I dig it. I like the idea of solid but cheaper frames being upgraded - especially when you already have the bits!

@JoshRomeroYT 11 месяцев назад

For sure Tim! I think the frame is solid for the asking price!

The TV box is a genius move😂 they will really handle it with care.

Cut sugar of any kind out of your diet for at least 2 months and see if you knee feels better. Ask me how I know. As you age your tolerance of sugar gets much lower and causes inflammation. Good video. I may get this bike.

@albert85b 11 месяцев назад

Nice build! I love my flat bar gravel bike for commuting, adventures and just general riding. Also, very keen to hear your thoughts on basket commuting versus backpack commuting! EDIT: Although I will say, after many years on 650b, I have gone back to 700c.

@TheRickurb Год назад

Glad to see towards the end of the video that you added a basket. I was going to ask… you buried the lead, lol. (I'm a basket nerd)

@JoshRomeroYT Год назад

Yeah really digging the basket setup!

@Burritosarebetterthantacos 7 месяцев назад

The trackbike I rode in the city daily has been hanging in my garage in Suburbia for 8 years. It reminds me of faster days😂

@DAMN55117 Год назад

looks good. agree with a lot of your commuting thoughts on needs.

@quiteintresting1916 11 месяцев назад

Very much interested about the basket

@malcontent_1 11 месяцев назад

I'm very interested in the Poseidon drop bar bikes, especially if/when they adopt the new MicroShift Sword groupset. Hope your knee pain improves -- might check videos by Phil Burt, Road Cycling Academy & Cade Media (Bike Fit Tuesdays) re: saddle height/knee pain. Thanks for the video!

@htdtr 11 месяцев назад

Solid bike though, looks cool! Guarantee you the stock tyres were chosen because they were cheap at volume. Stock tyres are universally crap on every bike though, it's kinda like a tradition

@rapstarD 11 месяцев назад

Wow. Coincidence. I have a kona rove ltd and got a flat bar commuter a couple weeks ago as well. All-city professional supreme is what I chose. Enjoy the new ride

@roshanzameer9273 2 месяца назад

Hey what bars are those? Sick ride, btw.

@Psp-id7uw 3 месяца назад

Why are you whispering 😂

@Ming3r 2 месяца назад

Thanks for comparing sizing to rove. I checked bikeinsights and the L is pretty close to my 54 rove and 56 midnight special.

@DanielVargasPhoenix 8 дней назад

What basket is that?

@Daniel-yf9iy Год назад

I have the Rove DL and I like it.

@nmonye01 11 месяцев назад

Those fixie riders would clown us gear bike owners. I would laugh, I grew up playing sports, in my mind I said see what your knees say at 40! You grew up player.

@Donovangulya 11 месяцев назад

I love my flatbar redwood but, be careful of the rear hub. I basically blew it up after about 2months and only 400-500 miles. Wheelsets for 650b are very cheap. Panaracer gravelkings are a great choice for this bike aswell.

@williamfwoods Год назад

This is fantastic! With the price point of the Poseidon I couldn’t help but wonder if this was actually a too good to be true situation. Where the bike ends up being a lunky POS that people who don’t know any better buy into because they’re just starting their cycling adventure. Your stamp of approval adds more validity to this brand than Poseidon could ever imagine! Great work! And I’m excited for what’s to come. Also sorry about your dang knee but you’re not a lone brother. Did just 11 miles on mine last night WITH A FRONT BREAK and my knees ain’t right today

@JoeBManco Год назад

That is a very good gravel/commuter/bikepacking bike. I have a similar bike by a different company in which I also changed out the handlebars, saddle, and pedals to ones I prefer over the original equipment. This made the bike near perfect for my needs. 1X front chainring is the only way to go if you don't need a race bike.

@whatelsewouldyoudo Год назад

Looks great

@jazzfan7491 11 месяцев назад

Very cool! I’m kinda waiting to see if they release the x ambition with microshift sword

@bobjimboney4844 5 месяцев назад

stock tires should just be the cheapest ones they can source because almost everyone swaps them out to their favorite flavor.

@dadsideofcycling 11 месяцев назад

Just curious why you picked the flatbar set up vs the drop down like you have on the rove

@turboseize 7 месяцев назад

No fenders on a commuter? You must live a really dry and arid climate.

@difflocktwo 9 месяцев назад

I had derailleur commuter bike for a few thousand km. way too much hassle keeping it smooth. it was a sora setup. now I'm running a nexus 8 igh. so far shifting is way better. but maintenance is no easier. still gotta clean chain and open up the igh once in a while to clean and lube.

@difflocktwo 9 месяцев назад

Edit: it would be easier to completely enclosed the chain now though to keep it clean.

@marcclish Год назад

Really nice touch with the saddle.

@JoshRomeroYT Год назад

Thanks! Have always enjoyed leather saddles. I know they have their downsides but they work for me. (Although might change the saddle on the rove. On the trainer leather saddles get worked!)

@scruf153 11 месяцев назад

I have a trek domane al 2 and ordered a poseidon ambition x does not hurt to have a back up bike since I do not own a car

@17gina10 11 месяцев назад

What front rack are you using? :)

@Burritosarebetterthantacos 7 месяцев назад

I need a commuter to the fire station…for the price this is a winner.

@luciom5778 9 месяцев назад

Got the Poseidon X and spokes fell apart at 1.5 years. Saddle is garbage. Beautiful interstellar blue color and lots of bottle cage mounts. Great bike after updating saddle and rims.

@Anth230 8 месяцев назад

Well yeah. As always most bikes come with garbage rims and seats.

@htdtr 11 месяцев назад

Could you not just have added a front brake to your track bike? My commuter is fixed with a disc brake front and i love it, do decent milage on it while carrying loads of shit for college or shopping in my panniers

@markevinlagsac3252 11 месяцев назад

mine too. custom build. with 29 fork for upright position

@PudgyPedalPusher Год назад

Great foundation for sure, Josh! I have to Ultradynamico Cava’s on my commuter/basket bike and they roll like a dream!

@JoshRomeroYT Год назад

Hey Pudgy! Haha was actually looking at the Cava's maybe a 2.2 !

@PudgyPedalPusher Год назад

@@JoshRomeroYT I have the 48’s but thinking the 2.2’s will replace them when they’re worn out.

@KarlRadekBonk Год назад

I think the idea of a bike like the redwood as a commuter is great. Especially if you’re wanting a separate bike for commuting because it’s so affordable.
