That's a cool looking bike. I love my 1x12 hardtail for the same sort of rides you went on. What i dislike seeing is e bikes on flatish routes. Maybe I'm just ketting old and grumpy!
In any case the Santini gilet vest is wrong for this... that's how the mesh back pocket of mine got ripped apart the very first hour i wore it...and to reply at your question from an older video again...Santini never answered me back... Anyway, I end up in these type of areas all the time with my gravel bike as well but I do prefer my MTB or " monster" gravel bike anyway They can handle much more😊
Just about to take my Revolt down to the Hotchillee Stone Circle ride in Salisbury (will be wearing my UKGravelCo shirt on sign in), this weekend. I’m doing the 155km ride, as the 220 might be a bit of a push. Either way, having a gravel bike lets me enter this kind of event, as I wouldn’t fancy it on an MTB.
actually I am from Canada and I think you could turn any bike including a trike or a cruiser bike into a gravel bike if you put wider tires and more aggressive tire on
The only thing I hate to hear is "push bike".I do push mine when I have to but it's probably the most efficient machine mankind has ever invented(that's bikes in general).We all have a bike that's pretty good for everything. The keener we are the more bikes we have for specific terrain and/or events. The worst scenario for me is mud.I don't like cycling in it at all.This has caused me to narrow down my collection of bikes considerably but I still don't know what to call them individually.
I guess push bike comes from either the first "hobby horse" which was a plank and two wheels and no drivetrain or to differentiate from motor bikes. With you in the mud but where I live if I avoided it I'd only ride off road 2 months a year 😢
Gravel bikes, often never the perfect bike for each section of the ride but overall is the right choice for those rides that encompasses a bit of everything.
I bought a 11x1 speed mountain bike for work and trans penine. TBH 6 of the gears are worth jack. You peddle and get nowhere uphill, and downhill on the lowest gear you can't keep up.
Vitus called them ATB but everyone likes the sound of gravel more to be fair. It's a marketing thing. Road bikes can ride strade bianche but sounds odd calling them Some terrain bikes 😂

I've got an old 3 x 8 mountain bike with road tyres on, fantastic it is and quick.
Sweet, the bike you already have is always the best for the ride you are on 👍

Rode mtb before gravel and always hated the road sections, now tolerable so I can ride more remote bridleways without boredom.
100% with you there 👌
ATB all the way! great content,thanks
Cheers, thanks for your support 👌

True all rounder 👍

I'd call that a bit of bimblin' or womblin' 😊
I call mine a bridleway bike, as it's great on those.
or a modern road bike with 700c gravel tires and Tanus armor inserts

Perhaps Multi-surface bike, since ATB is already taken.
They should be renamed “A do it all bike “ Hardly a natty name though 😂
