I simply do not get Brooks saddles, but I will accept them on something retro or purely for style.
People who put them on modern carbon bikes are monsters.
😂
agree hahaha
Reasons: Tradition and Hipster. Luddite and Contrarism.
That TT tandem is if “please don’t fart” was a picture.
Frame pumps are old school but very effective. Years ago my favorite was made by Zefal. Bikes used to be made with pump pegs on the inside of the steer tube to help keep them in place. Chris King anything is top quality and not overindulgent. Their stuff seldom wears out. I had one headset that lasted through three frames. I have Chris King headset and bottom bracket on my titanium gravel bike.
I have a Chris King headset with over 200k, unmaintained miles on it and its still smooth. I've not had the same luck with their road hubs though. I had to adjust the preload far too often on the two sets I owned.
You guys are my kindred spirits! I have a custom English cycles with a Chris King HS to match the paint, a custom silica frame pump to match paint - Rob at English even added a frame peg on the seat tube to fit the pump perfectly. Also, every bike needs stainless steel king cages!
I saw the English bikes at the 2016 and 2019 NAHBS in Sacramento, they're gorgeous. I have a custom 2018 Moots Vamoots RSL with Campag Record, full Enve kit and Chris King Mango headset, spacers and hubs with matching Mango Moots seatpost clamp. Two steel bikes, 1975 Albert Eisentraut and 2016 Breadwinner Lolo.
That Silca pump on the illustrated bike is cool. Would be cool to see the pump illustrated (maybe in contrasting colors)?
The tattoos of the guy who customizes Scott bikes look like he became so excited riding his latest creation that he shat himself.
A wheel set with orange Chris King hubs and white spokes
Titanium stem and seatpost to match my ti frame
I used to Live in Eugene, OR (USA) and occasionally saw Mr. English's work. My dream is to be able to afford a custom build and then test ride it through those amazing hills.
I have an ENVE stem… it’s like a real bicycle stem, only mental. Granted it’s light and beautiful, but why? (Answered my own question - it’s beautiful).
I've used my water bottle cage as a wine bottle cage before!😂
Also Bastion bicycles
My dream - if I won the Lottery Jackpot, of course - would be an all-titanium bike. That is, any part or component that could be made out of this marvellous material, would be. Oh - and with the most astoundingly beautiful finishes and paint jobs. Then I'd wake up to my dream.
Chris King “unnecessary”, “indulgent”? The quality and support are legendary for a reason. Yesterday I took off a brand new other brand headset to replace it with a CK Dropset because the bike will be in harsh conditions so we’re not taking chances. Every bike I own has CK bearings. They’re serviceable and rebuildable and the fact is that they last a long time. The support is awesome.
Brought the shoe dryer on the back of your recommendation… genius. Works a treat! & want a Silca pump now.
I have a custom steel bike by Ricky Feather in York. Work of art. Well worth the money .
IMO, Cane Creek 110 headsets are both significant better than Chris King headsets and less expensive.
The Chris King headset is nice but I've never had much problem with any other properly installed and maintained one.
Did Mr “weight doesn’t matter” just say he’s converting his Moss to a lightweight hill climbing bike? 😂😂😂
Maybe his talking about durability and besides heavy bikes are a good workout 😂
I think he usually says that for general riding, weight doesn't really matter. It obviously does matter for racing, even more so for hill climbs 🤷♂️
Campagnolo corkscrew
Can’t use those top tube pumps if your using a frame bag
Pretty sure EVERYONE knows that😅
*you’re
Then do not use framebags, they're ugly and unnecessary anyway.
@@einundsiebenziger5488 not when I'm touring on my bike
shoe drying: many people in the US put their wet shoes folded open at the base of the kitchen refrigerator.
Just get a $25 shoe / boot dryer.
CK headsets are 🔥both my CK headsets are 15+ years old
Dangerholms builds are so insane and awesome! But so is Oleg’s, twisted_wheels channel on youtube 😎
I have a lot of Silca.. lovely product.
But I use CO2, I’m not dicking around by the side of the road.
I want a show about the meaning of all your tattoos!!
and a follow-up show where they have them all removed. The tats look like a school child drew them on with a biro, and they do the opposite of making the wearer look good. As if wearing a cheap ball cap backwards inside a closed room wasn't enough.
english cycles, but he's American. I know him from when I worked at Athletes Lounge in PDX
I dont really understand the silca pump hype, like you add lots of weght to your bike for something you use few times a year, and it still will be pain to use beacuse its hand pump, like why?
Bro check out the stumps at 9:36
Steel bikes are amazing I love them 😊 ❤ no longer own any carbon bikes.. Pete
ale express shoe dryer 1.99$
Something that's expensive but actually useful: Ceramic Speed bottom bracket, coated if you're willing to spend even more. Not for the wattage savings (although I'll take whatever I can get), instead for amazing smoothness. Makes the power train silky smooth.
Onyx hubs with Berd spokes
Why bother with those light spokes and throw them on heavy hubs?
@@veganpotterthevegan weight matters more further from the axle.
@bikernaut1 sure, it still doesn't make sense to purposefully pay a premium for heavy hub if you care about weight.
@@veganpotterthevegan I do not. I just want what feels, sounds, looks and rides best from my point of view.
@bikernaut1 I can't imagine a heavy hub feeling better than I light one. Berd spokes most definitely don't look good very long either. Especially if they're not black. My ex had 2 wheelsets with bird spokes and they looked like shit after a few months of riding😅
