Most of your videos have TMI.
Me likey!

Thank you so much for posting this video. I was about to purchase a new bike today but now I think I might just do some upgrades and give it a shot or I might just custom build a bike instead of purchasing off the rack bike then wanting to upgrade. You guys know how that goes. Thanks again

I ride Schwalbe Delta Cruiser 700x28c and I changed my carbon forks to steel ones. No puncture so far and comfortable front end. Happy riding Gary.

Can you post a video on how to build a bike from scratch?

Thanks for the video. You should also mention that your tire width choice will also be limited by your frame. My Giant TCR frameset would not accept a 28mm wide tire in the rear. Also if you ride Speedplay, their new walkable cleat keeps the dirt out and provides more traction for the parts where you have to walk.

Nice video, keep it up! :)

I run gator skins, they are ok, but I still get a fair number of punctures on regular UK country roads.

What's the brand of the saddle shown?

i always hear about carbon being more comfortable cause it absorbs impacts, but also it's the go-to material for stiffer components as well. this seems contradictory to me?? fyi i've never had any carbon parts. keep it up yall, these vids rule
