Fixie Gravel is a hoot! I've got a Cyclocross fork on a 1970s era fast touring frame. It's the most fun of all the bikes I own. & it cost me almost nothing. Stick a front brake on it & you'll be shocked at how many places you can ride it. It'll also make a trail you've become bored with a whole new challenge.
One of these days I'll get one
I have the Kespor GSX with the older SRAM Rival groupset. I'm pretty happy with the frame as it does pretty well as a gravel bike and can do it all. But yes, the correct move would be to get the variant with the Shimano GRX groupset as it offers full hydraulic disc brakes!
Your new bike is sweet though haha
If I were to choose a single bike only, I would opt for a rigid mountain bike since it is cheap plus you could ride anywhere. I think you could get one with shimano deore 11s (w/clutch) + shimano hydraulic brakes for less than 20k given the parts are mix and match. Looking forward to your vids!
yai thought about that, but I think I would hate riding on the road. I love going offroad, but im still on the road more than I am off it unfortunately. Hence the gravel bikes
I would probably lean on 2nd hand market. Aim for a higher aluminum frame that has large tyre clearance e.g caadx, then spend money on decent light wheelset and fir 35 - 38 schwalbe all around tyres. Not too worried about the groupset, id be happy with a grx/tiagra 10 speed. The jump from 10 to 11 or 12 is marginal unless you are racing.
Lots of good deals in the second hand market right now. My canyon was second hand
I reckon the Nukeproof Digger gravel bike is a pretty good value. The alloy frame is rugged. And the different models offer a choice of components.
Chain Reaction was selling them for pretty decent prices recently.
BTW: I'd go 1X. - maybe something like an 11-46 cassette, with a 40T or 42T chain ring. Less to go wrong and it'll still get you up the hills.
Cheers
Thanks for the info!
I vouch for the Revolt! Love it to bits!!! 😍
Good choice!
didn't expect the first bike to be a fixed gear, I love my classic steal fixed gear, there's just something about it... even now that I just moved to Tagaytay, I still chooe to ride my fixed gear daily.
Oh wow fix gear in tagaytay has to be tough
for the 100K budget, I'd get the revolt ( or a merida silex) and swap the wheels to elite marvels. still under 100K but the ride quality would drastically improve. not that i'm saying there's something with stock wheels though. would be curious what would you get for 200K and 250K.
i do agree that a gravel bike would be the n+1 killer. get an aggressive frame but with tire clearance and swap out the tyres for whichever kind of ride (audax, light trail, gravel ) since I'm not into technical trails
For 200k or 250K, so many more choices. I would have to think about that one. But probably custom
Oooohhh custom! I’ve never even considered this for my next project. I’m just currently waiting for the 2024 version of aggressive gravel/cyclo cross to fulfill the n+1 killer objective. Eyeing the 2024 silex, bottecchia gravel, diverge or the salsa warbird
Fixed gear all the way! no shifting, no cables, no brakes, just bike, thoughts and prayers. seriously though check out the dosnoventa fixed gear frame, shits hot hahahha
Haha checked it out too expensive!
I still love fixed gear commuter bikes. No maintenance, highly durable. I learned that you don't need gears if you're just hitting small bumps and have flat terrain aka city riding.
That's why I keep my fix gear commuter bike
Got my merida silex 400 on sale 49k from 65k brandnew. Straight 10 speed grx. IMO best bang for the buck even if its in regular price 😊
That's a good choice too
hypothetically: would u do a midnight special again
in a heart beat
Midnight Special
Sweet bike
just build a bike, madaming second hand parts na matitino pa, ganyan din ako nong balak ko mag switch to rb nabenta ko ng maaga mtb ko kaya wala ako magamit😂, then onti onti kong nabili pyesang gusto ko and the frame also hanggang sa nabuo ko na.
Yeah I was thinking of putting that in the video. But I decided it would be easier to just buy a full bike. But definitely want to try putting a bike together
@Carlo Villarica - No Boring Days get a kespor GXT for 100k below
Thanks for sharing
Tracklocross for nature ride 😅
One of these days
Kespor Gsx Grx variant .
Thanks for sharing
That would be MTB right off the bath.
After an earthquake and you lost all your bikes?
Everything went to sh*t including the roads.
Hahaha Good point I didn't think of that
Giant bikes are waaaaay better than Kespor bikes 😎💯
Haha I'll take your word for it
kang mik na secret titanium bike is still the best value for 50k for me hahah
🤫🤫🤫🤫
Why spend money on a overpriced bike it's not worth it
Happy to hear suggestions
fixed gear!!!
Wooot
