Why does Jimmi look like he is gonna rob the Mccallisters?
😂
😂😂😂😂😂
It's the "we still think about you, you lil bastard" it's what really does it! Haha
4:38 to be precise 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
thats “was” my built bike SWORKS VENGE, previously sagan paint, repainted by a professional, logo was oddly finished, 😂😂😂, thanks for the feature though! 😂😂😂
That s works logo looks like a China sworks. I'd get that redone
sold already hahaha
@@BikesKomsCROwhat makes a china logo??? I’m looking into getting a real Venge and what do I need to know?
@@allisgood.6191 Best bet is take the serial number to a specialized dealer, they can check if its legit.
7:57 NOW I CANT UNSEE THAT
4:44 "No one ever suspects a cyclist with drugs" Apparently, Francis never heard of a certain guy from Texas, who has 7 look-a-like yellow jerseys!
Exactly !
All the competitive cyclists I know doped or at least planned to ... Personally I think it's the worst sport for doping.
@@LaurentiusTriarius "the worst sport for doping." or "the sport with the worst doping."?
@@savagepro9060 the doping was pretty good 😂
I reckon Crown Green Bowling is pretty rubbish for doping (unless it’s weed 😂)
The thing on the Elves that bugged me was that he didn't have the tyre logo's lined up with the valves. Absolutely criminal!!! 😀
Yesss more of this series pls!
I liked the ELVES. Congratulations to all bikers owners, I am pretty sure they love their bikes, no matter what others say. Happy riding!
I do so :)
Curve Belgie is a bit on the generic side. Their road and gravel bikes are. But their GMX+ 29er drop bar bike is very cool
why do you guys not like planet x? I've had a planet x titanium fram for seven years, the geometery of which was actually designed by Mark Reilly of Reilly works and the frame comes from the Walty factory in China. It's been a great light bike
Because they are snobs.
I've done 23,000 miles on my Planet x and it is still great.
which frame did you get?
@@paulm5662 Holdsworth Super Professional.
I don't think they offer it any longer.
@@paulm5662 The original frames designed by Mark Reilly were: The Spitfire (the raod bike), the Hurricane (the endurance frame) and the Tempest (thw gravel frame (a bit ahead of it's time really and originally 2x). I got the Spitfire. Once all replaced all the alloy finishing kit with carbon it weighs at just on 7kg. The only thing slowing it down is me. The penalty for going with the road fram back in 2017 is, no disc brakes and only tyre clearance for 25s
I have a titanium road frame from them, for about 10 years. The ti proroad, that preceded the frames designed by M Reilly. It´s still as good as new, many thousands of km later.
I did that race against Jonathan’s single speed slate. Didn’t realize there was a single speed in the bunch. That’s nuts!
Howdy! You doing that race again this year. I'll be there again. With gears this time.😂
hey, dunno if someone already pointed out, but you can buy flush topcap for Canondale headset - part number is KP253, i think it's for 15eur or something like that
I bikepacked the Colorado Trail Race on a Single Speed. Ssp is great for out of the saddle climbing, maybe no the best choice when carrying 35lbs of camping & cooking gear though.
STATE - single speed with chain tensioner JUST WORKS. Ride it till the chain snaps or forever, whichever's first
Some shops in my country offering sworks OEM but you can clearly see the difference in the mold 😂
These 2 are great ❤ keep doing what your doing 👍
Loved this!
As owner of the Super X, I agree colourway is RUBBISH, very happy for you guys to sand it back if you want more practice? It's needed an annual headset bearing replacement as the "cone" still lets lots of crap into bearing (thanks Cannondale). But it does ride fantastically and you don't have to look at the silly paint while pedalling it!
Doesn't S-Works venge come with only S-Works logo on the downtube? Also, S-Works as far as I remember comes with Dura-Ace which only came with hydraulic brakes already! That bike is suspect!
got the frameset only and have my old parts from a rimbrake bike hence the mech disc brakes 😂
@@eamilio2136 I want to believe you; but, that doesn't explain the paint scheme. All of the S-Works bikes have no Specialized on the fork legs.
Regardless, hope you enjoy riding your bike anytime you ride!
its a repainted frameset, just oddly finished logos, original paint was a sagan paint,
@@ArashFallah in a different comment he mentions that the frame has been repainted. either way, that's a rocketship.
Sagan paint was having a specialized painted decal on the fork, look it up
Elves uses names from the universe of The Lord of The Rings: Vanyar, Falath... Orome is one of the Valar (demigods) in that universe, so I'd guess it's the inhouse wheel brand of Elves haha
A solid 4.0 for a S-Works with mech disc brakes. A 3T frame with an issue of losing thru-axles while riding. Can it get any better? 😍
To re-anodise titanium or any metal you don’t have to sand it but there is an acid to clean it.
Frame manufacturers need to talk to firearms coating manufacturers; cerokote, Diamond Like Coating/DLC, TiNi Carbide, etc. all phenomenal in their respective ways and durability that lasts from high wear to extreme environments!
I've seen a couple of Ti bikes with this coating. It's not recommended for carbon though.
The paint on the SuperX is supposed to look digital like digital camo they use in the military.
i'd be curious to hear what y'all think of the rene herse **extralight casing** tires. currently running RH 700x44 extralights which in my experience are supremely plush and rapid.
The anodizing on titanium can be done quite good so it doesn't come off. I have the Controltech Timania stem and dropbars and I've tried to remove the color with a dish scratch pad and it won't come off. I gave up and left it.
The elves rider is probably not that small, the top tube is just REALLY high.
Top tube is at the same height as the bars (normally it's at least a couple centimeters below the stem)
and the top tube is nearly straight. Seatpost to bar drop doesn't seem that big,
but I think because of the heigh top tube it looks small.
Stack/reach is probably quite reasonable!
Check out Agave Finish Works, Firefly Bicycles, and No.22 Bikes for some 🔥 titanium
4:45 Yes indeed, a friend can cofirm
Guys tell me if should buy ultegra di2 or 105di2. Cant decide which to put on my Stevens izoard pro disc. Is it worth the extra money?
i bought a single speed mtb. its so much fun it makes me want to go bikepacking. ill have to do it by myself as none of my bikepacking friends will let me use it lol
I've got a 2016 SuperX, and I had Cane Creek build me a custom headset. No silly top cap.
4:44 Ferb, I know what we're doing today!
Not true, you can find 0.5 mm cap for the front fork for Cannondale! I have it on the systemsix and the supersix
that s-works does at the min look repainted with a replacement sticker. the hyphen looks a little off, head and tail ends of the 'S's look the tiniest bit too thick, something looks off on the 'R' and 'K'
also don't the forks just have an S logo?
Johnathon here. The State Thunderbird was originally sold as a Single Speed.
That Hunt with its goofy wrong-way-round tensioner looks weird... A double pulley tensioner looks and works better for what he wants to do. Otherwise that bike is awesome - been wanting to do a build like this for years.
That "5-Works" was interesting lol
I think team aquablue sports used 3T with 1x set up before. I think connor of gcn use to ride there.
The BB?? Theee BB?!? cracked me but from what movie is cut out there?? 😂😂
14:30 I'm pretty sure 'curve' is an Australian brand rather than a far east brand.
That State Alu singlespeed needs a Classified Shifting
Ahhhhh, Nooooo!... I have a Curve Titanium Belgie Spirit (Curve is an Australian company).... It is a dream to ride and I wouldn't swap it for the world .... brilliantly comfortable. My rating 10/10 .. 😁
The elves seat post looks low because of the crazy high top tube
it looks high because of the cockpit is at the same level/line
👍Best thing about Titanium is its name
Do people not line their tyre logos to valve anymore?I always make sure that they line up
On drugs… “nobody suspects a cyclist, do they”. 1990’s Trek US Postal team enters the chat 😅
i heard a company making new internals for the old SRAM to convert them to 12s cause they are the lightest lever shifter ever?
Yep ratio technologies, they work a treat, they do a few different versions for road and gravel, they also do a 12spd road version that makes using shimano chains and cassettes compatible
I bought a Falath Evo out of curiosity and I find myself riding it more often than any other bike in my garage and that saddle isnt the Elves inhouse 3D printed saddle let alone being 3D printed at all, bro got scammed.
Regarding the seatpost height, I got a bike fit done and my recomended top tube length for is 545mm with a 100mm stem and 714mm saddle height which for Elves is a 54cm frame. For anyone looking to buy an Elves, down size. My I bought a 52cm (535mm toptube with a 110mm stem and 10mm spacer) and my correct saddle height has the seat post on its end range of being in the frame at the "10" marker. 10 being lowest - 1 being highest. The tup tube does sit higher than "normal" because of the intergrated stem.
I do use the elves osse saddle. This pic was taken before it was released 👍
I wish you could roast my bike setup. I just need to get a bike first hahaha.
I thought Curve was an Aussie brand? I've seen their wild and wide Walmer bars for gravel, which is 600mm wide.
if you think titanium looks boring, u should look into firefly cycles
Love that Jimmy trys to be tactile about Elves branding, while Francis goes for the jugular:
Jimmy: "It's not a great looking logo is it..."
Francis: "It looks like ovaries"
“ Looks like ovaries “ can’t unsee it now. 😂
Doesn't the person with the Slate need the chain tesnsioner because of the oval chainring or is it just my eyes/an optical illusion?
Usually not - if you think about it, half of the chainring is wrapped in chain regardless of its orientation on the oval - although the top and bottom runs of chain are very slightly different in angle depending where in the rotation the chainring is, the effect on chain length overall is minimal.
@@DL-mv8ii in a perfect world, yes, but as someone who rides singlespeeds (but has never tried oval rings on any bike) I know that even supposedly round rings aren't perfectly round and can result in some transmission noise due to the chain tension changing very slightly. I am imagining this is even worse with oval rings? I'm guessing though!
I habe tried singlespeed with oval chainring and no tensioner. It does NOT work! Only if you are willing to accept exuberant amounts of chain slap in certain positions
13:00, it has fake mud on there because it looks cool 😂 😭. They do have a model with a straight florusecent yellow paintjob and the Cannondale logo and it looks boring. Boooooo! Jk, I’m just be facetious because I had a SuperX with the faux mud paintjob. I also have a warranty frame with the same design, but different color scheme and the ppl love it.
I run mine slammer; I used the top dust cover from a headset reducer kit (1.56 to 1.25) for a headshok frame. Does the job.
Oof - lean pickings on the bike front…
FYI Curve bikes are made in Melbourne…
Frames are built in china
So are all the titanium bikes going to look exactly the same always?
Yes
A titanium hydro formed shape can go up to 60 centimeters, so yeah they could do bike frame. But it's only used in very specific aerospace applications since the companies who master the process know they can charge a shit ton of money for since most who have tried failed miserably 😂
How has Jimmi never heard of TPU in all these years of cycling?? 😅
Oh no! I'm fully committed to a Ti bike being built soon. I thought it would be a bit special, but it might just be boring 😢
Not me sending in my ride yesterday evening haha, will have to hope for it to be in the next episode!
How do you send it in? Like an email?
@@Rose_Butterfly98 did you find out?
@@nathanattwood7187 no I think I'll try emailing
Canecreek slamset is the headset discussed
8:33 After that explanation I'm having flashbacks of all the times I was rejected by a girl.
A owl 🦉 😂 phoneshop was jokes tbf a owl 🦉
That ultegra group set looks suspect, it looks to black, rather than gray, it might be just the photo
I’m convinced Jimmi hates bikes, cyclists and all things cycling. The negativity is exhausting 😂
He doesn’t even know what TPU is 😂
💯 I thought I was the only person who felt this way. If it was up to Jimmy we'd all be riding old rim brake bikes from 1996.
The only thing Americans get right it how to pronounce aluminium! It's us in UK who say it wrong lol
Falath means Fallopian in the brands home country..
I don't support the pricihng of OSPW. I don't care about watt benefits as per OSPW. But FCUK, they sure LOOK SEXY!
it's marketing aimed at dentists. But you can get functionally the exact same thing from AliX for 30 eur, and maybe save yourself 1W.
The font on the Curve frame is the same as Marin.
An S-Works with cable disc brakes?
I echo Jimmy's opinion about titanium bikes: They all look the same, like literally. Because there's no coloring. If I want metal, I use steel or aluminium. It's way cheaper and you can get an actual cool paintjob. Corrosion is not really a huge concern if a steel frame is coated internally and if you look after it once in a while. If weight is that much of an issue, I wouldn't really go metal in the first place. But even steel bikes can be brought close to the UCI weight limit. So for me, there's really no obvious argument for titanium. It's just expensive and seems to have an aura of exclusivity that some people seem to go for.
Jimmi if you really wanna see ti bikes that look super unique, look no further than Mosaic.
Wait how do i submit my bike photo?
When your friend buys a Specialized frame on Ali Baba and tries to convince you its real 😂😂😂😂😂
I ride 60 mm deep wheels on the road, but I'm a mountain biker first so I can handle the bike 😂.
Jon Athon’s bike had to have a chain tensioner, he’s running an oval chainring.
The only one I like is the State.
SRAM double tap was the worst thing to happen to road bikes.
1x in Austria? Does he jut ride on the valley floors?
Innsbruck❤
Hunt Wheel, big thumbs down from me after one failed on me big time 40 miles from home when 4 spokes gave out. I re-spoked the wheel with stronger spokes and the wheel failed again. I will never touch another Hunt product.
Jimmi, thank you for admitting Brits pronounce a phantom syllable in "aluminum".
What does Francis have against Planet X????
Single Speed Rules!
until you ride against wind or up a hill
Elves logo looks like a "Arschgeweih" tatoo 😂😂
Says riley makes different ti bikes. Picture shows a bike that looks almost identical to the viewers bike😅😂
Francis- why don’t you like planetx?
I went to Innsbruk and came back with a 40th Anniversary Gios!!!!😂
this should be the whole channel
Love this video. More of the same please.
I thought Curve was an Australian brand
Boooys, Curve are Australian and the kings of endurance and adventure bikes….. just saying 🇦🇺
Sad to think that this channel is fast becoming a 'GCN Bike Vault' imitator.
Jimmy really doesn't know what TPU tubes are? 🤨
Certain cat with tattoos says the crosswind "issue" with rims, slightly exaggerated.
Guess there's rims and there's RIMS, winds & WINDS !
I love my titanium bike because it looks boring.
I like Jimmi's perspective on bikes, its a realistic opinion as a bike content creator. After seeing, riding and reviewing so many bikes you just become numb/jaded to all the exposure. Only very specific types would spark any interests. Him saying about the titanium being a bit generic is true and wish it had some other interesting things done to it. I have similar tastes about bikes where if im spending a decent amount i would at least make it a little unique.
Cannondale always overdo it. Silly ideas and in this case silly paint job
Uh 4000 meters and 4000 feet are very different.
No my bike 🤷♂️
