I picked myself a 2nd hand Rose Xeon , Di 2 , Fulcrum wheels , Just changing the rear cassette from a 28 tooth to a 34 tooth to get up the hills a bit easier , An awesome bike , An Awesome price
If you're going to pay all that money for the Storck, at least make sure you put front tyre / wheel on the right way round! (check the tread pattern at 0:48)
Serious Bikes is a German brand with such bikes as their Valparola X gravel bike. About 600 €. Serious Bikes are German designed yet toward the budget/beginner/commuter end of the wallet.
After few years on carbon bike frame, I am inclined to have a new titanium bike, too many issues with not up to standard tolerances with carbon frames. Steel and titanium is forever, very comfortable and forgiving.
Well, we don't have only 'brands' in Germany. If you are a real enthusiast about cycling you should try a Vigmos. Just pick a frame, submit your anatomical body sizes and you get a frame individually welded to suit your needs.
that's an interesting story... years ago the German bike industry was dead, the old brands like Hercules, Patria, NSU... had died; and now you have Storck, Canyon, Cube, Focus, Stevens, Ghost, Benotti, Radon, Corratec, and more
I’m enjoying the bike so far th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA My only real complaints are the brakes and the pedals. I feel like a bike designed for bigger people should have much larger pedals and more heavy duty brakes. I’ve only gotten two really good rides out of it, minimal downhill action, and the brakes feel like they’re already going out. A larger person has more momentum, so I think this wasn’t thought through very well. Also, I wear size 13-14 wide shoes. My feet cramp up on these pedals that are clearly made for smaller feet. Since I’m not a pro rider (and I don’t think many are who purchase this bike) I don’t think that the straps on the pedal are necessary at all. None of this takes away from the enjoyment I get from riding, however. I’ll just head to a bike shop to improve on a few things.
Awesome piece. Thanks for the video mate! Would you happen to have any tips, reviews on what German bike I could possibly get for say 500Euros, since I'm on a budget and not a pro ? Thanks
@road.cc : you definetaly forgot to Show the AX Lightness VIAL EVO (BENOTTI BIKES): one of the stiffest AND lightest frames / bikes in the market HANDMADE IN GERMANY (the ones you Showed are all NOT made in Germany only „Designer“)
I got lucky and found a used Visioner C... 2016 with 105, R23 Spline, Condition like new, got it for € 1.000,- It is worth the price, stiff and fast like hell, it reacts perfect!! But check out their website, bikes starting there at about 1800 bucks. Regards
We definitely like Cube bikes but we had to draw the line somewhere. There is probably scope to do another six of the best or an updated list if there is enough demand
Cube - sure! Ghost - something in between the two. Focus - no, unless you are an anorexic. All Focus bikes are rated to 110kg load, including the bike itself, the rider and the luggage. Something fit for Gulliver on some of his travels, but not for adult humans.
i'm 183cm in height, 83kg in weight. i'm considered the heavier weight class of asians. most male in my country weight 55-65kg in average. so, 110kg total weight tolerance is pretty achievable
On the other hand there are some good GB-brands, that are unfortunately hardly available here in Germany - and will not become better after brexit, i guess
You have already given our car industry to Germany yes lets carry on and buy our bikes from there too!!! Your Grandparents fought for nothing!! Buy British!! Give our children a future in manufacturing something other than stats!!!

Ah... the good old times when disc brakes were just an option over the "normal" rim brake bikes!

Don't forget CUBE - the best brand.

Ghost se4000 Owned for 10 yrs still ride it smooth reliable
Great bikes, nice vid, good one guys
I think Merida is Designed in Germany baut built in Taiwan. Correct me if im wrong.
I purchased a bombtrack beyond 1 2020 best bike I've ever had 👍
That storck though 🧐👍🏿
Cube Bikes. Engineered in Bavaria and are awesome
yes, good bikes, good value for money... if only they would not use these horrible color schemes...
Agreed I got the nu road pro and I am loving it.
@@fiddleronthebike Agree about the colours. They're too many and too busy and will age the bike in no time.

Serious Bikes. For example, the Valparola X gravel bike.
I can't think of a German beer I'd buy, though I do like the cars.
German monastic beers are just, well, heavenly! Amen!
Zwick'l by Bayreuther Aktienbrauerei should get you hooked easily.
Isn't there a Bitter named Smith in England? Love me some Boddington's....
German bikes are the best

Timo Schäfer Focus is made in Germany:)
Canyon too. Canyon bikes where designed and build in Koblenz, Germany.
@@PeterMuller-uy2jl …imho, as he stated, the frames are made in Asia….
@@fastboss4266 …imho, as he stated, the frames are made in Asia….
STEVENS !!!
YES!
Storck - Absolute not worthy for that price!!! Over pricing!!!
You could buy a car for that!!

Has anyone heard of the Windt Bike and if so what info do you have on it?
Is the tires any good?
Why would you advertise that you live in Dalston?
Radon
Where are Corratec Frames made?
Anyone ever heard of Mifa AG Torrek Performance 7 I'm looking at maybe buying one. Never heard of them here in the U.S.A.
running, throwing, lifting big things, TESLIK.
Canyon😍
Check Falkenjagd and Rennstahl!
What about other brands? Cube for example
We definitely like Cube bikes but we had to draw the line somewhere. There is probably scope to do another six of the best or an updated list if there is enough demand
What about Nicolai???
I’ll have to say none of them had the sex appeal of the Italian brands 🤔
You forgot the biggest German brands: Stevens and Cube
Diamant
Which of these would be a Porsche, and what model Porsche would the bike be
That's a good question, we think it might be the Canyon Ultimate
Storck doesnt sell cheap bikes.
Storck - Porsche 911
Canyon - VW or so....
C'est vrais que leurs magazins de vélo regorge de magnifique machine dont les superbe vélo Patria introuvable en France.
Great bikes, all but one, boring matt black. Bike manufacturers need to introduce some level of color and distinction. .
True, however we plan to celebrate the bikes that are more colourful soon
blame the consumers they love it more than colorful frames
That's why I bought a neon green caad 12 :)
"You can choose any color you like as long as it is black" (Henry Ford 1923)
I own a flat black bike and have had numerous comments on its looks. And they were compliments.
Cube Is the Best
rabbit titan bikes or rose !
Rabbit bikes are known to hop between the gear sprockets.
Cube - sure! Ghost - something in between the two. Focus - no, unless you are an anorexic. All Focus bikes are rated to 110kg load, including the bike itself, the rider and the luggage. Something fit for Gulliver on some of his travels, but not for adult humans.
Anorexic? 110kg is well over the average mans weight unless you are talking about Polynesians
i'm 183cm in height, 83kg in weight. i'm considered the heavier weight class of asians. most male in my country weight 55-65kg in average. so, 110kg total weight tolerance is pretty achievable
In gearmany we dont have Lederhosen. That have only some Bayern.
Sorry for my Bad englisch.
Austrian and Italian Tyroleans wear lederhosen too.

Good video. Please get rid of background music - the cancer of many youtube videos.
Colourful ...
Canyon ! ♥️
Problem is the euro rate makes them even more expensive in the uk
staying in the EU and adopting the Euro could be a solution ;-)
Hahahaha
Livi 120 Shitty £ causes that half of Europe buys bikes and components from UK, so please, keep your pound low ;).
On the other hand there are some good GB-brands, that are unfortunately hardly available here in Germany - and will not become better after brexit, i guess
and ax-lightness..
What are the fenders on the Focus. Nice and minimalistic
Focus worked with a company called Curana to develop their own
Steel is real
I just bought a Top Life Rowan bike
Is it the Rowan Atkinson model?
Silverback? Cube?
Lightweights
I don't care how nicely you put it on the road bikes the prices are to over kill...
5 disc brakes , 1 rim brake ... wow ...
Not a conscious decision but I think it's clearly a sign of how things are going
Danube, bike: @
Ghost?
CUBE
Corratec
I thought Merida is German tech?
no Taiwan
Reyes Martinez ok....it says designed and engineered in Germany, made in Taiwan
Designed in Germany, Made in Taiwan. As always.
Any bike over 3000 Euro is overpriced for what you get.
try and buy one no chance
?
Six German bikes? Lightweight, Ax-Lightness, Storck, Rotwild, Schmolke, Cube
they are Chinese bikes rebranded
Are they made in Asia and assembled in Germany? If so, they cannot be called German bikes!
This could be the case for a lot of bikes, might mean we could have four versions of Asian bikes though 😂
well...so there are almost no bikes which can be called British or Italian or American or....
Bought a used HM Boomer ..can find no info.
Efficient
first
What a pile of stupid toys.
you're welcome!
You have already given our car industry to Germany yes lets carry on and buy our bikes from there too!!! Your Grandparents fought for nothing!! Buy British!! Give our children a future in manufacturing something other than stats!!!
british bikes & german bikes are both manufactured in Asia....only the headquarters are in UK or Germany....makes no difference
*import German stereotype here*

Pretty sure I spelled that wrong
