Been watching all your videos. What a great way for us to see what a bike tour looks like. What a wealth of knowledge your sharing. I would like to tell you about your pedals. They were designed by Grant Peterson of Riv Bikes. He called them Grip Kings, MKS the Jp builder of them. Calls them Lambda when they are sold to be qr pedals. Both my wife and I have them on our NWT bike Fridays. I think the name you said Magura only makes the best brakes in the world, never heard of any else by them.

Super build, I like the friction shifters. Good luck and riding on your up coming tour.

It's unfortunate that you were yelled at. Perhaps if more people go into that space they will actually put up a sign..... Or maybe the guy who yelled at you also works in the sewer museum stink tunel? 😅🙃

I wish you showed how it folds.

Can you say more about your portable shower?

How good is that first free night in the wild?

Its a fun place to ride bikes and has lots of great cultural activities ;)

Awesome

This looks like fun

Wow I really like this

TH-cam recommended your folding bike build and packing videos to me, which I appreciate and got a few nice tips (esp phone mounting, & light packing). I stayed for the sightseeing videos. I think you'd be able to get a bigger audience by showing more bike details, time lapse or skip to different sceneries, interactions & issues along the way, instead of skipping to the tourist attractions & museums. A couple of suggestions: 1. A small mic wind muffler velcroed to your phone's mic. 2. Shorter cranks for long distance knee pains, which I also have. Anyway, happy travels!

What’s the pump brand?

Great street art

Valkenburg is in The Netherlands.

Good job on the restoration! Yes, Rok Straps are good stuff.

Very helpful video, thanks for sharing :)

Thanks for the first update, we hope you continue to have lots of fun!

You may know that an American, originally Army Folder: Montague, is also sold in a civil version, and with "ordinary size wheels" and gears! As I am an owner of a Top Brompton, the formerly named, Superlight Model, I know that the small wheels gives much more rolling resistance than larger wheels! And if possible, I may advise You to visit Denmark, also with a brilliant system for people on bikes, also bridges only for those (and walkers), crossing the harbor in Cph. And even with a tallest point hardly 200m the Country is - far from flat😁, which is really felt on a bike! And if interested, we still have a 1.WW Fortress Wall round Copenhagen, mostly as built. It kept Denmark out of the war, as we had invited a German Officer up to look at the built, and from his Report we could, after the war, see that he expected it would be too costly to take Copenhagen. So though absurdly expensive, it was worth the money! Today most is a Park, but some areas are restored and now has buildings made as the originals, from their drawings. You are able to ride a bike along most of its length round Copenhagen, to the large lakes to the North, intended to be floded, in case of war. Finn. Denmark

The top row of bicycles, in the parking, are able to be pulled out for a better reach!

looks like a great time. enjoy

Hey! you and Juice went together. Nice! For sure, someone will watch. 😉

Good luck on your upcoming trip, thank you for sharing!

I'm looking forward to following your European trip and learning new tips for cycle touring on a folding bike.

Interesting video. I prefer self standing tents because whenever i see a canopy i like to pitch my tent under it. Typically a canopy or roof will have a hardstanding area beneath such as timber decking or concrete.

I suggest getting a quadlock phone mount for you phone

Thank you. The shifters I used are a clamp on style. So I'm useing a pare of these. www.ebay.com/itm/322419945083?epid=1304044533&itmmeta=01HW4GSGPYZ3AWTHBJWQG5V7TZ&hash=item4b11b9ee7b:g:~0wAAOSwwUViZMU6&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA4Cwb53ktt--ssKDdTPgLto0Ipc734M1sJpMNWaZNUW3%2FqioVwc5JhwbCkLvtfXC1AcTIA2S5gLKP0ygHE2rhUrce%2FF6w83B3iUGj5ARHtQ5kry4kHJXzl7rmaRkzi4wAdA2mIECl2esbGyfw%2FMTH2Y565uu3vd93pOtakK5iFn4uGcbS5EZKhpdK9PMJ4aXb2F5RXwLB6LxowkbU1np6%2B64rM3lByCG46l5g513%2Fb5TeOZwNHZani25YILsm1pUQ6NGV9%2Fwec8yLC9XBG2M%2BFwZ9jLx9YfYjUx9aO%2BI%2F7H6A%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR8SL5pDhYw The clamps fit my handlebars very well. The best part being that they come with spare parts. A full leaver assembly has to be pulled off of each one. So if and when the time comes I can use them to replace the parts on there now.

Cool build :) where did you get the handlebar mounts for the downtube shifters?

Nice work. How long is the Ti seat post? Is it from eBay?

Hey! Thanks for the video! I’d love to see another video review where someone takes this pack out for a week long trip to really test it - airports, trains, city hostels and trekking up mountains for a few nights. I’m looking for a pack exactly like this one, to do all that for 1-3 months at a time. I’m interested in the comfort factor, longevity and what size person this pack fits. (Namely a 5’6” woman 125lbs.). Thanks!

Thanks for this! Do you think there are spots to clip a strap to and turn it into a makeshift duffle bag? I will have a cat backpack on my back (with my cat inside lol) when traveling through the airports and whatnot, so I think adding a strap so that it can dangle in front of me will make it easier for transporting between locations, rather than juggling two backpacks and my rolling suitcase. Thanks for answering this question if you can!

Thanks Matt! Great video

Super helpful. Appreciate this video a lot. I ended up buying this backpack.

Thanks a lot for sharing your detailed review. It is extremely helpful! I am hitting the order button now.🙂

Hey Matt! This is Joe, one of the owners at Alpine Ridge Outfitters! Thanks so much for the review and feedback of our Expanding Travel Pack. We're always working to innovate new designs so your thoughts are greatly appreciated!
