The Tri suit was the best, modesty panel or lack of.
Mark in the tri suit is really putting me off my breakfast sausage 😂
The most impressive part of this whole video.... two men actually reading the directions to something..😅
😂
I died laughing 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Hi you all at GTN, of course these are a bit hilarious and fully get behind these types of videos. One thing might be worth covering would a similar approach but instead of "making fun"of the kit, documenting how difficult or easy it is to get the kit you can get at such a price to actually function in a way that meets the minimum needs of a typical age grouper. In such a process you would find out for instance if this seat topper is really needed...
James is EVIL in this video!!! 😂 You're such a good Sport Mark!!!
Yes I want to see a race in that
We're not sure Mark approves this comment 🤣
we need to see that trisuit in the water 😅🤣😂
We really don't 🤢
Nobody wants that 👀
🤣🤣🤣@@gtn
@@gtn we do 😂🤩
Leroy my friend we reallly do! @leroysanford2726
~ 8:30 “ Remember: Relaxation, Mark!” Mark rides off: “Ouch” 😂😂😂😂
"Are those nipples built in?" ... mouah ha ha ha!! 😂😂😂
Live the fun you guys are having with this! Brilliant!
Hahaha soo funny! Especially the pink trisuit :D "all the gear and no idea" is such a cool quote! Please print it on shirts :D
Agreed! I would gladly wear that pre/post race!!
I got stuck in James' giggle loop 🤣🤣
These names are WILD
I actually have a bunch of Coospo stuff and for the price they're great. Sure I can get stuff that's a little better but it'd cost twice as much
Coospo is actually a brand I've heard of, they make half decent budget HR monitors 😅
Great video 😂😂😂! It’s also a great lesson in how to overuse adjectives 😅!
I’m pretty sure Belinda must have picked the colour for the tri suit.
Great to see a guest appearance by Sacha Barron Cohen..I’m shocked the CZcams censors didn’t require pixelation of the naughty bits… Very Nice!!! 😁
OMG, i died of laughing on my trainer doing hard intervals. Such a great fun and distraction.
Drainage on the saddle is important to dry the chamois after swimming
Only if the road spray did not wet everything first...
The amount of enjoyment James is getting from this is the best part! 😂
Mark got dressed up as Disney princess doing triathlon 😊
Mark was such a great sport. I don’t think James could have enjoyed this more 😂
You need to give James glasses to Si!! He loves humongous glasses 😂😂😂
I actually have that bike computer and like it 😆
This episode is hilarious! 😂
Mark with his white man saddle and black man package.
I used to have that bike computer before upgrading! Even though setting it up is a pain, it's really pretty good if you don't mind not being able to sync routes to it. I gave it to my husband and he likes it. Great price, too!
Not me a tually using those exact aerobars on my roadbike
I needed laugh and this got me rolling in the aisles! Well done men !
This is what happens to people who put a South African in an ice swim ;-)...
I appreciate you Mark! The things you do for us (your audience) is above and beyond!!! 😂 Thanks!
Well, with that suit, if you are doing the Giro d'Italia 🇮🇹 you'll have all eyes on you. 😂
I think you misunderstood how to use this saddle cover. It's shammy inside out, so I guess you need to ride naked to experience it's full potential 😂
I bought the coospo computer instead of spending a fortune on a garmin. I do use my garmin watch at the same time and the distances at the end of rides between the two are pretty much the same. So for someone who just wants to know speed / distance etc and isn’t fussed on more techy stuff, I would recommend this every day 👍🏻
The descriptions of the advert sound like the ones in the movie: "The Truman Show". 😁
Just please don't sue that suit in the rain 😆
Oh wait what about the swim
😳
Like #977 !! Go Mark go!!! Love this video! Thanks guys!! Just saw James in Daniela’s recent training camp video. Well done 👍🏻
Hilarious 😂😂
Absolutely hilarious 🎉
the reading out of the names made me laugh my head off
I actually use and like the coospo bike computer. Great price and it’s really accurate and reliable for what it is. If all you need is cadence, speed, HR and power then you can’t go wrong. The one I have is Bluetooth I believe and syncs up every ride no issues.
Well my kits all set for the season. Does the trisuit come in leopard skin?
I actually bought a Coospo heart rate chest strap as I assumed the technology has been around for so long it would work just fine. After a few months of using it I’m happy to say it works as intended for half the price of a Polar
If Mark does a triathlon in that suit, he might get disqualified for indecent exposure.
I gave a like just to see Mark wearing that tri-suit 😀
Over thousand likes! Mark has a tri to do when he comes back 😊
I've got the Coospo bike computer, paired with a speed sensor, and while it's a bit fiddly to set up, it works fine for what it is, for what it costs. Download my tracks and sync with Strava after the ride.
I'm doing my first sprint triathlon in just under 3 weeks. This was me trying to find cheap stuff in case I don't like it 😂
"Look at that saddle! It'd be like sitting on a razor blade" ( name the ad? ) And those Scaero bars...yikes!! 😱😆🚴🏻♂️
Was it the yellow pages ad from the 1980’s. Da bought his son a push bike. Saddle wasn’t like that in my day he said.
I got after market clip on bars on my gravel bike and one of them slipped like here. No biggie if only my Specialized Shiv had not done the same. OTOH the seat post slipped too at recommended Newton metres. Grr 😢
@@GrumpyOldMan-pk3mg Correct! "I were right about that saddle though!" 😄
"What can go wrong?" (c)
This got more than 1k likes, so does that mean Mark is now going to do a race in this kit? Let's go!!
When the self-consciousness kicked in at 2:52 🙈😂
Any suggestions for a comfortable replacement saddle the one that came with my giant contend SL is killing me.
I have that coospo computer and it works great
I wish I could triple like this video 😂
thats exactly how I would name those products too😂
Tri-suit is just epic
I think James needs a matching pastel pink trisuit so Mark doesn't have to compete alone in that :).
LoL 🤩🤣
Do I need to get a fancy Tribike and shoes and stuff or will I be okay with my mountain bike if I want to start training and participating in triathlons? It’s my first time and I’m still trying to research and figure out what to do and what I need…hence how I stumbled upon this crazy channel 😂
And me thinking that Blu's white suit would be the worst suit I'd ever see wet... can't even imagine this pink one 😂
amazin
What do you want to drain..... LOL
Hilariously long names 😂😂
Poor Mark lol
Let's see you race with all that fabulous new gear! 😂
I’ve actually use this phone and it works
The pink suit sort of reminds me of a bunny costume my sister had as a baby
😂😂😂… priceless
I literally bought those aero bars, during my bike fit I found out I couldn't attach them to my Ribble Bike. I sent them back to Amazon the next day and bought profile design bars for 50 bucks. Don't be cheap, invest in yourself.
🤔 does Belinda know you guys nicked her tri-suit for clicks 😜
Will this cheap aero bars actually be a bad purchase for indoor cycling? Are Decathlon aero bars worth it? For a beginner.
I qualified for the world's with £40 decathlon bars.........

The sad part is, this is how people who aren't into triathlon see regular triathletes :D
I'd love a video on actually decent budget gear. Tri can get $$
😂👏😂
"Built-in Nipples" 🤣
Why didn't you do this video on a heavy pedestrian walkway where we could see crowd reactions to the glory?
The question is how big of that did Mark lose to have to wear that troy suit?
😂😂😂
I would enjoy see Mark compete one no wetsuit triathlon in that Tri suit and that bike .
It was really pigg pink . 🐷😂
We hit the 1K likes 😄😄😄😄
Ha ha ha one of your funniest videos ever. White man 😂😂😂😂
I'd be seeing more of Mark after a swim wearing that suit. I can already see his nipples and its not even wet. 😂 Hope we can see him wearing that on a race. 😂
That suit was hideous
The names are clearly optimized for search engines 😂😂😂😂😂 clearly not for conversation, “Thanks, you like these? They are the polarized UV repellent eye protecting fishing running cycling… glasses” *10 minutes later *
And I think that suit was a child size???

What was the purpose of this? You can get cheap stuff that works well, like that Coospo bike computer, or cheap stuff that does not, like that Trisuit. If the purpose is just demeaning cheap stuff so we buy Wahoo and Garmin stuff, I guess is all right, but dragging legit companies that are doing amazing efforts to democratize such elitist sports is not ok
Exactly that, it's like they just want to make fun of the people wgo show up with cheaper gear at a triathlon. It's an elitist sport how it is already.
