the pose @3:50 for the freehub sound check is super pro. Saddle hooked around the neck like it's no big deal! nice work
The Squid paint jobs are insanely cool. I'd love one myself.
Insane how carelessly it was painted.
thank you Squid for doing things just a bit different 🦑
love the Squid Squad! great to see one of their bikes over here on GCN tech
Thanks for the extended length freehub sound check!
this bike and the whole squid crew are cool defined.
Great video! Please feature more ladies' pro bikes!
Nice hahahah at least there is that hub sound check hahaha
Sweet ass bike homies!
Good job on the weight check. The bike stayed straight and balanced
So great to see this bike get featured!
8.7k! this is HEAVY!
And we'd still lose any ranking by weight·distance_ridden.
Awesome looking CX bike,massively oversized alloy tubes,i love Aluminum.
Seriously cool bike
Some brilliant kit on this bike. So much to like even tho I am not an alu fan
Awesome, maybe even Super Awesome!
Sounds good! Ha!
I love you guys, Jeremy's energy is sensational. Alas, for the second time, your videographer is not dealing with his ISO settings with aplomb. The bike was either burning and the closer shots were underexposed. This otherwise excellent video looks amateurish.
Hugues Québécois thnx
Looks like a tank with an electric 🎨 job!
So nice!
Super nice Bike
Love the paint job! Wish I had something like that on my commuter
Get yourself over to spray.bike 👍🏻
@@rob-c. thanks a bunch! Probably going to order from them.
Dale Zapple it’s on my to-do list for this year (had planned to do it last year). They recommend 20+ degrees C temp when applying it for the best finish, so going to have to wait for the weather to warm up a bit! 🙂
Looking good,
Why is the paint flaking off all over the bike?
Because it's a race bike. It gets raced, packed, unpacked, thrown, crashed, crammed and ridden like it was stolen... so. Go Squid!!
Red frame with green highlight going into gold.From front to back.
This bike is so gnarly! That design is mint.
Which side is front brake ?
New GCN check :)
Why do US riders us CB pedals, but European riders mostly SPD?
I didn't know there was a measurable divide, but if so - it's a great question.
CB is generally a better all around pedal (opinon i know) -- but they don't sponsor a lot of big teams, or big riders. Shimano is all over the pro teams on the road, CX, and pro mtb. I imagine there is more sponsorship dollars and equipment commitments being thrown around in Europe -- whereas in the US riders tend to choose some parts based on preference vs sponsor dollars. (or the dollars aren't high enough with certain components to beat out personal preference).
Katie Compton, who is not sponsored, and is American, chooses SPD: th-cam.com/video/iZ79ac1BejQ/w-d-xo.html That's all I know ... so I bought the same pedals she uses to win on - instead of Crank Brothers - for gravel riding.
Weight comparisons that don't include cleats usually favorably show CB. Once you made a purchase (e. g. some eggbeaters), you'd stay with a brand. And anything SPD is easier to get in Europe. My guess.
Shimano SPD are the more reliable system as far as I know. I personally use Time ATAC for CX they have the best mud clearance when mud is really sticky or icy.
Cool
Is that a lead alloy frame?
OK So why does the bike have a shifter on the left brake lever unit. No front derailleur, no dropper post, what int eh world does it do?
Sami's using Sram Red Etap AXS which uses the left shifter to shift up the cassette, the right shifter to shift down the cassette, and both shifters at the same time to shift the front mech (if you're using one). Si goes into a bit more information here: gcn.eu/eTapAXS Thanks for watching!
Keep the sound check! What was the frame material?
Hi Kenny. The frame is 6061 Aluminum.
i want to see copper one
measure it wrong, it should be effective toptube mate not along the toptube
Is it aluminium? For a pro?
Angus Stoneham why not?
That's right - the frame is 6061 Aluminium.
Squid only builds in alu, so yeah, for a pro. It’s an under-rated material these days.
Squid Games Coming from 2021!
The paint is cool but is very amuturish in places.
Agree, I think Spay.Bike is meant to be fun to make, but not long lasting. I've seen plenty of paint chips in the video
Amateurish.
@@ronwhite8503 Thanks dude!
That's kind of the point with Squid and Spray.bike... it's a bit of the anti-pro, anti-slick look - more street cred, artiist, unique, and most importantly frugal approach. that's exactly what makes it dope.
@@burkeculligan4756 oh nice, I shall look in to that then
those welds and painting ...She made it ? :D
Klimasss chipping and bubbling throughout
Curious, how much welding experience do you have?
@@OMCbuilt 1:03 , rest of welds are ok
ok? nah that's some good welding doen right there
awsome look but soo heavy.
my alloy trek crockett with 105 is 8.2kg
Because trek uses actually some quality alloy butted tubing... id take that bike any day over the cheap alloy of this bike.
Luuk Rutten Alpha Alloy 💪🏼
?@@luukrutten1295 The crocket isnt really the strongest bike though, I've broken two of them. They also find a way to be flexy in all the wrong places (drivetrain) Squids are built in the US by the folks who build Ventana, its built to last, and from test riding one, stiffer in the drivetrain. The crocketts a fine bike (I still have a third) but its far from a prime cross race bike.
@@anotherjaunt2492 the Squidcross is still made from 6061 alloy and not the better 7005 or 7020 tubing. Flexy Drivetrain? Still won the SSCXWC against Squid so can't be that bad but I would love to ride both to compare them.
That is definitely not my aesthetic.
hey, there's not crying in baseball and there's not talking during free hub sound check.... just kidding, but not really.
watched the video 2x...no mention of frame material
The frame is made of 6061 Aluminium.
For me this frame is quite uninspiring. Very plain aluminium, crude welds. paint chipping off everywhere... great look from a distance but not up close.
First
Watch this bro...u r so early

Code Smashers no
😑
Courtesy never harmed anyone
Not having the cyclist stick around to explain her own bike, is the worst example of blatant mansplaining I’ve seen. And this is not the first time GCN have done this. I’m not blaming you Jeremy 🥰 I’m just very disappointed that GCN would treat women cyclists like this 🤨
dude stop white knighting maybe she din't feel up it....
She talked about what was clearly her favourite part of the bike
They do the same thing with every male rider too.
