- Behind the scenes with @DylanJohnsonCycling on his way to 10th at Unbound Gravel 2024. Taking place over 200 miles of brutal Kansas gravel and the strongest field to date. See what went it into Dylan’s prep the day before the race as well as what the Elite Men’s race feels like up close.
Dylan's Race Kit:
Rule 28 Gravel Suit (Coming Soon)
Rule 28 Aero Socks
bro gave his tyres a fresh cut before the race
That fresh tire fade gotta be good for performance
Dude is a warrior. And he got a big payoff for years of hard work. Mad respect.
$7,000 prize for 10th place 😁😁
@@cracked229 lol no prize money for the biggest gravel race in the world. See how long the spirit of gravel can have that and have the pro riders all happy about racing gravel. Lifetime the organizers are certainly like it with not having to pay any Pro Riders money for that day's efforts.
I see Dylan Johnson, I click.
And we get Dylan shaving his tires.. I am NOT disappointed 🙂
Same!
Fanboy 😂😂
This is the new aero @@wazzup105
@@wazzup105 perfectly missed opportunity for Backwards Hat Dylan to say something about that 🤣
The buddy shot of Dylan and Drew at the end is the best part of the whole video. Great to see that kind of friendship.
Well done Dylan, 10th is simply awesome.
And the Dizzle hug at the end... Super happy for Dylan. Dude works so hard.
Hey Rule 28, excellent sponsorship of a worthy underdog! I'm on team Dylan!
The man the myth the legend
This was brilliant! Really captured the essence of a pro gravel racer! Those action shots must have taken days to piece together! Dylan is one of a kind and this video proves it
Nothing great is achieved without enthusiasm. Dylan is nothing if not enthusiastic. Bottom line - geeking out leads to success. Keep on geeking.
Really awesome videography here!!
You leveled up on this day, Dylan. Way to go!
I used to ride mountain bikes with Dylan and his dad. he was a beast at 14 yo!
Big Congrats on the top 10 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
So stoked to see Dylan get this result. Great clip of Dizzle together at the end too.
HONEY GET UP THERE'S A NEW DYLAN UNBOUND VIDEO
Mum! I'll do the dishes later, watching another Dylan at Unbound video... 😆
Man, what a race. It's awesome to see you play it aggressively. Well done!
I love your endless tenacity and pursuit for improvement. Keep it up bro!
Dylan is the low pressure daddy 18/19psi is sick
I'd be interested in knowing what his tire pressures were at the end of the race. If 18/19 is ideal for him then he may need more at the start, or maybe he already accounted for some anticipated pressure loss.
Super cool to see another side to Dylan. And I’m here for it❤
Make a video with backwards hat Dylan too, we need it!
Dude you trimming your tyres 👊🏻 only Dylan can do it! Top G
I had an stress attack wahtching Dylan not closing the tap while he was filling his bottles
Men's Elite Top 10 Finisher Congrats Dylan!
Perseverance, hard work and science paid off !!!!
Dylan, tape a CO2 or similar under your stem behind the camera. Tape gels vertically behind your seat post to turn that round disaster into an aero post. Make sure to always be carrying something heavy in your rear jersey pockets to pull the front of it back and tighter. That's another 5 -10 watts easy. And if you can get the aero helmet Lachlan used? holy crap. I've made a aerofoil cargo box wedge behind the seatpost with cereal box cardboard and duct tape and it works great to hold a C02 and tire plugs. As long as it's storage, it's not just a fairing and simply smart instead of cheating.
I was actually baffled how in all his wind tunnel testing he didn't try out a few helmets, it's one of the first things a tri/tt person would do
LOL the Incredible Hulk body with all those water bottles and aero gains- on the bike you are now THE Incredible Hulk!!
Great ride and prep. Would love to know what gels and drink you used during the race and how many carbs per hour did you consume.
I think Rule is feeling good about their ROI right about now
Thanks ton for a great BTS vid. We're all so happy for DJ!
Can we get BHD thoughts on Dylan's unbound performance
3:17 Birds going crazy
I see Dylan Johnson I subscribe
Congrats!
Now could we have the same with Backwards hat Dylan please?
Its so crazy to me that these guys are running solely on gels and drink mix for that distance.
The gut training you'd need to do that is nuts.
Hell Yeah!
Very nice ride.
Amazing ride. Congratulations.
Dylan Johnson: Now endorsing electric shavers!
As BHD would say- Very nice ride
Really nice ride
Ok, that first shot of Dylan shaving off the tire hairs... I genuinely thought this was going to be a self-parody video. I had to go back and check if he was wearing a backwards cap. He wasn't. It was just Dylan being Dylan. THIS is exactly the kind of dedication that separates the Top 10 Finishers from the 17th place finishers :-)
Dylan, our marginal gains hero, we didn’t know we needed
Very nice video
love this, Dylan is just awesome! UK fanboy 🙌
That loser in the background at the end is my husband. So random
Lol
He got the feels he always wanted with Dylan!!!
The Dizzl was so proud of his boy. Fab.
If it’s just for aero, Why not put an empty blown up soft bottle down the chest? Do you actually drink or cool off from the chest bottle? What about freezing the chest water bottle?
All are refrigerated until placed on bike or body. The bladder in back has ice in it. Lowering core body temp via chilled on body liquids and also pouring water from bottles on his head and body were all part of Dylan’s temperature management plan. If I recall correctly I believe in his other post-race video he said when leaving aid station he was carrying 7l but only about 3l would be for hydration…the rest for pouring on his body. He anticipates 20 watts plus are gained by managing body temp in high heat of the later ride. All excess gets dumped prior to final miles and sprint.
Your bike setup is awesome! I want one…
Shaving the hairs of his tires for marginal gains 💪 Should look into paint coatings that prevents mud from sticking to the bike.
Great video with a great athlete
hope he gets a podium one of these days .
Any Ideas what he was drinking at 2:40 maybe ketones or electrolytes? Didn't seem to taste very good.
Should be ketones. They can be horrible.
Shit… up so early! Damn that’s crazy. Here I thought you had a proper full sleep after such a day out. I like the other posts with All other humour and adventures, this vid is full of Felt eye candy. How do you rate that Icelandic fork? Worth the upgrade and overall performance?
Redefining gravel
Sick vid
Me too…he’s good.
Face/palmar hand/pedal foot cooling would be optimal for performance gains . The question is how do you do that.
How much ml sealent you put in a big MTB Tire like that?
Is there a bladder pouch at the front of the skinsuit as well?
Yes! He runs a 600ml soft flask in the front for aero! Saves 5W at unbound speeds according to him
No. There is no pouch. He just tosses it down the front of the jersey.
Wow, 18 - 19psi! I run the same tires on my mtb and it feels sketchy.
Wait he didn't wear shoe covers? I'm sure he could tell us exactly how much time he would save over the Unbound distance!
great now I have to shave my tires like a psychopath just to keep up xxxx
More videos!
how far could they go if they all pulled turns?
Does anyone think the fork angle has an aero advantage? Because if the suspension the bottom seems far forward. Maybe it can sweep the air like up and over or something
If you watch Dylan’s bike check video the wind tunnel revealed that the Lauf is actually faster aerodynamically than the stock Felt fork. Both he and the wind tunnel people can’t explain why and it doesn’t make logical sense, but the numbers don’t lie
Here's a question. Have you aero tested the skin suit once it is covered in mud like Dylan was at the end 🤔
Thats another 10W saving as the mud functions like aero dimpels. Trust me, its true.
@@brunospasta Whoa, so start with a dirty bike. That's going to save me tons of time when I'm not riding.
What tyres are those, seeing that MTB is 29 inch?
Continental Race King 2.2
Whoa! The Rad Dad himself made a cameo!!
He's drinking the water straight out of the sink? Is that still safe? Thought that area would have significant groundwater contamination
Next: Dylan promoting Manscape, for when you need to shave these pesky rubber hairs.
Very nice edit. 19psi makes you realize how much volume these MTB tyres hold.
What are you drinking at 3:20am Dylan???
When is it coming out
Rig some kind of water mister up instead of dumping full water? Ugh, might need wipers for the glasses. Oh wait rainx! 🤓
Shoulda mixed the drink mix in a blender at warm temp then put in the fridge for best results
aero frame tubes with water bottles attached. just get aero bottles, mean while he's cutting off tire hairs
They're not always faster. The downtube on this bike is very wide.
@@veganpotterthevegan so would aero bottles that fit those tubes and frame shape. We're seeing them more on production bikes. Easy and obvious gains. One dude even had hideous fairings on his bike, honestly they were ghetto AF he could've used double sided tape or stick on Velcro instead of straps attaching it on. I could make something better in a few days, just put into perspective the time, money, and energy these guys put in but leave out so much easy obvious gains to be had.
@timtaylor9590 plain and simple, aero bottles aren't always faster on modern bikes. And when you add someones legs churning air near those bottles, sometimes some people are even faster with normal bottles on an old frame that's not aerodynamic at all vs that sane frame with aero bottles.
@timtaylor9590 I'm pretty sure he built that fairing that way so he could quickly refill his water as there was a water reservoir in that fairing.
@@veganpotterthevegan terrible job lol
that last shot with @DrewDillmanChannel so cool
Don’t understand why he’s not wearing his aero shoe covers..
Heat management and practicality. Getting off the bike at all on gravel would destroy an overshoe and lead to more drag
@@samcalder102 indeed like last year when he wore these long pants
2:38 what is this?
Why was he holding his nose when he was drinking breakfast?
Curious how tall you are, Dylan, and what size frame you're on. Maybe this has been asked a jillion times -- sorry!
2:40 what did he drink with his nose plugged?
18 / 19 psi ???
According to the Silca tire pressure calculator, his tire pressures are spot on for rough gravel and 2.2” tires.
Not that a rider of your caliber needs any advice, but I'm surprised to see you filling your bottles with local tap water. My team mates and I always used to use bottled water when racing away from home because the tap water in different cities can give you the shits. Just sayin'! 💩
I remember doing a half Ironman once and I had filled my bottles with the local tap water. 10 minutes into the race I was about ready to puke because of the amount of chlorine in the water. I pushed through but you're absolutely right about this.
Why’s he pouring all that water down the drain?
I see lots of “race prep” marginal gains to be had. Tying laces? Pfff you could’ve spent that time eating more oatmeal.
Disappointed at the lack of BHD
He looks a little old for acne? 🤔
....it's all the sugar and carbs he eats.....I think he's 27.
@@blaze1148 I eat those too and I have no acne. My acne stopped when puberty stopped. That's very early twenties at the latest for men.
I was thinking exactly the same…
What's with all these nerd cyclist getting tattoos all.of a sudden??🤦♂️😂
Think they got the term "bikers" confused 😂
On the juju
Everyone who is 100x better than you will ever dream of being must be on the juju right? Go out and ride, ebike doesn't count.
Cringe
Oh hey it’s rule 28. The company with bad customer support
