Unspectacular, though very crucial | VCC goes Festive 500 2023
It is almost an obligation to ride the Rapha Festive 500 challenge each year between Christmas Eve and New Year. Eight days, 500 kilometres to cover. This year, I was not too certain whether I'm able to ride my bike at all due to some conditions.

22.2 mm MTB shifter mount to 31.8 mm mount work around | VCC

This video is an addition to the main video (Giant Boulder retro MTB to 1 by gravel bike conversion | VCC) and shows in detail my solution on how to attach a standard MTB shifter to a road drop handlebar for a bargain. Of course, it has its downfalls but so far I am quite pleased with this solution which to this point works quite good. Follow me on STRAVA: www.strava.com/athletes/6244747 Join t...

      Hey, what do you mean by installing it nicely? Do you refer to the grey strap and the workaround I did at my particular setup? If your setup allows you to do it the "right" way then I would do so. Aero bars or not aerobars are no matter, it works for both. Cheers VCC

    Nice conversion. If I may make a suggestion for your shifting if you're not happy with the MTB trigger shifter, look into one of the Chinese groupsets. Sensah SRX Pro, for instance, is a reasonably priced drop bar 11 speed gravel groupset that can handle cassettes as large as 51t.

    • @Velodicted
      @Velodicted Před 5 měsíci

      Thanks, and also thanks for your suggestion. You are right, the Sensah SRX Pro is a valuable option compared to grx etc, but I consider its pricing, although cheaper than the established brands, pricy compared to my deore mtb setup. And also shimano has definitely the edge when it comes to reliability and shifting performance also stated by CZcamsr Trace Velo. But sure, it's worth a consideration. Cheers

    • @Velodicted

      Hallo Jan, deine Beobachtung ist richtig und gilt für die aktuelle Version des frontloaders. Ich hingegen habe Version 1 in der es tatsächlich (auch nach Manual) so wie ich es im Video zeige, richtig ist. Die Anmerkung gab es bereits durch einen Viewer, darauf hin habe ich das Manual hier (twitter.com/ChannelVcc/status/1394385188751384577) zur Verfügung gestellt (Achte auf das Schaubild in der linken unteren Ecke). Du kannst es noch mal abgleichen, wenn du magst :) Das Design wurde, denke ich, aus Gründen geändert. Ich vermute, dass es mit dem neuen Design, also dass der Harnisch nach vorne hin die Öffnung hat und mit den Verschlüssen geschlossen wird, besser ist. Der Nutzer kommt einfach viel besser heran. Neben den im Video genannten Einschränkungen kann ich den frontloader empfehlen. Gruß VCC

Darüber hinaus kann ich mir vorstellen, dass das Felgenmodell langsam aber sicher ausgemustert wird. Zu wenige kaufen sich ein neues felgengebremstes Rad. Ggf steht eine neue Iteration für 2023 an.

    Why you cut the steering pipe? Only because of safety and look purposes?

    • @Velodicted
      @Velodicted Před rokem

      when you are totally safe you don't need the excess anymore. But it isn't just the looks. If the excess is too long. The inserted expansion plug can not do its job properly since it barely reaches the area where the stem is sitting. Conversely, the expansion mainly occurs ahead of the stem where only the spacers counteract. This is far from ideal. So it is threefold, for the looks, for safety and to prevent catastrophic failure/damage. Cheers VCC

    • @Velodicted

      according to the official information given by Topeak, the bag in all three available sizes can carry loads up to 5 kg. I wouldn't worry so much about exceeding the advised max weight in terms of the bag's durability. The bag is very rugged however too much weight could result in a collapse of the bag's shape. But if you keep the heavy parts as close as possible to the seat post and light, voluminous stuff further away, you could get away with more than 5 kg I suspect. Cheers

    Hi, how narrow your handlebars are? Im considering to use the system on my road bike with 40cm wide handlebars.

    • @Velodicted
      @Velodicted Před 3 lety

      it has been 42cm. 40cm consequently limits you a little bit more.

    can you reccommend a brand that would score better for bikes with drop bars?

    • @Velodicted
      @Velodicted Před 3 lety

      Ortlieb recently launched a new product (ORTLIEB HANDLEBAR PACK QR) with a different approach. Basically, all bags with a non sausage roll principle are maybe the item you are looking for. In the given example you enter the compartment from the top and close it with the typical "three times roll" -watertight closure mechanism. It's pricy but also offers 11L space. If you browse the web you will very likely find some good alternatives to the Ortlieb. I hope my hint was a little bit helpful. Best Regards VCC

    is your bike suitable for bodybuilders(130kg)?

    • @Velodicted
      @Velodicted Před 3 lety

      this particular bike would handle 130km, the rims are built sturdy. Only lightweight components do have a weight limit recommendation and the brand always provides this information. But in this case, it's safe to say they will handle fairly easy heavy riders.

    Great Video and insights - thanks for this. Do you have an example of bikes from other more matured brands for 2000€? Thanks a lot
