where's the X-lab? I want to see your assessment of that bike and also would love to see you cover the chinese brand Carrowter which seems to make the replica Foils, aeros, Vam's, etc. I'm on the fence to purchase one but just wondering if they are safe and legit? im sure they'd send you one for they hype and an xlab.
The Cube is Taco Van Der Hoorn's bike. You can tell a mile away if you know Taco. Not only does he have the best name in the peloton, that dude is able to hold the most insane aero position on a bike for HOURS. He's absolutely crazy about aero stuff, his bikes are always interesting.
Cube is a more on the cheap side sitting brand over here in Germany. Selling a lot of 500€ bikes like Touring, MTB and a hella lot of E-Bikes to the angry old people…The newer high-end race bikes come like hard and very low priced in the stores. Top notch Lightning DI2 Dura-Ace for under 8000€ 😅 hopefully you get your sausages on it
I also noticed the Aeroads looking weird behind the fork when I looked at my for sale ad long enough. It's actually been like that since the 2014 models.
I suspect some of these small frames are ridden by female pro riders competing in the women's Tour Down Under. Aesthetically, at least they look quite different compared to the larger frame version of the same frame.
The canyon looks super tall at the front. Lots of space between the front wheel and the down tube as well , especially compared to the Orbea with the wheel tucked in. Think that’s what was throwing you off !
Celeste isn't for everyone, but that bike just looks fast! Those Orbea stems are bricks Lotto ran integrated Vision cockpits and Zipp wheels last year hope they continue
Jesus Christ, your vote over here are all wrong the Bianchi bike its the ugliest thing bike-wise I've ever seen. i will have the willier over the Bianchi 100000000 time
@ I guess so,… but Bianchi got it wrong this time around in fact the bike it’s not that popular here in Europe compare to the old ones or others bike it’s a kind of flops.
The odd looking Movistar Canyon is size xxxxxxl and the womens bike in this Canyon/SRAM build seems to be a xs. To get 700c wheels in it, the measurements seems off. Why not showing MVDPs or Philipsens normal sized Aeroads to compare and calm you down a bit ❤
Anyone know which dt swiss wheels are on the ridley? I assume they are some variation of the ARC line, but since the wheels have two sets of DT SWISS logos on the bike vs one set online I wanted to see if anything knew.
Ratings are too high, some of these should be 4 or lower. The Merida, the Ridley, colnago meh, Look meh. Bianchi and Factor are the standouts to me. The Canyons do look strange not sure what they did to it. Propel and Orbea ones look classy
Aside from the Van Rysel and the Madone (kinda), they're all ugly as fuck. I hate the concept of the backward slanting top tube--I recognize bike manufacturers want to reduce their SKUs and make a one or two size fits all, but we need those 90s steel track bike looks back where the top tube slants down toward the front of the bike for a really aggressive look--except in aero carbon.
That Bianchi made me throw up a little in the back of my mouth! I'm sorry - I LOVE the old Bianchi looks, I like the celeste paint, and I desperately wanted one of the Pantani retro paintjob Specialissima bikes.(The Mercatone Uno colors) Morphing it halfway into an S5 just makes it look like Elon Musk took over the company and made a 2-wheeled celeste Cybertruck.
Specialized fan boy 😂. Don't worry I used to be a Bianchi fan boy. Still ride one. But moving to be a Merida fan boy 😂 That Cube is Bennie's if I'm not mistaken 🔥
Unwritten but important rule: your bike can be in a team's colors, but you should never wear a team's kit unless you're on that team, vintage kit excepted.
what is your favorite bike from the bunch??? let me know down belwo

That Oltre. Too bad that arent any aero stats of it... Can´t wait for the Y1Rs to hit the tunnel testing though! Great take thank you!
Obviously the ridley, its beautiful and the only bike of the lot with modern geo
Why didn't you talk about the X-Lab??????
@@GCPerformance18 The cube the most beautiful of them all
Miche is a very old and conservative brand. Very durable. Just has not broken into the US market. Very popular on the track.
The Cube is Taco Van Der Hoorn's bike. You can tell a mile away if you know Taco. Not only does he have the best name in the peloton, that dude is able to hold the most insane aero position on a bike for HOURS. He's absolutely crazy about aero stuff, his bikes are always interesting.
Colnago FTW....elegance. legendary brand, best team, best rider.
Yeah colnago is cool but get a C68 or wait for the Y1rs. The V4rs is laaammeee

Miche is in one group with Wilier since 2022, most Wilier bikes come with Miche components- wheels, BBs, cassetes etc.
Ahhh thank you for clearing it up
Oh man that Bianchi is hot AF. That holo paint really set off those curves. Italian styling is supreme.
The "original" is back! 👍😎

That’s what I was assuming too for the smaller frames
That orange canyon looks really good
The canyon looks super tall at the front. Lots of space between the front wheel and the down tube as well , especially compared to the Orbea with the wheel tucked in. Think that’s what was throwing you off !
Wilier Filante SLR is a beautiful bike. FDJ just got the worst colouring you can imagine to show of the forms.
Yea maybe that’s it. I liked the all green willier
That paint job really does a lot for the SL8 as their factory coats are drabber than drab. Anyways, what was I saying? Oh yeah, new Venge
Celeste isn't for everyone, but that bike just looks fast! Those Orbea stems are bricks Lotto ran integrated Vision cockpits and Zipp wheels last year hope they continue
Yeah the Orbea stems are really heavy but hopefully they go more integrated next year.
7:49 Bruuuuuuuu 😭😭🤣
Hahhahahaha
One thing about two-piece: Adjustability. Try getting 85 mm stems in one-piece.
Yeah you're right!
Jesus Christ, your vote over here are all wrong the Bianchi bike its the ugliest thing bike-wise I've ever seen. i will have the willier over the Bianchi 100000000 time
It is absolutely hideous. I want one.
Lmao that’s what different bike companies exist for
I agree that that stem is butt ugly. It looks like something 65 year olds would have to push up their bars.
@ I used to have the old xr4 in Wout color from jumbo vista same speck that bike was so elegant, beauty, fast, iconic. Then bianchi came out whit this
@ I guess so,… but Bianchi got it wrong this time around in fact the bike it’s not that popular here in Europe compare to the old ones or others bike it’s a kind of flops.
I like the aeroads more than the sl8s personally
Fair enough :)
Love that Factor so much I went ahead and bought one 🤩
How does it ride
The odd looking Movistar Canyon is size xxxxxxl and the womens bike in this Canyon/SRAM build seems to be a xs. To get 700c wheels in it, the measurements seems off. Why not showing MVDPs or Philipsens normal sized Aeroads to compare and calm you down a bit ❤
Lemme take a break 😂😂😂😂
He had to go fist some ussy
That bianchi. Damn
Team Cannondale Supersix Evo :-)
6/10 for the Look is a crime.
Hahahahaha beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Anyone know which dt swiss wheels are on the ridley? I assume they are some variation of the ARC line, but since the wheels have two sets of DT SWISS logos on the bike vs one set online I wanted to see if anything knew.
Specialized SL8s always look the tits🤘🤘
Yea the sl8 to me is my fave bike of course
the 4th episode of reviewing views bike is way over due
Frame size making a difference here I think.
I agree
That Bianchi is horrendous.
You keep saying they look like gravel bikes. Of course they do, they all have disk brakes.
Hahahahaha
Cervelo is a solid 6/10 for me. Looks awful with the shallow wheels and tan walls. Factor is the winner for me
Newman!
Why are you keeping saying Team chainrings for Sram red???.
They are not ....
🙄
I don't see the beauty you do of the Bianchi.

I'm a Cannondale fanboy and I'm not feeling that paint job either. They usually have some of the best paint jobs. Not this one.
It is not the best painting, but it is not bad... last year's paint job was great.
Candy pink is something I expect out of EF Easy post.

It was an eye soar at first but after I seen it in person and lifted it and played with it. I kind of fell in love with it
Specialized fan boy 😂.

No it's Taco's
Lmao canyon looks goofy

That's a stupid rule.
@valiantabello I don't make the rules. Don't hate the messenger.
I have a bora kit with an extra 50lbs attached to my body. I love it
@@GCPerformance18 🤣🤣🤣
If I had a ruble for every minute I spent on TH-cam, I'd have bought myself a second monitor by now🧡
