The Poseidon Redwood is a great entry level gravel bike, with potential to upgrade to an intermediate level bike. In this video I give my top 5 upgrades to improve the overall performance of this bike.

Can you still run the 27.5 on the carbon fork
Seems your saddle is pushed forward past the safe adjustment zone.
I love my Poseidon Redwood👍👍👍👍
Does the carbon fork come ready to go or does it have to be cut to size? Thanks for the upgrade suggestions! I’m slowly making the changes. It’s hard to find the sword shifters at the moment.
It has to be cut to size. It took me 6-8 months to find the sword shifters.
Does anybody know if i can buy this bike and take off the posidon sticker????
It is painted on…not a sticker.
i have the 2023 version in matte black. the logo on the downtube is barely noticeable.
Is there a point where one can upgrade out of class? You say you've effectively spent $2K, could you have instead spent that money on a $2K bike that didn't need upgrading?
For me it was money spent over a couple of years instead of all at once. If someone was trying to get into gravel biking but didn’t have the funds to drop $2k on a bike, this would be an option to get there over time. Also, I sold the parts that I replaced, which lowered my overall costs (old shifters I sold for about $75 and the old fork I sold for $60). If I had it to do over, I would buy the bike on sale, which I have seen it around $600, order the Sword upgrade on their site, order the fork as well. This would put the cost at around $900. Then still do the wheel upgrade. Now it’s closer to $1500.
Change to compresssionless brake housing! I changed out the housing on my Poseidon X Ambition and it was a major improvement. The new Triton road bike from Poseidon now comes standard with the compressionless housing so they took notice of everyone's complaint.
CBH was my first upgrade to my redwood. it was so nice actually being able to stop. :)
Is the carbon fork the same as the original fork in terms of offset and axle to crown length?
I sold my old fork, so I don’t have any measurements. I put the old wheel (original wheel and tire) on and there is enough clearance for it. I would recommend the upgrade. The carbon fork absorbs a lot of the road vibration and there is a significant weight reduction.
In my Poseidon, the fork is waiting for replace, and I'm searching for one that will be compatible with 700x55mm wheels.
@@Mateusz-r1f the original tires are 2.35 inches (59 mm). I think the 700x 55mm will work.
Yea, ta
Thx for the review. This is exactly what I was curious about with cost to convert to 700c and how lite you can get the Redwood. Really appreciate it!
John - which Garmin unit are you using and do you like it/recommend it?
It is the Garmin 130 plus. I went with the least expensive computer I could find. I wanted something that I could download the routes with, and this seemed to do the trick. I know there are fancier options, put you pay much more for them. It all depends on what you are looking for. The battery lasted all day, and I didn’t have to worry about my phone going dead from tracking my ride.
@@johnsnell6315 thanks for the info.
lol I had 2 chunks of Watermelon 🍉 after I did the Karras loop. 👍
@@kmtnbike1117 I actually had 2 chunks as well…I only show one in the video. It really hit the spot after all of the heat.
Where is Day 7?!?!?
I expect that rain was loaded with either Wyoming Coal, or Trona. What with having that engine on the rear to help on hills and with braking. Keep on Pedaling. Mount Pleasant, Iowa, is the home of a Huge Steam tractor show, just do not remember when. Hearing that steam whistle was nice. Brought back some neat memories.
Thanks for posting. My favorite leg of this year’s Ragbrai
I really enjoyed the gravel on this section.
I was standing right next to you when Night Ranger took the stage. That's me in the Bluey Hawaiian shirt at 30:29!!!
I love the shirt!
well done!
Poseidon 🔱🔱🔱🔱😁😁
The mud at the tire dip 👎🏻. Last year the route went by the tire dip day 1. Great video looking forward to watching the rest.
Yes. I wish the tire dip was closer to the starting town.
Thanks for Sharing,
You bet!
Happy RAGBRAI!
I did RAGBRAI back in 2012. It was not an easy ride, and frankly, it was kind of a grind, and although I'd watched tons of video's, it did not really prepare me for the ride. Plus I was carrying way to much stuff. I ended up putting stuff on the baggage wagon. But, now I know what to expect, and this winter I will train as much as I can. And yes I will be on it in 2025. So Wyoming will be represented. I always fly a small Wyoming flag on my recumbent bike. Take it easy, now that its over ;) I like your video's. I wish they where a tad longer though :) P.S. I tent camped every night but one. A massive thunderstorm rolled in on Wednesday night, and I got taken in. I was always up and on the road by 6am ;)
Go Pokes!
I almost did the ride this year. But then I found out about the route. And since I have family in that neck of Iowa, I knew all too well about the never ending hills. So I will do it next year. Oh and I also live in Wyoming. :)
It was a fun route. Training between 7000 and 9000 ft elevation, I didn’t think the hills were that bad. I hope you make it next year! Represent Wyoming!
Where did you say you got the fork
Poseidon’s website. “Thru Axle Conversion Kit”
Anyone has an alternative source for a compatible fork? State? Fyxation?
@@thegreatouttherecurrently getting a State Co Monster Gravel Fork installed.
My first ride with my husband this year it was so Amazing would like to do it again .Thank you for this video I’m able to re live the happy memories I can still remember the hills that I was able to conquer , new sub here
The hills were plentiful! I hope your week was wonderful.
@@johnsnell6315 I lasted up to day 3 only due to lack of sleep I had to abandon the ride, I was not able to adjust the "tent life " now looking for indoor options for next year. We were with pork Belly , I found out that they have few trucks that accommodates indoor but you need to make reservation years ahead if if you are lucky to get it.I noticed on day 2 I believe some people were sleeping inside St Mary's church, I need to look more indoor options for next year as I really enjoyed the ride .I wonder if you have any information re : indoor accommodation .thanks .
I live in Macksburg. It was wonderful to have you all come through. We have only had Max Fuel since earlier this year. We have not had a gas station here before. We are so thankful to have it now. Have a safe ride!
We loved it! It was the best kept secret of the town. 10/10!
@@johnsnell6315 With a small, rural town of a population right at 100 people now, we feel lucky to have gotten it. I am glad you liked it!
What freewheel option did you get for the gravel race wheel set?
Shimano/SRAM HG Splined
Wow, everyone is amazingly fit on this "ride."
Crowds are way smaller from last year. I kinda regret not going this year.
Great video! You got that out quick! Enjoy the ride!
Thanks! Will do!
And, how do I not get ridiculed when I can’t back surf, rotate, stern squirt.
As I bet, do I get top in eddy?
What’s up John. Stopping by to compliment you on your slick videos. I’m researching the katana right now and found your films. Love to GoPro max footage and editing. Thanks man keep it up!
Thanks. I hope you find the boat that works best for you.
Nice video! Could you tell me the size of the spray skirt that fits the Katana 9.7? TIA
I tried looking up the cockpit specs on Daggers website, but couldn’t find them. I know it is a little larger than my regular whitewater kayak. I would guess it is an XL cockpit size.
@@johnsnell6315 Thanks
Hello, great video and info. Ive had my 9’7” for about a year now. What length paddle would you suggest for this boat? I’m 5’9” 165.
I would suggest a paddle length of 197 to 200.
❤❤❤ Great video! Thanks for sharing it, John!
Hey John- good work on the Drift races. I’m attempting my first go at the 13mile this year with intent to build to the 100. My biggest question: water! How are you keeping enough? What carrying device(s) are you using on the 100? Thanks!
Great question. The race requires you to bring a minimum amount of water containers. I use insulated water bottles and then keep them inside of a pack to keep them from freezing. The check stations also provide water (about every 25 miles). For the 100 you are required to bring a stove in case you need to melt snow. I have not had to melt any snow so far. I have used a camelpak water bottle.

Nice job
what time of month did you go on this trip and how bad were the mosquitos?
Early August. No mosquitoes where we camped. It was quite pleasant.
Dagger kayaks are wonderful aren’t they? I have a Zydeco 9.0 that I was very fortunate to find. They are very hard to come by.
I have liked all of my Dagger kayaks. Their outfitting is top notch.
Do you still have your Mount Vision 8? How is it riding overall and durability wise? Tire looks bigger than stock 27.5”. Did you convert it to 29”?
I still have my Mount Vision 8. It is a smooth predictable ride. I have had no durability issues with it. Fun bike! Still have the stock wheels (27.5”) I think the Wolf Ridge was Marin’s 29’er.
Drinking bootie water rather than bootie beer is unacceptable and a violation of long standing tradition. Deduct 2 points.
Beer: Never had it, never will…I’ll accept the 2-point deduction.
It’s cause you had yer go pro on! As soon as you strap one on you get worked lol
Truth!
Awesome video. Glad you guys had a great time! Looking forward to seeing everyone again next year!
Great coverage reliving that blissful snowy push! I was the guy that pushed onward a bit after bivying overnight at strawberry. Wanted to give it a go but no groomed snow! I’ll be back and tks for capturing one hell of a ride
I was definitely thinking the same thing as you. When you came back, I knew it was a no go.
amazing environment there and enjoyed the video and natural aspects of this - dagger kayaks seem good and that skeg makes a big difference 👊
I am a big fan of the Dagger Outfitting. They definitely have the comfort level dialed in.
Thy hair! It's stunning!!
It’s where all my power comes from.
Thanks for sharing. Too bad your camera died. Delayed congrats.
No beard! Awesome video!!!
Lovely to hear you paid the guy $400 for it 🙂
