ZWIFT - ALL TIME FASTEST ROAD BIKES TESTED!

After weeks of testing we now have the top 10 fastest bikes on Zwift... to spice this test up a little I've retested all the bikes with the fastest wheels not only to see what is the fastest bike... but also the difference between the wheels

CP nailed! I was making a list from the previous videos to get the all around top 10. great job CP!

[@OldSlow]

Fastest climbing bikes, those vs these. How much climbing needed before witch bike have and edge..

[@MaGrath_Gibbons]

Fastest overall wheels next?

[@carti1984]

Guess that would be the Zipp 454s. 🤔

[@AndrewMooreAUS]

How much better are Millensteins?

[@fwmtb]

858 super 9

[@redprow88]

Awesome test, oh the ending is so cute!!!

[@cyclenutter2715]

Great vid Pritch, good to know the tron I just got is fast 😂 Letting the ads run because what else am I gonna do 🤪

[@nickrook4216]

Cheers Chris thanks for the time spent on these.

[@chrispritch]

Thanks nick!!

[@dkw4par]

Most effective options at the different Levels progression are still Specialized alternately: Allez Sprint L14+ (flats/rollings), Tarmac Pro L11+ (climbs) and S-Works Venge L33+.

[@lorddilego6805]

Ed right now: Why did it have to take so long for this conclusion? I had to realize this the hard way! Do you realize how hard it is to keep up with Trons down the Epic/AdZ mountains when you're 60kg and on a pure climbing setup?! xD Wheels next! :)

[@michaelevans797]

Helpful video Chris, please can we have the wheels tested next?

[@vedhed21]

Holy smokes that ending! You've been replaced, Pritch.

[@chrispritch]

😂 😂 I know!

[@EminCasablancas]

Good info

[@richwolf2956]

Helmet/hair test - :D

[@MrBJPitt]

Zwiftinsider.com made a reference to aero helmets being an advantage, but I've not seen tests

[@jo28sx]

C’mon lad get the TTs done 😊

[@simonrussell2642]

Cheers Chris I have finally got my Vengeance just need the disc wheel now. Would you consider looking at TT bikes next please perhaps on the desert TT course?

[@garethbabet2815]

Love to see a Look 795, my dream bike!!!

[@ericreis2]

Next video: Best Wheels. Pls And nice Video!

[@chrispritch]

You got it Eric! Thanks for the kind words!!

[@neildempsey36]

Well in great review

[@garethplant584]

Wheeeeeeels 👍🏻 Great content

[@RobFinch1971]

TT bike test please! You've already done the wheels in this one.

[@chrispritch]

There's more than 1 set of wheels!!

[@ajjerseyqueen6459]

Holy serious broadcaster ! You r the real deal with that mic 😎😎😎😎😎😎😀😀😀😀😀😀😋😋😋😋 love it! What I want is those 858 zip wheels on my Tron bike ; way back u were able to pair Tron with the Millsteins 🤓🤓🤓 that shat was fast 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼😱😱😱😎😎 omg baby!!!! 😻😻😻😻

[@spou20]

Wheel test please. Great vid

[@neillungerer1794]

Would still like to see the times of the buffalo and safety bike with those disk wheels compared to the fastest. I know zwift has fixed the bug that made the safety bike super fast but would like to know how slow are they actually compared to the fast road bikes. 👌Good work thanks!

[@Barney_NZ]

Could you do a quick test on something like the Innsbruck UCI short. comparing how the wheels affect the time there? disc vs 858 vs enve 7.7 vs 3.4 and tron?

[@PointlessCelebrity]

Pritch, I noticed that when you showed the Pinarello F10 that there was some water spray from the road. Does the weather in Zwift have any effect on speed? Good luck testing that... 😆

[@jasonhaight2283]

TT bikes please. Thanks for all your videos 👍

[@charliethew4021]

that ending🤣🤣

[@PedroPrego]

It's not something people didn't already know. The problem with the tron and courses with climbing in it is what happens if you get dropped on the climb? Will you recover the bunch? Probably not. Would a lighter bike allow you not to get dropped? Who knows. If not, then a lighter bike would render you a better finish time and maybe a say in the final sprint.

[@bobbymac1972]

This Guy Rulzzzzzzz!!!

[@GEDC77]

It would be interesting to see who is faster the Tron bike Vs the Venge S-Works with the 808 Super 9 "WITH DRAFT". Every time I race with the Super 9 the avatar stays up on the hoods, don't see it on the drops, so I guess no draft benefit. The Tron might be 1 second slower on its own but with the draft of a "Peloton" that would be cool to find out. Love the channel videos are very cool, when is your next race?

[@KentArnsbarger]

I'm at level 33, have the Tron bike and finally 5 million drops. I have the 808 wheels and a Madone. So what to buy? I guess a good TT bike which I never ride? Or a Gravel bike which only makes sense on the jungle circuit..... I think I'll save them for later. Thoughts??

[@urbangardan1]

O an after party course is it better to use the Tron or the Shiv/858/Disc??

[@sillycoffeedrinker]

Out of curiosity, how many times do you test a bike/wheel combo? One timing or averaged over a few runs? Does the same bike on the same course always produce exactly the same result with the same wattage and rider? Love to see a TT test - will the P5x or Ventum come out on top ...

[@SergioCristancho]

... do the wheels test!... and about the next bike I want to see in Zwift... Colnago, Bianchiand Argon ring the bell for some reason but... I think and wonder why isn't zwift going for some retro bikes... and make steel bike only races... that could work... you have to make them expensive or avaliable in level 26 and above to make people work to have them... and then let some room to customize... even having retro wheels like have a 21 mm that would be interesting.

[@Turbo329]

Zwift already has the Wheel test published so Time Trial frame test would be ideal

[@dazza7367]

Wheelset next plz

[@martindimbleby1439]

Time trial bike test cheers

[@carsongeorge32]

Scott Addict RC

[@daijones1515]

Wheels next please Chris.

[@rossblayney]

Fastest bikes/wheels over a hilly course like Watopia 3 sisters would be gd to see 👍

[@joelbarker5718]

TT of corse then wheels then MTB final gravel

[@Woody321]

Hear a lot about the milenwhatever lightweight wheels being fastest up hills but what’s better for a longer hilly route like the pretzel or the 4 horseman?

[@JakeKaminskisRacing]

Fastest wheels next or climbing bike and wheel combo!

[@j4m1e-b]

Wheels please, be good to see the tipping point for hilly races. At what point does the 858/Super9 needing swapping for something lighter. Maybe UCI Innsbruck or something over the Epic KOM as the course.

[@jameseastwood402]

Not sure how you'd test it, but I'd like to see if the bike makes much difference when drafting. I get a feeling that it really only makes a difference for solo riding or breakaways, and then it's only a fraction of a second. Also a pure climbing test (alpe) and a pure aero test (fuego flats) would be good. I'm hoping my beloved systemsix proves to be quick on the pure flats

[@chrispritch]

Best climbing bikes have already been done!! 👍🏼

[@cyclenutter2715]

Just unlocked the tron soooooo 🤪

[@chrispritch]

Congrats!!!! 🚲

[@estebanplaza1931]

Hello, you have a very good channel, I have a question, in your opinion, which of the trainings that zwift offers prepares you the best for zwift races? Best regards from Chile.

[@chrispritch]

Hey Estaban... I found the crit crusher a decent workout... But might be worth looking at the sufferfest specific indoor cycling workouts!

[@michaelstrom2918]

How fast is the Focus Izalco on Alpe du Zwift and Figure of 8?

[@mrvwbug4423]

How about both TT test and wheel test.

[@jeremypederson8592]

Both please

[@shmee.]

Zwift need to put Colnago in the game.

[@hicksy771]

How about a mtb vs gravel bike on dirt comparison Chris?

[@ayo2036]

Is there a way you could test and compare other dyamics ingame such as acceleration or drafting efficiency?

[@chrispritch]

Not with the set up I've got no... Potentially acceleration maybe...

[@yogatriathlete]

I'm interested in how much difference the CeramicSpeed OSPW makes? It looks like your earlier tests were done without it, but this last top 10 fastest road bike test was done with it if I'm not mistaken. It's hard to tell with the full disc and your camera angle from the left.

[@chrispritch]

The ceramic ospw is on however when off line it doesn't seem to increase the speed... I tested a few bikes both with and without and the times are the same!

[@timc9619]

How does the new sl7 stack up in this

[@mrvwbug4423]

How about MTB vs Gravel bike (I think there is just the Zwift gravel bike so far, though I wouldn't be surprised to see the new Specialized Diverge show up in the drop shop given how much Zwift loves Specialized) on the gravel sections like jungle loop. I already comically discovered that the MTB is significantly faster on the jungle loop than a road bike haha.

[@davepratt9909]

How about the fasted bike (regardless of frame/wheel type) for solo riders on specific courses (Road to Ruins, Mountain 8, Road to Sky, Sand and Sequoias, etc.)?

[@bobbymac1972]

TT Bikes, and helmet vs hair on Tempus Fugit twice which equals 40k! The benchmark TT distance. 40k in just under 1 hour, which TT Bike, Wheel, aero helmet/no helmet performs best?? And include the Tron Bike please! 🚴🏻‍♂️😁👍

[@Jakub.Kochol]

Super. TT bike test please

[@kennethcoomans]

Hey Chris, how can we get that Stages outfit?

[@lo4343]

how could you automatically set the watts

[@loganzelent]

How do I unlock that kit??

[@rickbarbera2134]

Wonder what the differences are when we look at non A+ riders. Not many folks are pulling 5.1 w/kg.

[@Allnuts-H]

I started my everesting challenge when i had 20km climbed, but then again who cares we all love zwift!

[@chrispritch]

Ouch! Coulda been worse i suppose!!!

[@wellergames8152]

What is the promo code for that kit?

[@nearly-blindbrian8372]

you just sent me into a panic, I have 70k feet climbed and not sure if I ticked the Everest challenge. Anything from Collage would be nice and when will we get a Champs (Paris TDF) crit course?

[@bantcliff]

I take it you still can't buy the Disc wheel set up? (did those that bought it in the early [quickly withdrawn] drop shop release get to keep them?)

[@chrispritch]

Discs are available in the drop shop!!

I’m sure the #1 cycling KZbin channel will have a comparison of the fastest TT bike and wheels....

Probably...

[@adammillsindustries.]

I just think TT bikes should draught in team time trial events people make. Obviously only team mates draughting each other.

Because this content is for children you can’t turn on notifications 😤

[@chrispritch]

It's most certainly not for children....

[@ericpearson2431]

So..... There's almost no difference. What difference was measured may be sampling error.

[@chrispritch]

No difference in what?

[@ericpearson2431]

Bike speed. I’m skeptical that if you run this test 10 times you would get the same results. I’m guessing the order would be shuffled +/- a few seconds due to random quirks in the game.

[@stanislaogerman3743]

Why do you use a 5.1w/kg rider when my guess is most of you viewers are no where near that?

[@chrispritch]

Because it takes bloody ages to test 10 bikes... Times that by for for all the tests.. That's 40 bikes... At 40 minutes each...
