Hey everyone! We hope you enjoyed the video. Obviously it's a little different but we are still super new to this and to us it feels like an important part of the overall journey. We love any type of feedback, thoughts and questions you might have. It means a lot and actually helps us to be more visible on TH-cam. We are not only new to bicycle touring but also that whole video thing and it's not as easy as it might look. Thank you so much for your support! Arev & Mathias
About derailleur mount: If it's make of steel, you can bend it, If it's from aluminum... big risk. You defiantly can find any type of mount. Even for 25 years old bicycle. Of coarse only for changeable aluminum mount. Steel mount is not changeable. You can find every thing in Ali--express for 3-5 dollar... I think I have seen already all your episodes, And I can say: Your video production has improved tremendously in the last year. Although already as beginners, it was quite well.
Wow, it looks like you two have had more bad weather and more mechanical problems in your first few weeks of touring than my wife and I have had in all our touring (over almost 10 years now). But you have a great attitude, which will stand you in good stead for the rest of your journey. Stay safe, and happy trails!
Fingers crossed! Thanks Peter. Well our bikes are about 10 years old on average, so that might be part of the problem, but now we feel we are in a good place with them. And about the weather, we would probably not start in November in France again, but we've made it, right? :-D
Maaaaaarseeeeeilllleeeeee !!! Oh. It touched me. Make a bit nostalgic to think about trip bike. And make me laugh. This one is really good for me, well rythmed ! Bravo.... and " this guy has really put something in the tree ?? "^^
Totally! We saw a video recently of another couple that had been touring the same part of the route and it was so interesting how their perception differed from ours in many ways even though we all just passed through.
Hallo ihr Zwei, ein richtig kurzweiliges Video, ich mag Stadtführungen. Habe nur nicht verstanden, ob der Rahmen nun neu geschweisst wurde, oder was gemacht wurde. Aber scheinbar hats geholfen. Früher oder später - wenn man die anderen Weltreisenden so verfolgt - kommt ihr um ein neues Rad auch nicht Drumrum. Aber bis dahin noch ne gute Reise.
Hey Fred, danke für dein Feedback! Wurde so gut wie möglich angewärmt und dann in die korrekte Stellung gebogen. Nicht 100% perfekt, aber wir konnten eine immense Verbesserung des Schaltverhaltens erzielen.
Well done! Working through problems with bikes, learning to cooperate with each other under stress (perhaps a side of yourselves you have not seen before?), navigating in cities! The warnings of Marseille remind me of another traveler's story. In city "A" he was told that he should be very careful in city "B" as they are all thieves and murderers. When he arrived in city "B" they were shocked that he made it out of city "A" alive, because everyone knows they are all thieves and murderers. Good Journey.
Hey Randy! Yes, learning to do just that, instead of not killing each other, is actually one of the many reasons we are doing this! Trying to overcome prejudice is another and probably much harder to achieve as we see ourselves falling in that trap all the time.
Thank you Clare! We are actually quite happy with comfort but on the other hand lack experience with other types of bicycles. As far as we understand it's hard to say something general about saddles since all butt (bones) are different, but that is maybe the thing with a leather saddle: over time it will fit better and better.

Thank you so much. Yes, we come a long way in some ways 🤣
Arev's bike is all steel, so we could bend it back in position.

We miss you two! Hope you are doing great. We did not stop to double check, but it sure looked like it.
Another great video. I didn't want it to end. Thank you very much. You are amazing :)
Wow, thank you! Don't worry, there is a lot more to come! :-)
Thank you, great video!
Thank you Glenn, glad that you liked it! The next one will be quite the cycling adventure :-D
Danke wieder für das Video! Freuen uns auf das nächste! ❤
Und wir erst! Danke ;-)
Another great video. Thanks for creating it.
Glad you enjoyed it! We'll keep them coming ;-)
Funny how you rediscover your country when it's seen through the eyes of people from another country :-) Thanks!
Totally! We saw a video recently of another couple that had been touring the same part of the route and it was so interesting how their perception differed from ours in many ways even though we all just passed through.
Happy to see you fixed the bikes! Should make km fly. Good luck, mucha suerte, viel glück
That's the plan, thank you!
We love you both guyz, its really an amazing tour we watch and enjoy. Waiting for new Videos🔥🔥🔥
Thank you so much 😁 Working on it!
Sometimes you need nothing more than an angel. The magical french bike-mechanic was one of them.
Absolutely! They have been brilliant and we learned a lot!

I enjoy your videos! How have you found the overall comfort of using a Brooks saddle? I'm looking to possibly get one! 🙂

Did you say negro countries?😂
No, I believe that would be offensive. Maghreb en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maghreb
