Chris, the Cade media podcast is way different. Sometimes I think they're still searching for an identity. Francis is rarely there, Jimmie plays host yet Emily appears to be doing a ton of leg work without being recognized. Their subject matter is more British centric whereas yours doesn't hit hard with the local Aussie scene yet it's giving a world scene through the eyes of KZitem with an Aussie flavor. Schedule your show for whenever it's convenient for you guys IMO. You two work well together and your content hasn't gotten old yet.

Materials engineer here. The higher stiffer grade carbon is more brittle. In most engineering applications it's balancing act. You can have something extremely stiff but then you run the risk of cracking easier or you can be extremely flexible and resilient. This is the case in metals too. You can make steel extremely extremely stiff through various heat treatment methods but then it will crack very easily.

@@jameseastwood402 You are right that those two are also contributors, but higher modulus carbon is stiffer, which allows manufacturers to make lighter frames with it because they are able to use less carbon in certain areas, or modify the layup because those properties. Ultimately, all 3 of those things work together to determine the feel and the properties of the bike. But stiffer material is by nature, more brittle, and that stiffer, higher modulus material is required to make the stiffer frames. Or lighter frames of the same stiffness because a stiffer material means you can use less of it. (Not a materials engineer, but also work in mechanical engineering)

@@adamjd7645 I don't think they are making excuses for failed parts or failed rims, but Chris and Jessie were discussing whether or not high modulus carbon is more or less fragile, and they are just letting them know that yes, absolutely a stiffer lighter material will be more fragile if say, dropped at the coffee shop. There is no excuse for using inappropriate materials in say, a rim. But when a bike gets stiffer and lighter it DOES inherently become more brittle than previous versions. Things like layup can mitigate that but ultimately its pure physics and there is no way around it. And so the poster wasn't excusing that, just explaining that this will always be the nature of that relationship.

MvP is the poster boy for 3 Canyon bikes for different events: the Inflite cx bike, the Aeroroad & the Lux mtb. He wins on each bike. So it's like sponsoring 3 riders and with the crossover, he might widen the market for each bike. If you are say a roadie he might encourage you into wanting to try cross or XC racing. He has already done some gravel, so that could well be an extension of his marketing power in the future - though at the 1st gravel worlds he used a road bike.

Regarding the hookless tire blowoff, the rim was only cracked. If there was a complete collapse of the rim, then the tire would likely disengage, whether hooked or hookless. With this cracked rim, the tire would likely stay on if it was a hooked system. The impact blew the tire off of the hookless rim and also cracked the rim. The crack did not directly cause the blowoff.
@jeffvalore5010
5 ай бұрын
I was going to say this as well; I suspect hooks would have helped the tire stay on the cracked rim better, and maybe allow the rider to come to a better-controlled stop. Still don't see what benefit hookless is supposed to provide, other than a manufacturing cost decrease (revenue increase) for manufacturers.

I've been through (what I consider to be, personally) an interesting journey from being a fairly obsessive cyclist and racer (albeit not a great one) to becoming a dad and having very little time to train or race. My first goal, after having a few years completely off the bike, was to get back into 5-6 hours of training a week (in my lunch breaks mainly) and see, firstly, if I could survive an A grade crit, which was the main type of racing I used to do. Then I tried to advance from there. It's been humbling, but has also been great to get back into that scene, for the competitive outlet and for the social aspect, as I tend not to be able to do any bunch rides. There have been some successes and failures, based on my own benchmarks I've set myself, but all in all, it's been a lot of fun.

They told me to remove the tyre and tubeless valve and drain the water from the rim that way!! WTF (I have their response in an email).

I hit a mound of rocks that fell off the back of a landscaping truck on McCarrs creek rd with my Giant SLR1 hookless rims @ 45kph & the tyre blew off & entangled itself around the rim bringing me down as I could no longer steer the front wheel. I think one of the major issues with hookless rims is tyre pressure & tyre width is key. 25mm tyres on hookless rims should be avoided at all costs due to the higher psi. The fact Giant sold their road bikes with 25mm tyres for their hookless rims I think was negligent to say the least. Also the relationship between the rim inner width & tyre width is very important. I now ride on 28mm tyres with the 19.4mm inner width Giant rims & so far the rims have been bomb proof.

The tubeless Conti 5000 28mm S TR Tire stayed on, but I was losing pressure slowly. I was able to make it home which was 15-20 miles from home. When I got home I took the tire off and the rim was cracked across the rim bed. I was surprised it wasn't worse actually. All situations are different, but I can't really fault their wheel for this.

Below average rider here who does long rides 5 to 8 hours. I'm small guy 165cm but on the heavy side 67kg. I average 145w during my 8 hours ride so I'm not fast. This been said from my personal experience, marginal gains (aero helmet, aero kits, etc) made me gain free speed. By just changing the helmet to an aero one gained 2kph... So i think that marginal gains and weight matter more for average or below average rider because going quicker even at relatively slower speed 20 - 27kph requires significantly more effort so everything that can help is welcome. On the contrary, a strong rider can easily overcome additional 2 or 5 kg weight penalty on a hilly corse from effort perspective and ofc not from racing perspective. A stronger rider can easily average above 35kph with or without marginal aero gains. It would really be nice to dive deeper into this subject in future podcast

JC, I'd suggest training and riding a race with a friend to help him/her complete a goal. I'm a competitive runner and usually I focus entirely on myself during training blocks. However, I recently paced a friend of mine to his first sub-3 hour marathon, and it was one of the most enjoyable and memorable things I've done. Maybe you would find some enjoyment doing the cycling equivalent! Love the show guys!

100% pogi would be a great spokesman and get a mvdp like deal. He wins one days, and then we expect him to win grand tours. So many people only watch the tour. Great personality too, not too silly, but fun and a beast. Beyond not deep pockets I always thought campagnolo should lock down pogi as an athlete. When he won the tour so young, perfect person to usher campy in with the new generation. They have such racing heritage (used to!)

In Jourdain s recent video titled "The Difference Between GOOD and BAD Carbon Fiber Bike Frames" the carbon repair expert praises canyon for making paper thin tubes that break like matches. He straight up says it's bringing him lots of business. I want my frame to be built like a tank, I'm 83kg and I want to throw the bike in the car, then another bike, then another, and not worry that a chain stay will snap in transit

Why are the Pros crossing disciplines? Maybe, because the sponsors tell them to do so, but its also super fun. Like, ive been ridden my roadbike für 25.000km in 2 years and i started to get bored by the streets. At some point you know everything that is ridable 100km around you. Then i bought myself a gravelbike and damn it opens a new world for me. So much more ways to try etc. And now I am also riding MTBs because riding downhills on a MTB is so much more fun then doing it on a gravel bike, plus it gives you better bike handling skills by doing so, even on the road. I think those pros do it also for fun, just like MVDP and other Pros are doing CX Races. Its just pure fun

Liners protect against rocks in mountain bikes - their only use in a road bike is to allow a cyclist to keep riding on a flat tyre while the team car catches up.

My last generation TCR ADV SL got crashed into a motobike during downhill..the whole bike goes front roll while I land, cheek first on the tarmac…miraculously, the only damage I experienced is to the right brake level…the frame and wheels manage to go unscathed.. . As for bike review, I just need to tick some box: Major trusted brand, specs, good service, that’s it

With respect to your comments about riders on the podium being mates and you guys wanting to see more tension, look to Lewis Hamilton. In 2021 Lewis was denied his 8th world title in F1 on the last lap of the last race in what was a highly controversial decision by the race director. The courage and sportsmanship Lewis then displayed by congratulating both his opponent and his father showed you his strength of character and resilience. The world needs less conflict, aggression and tension, and more people who can simply be kind to each other.

Agreed. MVP to ride all the bikes in all the events as for Tyler . PS On the first day, God created the Nero Show, and he saw that it was good…. But when on the 100th day others had followed… but fallen short … God slapped a cease and desist on them …. 😊

What about Chris Froome? Built his career riding Pinarello bikes. Suddenly he is not preforming, moves to another team where he changes bike brands then gets even worse and starts blaming the bike on social media and now seems to be gone. Something similar has to happen here with MVP because 10 years is a long time to be at top level.

I think Pog definitely puts on more of a show for social media but that's no different from a lot of folks. He sometimes comes across as needing a lot of attention but that's pretty common in general these days. I know he and Matthews are actually friends. But I don't know why anyone would listen to Lance regarding how to treat people. I don't think the riders showing good sportsmanship makes them less competitive while racing. Personally, I'm a Jonas fan (and I'm not Danish). I love that he's so reserved off the bike but such a killer on it. I do hope we get a good battle at the tour this year.

Hey Guys, Stiffness doesn‘t go along at all with Strength…therefore the Carbon-Fibre manufacturers are offering many different grades. Beside the Fibre Type and Grade the Fibre-orientation, type of textile/Fabric, the weight of a single layer, Layup orientation, the Matrix (usually Epoxy) Type, -content, and properties ( hundreds to thousand different Matrix Types with a crazy variation in E-Modulus (Stiffness), Tensile Strength, elongation at break etc. have massive influence on impact resistance. Additionally the Frame and Tube Design. So not judgeable for us. Just testing will proof. Cheers

I think the “love in” has more to do with the changes in the way riders come up through the ranks. In Lance’s day you had to work your way up through the team, competition was built into the system as riders rose in ranks and results. Riders now are coming through younger with this dynamic much less prevalent in the peloton.

Pogacar, MVDP, Philipsen and the likes all win a shit load... They are enjoying being in elite company and they respect eachother as they know how hard it is to beat eachother. Why do they need to hate eachother? Seems like they are just a bunch of legends and not ego maniacs so they don't feel the need to hate eachother.
