[@martinandrew4227]

I could see the sense of acheivement when you climbed that hill, I was so pleased for you, well done! The sense of achievement can be overwhelming when you see all your hard work pay off.

[@melvintanchannel]

Heya bro.... Yea... Seriously... When on top it goes yes dammit I did it... I freaking did it... Wooooohooo... 😂

[@melvintanchannel]

Yeah... Hahahaha it's hard work 😂😂😂. But OK la do for fun 😂

[@rafizulkamalsaad5532]

Minutes of 15:50 -16:30. The solo video with nice background music hit the dot lah bro. It make most or at least me say => hey cycling is cool lah and it looks fun! This style of scene with the effort is worth...

[@melvintanchannel]

Yea hard to do that because it takes time and my friends had to wait for me hahahaha... But I am trying to incorporate some of these shots to my ride when possible hahahaha thanks for noticing bro 😊❤️

[@melvintanchannel]

[@Tannie2121]

@@melvintanchannel I understand the pain but is all worth it. Thanks to ur effort on all the videos really make me grab my bic n ride. I felt some improvement lately. Will hit more elevation n mileage. Love n peace ✌️

[@dukeracing]

Hey men ! For climbs, what gear combination do you recommend?

[@melvintanchannel]

Lol I usually use compact chain ring and rear 10-34...I have weak legs 😂

[@avocado.cyclist]

haha bro.. everytime i ride with my friend who is 20kg lighter than me. .I am always ahead of them in the flats and descents. but as soon as a hill comes, I just get dropped lol! Life is so hard

[@melvintanchannel]

Yea same bro.... Flat I can follow or drop ppl... Climbing OMG no matter how hard I try it's a pain hahahaha

[@avocado.cyclist]

@@melvintanchannel haha its OK bro.. My friends call me the watt machine or trojan horse..us bigger guys produce more Watts. We just struggle on the climbs cause of our "muscle" weight hahab

[@melvintanchannel]

Yea.... Cuz climb lighter ppl use almost 30% less watts den us at anything above 4% and it goes up worst for us as it hits 8 to 10% we can almost use 50% more den skinny ppl.... But on flat we have rolling advantage becuz of our weight and we can produce 200 over watts similar while skinny ppl probably use less but not much of comparing to heavier ppl... Lol but skinny ppl have less watts on their legs as well... Lol... But it gets back as it goes longer distance... Hahaha skinny ppl can ride longer and further easier den us hahaha

[@avocado.cyclist]

@@melvintanchannel haha yeah this is true. The annoying thing sometimes to. I would ride my lightweight friends and I would be ahead of them, but then when there is a hill, they catch up and then drop me. And the bigger problem is. most hill sin the UK are 12%+ (I've done hills that are like 26% and wanted to cry after haha) so once they drop me, its so hard to catch up cause I am just so burnt

[@melvintanchannel]

Yea wei... Climbing really kill us Hahaha haha

[@samtan6966]

And what about the clip-on on the back? & the one on the bike.. thanks 🙏😁

[@Jralf2722]

Hi Mel, do you have the product link for the eyewear you wear?

[@melvintanchannel]

Yea will be uploading a product review and where to buy soon 😍

[@havitoc]

I totally disagree with your statement, i'm overweight - 78kg with 170cm, i climb faster than most of my skinny friends. You may possible ride faster when you stop telling yourself tired.

[@melvintanchannel]

Hahhahah 78kg is muscle bro.... Heavy weight with less muscle will be slow 😂 especially 90kg over... U r the stronger den most heavy weights... 😂💪... Remember bro I am 171cm and 93kg I am 15kg heavier den u and probably more fatty 😂

[@havitoc]

@@melvintanchannel I hope that is muscle, sadly not. You can do it! Enjoy the ride

[@lonot903]

I hope that they already patched the hole that broke my collarbone last 7 months 😅

[@melvintanchannel]

WHATTTTTT!!!! where was that ? there were many holes LOL hope you are ok now bro.....
