What's your highlight from our first Eurobike video? 😍
Cadex ladie's shopping bike.
I could pump my tyres up to 80 psi in less than 50 seconds with my Aldi mini pump.....🤨
Topeak pump is nothing new, Cycplus has a better and smaller pump with pressure gauges and set-and-forget approach and Fumpa was making those small pumps for years.
After all the talk and speculation it is hilarious that Dylan actually wore those Batman glasses for no reason at all 😂😂😂
WBR deserves tonnes more press. We ride for fun, but the bike is an essential tool in many parts of the world. Getting to school, to work, to the doctor, or the market. What a beautiful bike on display there.
Speaking like it isn't essential absolutely everywhere lmao. I live in Montréal and bikes are taking up more and more space every year as an efficient every day utility vehicle.
If you go to my home, Copenhagen, I suppose you will be amazed even by the parking areas filled with bikes, and the amount of people using bikes in town at all times! An American Ambassador to Denmark: Carla Sands, during Trump🙄, claimed it was because "Danes couldn't afford to buy a car" (She wasn't thanked, when she left!)! Finn. Denmark
We also use proper Bike passes in each side of the road, not just a painted stripe, but a separate pass! And at places we use special traffic lights for bikes, being able to start before the cars, to show we are here, if intending to turn right! Finn. Denmark
Riding for fun is where it's at 🙌
@@finncarlbomholtsrensen1188 Yes, I know. It's one of many things I love about Danish - and Dutch - culture. I spent my first professional life working for a Dutch Anglo company.
The WBR reaches the community of my second profession, based in South East Asia. In Cambodia, for example, the bike is everything to a family. It's not uncommon to see a fifty-year-old bike still in working order and serving the many needs of its owner. African nations, I am told, are the same.
The WBR provides bikes to developing countries and it truly makes a difference.
I meant you no disrespect.
I could listen to Collin say “rubber cover” all day haha
The dual chain two-speed strikes me as an overly complicated design for a problem that was solved long ago: The old Bendix two-speed kickback IGH. Sturmey-Archer has been offering modern versions of this for years and still does, in both freewheel and coaster brake versions (the S2 and S2C).
Sturmey-Archer is not what I'd call cheap or reliable.
You can also get a Shimano Nexus 3-speed internal gear hub for like 40 euros, why would you get a setup that has double the wear?
@@rgudden90 I believe Buffalo are getting their double chain setup under a tenner. And wear you mentioned is not doubled, but devided between two chains because it is still only one chain under tension.
@@peteralexander6514 I have two bikes with the S-A SRF-3 hub. They have been completely reliable for more than a decade. While it’s true that later UK produced hubs were questionable due to worn out tooling, modern Sturmey-Archer hubs are great.
I imagine given the purpose of the Buffalo bike that more than just cost at point of manufacture was considered., like parts that don't need high precision/complex tooling and can either be stamped out of sheet metal at high volume or be replicated on a pre-war lathe in a tin shack in the back of beyond.
So am I right in that Continental showed a brand new presumably super aero tire, whilst Pirelli is reminding everybody that they are doing an awful job at F1?
I love the cheekiness of Park tool. 🤣🤣 from the pizza cutter, to the spork, to the bottle opener. 😅😅
But that chaintool is what every home mechanic should have, I bent my park chaintool pin pusher early on in it’s life and it’s taken me a while to track it down in bikeshops. 😤 I know you can order it in amazon but, I’d still love the prospect of going around bike shops to look for the smallest and weird things they have in their storefront. 😅😅
Great to hear your are supporting local bike shops 🙌
They make tools that work forever, not express, open, and throw away tools
Who remembers the Zipp Tangente tyres with dimples for aerodynamics?!
Vortex generators have been used for some time to improve the efficiency of wind turbine rotors. Now we're starting to do this with the continental front tires too.
Is this the future of bike tech?
Very cool design with Pro's aero handlebars and saddle.
Those aero tires remind me of some aero testing that found some knobby mountain bike tires more efficient than some popular gravel tires. Who’d have thought years ago a fat knobby low pressure tire as the racers choice today?
Do you remember which ones? And what about rolling resistance?
@@jmatulis92look at Dylan Johnson's bike explaination for Unbound
@@jmatulis92 I think he is talking about this years prep video for unbound from dylan johnson
Yup, also though of that one. But I have some extra thoughts as to why the conti 2.2 was faster then the other tyres. Being designed for mountain bikes with rim widths of 25-30mm, when mounted on a 21mm internal width rim Dylan used, they are narrower, but TALLER then they would've been otherwise. That probably means a more streamline shape, compared to the gravel tires which probably poke out much more sideways, rather than higher on the rim.
It's so cool how the tech world changes 🙌
The sunglasses beak reminds me of climbing / mountaineering sunglasses, the nose cover was to stop you getting sunburned.
With all that Classified talk you somehow forgot to mention TRP are seemingly launching a road groupset they previoulsy didn't have!
This is just part one 😉
@@gcntech "and it's mounted to something new, stay tuned for next videos" would be great to add to the script, ya know
Alex in the middle of Germany
Great presentation, thanks a lot!
Bulls is like the cheapest brands besides Decathlon, which are probably better.
I had some test rides of their gravel bikes. I had the same model . Both drove extremely different. Weldings were completely off. No grease on their parts. Completely new bike with a stuck seatpost (no joke). The cables were comical long.
That two chain bike is incredible
Pretty cool right!
Nice to See GCN @ Alex at EB 2024
I love it when someone uses a technical term in a way that demonstrates they have no ideas what the term means. A NACA duct is an opening in a particular shape designed to creat maximum airflow into a duct that’s placed on a flat surface. A NACA duct is not a wedge cut out of a tyre tread.
The title of this video gave me a start. For a second, I thought Amazon were releasing a new and upgraded version of their Eurobike (aka crap bike 2.0). 😀
I don’t think Amazon makes those bikes
Hahaha no but we would love to get the bike back on the channel 👀
My first thought was he was doing a factory tour for the Euro Bike 😂
For the bikebackers, hope you will touch on Pinion/belt drive bikes. Ease of maintence and dependable. When bikebaking all your gear, the extra weight of the gear box is worth it
The pump is still kinda useless. Too big to fit in the seat bag and if I can only use it at home, I might as well use a track pump.
Also the weight. What’s the point of a fast minipump anyway? If you happen to use it your race is definitely gone and you just try to finish. If it’s not in a race situation those seconds are irrelevant.
@@jonasviethif you're doing something like unbound, then a flat is both decently probable and not totally fatal to your race if you can address it quickly.
They are a dumb gimmick.
Topeak E-booster digital pump, ... Is it not released yet? Can't find any info on the Topeak website... ?
Given the success of press fit bottom brackets in carbon frames, integrated calipers sounds like it will create all kinds of reasons for concern...
We'll be watching this space 👀
And pure nightmare for mechanics when the time comes for maintenance.
System Integration and less standardisation is the wirst Thing that happend to customers the Last years.
The bulls ist great.
first time i heard about hydroformed titanium on cycling youtube channels🤤🤤🤤
Yeah just another way they can add 3000$ to the already steep price tag.
The pressure must be astonishingly high.
Glad we could shed some light 🙌
7:12. does anyone have any info on the new pro stealth evo superlight saddle? Looking to get a new bike saddle, but couldnt find any info on this one yet.
Any one else constantly watching all the background people?
Seth from Berm Peak did a great video on the Buffalo bike and why it’s designed the way it is. It’s a great watch and gives you a great perspective.
Pizza cutter. 13:54 just above bottle opener. Please da a full review.
My wife got me one 30 years ago. Still have it. Still works fine.
Why aren't so few gravel bikes updated with GTX 825 Di2?
Bulls is a Brand from germany which every experienced cyclist would never buy. I work as a salesmen at a bike shop and even when I got an offer for an ultraight roadbike with DA DI2 with DT Swiss Wheels and all Carbon frame for a bargain I decided to buy it and strip the frame, keep the parts and sell the framee afterwards. I rather sell our Scott and Cannondale bikes then the Bulls. Bulls bikes are cheap crap which are desgnied in a way to absolute maximize the profit of the company. But not for the good of the costumers, just for the companys. For example: their entry level gravel bikes come with traditional quick release axles, not with thru axles. On a disc brake bike. So no way to upgrade to better wheels afterwards. On the other hand Scott is selling every single gravel bike with thru axles and every standard we have in the industry. Bulls allways puts nice parts on the bikes where potential costumers can see it. But on spots where it is hidden they cheap out.
Replace Bulls with Cannondale and vice versa and it will make more sense.
@@feedbackzaloop It is not so. I sell both brands and rode them a lot and Cannondale is much better.
@@matthiasschmitt2311 I don't sell any and rode all three among others. Cannondale was the worst with Bulls simply middle of the pack.
@@feedbackzaloop I have a very broad overview over both brands cause I had several 100 of both of them in my hands.
@@matthiasschmitt2311 in your biased by dealership paycheck hands. Cheaper bikes are harder to push and not so rewarding to service, that's simply it.
I'm glad to see you covered the Buffalo bike it's nice to see something that has a larger contribution to the world's population, as well as the wonderful tech that most of us can't afford.
It's awesome that they are doing for the world through cycling 🙌
both the titanium bikes look gorgeous, just the other day i was wondering if trp were going to do more in the road scene, now i know...thank you.
yep i shall be looking forward to some new tech
It's like we knew 🔮
I saw some really cool tech at a booth called Desiknio, they somehow hacked the TRP levers to adjust the motor of a Mahle X20 and turn on and off the light of the bike. Its a cool gravel e-bike.
A 10mm spanner is probably more for 6mm, sometimes 8mm screws 😉 Hard to find on a bike anyway 😬
As per ISO 4014/4017, 8mm screws use 13 hex head and 6mm - yes - are 10mm. Usually come for mudguard mounts (onto fork crown, not legs)
@@feedbackzaloopthat must be one hell of a mudguard 😄 A single 6mm screw is capable of holding my car battery in place.
@@jonasvieth well, what actually holds the battery is its weight, the screwed on bracket only secures it. Also when this screw fails, you don't instantaneously become a skier like when a mudguard falls off and makes half rotation with the wheel (ask me how I know 😁)
There's more than enough space in that Cadex TT bike for a large battery and a motor! (5:46)
I feel like we all just need to take a step back from bike tech.
We've sorta perfected the "2 wheel human powered vehicle". Right now, it all feels like diminishing returns and benchmarking.
If it isn't innovation, I honestly don't care anymore.
How do they hook up the hydraulic lines to the brakes shown on that first bike? The one where they are integrated into the frame.
The main challenge for a disc brake calliper is heat dissipation, so wrapping it in frame can't be a good idea, no matter how pretty it might seem.
I still love those 4 "spoke" carbon wheels .. but ever since your video with the .. i think it was the Hotas TT bike - i am not sure ii would (even if i could) get one of those .. i remember the extreme wobble of the front wheel ..
The two chain design is quite interesting - but seems to suffer from a lot of friction - or at least, i assume that 2 chains add quite some resistance.
Is it me or was the Chinese bike show much more impressive?
.... Yes. By far. Those Conti aero tires will take over though. If they do work better, that's a big deal.
7:12 both of my bikes have the same pro stealth! curious about this new one 👀
Some Cool Products On Show 🖖
You can always rely on Eurobike for cool tech 🙌
I’d love to have that E cargo bike
Very curious to ebikes there!
Bulls bike are mainly known for winning cape epic mtb race
When is the Topeak pump going to be available?
Great video! Can you please check out the trimm two bike computer?
Love this kind of content!!
We do too! So fun heading to these events 🙌
The bulls bike that you picked is unexpected - but not for the technical reasons you might have in mind:
This brand, which is understandably not known outside of Germany, is a private brand of the ZEG: The ZEG, also only active in Germany, is an organisation initiated by small retailers to allow for larger market power, so as to reduce prices for purchasing supply parts, materials etc. At several points, ZEG launched their own bike brands which would usually be characterised by offering reliable mid-range bikes for middleclass consumers. Examples are Pegasus or abovementioned Bulls.
Strikingly, Bulls seem to want to present upperclass / concept bike stuff now :D
I would have never expected that, thanks for showing!
ZEG dealers are usually not small.
@@einundsiebenziger5488 well, compared to discounters and online-shops they are.
That was a beautiful, beautiful ti’ bike
Fire this guy!
The bottle opener: Adding a 10 mm spanner, won't that guarantee you'll never find the thing when you need it, or does that only apply to sockets?
Why does that Giant Trinity have such a big gap between the aero seat tube and the rear tire? Was it designed for 32c tires or something?
It's not really hard to work out is it? Anything on that bike, is the way it is, because it's more aero that way.
The idea is to put the seat stays behind the rider legs so air in between moves more freely.
@@AndrewisTri-tn1uo The whole point of doing a curved, indented seat tube is to have the tire tuck in there and have a smooth air transition from the front of the tube, over the tire and down the rim.
@@briankelly3568 Talking about the curved seat tube, not the seat stays. Yes, the seat stays are using the concept first seen on the British Hope track bike. I get it.
TRP is also collabing with Bosch ebike for auto shifting. It would be cool if they become a player competing with the other 3 giants.
We'll be watching this space 👀
I just discovered another advantage of mbs...I went to change my first flat (dreading it...) and lo and behold...the tire just came off the wheel. I didn't have time do anything🎉🎉😅 my favorite thing so far is the electric pump 😅
There are some upsides to riding mountain bike 👀
Internal gear hubs such as the Shimano Nexus series can be quite heavy compared to other options.
I thought I would find someone making titanium versions but I didn’t. Too expensive? Or is titanium not well suited for that application?
10:32 The two gear/chain system on the Buffalo could have been done better. DBS (Den Beste Sykkel) Norwegian bike manufacturer started in 1932 made the classic DBS Kombi bike in the 70´s, it also had a two gear system engaged with a much shorter back-pedal but it was hidden in the rear hub. I think its called Duomatic. I see a lot of new hubs like this online, why not just use them instead? 99 bucks on Amazon...
Sad that Pirelli has the new pzero race RS only in tubeless....
Hambini took a closer look at the Scope 3-d printed hubs and found them to be pretty rough. The machining was poor and the there may have been insufficient material in the spoke holes for proper machining.
Buffalo Bike 2 speed. Schwinn had a 2 speed "kick back" rear hub decades ago (1960's, maybe earlier). I had a Schwinn Corvette II with that hub, wish I still had that bike. Just kick back slightly before braking and it would shift.
Can we take a look at Ffwd new wheel set
13:12 Park Tool are wrong: the Pedro’s Tutto & Tutto 2 have had a Campag peening tool for about 15 years.
This 400 mm new Pirelli tire, is it foldable?
Giant finally present there? Or just their Tri bikes?
3D printed hub shells YESSSS
Imagine printing at so low resolution you need to deburr parts in another country.
The cadet bike looks like if you trick out city bike with tri bars
Please do TSB
Ha the first bike with a calipers moulded into a frame. When it goes replace the whole frame😅
Sleep bed visor?
maybe some aston engineer pulled a weekend of overtime for those calipers
Is ICE or Catrike there?
Good onya Fred
Show us Hall 9 😂
Did you go to the footy?
Is the sound a little weak?

Oooof shots fired!
what is the park number for the spork?! SK1??
hi, it is the SPK-1 ! 🍴
@@gcntech Hah! btw "Park" number was not a typo...
That Scicon noseguard in the glasses is almost identical the the Scott noseguard for their ski goggles in the 80's. Not a new idea.
TWO CHAINZ
no love for the spork?!
that isn't the latest red groepset on Blummenfelt's bike
... groupset*
Wowza that Bulls bike.... I had a Bulls frame years ago, I approve of their quality and general bomb-proofedness.
Of course the Schwalbe Clik Valve
50 seconds do not help when the battery is empty or you have forgotten the thing at home because it is not mounted to the bike.

Are you going to watch any football whilst there mate?!
Prominent😊
4:20 Paging Pump-Action Francis at Cade Media!
5:52 that is not the latest Sram Red Alex, shake my head. Wish they would just release the gold chains to plebs though.
Classified. Because why you should say no to something you don't need it, if it makes you feel better? Seems legit.
Pirelli should focus on making tires that don't wobble - then venture into other areas. I'm absolutely disappointed in their gravel-h tires, from now on gonna stick to Schwalbe and Conti.
3:26 okay so i was partly right and partly wrong. i'd say that's not too bad for someone who is kinda new to aerodynamics.
i was right about the fact that they are creating turbulance specifically to help aerodynamics but i thought it was to help with the aerodynamics of legs or the frame so i was wrong about that.
Cool, so the you were right about the obvious?
Premium content❤
Classified TRP drivetrain is a joke right? "Not new technology, but what is new is to make a drivetrain setup integrated and work seemlessly together" so a drivetrain? a drivetrain that works together is just a functional drivetrain? this "seemless drivetrain" has "QuAnTuM ShIfTiNG?" and it differs to any other seemless drivetrain how? "quantum shift makes makes it so when you shift through the gears and up the cassette, the drivetrain will automatically change gears" - SOOOO A NORMAL DRIVETRAIN?
I can pump my tires up to 80psi in like 2 seconds using good old Co2 cartridges 🤷
That's not a mini pump though or re usable 😅
@@GCNalex Obviously! but punctures are so rare these days (at least for me) that it's worth the convenience of using a single Co2 cartridge every 2 years or so
How many times can Alex use the word 'incredible?'
Firstly, things that exist are mostly credible and secondly, other superlatives exist.
integrated disc calipers is too good for the bike industry, only cheap stuff for ppl who spend 10's of thousands of dollars on crappy bikes
