      Ooh can you imagine using that TPS system in conjunction with a course map and some programming which takes into account location and speed -- you could have the bike air up the tires itself just in time to hit a road section, then air them back down at just the perfect moment before a gravel section, all automatically without the need to press any buttons

    @buster.keaton 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +29

    A potential future GCN video would be to somehow determine if treaded tires actually make any difference over slicks for gravel riding. I'm inclined to think they don't make much difference since the top layer of gravel is typically very loose.

    • @bocksteinbikes
      @bocksteinbikes 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      From experience I can say that most people ride too much tread on gravel. Unless you are riding in mud or very loos ground knobs actually have 0 effect other than creating rolling resistance. I usually ride slicks from March to October unless the conditions are very wet and I expect lots of loose terrain. Even on sand I don't find knobbies to be more effective than slicks.

      Absolutely. The rest of this is like watching reviews of F1 tech -- pretty, but made of unobtanium and only practical in that most contrived of things, a UCI event. Ironically, the hub pump is the only thing I can see a regular rider wanting on a long mixed terrain ride, but no way would one want to spend 3900 euros on wheels that can't be repaired in the middle of the Silk Road or Hellenic ride, and which add 400g to drag up the hills. Maybe half the weight and half the price would be sensible.

      Depends on how cold it gets. If it stays above freezing, absolutely not. Even temps below freezing are fine, but will temporarily increase your battery drain for the same shifts, while in use. You may have to charge more often in that case. Just make sure the battery is not below freezing while you charge it, which is a concern with all lithium batteries.

      @chuckaeronut 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I've heard about how nontechnical the gravel course actually was, so I'm not disputing people's concerns there, but on my gravel bike, I run 2.25" (57mm) slicks at a reasonably low pressure and ride some incredibly chunky stuff on which riding a road bike would be functionally impossible. The grip is more than adequate if you keep your expectations in check, and yet, when the tires are at a higher pressure on the road, while they're still a little slower aerodynamically, they feel *every* bit as fast as skinny road tires. Just would like to establish that slick tires in larger sizes can indeed be capable of some very, very rough riding.

      If you can use a road bike for gravel what's the point? It needs to be it's own discipline, right?
      ...And these are the "Worlds" which is an insult to the arduous, long grueling gravel racers that dedicate all their time to this discipline.
      I'd love to see the UCI design a course to these charchteristics and have the world tour riders battle it out with the year-around gravel racers. But they have failed miserably.

    I'm against the Gravaa adjustable tyre pressures thing (and was for J_L-a-B's intent at Roubaix)... part of the risk of racing should be gambling on correct pressure, there's something about compromising for the varied conditions that feels more in the sporting realm of chance. Gravaa feels like how UEFA have fornicated up The Champions League where it's geared towards the wealthy rather than intent of the sport.
    Besides, no one is making bad enough pressure guesses at this level to be miles off the pace.
    Also; €1,400? + €2k Wheels and ~€2500 for Groupset, all combined for Frameset... #Shenanagins Maybe have an outlaw category for this type of guff.

      @@erlendsteren9466 a pro racer would use that setup on a course with a mix of technical single-track and gravel. You’d never see that at a “typical” gravel race.
