Is this the fastest bike in road.cc? Ed's Wales Racing Acadamy Dolan Rebus is next up in our staff bikes series, take a closer look at his 2023 team race bike...
Unlike most of the weapons that we feature in our staff bikes series, Ed doesn't get free reign over the frame and componentry that he will use for the 2023 cycling road race season; that's because like many team riders he's tied to a team bike and in some cases components from sponsors (that's also why we don't let him review bikes!). Nevertheless, there are plenty of interesting choices to have a gander at!
What bits of this custom build race bike do you like, and which would you change? let us know in the comments section below!
- Dolan Rebus frameset, L/56cm, WRA
- Deda Zero100 Bar and stem (- 120mm -8° stem)
- 40cm c-c bars, classic shape with shallow drop
- Profile Design cork bar tape
- K-edge aero Wahoo ELEMNT Bolt mount
- KAPZ NHS stem cap
- 12spd Shimano Ultegra R8100 di2 rim brake
- Alpina A5R 50mm rim brake with Hope Pro RS4 hubs
- Continental GP5000s TR
- Rotor Vegast 170mm cranks
- Rotor InSpider power meter
- Standard 53/39 chainrings with aero spider cover
- BB86 bottom bracket
- 11-30 cassette
- Shimano Ultegra 12spd chain
- Pro Stealth saddle 142mm, steel rails (Chromoly on race bike)
- Speedplay pedals, old style
- Deda Elementi Gabbia bottle cages
- Total weight 8.25kg

I got a new road bike this year and was glad they released CAAD13 framesets as rim brake, and also in a gorgeous blue. I work as a mechanic, so I have to do all my own maintenance or else my work buddies will make fun of me. Don't get me wrong. I have disc on my gravel bike and the confidence of hydro brakes flying down windy dirt roads has vastly improved my riding. However, I never want a brake bleed, rotor issue, or whatever to be between me and a ride.

Nice bike with rim brakes Ed! Discs are ridiculous on road bikes and just show how far some people will go to follow fashion and comply with the marketing snake oil. You still have the same rubber on the road whatever you use, but common sense has gone out of the window, just to show off and make your bike heavier in the process.
@slighter
@slighter Год назад
Really depends on your riding style. There is a good argument to detach the braking surface from the area where your tires hook in. It's probably not much of a difference if you are not riding much in the rain or much downhill, though.

Love this bike - practical, rim brake and pro-race - excellent ps. If you ever get a puncture on a disc bike during a race you are done & race wrecked !! The only question on my mind is whether this is a rebranded Chinese Pinarello replica - the so-called 'Chinarello' - it looks very much like an F12 / F series bike. (Made in China ? Painted in the UK ?) Frame tested as safe ?

I don’t doubt they are made in China or Taiwan just like every other big name. Dolan has been around for quite some time already.

@slowcyclist4324
@slowcyclist4324 Год назад
Not really? I grew up riding disc brakes on my mtb full Suss bikes, and on my old rim brake road bikes I’ve always noticed that the rim brakes simply didn’t have the same amount of control over sheer stopping power when you need to jam the brakes (eg, when taking corners on a downhill and you build up speed, and slam the brakes as late as you can to make the turn). Rim brakes simply can’t stop with as much linear control compared to disc brakes. It’s a fact, unless you wish to rewrite the rules of physics.
@fede1275
@fede1275 Год назад
@@slowcyclist4324I would never slam the brakes before a turn, on road tyres you don't have the contact patch to use that technique with enough safe margin and I'm not racing anyone anyway on a downhill on an open road. So for any other use rim brakes give you a lighter, simpler and more reactive bike.
