  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 มิ.ย. 2023
  • Bartje 200, a Dutch classic, 200km of sandy roads and MTB tracks in the Netherlands. Flat as a pancake, but still pretty technical, what could be the ideal bike for this? We test our three top picks and let you know at the end what we'd choose for next time :)
    Oh, and we got pretty dirty.

    I am on making my Scott more gravel friendly, considering Vittoria tires you used and was looking for more "aero" grip solution on handlebars for some time as well. Really interested in those "inner" grips you used on your Raven, could you provide more info about them? Thanks!
