivo]

grande LTD!

[@axgvr]

This is World Cup frame, right? 1:46

[@TheRidewithBenDelaney]

Yes, it is.

[@axgvr]

some say, the WC is the best gravel bike@@TheRidewithBenDelaney

[@linesided]

Cue a new class of bike - MTB tires and suspension with drop bars and aero geometry. It's called the XCCX and coming soon to a store near you.

[@TomDeLombaerde]

klak af voor Laurens

Laurens loves popsicles

[@Sergio_Math]

It was a particularly hot Transcordilleras this year. All riders were binge-eating icecream!

[@randyschanaman2641]

Good vid if you'd cut the F-word out.......

[@joepiedepoepie1234]

In Dutch it's kind of a polite way to swear :)

[@SlagroomenCornflakes]

What a cry baby.
