My choice if money wasn’t a concern would be; 1). Tarmac S-Work 2). Cannondale Evo 3). Cervelo S5

My 2023 super six EVO hi mod accepts up to 34mm (inflated) tires. That’s per the manual. I’m current using GP5k AS TR 32mm that inflates to 34mm.

@kestralrider313 3 месяца назад

The canyon is a great value, but I just can't get past their proprietary cockpit. I love the adjustment feature, but to my knowledge, you can't get another 3rd party cockpit if you wanted one; no clip-on bar option. The aero or possibly do it all bike that I want and was missing from your list is the Factor Ostro VAM. The SL8 probably rides great, but the Ostro is so much sexier, has custom paint options and I would rather ride their latest wheels over any Roval wheels and you get to choose part sizes. The zero customization on the SL8 makes their $14K bike much more by the time you modify it with the actual setup you want; starting with a $5500 frame takes you way over $14K too with SRAM Red and nice Zipp/ENVE/Black Inc wheels.

@fabianmolyneux2308 2 месяца назад

Great review. I agree the Canyon is a great bike. Presently, I'm riding the Tarmac SL8 and a 2022 Cannodale Supersix Evo. The Tarmac is in a league of its own. Just a superb bike. I find the Cannondale heavier needing that extra work to wind up, but holds power and speed really well. I get a smoother ride out of the Tarmac. From those I know who have the Giant Propel, it's rated very highly. Not a fan of the Madone, as the aesthetics are just wrong. The frame looks like a really bad plumbing job and it's heavy too. I'd rate the Emonda over the Madone, as the Emonda is way more versatile and from my experience faster. Maybe the Colnago C68 could have warranted an honourable mention at least.

@glennicol1361 3 месяца назад

@googlesucks4399 3 месяца назад

David, thanks for the videos but you are increasingly appearing to have Sold Out to the big brands. If you want to talk aero, there are numerous frames which far exceed the S-Works.

@amgolfer3591 3 месяца назад

Suggestion? Maybe wait a while longer and make a top 10+ video so you can add a few more brands such as Pinarello, Cervelo, BMC, Colnago, Wilier, etc. I know I missed several more. Maybe a few rim brake options that are more affordable. My choice would be the Pinarello X9 or X7 which is ~ half the cost of the Dogma X. It’s still up there in cost, but more affordable. You had some nice bikes listed but do predicable IMHO-Trek, Specialized, Canyon, Cannondale, Giant, etc. You listed one at the end you haven’t test rode so why not a few others? Remember, we are all mere mortals and an extra pound will not be noticed much. Think mere mortals here. Thanks my friend and keep up the good work.

@bobo8638 3 месяца назад

None are good buys, a rim brake aero for a few thousand less and Kg less makes more sense. But everyone has to have disc, that is a lot less aero when it comes to side winds.

@saxon1376 3 месяца назад

Yea much better range of wider tires on a disc brake bike , if your not running wide tubeless you do t k ow what your missing . And rim brake wheels wear out , disc brake wheels don’t

@bobo8638 3 месяца назад

@@saxon1376 your not exactly accurate about rim not fitting wider tyres, Trek Emonda rim fits 30 np. Also, the wider the tyre the heavier it is. Thing to note is, if a tyre is 25 mm for example, depending on pressure and weight of person and bike, will determine contact area on road. TPU tubes has lower rolling resistance than tubeless. Most bike brands are selling bike with these now and saying the bike is 200grams lighter, give is another 2 grand. Thanks. 😁 As for wearing, I have a set of vision rim, and they are going to put last me. 😁

@Nico-jt8ll 3 месяца назад

@@saxon1376 Running 28/30 mm tl tyres on a 2018 Scott Foil Gen2 rim brake for superior overall performance. Frame fits 32mm, tested and approved. Disc wheels are wobble and not even close as aero as rim brakes, due to long, thick and way more spokes and the additional disc rotor. Braking power is stronger on disc wheels but modulation, timing and reliability is horrendous. Modern disc bike frames are sluggish due to their geometry, in particular the long chainstays and headtube.

@bingbing3464 2 месяца назад

@@Nico-jt8llbraking makes you faster into corners as you can decelerate much later. Discs have way better reliability actually in all conditions and the increased spokes on the wheels helped with stiffness and thus better acceleration. There's a reason why no more Pros use rim brakes even triathletes unless it's a pure hill climb race with competitors competing on 4kg bikes. Modern bike geometry is not because of discs but rather it's more aero. You can get climbing or endurance bike that comes with the more nimble geometry in disc options. You just have crap wheels or it being too deep if it wobbles too much in crosswinds. Nothing to do with disc or rims brakes.
