  • This is my very first mountain bike ride in years! I've owned an mtb before, but it's an oldie and I have not used it for a very long time. Besides some mtb rides abroad I hardly ever ride mtb until now! I have this super fast Cannondale Scalpel to use for 2021. It's (on of the) fastest and best performing Cross Country Mountain bikes currently available. So in this video I'm quickly setting the bike up for a first ride on our local single track. The single track is very small, short and definitely doesn't do the Scalpel justice but it was ok for this first ride. I'll be taking this beast to some bigger and better trails for sure!!!

    Its fast, but the fastest? For me my scott spark is more agressive and faster (tested both). The cannondale is more smooth. But i guess its personal.
    btw: I ride my tires 1.5 front and 1.7 rear (2.25 tires) for racing. I can go a bit lower when cruising or mayby when i would use wider rims.
    I keep the handle bars at 68 cm. I feel there is no reason to ride it wider (its a trend), handling does not improve much more and at 68 cm your more versatile. Especially with narrower single tracks , tight cornering and riding in a platoon.

    • @jasperverkuijl
      @jasperverkuijl  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Just what I've been told 😆😆 I'm sure the Scott is a very good bike too!🤙🤙 If i ride 1.7 the rear starts to roll too much in corners so need more pressure..

    Isn't a ful suspension MTB kind of too much for Dutch trails? I do both road cycling and MTB and i find using a hardtail actually way more fun to ride on Dutch trails

    • @jasperverkuijl
      @jasperverkuijl  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well this trail doesn't really need any suspension but i just been to Amerongen and that was really nice to have this fully. I was riding with a buddy on a hard tail and I noticed a massive difference when going through corners with bumps etc, i was lots faster. Also it's way more comfortable. I have no recent experience on a hard tail so can't tell the difference myself....

    Je snelheid is niet te hoog, waarschijnlijk wel je bandenspanning te hoog zodat je te weinig grip hebt en minder snel de bocht kan maken. ;-)

      Jij kan dat zien vanaf thuis op de bank🤷🏼‍♂️ 🤣🤣
      Dit parcours is een mini mouse baantje, ik weet heel goed hoe hard ik wel of niet kan. Binnenkort een nieuwe video op deze bike op Amerongen en Den Treek, daar ga ik veel harder omdat het parcours zich daar ook voor leent. Zie ook mijn video op de Lage Vuursche singletrack in de sneeuw, zelfs daar kan ik veel harder rijden dan op dit baantje.
