Does that make Paul an influencer?! 😂 Also just looking - that’s the electric he’s on going up there 😂

@@veloworks9266 Yes! Surely that's cheating using electric - although perhaps Paul's front bag was concealing a 2 stroke engine 😆

Just for fun - our fun - do it again on a bike with those big wheels but with the same ratio / gear inches number. I’m fairly sure it will be exactly the same effort with the pedals doing the same revolutions for the same crawling speed; the only difference being the bike wheels going around more slowly.

We are planning to do the Vale St one from our last steep video on the road bike. I think one of the main differences will actually be the geometry and shape of the bike 🤔 and this is what we will find out I guess!

I admire you brompton enthusiast and if i ever need to use a train to commute i'll buy myself one. But the 20 inch dahon i had before was the worst bycicle going up hill. Everything flexed and shifted. Compact enough but slow. Cheers

Thanks for watching! My Dahon was great on the hills - I actually found it easier than my touring bike - however it’s always different for everybody! Sarah

That's a lot of work, the two older ladies walking up made it look easier.

😂😂😂 it really is easier walking up this hill (although not as fast) but it is a great shortcut !
