Blake Samson is out in the Forest Of Dean to race his beloved Canyon Fatbike against his new Nukeproof Digger gravel bike! Will the racing geometry of the Nukeproof make up the time on the smooth gravel or will the beastly tyres of the Canyon Fatbike make up the time in the rough stuff?

Fatbiker myself, I can totally relate to Blake's comments about looking down at that enormous tyre and the dull noise it makes. Love it. Despite it being slower than a gravel bike, I'd clearly chose the fattie, anytime.
@speed2live
@speed2live Год назад
I knew if I scrolled down I'd find someone with a similar feeling to me. The fatbike fun factor definitely outweighs the added inconvenience. Especially at a bike park.
@bikemike1118
@bikemike1118 Год назад
I once was interested in a fat bike as well … but the market for fat bikes here in Germany was and still is literally dead right from the beginning of this „genre“. The dealers wanted to talk me out of it. Never ridden a fat bike as no dealer had a demo bike. I would have to order one with big payment upfront…and the risk I might not like it as a keeper was too high for me. I do own an XC racebike and the fat bike would just be an additional toy for variety…so I stepped back from this idea.
@TechSucht
@TechSucht Год назад
@@bikemike1118 in my opinion fat bikes only make real sense under very specific circumstances - mainly deep snow and sand. Anything else can be done as good or better on a regular mountain bike. Most people riding fat bikes simply love that they are so chunky (which is reflected in many comments here too), it's mostly not a rational choice but an emotional one. Which is totally okay, of course. It's a hobby and we want to have fun outdoors. 🙂
@bikemike1118
@bikemike1118 Год назад
@@TechSucht …totally agree with you! The same would have applied for me. I sometimes do like this chunky look but on the other hand …riding around with a bike like this in an environment where is no sand and rarely much snow can also look pretty dumb and ridiculous…especially when you’re (like myself) not a teenager any more. 😎 So, it‘s probably a „good thing“ for me that the fat bike-market here is down.

@chrisplatten2293 Год назад
I think Blake's skill made the downhill times closer than most riders would get. I am fairly sure I would be a lot slower on the gravel bike than on the fat bike for that section. I like my gravel bike for the options it gives me on road rides to get in a sneaky bridleway shortcut, but prefer my trail bike for anything even slightly serious. I do really want to try a fat bike. I have never ridden one and they look a lot of fun. Something to consider if I end up on a trip where I need to rent a trail centre bike for the day.

I have a mountain bike and a fat tire bike which I ride in the winter here in Minnesota and let me tell you, there's nothing like riding a fat tire bike on snow. The feeling of floating over obstacles, the sound of the snow under the tires, the serenity of the woods... I highly recommend it I have studded tires on it for the ice, so I don't ride it outside of winter.
@sepg5084
@sepg5084 Год назад
If that gravel bike was a hybrid (flat bar) it would have been even faster. Drop are pretty much detrimental offroad. Put some "inner bar ends" like Spirgrips on a flatbar then you gain a "hoods" position on it if you are so concerned about aero.

Fat bikes have a pretty specific purpose. I live in Alaska (where they were invented) and even here they aren’t often the best choice unless you are in the snow/soft ground. That being said they are loads of fun and will give you a great workout. Getting back on your gravel bike will make it feel too easy.

Next head-to-head should be a hardtail vs a gravel bike on a similar course! I suspect the hardtail will have a slightly larger advantage in the rough than the fat bike did, and will be much closer on the gravel. It could even win overall.
@m4yd0g

A simple way to speed up the fat bike is to choose a different tire and/or increase the tire pressure. Small adjustments in pressure make Big changes in ride feel and rolling resistance.

Same fat bike with lets say 3.8 hodags at 10psi would beat the gravel in overall time. So, yeah, funny videos, but again, it’s difficult to categorize. Love you Blake!
@better.better

yeah unfortunately because of their business model, they're pretty much constrained to their sponsors products, which has the unfortunate effect of skewing results by exclusion of other options. it kind of makes them look incompetent to those of us who are actually in the know, and see it as misinformation and the disservice to the people who need the other options and can't afford to just throw money around to figure it out themselves.

I love Blakes, "I love cycling as a whole" attitude. I feel the same way. Any time spent pedaling on two wheels is time well spent.

@andrewl3610
@andrewl3610 Год назад
The thing people don't talk about much in videos like this is the tire mass, if you are a larger rider you can get those flywheels going with a lot less relative power and then maintain them at a medium pace without too much effort, smaller riders trying to get those things up to speed after a turn or up a hill have a much worse ratio of power to rotating mass before the flywheel kicks in some payback to deal with. So I would say can be a lot more tiring, or only slightly so but its going to be much more rider specific.

Love a quirky bike. Have you ever considered rigid singlespeed 29er MTB? Makes you pick your line carefully whilst trying to carry as much speed as possible for the uphills. No easy way out on the climbs, gotta get your arse out of the saddle and keep momentum and makes you consider when to hit the brakes. Great for training on and makes you feel like a hero when you get to the top and a quick spin is a proper workout if time is short. None of this full suspension ebike nonsense. Also makes for a great short/medium distance commuter cheap to buy, Low maintainance, light weight very little to go wrong, less stuff to bash, easy to clean but still tough enough to hit the dirt.

I really have to buy a fatbike for the winter , the skinny tires just dont cut it in the snow especially when they havent plowed yet

I wonder if the drop handlebars on the gravel bike actually help with proper body position on jumps? Keeps you from being leaned back completely!

He's mad! I slapped gravel tires on my flat bar road bike and I felt like I was going out the front door on every jump and bump. Blake is just a beast!

How about a fs xc versus gravel fs, something like a canyon lux vs niner MCR fs

I'd like to see a comparison of a fat bike to a xc or bikepacking bike for crossing deserts. Is the extra drag of a fat bike worth it to be able to easily ride soft terrain?

Love the sound fat bike tires make while riding. I ride 29 plus year round on my hardtail so I can appreciate big tires. Love the extra traction, bit of a penalty on fireroad climbs but I don't mind at all.

8:45 - wife came into the room angry suspecting that I'm watching an adult movie, saw a guy on a bike who at that moment says "I test blood. That's hard", wife called me a pervert

Great content, but you should throw in the full suss for real comparison of all three. I love my Grav bike (Grail SLX) and do red route stuff and most of the time its awesome but it hates roots and any kind of jump.

Very entertaining video, I tried drop bars off-road ONCE and it was super sketchy. I don't know how you do it.

I just got a fat tire bike from Bass Pro shop for $390. It’s got a microshift 1x10 with a clutch. Gonna throw a dropper post on it and give it some new pedals bars and grips and rip it!

Whilst I probably should have gotten a gravel bike for the type riding I do, I really enjoy my plus tire mtb I got instead. Cool idea for video!

A year ago a bought a fatbike and use it in the desert. I let my colleagues try it, now there are more than 10 fatbikes riding with me in the desert. 😅

This is a rally car and jeep mudder meet. I have a fatty and love it, kinda wanna get a gravel for the rough road intermittent. Its good to have a car and truck to use the correct tool when needed! Or wanted...

I've got an electric gravel bike and a fat bike. Fat bike goes so slow but I just love it. Especially on days like today when I'm commuting to work in the snow.
