AM I SAYING IT WRONG? Do I need to pronounce it ''Stage'' or ''STAGEZ''? French Canadian pronunciations problems😅😅😅
All I heard was no assle!!
I think it’s stagEZ at least that’s how an anglo would pronounce it. Same as how you would pronounce the plural of “stage” in English. Good news is English is a language without rules. As long as we know what you mean it’s all good 👍
All good. Keep rocking it with the awesome content.
salut pour moi le stagez , ce serai le pluriel... aprés au singulier, selon les regions, le "e" final est plus ou moins silent (et la prononciation varie selon les effets rechercher)....
Thank you for a very informative video. I love cycling but not willing to ride outside on the street. This is the perfect next step in my training. I made my decision to purchase an SB20 after your review. I used your discount code along with their current sale made this a great deal. I look forward to watching more of your content.
glad to read this!! 💯 you'll love it
Love the in depth review. The silence factor is a huge pro. Also love that you called Bijan, I definitely miss a good performance class at b.cycle !
Thanks! Bijan is such a great guy!
Such a good review. Thank you so much!
J’adore les classes de spinning , on dirait un mix de cours de cardio et de langages des signes 🗣👂🏼, autre avantage aussi ; moins d’usure sur notre vélo et de c’est composantes , excellent review mec 👍🏼
Vraiment oui!! Merci Ced. Oui j'ai completement oublier de mentionner ce point, question de garder les composantes plus longtemps!
Great review - one thing that may help your reach issue is changing the clamp position on the handle-bars. You currently have yours in the down position which, technically is correct for someone 5'8" (172 cm) and under. But . . . if you want shorter reach, the upper position would work better (details are in the SB20 manual under Fit Guidelines / Handle Bar Adjustment / Choosing a Clamp Position). I tried to link but your comments didn't seem to like me including the URL. I'm exactly 172 cm and I found the upper position on the handle bars and 165 mm cranks to make for the most comfortable position. I'm almost exactly 1 year in on my SB20 - been a great bike - love it for many of the same reasons you do.
Thanks!!
Amazing video! I’ve been trying to decide what smart bike I want to upgrade to. I currently have an old CycleOps. Any idea where/how to buy one in Canada? Everywhere is out of stock! J’habite près de Montréal!
This is the real deep deep depth review!!!
It is :) !!
Have you thought about getting a rocker panel to place the bike on top of? I have one of those for my direct mount trainer and it's made a world of difference for longer rides indoors. I am thinking if I upgrade to one of these it will benefit from a rocker panel even more considering how stiff the stationary bike it.
Oredered one based on your review. There are very few reviews recently on this unit.
You could use velcro to secure your phone to the rest instead of the band. Also, to secure your food cage you could insert a longer top bolt, add some washers and fasten the basket to the bolt. Thanks for the detailed review. :-)
Not sure I want Velcro glued on my phone 😅 thanks
You can move the drops close to the flat and roll the bars some and the reach will shorten up
Nice review ! 2 questions: 1) Does it broadcast its metrics over ANT+ for integration with TrainingPeaks (through a bike computer) or GoldenCheetah ? 2) can you fit a 950ml bottle in there without it flipping forward or bouncing around ? I do 5-6hr rides in the winter and need lots of fluids (prepping for the TransCanada Bike Race)
Hey! Yes I prefer to use ANT+ that's how I always used it. And yes, the bottle cage is big enough and in the right angle to accommodate bigger 1L bottles
Charles, are do you still recommend the bike? DO you know if it works with iFit also?
Does anyone know another Spinning bike that has this feature of being able to stop pedaling and the wheel keeps spinning?
Salut @CharlesOuimet nice video! I am really tempted by the SB20. I have the Assioma Duo power pedals on my road bike. Would you suggest that I use them on the SB20? If so, will that work ok on both Zwift and Trainer Road? Merci!
Hi Simon!
I use my assioma pedals for the SB20 so I have the same powersource indoor and outdoor! SB20 power is fine too but I
great video. random question: what mount are you using for your Garmin Varia on your street bike? it looks really clean tucked up under the saddle.
i made a video on it! th-cam.com/video/Jr76n5OKpnY/w-d-xo.html
Are the handle bars adjustable vertically?
How’s the bike now? Still valid product? Any issues? How’s the support? I know that lots of people complain about issues on the power and the support
Hi Charles, thanks for the review. Does the discount code also work for the European Stages store? Because it doesn't appear to be working :(
unfortunately not, only us based customer :(
Thanks for the in-depth review. I was actually looking at the Stages SC3. Interesting however that the SC3 costs more than the SB20. Could I use the SB20 as effectively for ‘spin’ workouts? Thoughts?
Thanks!! I think it can definitely be sutable for spin too
Don't know what you picked in the end... I recently bought the SC3 for home use. I'm a (new to the business) spin instructor, and when I looked at the two bikes, I quickly discarded the SB20, since the SC3 is the kind of bike you find in cycling studios and classrooms. For me, having that kind of experience to practice my classes at home was the dealbreaker. Also, I'd rather have the console mounted directly on the bike instead of relying on my phone as a screen to check instant stats. No need to say I love the SC3... It's the first Stages bike I've ever tried, I was used to the Technogym group cycle connect, which is very different, but no regrets so far
That snack basket is a great idea. What is the name of it or where did you get it? I need one of those.
That's basket is from Ikea peg board series
Can it run in a mode without any app controlling the power? Just mechanical or electronic switches to rise/lower the power from the bike itself and a small bike computer to only show the data from the bike? Sort of manual mode.
Good question, I believe YES you can, it just needs to be plugged in the power outlet and you can change gears with the resistance buttons in the hoods
Hello
I have a question about my stage bike.
my saddle sometimes comes loose, as in the photo tighten umbraco and put it back in order. question is do you also suffer from this or does this really have to be set to 30 nm with a torque wrench?
grtz
Loctite the bolts.
Damn thats a nice sprint
Thanks dude!
lorsque tu filmes dans le garage du building a condo, est-ce arrivée qu'une auto arrive pendant que tu filmais ? Et les voisins devaient trouver ca weirds au début
Ahahah c'est arrivé, certain le savent ce que je fais, d'autre sont genre : '' Kossé qui fait lo lui''
Hello
nice review
I have a question is this normal for the front wheel (flywheel) to heat up after a bike ride
grtz
yes it will generate some heat due to the resistance
Ok thank you
Ordered today for the new price 1399 usd plus one year free zwift. Thanks
what a deal!!
Where did you find this price?
Any issues with time to reach power? I've heard sometimes it can delay up to 30 seconds, so on short sprints that can be an issue.
Never heard that issue and never had it. Power is almost instant like all my other trainers!
Is the wider (compared to a road bike) Q factor noticeable to you?
Haven't noticed!!!
Helpful. Thanks
My pleasure!
Another question: if i want to drive offline - is there any option i can ride with a programm so that the bike switches gesr automaticly or is the automatic switch only available when driving with zwift etc?
Automatic resistance works as soon as plugged into the power outlet! You can ride with no zwift
@@CharlesOuimet how? With the cycling stage app? What i mean in detail is: i sit on my bike offline and i want a programm that change the resistance (for example:) too high and after 5 mins back to lower resistance. So a programm which i can choose. Is this possible with this bike? I read that it is not
Great video
THanks!
Maybe this is a stupid question- but what for do i need the shift buttons? Does this bike change the resistance automaticly or only when i am shifting?
The buttons change the resistance when in manual mode, ERG mode allows you to be on ''automatic'' but it's a better feeling controlling the flywheel resistance with the buttons!
@@CharlesOuimet thank you so much!
Could you ask stages if they can offer the 5% discount in Europe as well? :)
I was going to ask the same 👍
any update on the powerup on zwift?
Unfortunately, still no native fix. BUT, there is a guy who did a third party app that supposed to do it as well as advanced media control, the website is : stageplay.me/
struggling to make my mind up between buying stages or the Atom 😫
Stages!!
Recommended mat size?
yoga mat works
que smart bike es mejor ? sb20 o la kickr bike?
sb20!
Reason?!
Wish it was available in Singapore
yes :(
How long your torso?
No idea ahah! But I'm 170cm
@@CharlesOuimet okay, your best 165 right?
I mean the crank length
wow, off charts is a fantastic bike I haven't ever seen something like this one What about the price................
I just ordered one and used affirm 🙂 literally an hour ago lol it’s the only bike I could find that I could do cycling ergonomically I’m not an outdoor cyclist and have had back issues so the curved back posture doesn’t appeal to me like more of the other cycling bikes
it's great!
Just to let you know there is a deal with Zwift and the Stages bike for the bike and a year of Zwift for only $1399.
that's insane!
nice video, thanks for taking the time. To one of your questions, there are some hacks to get buttons for zwift powerups. Here's one review from DC Rainmaker, but I can't vouch personally for the buttons. I share your frustration, I often lose lots of time because my wet sweaty finger won't work on my phone screen and I lose the opportunity to open a powerup exactly when I need it, and I need both hands to drop a sprint, like going for the green jersey in sprint segments. th-cam.com/video/_QpZ9D0Gdg4/w-d-xo.html
thanks!!! There is a new dedicated app for the stages SB20, I'll have a review on that soon. But definitely worth it for 25 bucks. Use this link : stageplay.me/?aff=1
Why not just put your snacks in your jersey pockets?
cause usually no jerseys with pockets on the indoor trainer, too hot :)
Oui, mais . . .
Where is the discount code?
Минимальный кривошип должен быть 140 мм
bruh how many times in one video are you gonna throw up that subscribe graphic
It's like 3 times for a 25min video, not that bad ahah
But, did you sub?
@@KevinDoucetqc no, ofc not
See this as if a street performer did a show that you watch and as the show progress, the performer asks you to be generous and give a tip if you can. Fair play for a free show, no? It's how he makes a living
@@KevinDoucetqc this is clearly a matter of taste, and creators are free to do as they please. I find the practice irritating--i know how youtube works, what my subscription means, and i'm capable of deciding on the merits of the content whether i want to be subscribed to a channel. But, hey, I'm just someone using a fake name to comment on a youtube video, Charles can take or leave my feedback.
