  • I just got this new bike, so come along with me open it up and put it together, and take it for a test ride at a neighborhood park; Ridgewood's Highland Park in Brooklyn, New York. In there you'll find some short offroad trails and bike paths, not really big enough for a long ride, but good to spend a little bit of time in before work.

      awesome! I have the Wahoo Element Bolt (the older one) they have a new Element Bolt 2 out, but mine has been performing fine so I havent upgraded yet. I like wahoo's ecosystem of parts, pairs well with a wahoo heart monitor if you want to get one of those

      @@Flyboard12345 Yes, 80mm. Its a great starter gravel bike! I actually ended up selling it to purchase a carbon bike with higher tier components. But it is a great bike for what it is for the price.

      hell yeah! its a great bike, but I'm already finding myself wanting a little more gears on the top cog, just because the bike is so heavy that climbing is a bit difficult. I'm looking into getting a shimano 12-42 cassette to replace the 11-32 it came with.

      @@nickbaumcycling i was thinking of the possibility do buy the scott gravel 40, but it was coming with yellow(i dislike), that had more gears/+price, but since im like a beginner, maybe it fits me. I'm thinking about riding mainly in road, 20-30km/s , will see . How much is to add that upgrade? The shop told me to upgrade this one would cost me like 300 euros

    How's the fit? I hear they run a little big. Thanks in advanced!

    • @nick-kassebaum

      The fit is true to size and comparable to Canyon. I'm 5'8 and got a Small, which is their 51. I have fitted a 51 other brands as well. A lot of retailers carry Scott, so if you order one online, it couldn't hurt to go into a shop and try on a Foil or an Addict. I ride an Addict road, and its almost identical to this gravel bike in frame geometry and fit.

      @nick-kassebaum I'm 5'11 and usually run a 56. I was dead set on a Cervelo Apero, which is a really dope bike, but I felt pain in my pockets when it came time to pay. Lol
