Welcome to the home of The Nero Show cycling video podcast, the only unfiltered cycling chat show that is dedicated to giving you unfiltered cycling discussion.
We want to both entertain and challenge with our topics and takes, as well as bring you a mix of special guests who are at the forefront of our sport on the RU-vid platform.
The Nero Show was born out of Nero Continental, a UCI Continental race team that shared it’s journey on this channel up until 2022.
Racing and riding is still very much at the fore of what we do on this channel; race VLOGs, product reviews, and riding journeys will always aim to inspire you to get out and give it a go!
I’m pretty confident if Jesse had paid for the frame he would be going crazy I’ve watched you guys for years and really enjoy your content but that made me feel embarrassed for Jesse
Jesse complains about a head unit that has 6 screen options but is ok with convincing people that a frame will a fawlty bottom bracket is acceptable lol
I am an engineer and this numbers go out the window. If you are a top level professional cyclist the numbers ok. For normal yo, overweight, tall, short, broad chests, etc. this topic is non sense. Get real guys. But I get it you need to show something in your show.
I've done the bit where I was riding, the heat\wind were just stupid and I was dying on the road, so I came home and did 3 hrs more hours on the trainer to get in my scheduled distance in the Air Conditioning. I also name my sensors as I have a Garmin 1040 and have multiple bikes and profiles, and multiple wheelsets, so it keeps everything organized. The beauty of the profiles is that you can limit certain options for a specific bikes.
So as I was riding the trainer today due to not wanting to ride through Hurricane Helene road debris, I was shocked to learn about a Grand Fondo coming up in Jacksonville area which is where I live. I have heard nothing on that locally in any of the shops. This area is so flat and the only climbing are bridges. Just find it comical I find out about this from 2 dudes around the world from me. I guess I need to see if my main local shop is going to be providing support or participating. I appreciate you keeping me informed of my local ride, LOL.
I bought the pro version SL8, painted it, put on S-WORKS decals, Roval handlebars and Red Axs 12 speed, all new with used ENVE rims for $8,700. Its 60 grams heavier than the S-WORKS.
With "Wheelsfar" u can basically choose various western hubs - dt swiss, extralite etc, or their own cheaper in house ones laced to a farsports rim. Usually with steel spokes with a slightly higher weight for a cheaper price. Can get rim brake rims, tubular, disc etc so quite customisable.
Keep in mind that crosswind stability is due to the centre of pressure location relative to the steerer tube. Larger distance away = larger torque = more unstable. While how well the tyre transitions to the rim plays a role in this, rim depth and profile are also very important.
I have a COROS running watch I think it is the best one I have had. I like the APP, has good data like HRV, & most other stuff that the ‘others’ have. I also run it in parallel to my cycle computer so I have a total health physical picture of myself. I am a runner 2nd to cycling, but at 65 I need an overall health fitness data & the COROS watch is working for me. Thanks Peter
One thing I can say about Coros - be a a user of their watch - is they are always working on updating to make things better and the updates tend to cover all models that can handle the updates as long as the processor and/or storage is enough. Bottom line is they are always working on improving and while I don't think they should have released the Dura till maybe this last update they will get there quickly.
2:25 Mythbusters was asked what was their biggest 'Oh Wow!' moment was. They said a car they put in a wind tunnel, then covered it in clay, added the dimples and drag was reduced 14%. So I stick with the dimples.
Honest question. Whats better? 2k 6.8kg durace rimbrake supersix from 2017 or a used 2k entry level supersix disc 105 8kg from 2020? Both on carbon wheels. OPINIONS?
Weight weenie build on the S5! - lighter wheels - darimo seatpost - bare carbon saddle - carbon ti rotors - carbon ti chainrings - lighter cranks - drillium Does it still hold the speed? Does it improve your package????
Hi Jesse and Chris. Regarding the Hunt topic. The updated wheelset of the guy who messaged is the Hunt Carbon Disc 50, not the Sub-50 you mentioned. This updated version is 22mm internal and 30mm external and costs around £700 for the set. What tyre width do you recommend for this? Thanks
Maybe Remco does these videos so casually to psyche out competitors. Ha Ha ... It's like "look how easy it is for me to train and win BACK TO BACK WORLD ITT's! & Stick with you guys in my first TdF".... Total Mind Game....
Y‘all heard about the official revision of the Cyling RPE scale? Previous models employed a scale of 1-10 or 10-20, but newest developments in sports science revealed that the actual question you need to answer is: Between 1 and Jesse at Centennial park, how hard did you go?
Love the podcast. But felt like the last 30 minutes was essentially a paid advertisment. Coros Dura must be loving Chris, free beta testing and a free 30 minutes sell of their product. Maybe for the next time, try limit the talking of the product to 10 - 15 mins, it just felt like an ad read for the last third of show
watt are we saving from a less than ideal setup to a perfect setup? 10 watts at 25mph? meanwhile proper training vs less than ideal training gains lots more time spent at that 25mph! there's nothing hurts more than getting dropped with great wheels 😂
I just discovered this podcast a few days ago and let me tell you it's phenomenal! Keep working guys! Can you talk about the new models of cube '25 agree/litening comparing expects/price? I just ordere an agree race ! Cheers
Hi guys, love your show. I had the pleasure of riding with Remco in livigno last year on matching TT bikes. He’s a gentleman. If he’s in Alicante he might with Valverde who lives there in a prefect climate for cycling.
was interested to hear Jesse not mention that the new Farsports wheels come with CeramicSpeed bearings. In a lot of the brands and wheel around similar price and even some double the price don't do that IMO.
For UK hill climb races, you do need a saddle and seatpost. But some riders who only stand, have gone for tiny bmx saddles and plastic seatposts to save weight…
Loved the video as usual. But shouldn't there be some kind of trade off with wheel weight? A wheel that is lighter has less material, so shouldn't it be weaker and less durable, potentially more dangerous? Maybe that means instead of 1 out of every 100 or 1000 wheels have a failure it is 1 out of every 50 or 20 or something, I don't know, but I can't believe without seeing a lot of evidence that there isn't some downside to the lighter wheels. When something seems too good to be true (1/2 the price and lighter) we should be skeptical.
Felt FR gang represent (even though the geometry is probably too aggressive for my fat old ass at this point) It should be pointed out that Felt bikes are (or at least were) competitively priced compared to other non-DTC brands.
Recently acquired the No.6 wheel 45/50 and the front wheel yields almost 82%, while external width 34.4 & int.28 , which with a 28 tire (GP5000) gives overall front tire widest point at 35mm. Without getting into wind tunnel perf and based on pure ride feel , its been noticeably smoother in flats, avg speed seems tad faster, and mostly noticed in the turns extra grip....seems this front wheel is an anomaly . Curious to know if any others have tried this wheel out and have noticed the difference i am seeing. This is compared to a LB AR35, which are comparable in weight , but ratio smaller in the 75% (21mm inter / 28mm ext).
Just a questions for Jesse ... does the < 75% Coyle Ratio apply to Gravel wheelsets as well? I understand gravel is not your favourite talking point, but would be good to know your thoughts!
