- Though the Stig has been a loyal companion on all of my dirty adventures, I desperately needed a properly fitted bike. I luckily found the perfect one in my size and desired color! In future videos, I will be showing you the upgrades and modifications I do to this bike.

that wine matte color is BEAUTIFUL!! i absolutely love Liv's bikes and this makes me like them even more!
It’s so perfect. The Liv advanced 1 and PRO come in really beautiful colors as well!! 😍😍😍
I just got this bike myself! So excited.
You will love this bike 💕💕💕
I can’t wait to see you out there. I have a similar Trek Checkpoint on back order. I can’t wait to get it
It’ll be so fun! You must be so excited for your bike, congrats!!
great video! I'm really leaning towards making the Devote my next bike and it was especially helpful to hear the modifications you made/want to make.
also +1 on gumwall -- SO classy 👌
You'll love this bike! I'm still waiting for new wheels but I just got the seat post and will be making a video about that shortly :)
Just to add looking at geo not much difference in reach but big difference in stack and seat tube
Thats right :)
El Joe 😂 great vid Lifes a GEM!! we want more we want more we want more lol. all your videos make me curious about trying out gravel cycling
Thanks for your support always! Lmk if you do, gravel bikes are AWESOME!
@@lifesagem definitely
Congrats on your new bike. Happy riding!
Thanks a bunch!
I know the struggle, I have a short upper body and long legs, so most bike charts put me on a 56cm with 172.5mm cranks but I ride a 52cm with 165mm cranks.
We’re the opposite! Are you making any changes to your bike? How does it feel?
Lovee the new bike!
Thanks, it’s awesome!
New bike days are exciting 😀 I get my Revolt in a week 😍
So exciting! So many adventures await ☺️
Nice bike! I highly recommend BTLOS carbon wheels, cheap and great customer service. Been hammering them on my mtb, great quality
Thanks for the recommendation, will look into them!
Great review! I have the same bike - M - have switched to Shimano Ultegra Fc-R8000 Crankset
165mm, 52/36 Ring, W/O BB, will also add the Garmin out front - and also hope to get carbon wheels!
Awesome! Let me know which carbon wheels you get!
@@lifesagem Will do!
congrats baby!
Thanks, I’m super stoked!!
Hi! I love your channel! Super new to bikes and I am looking for a bike that I can do a road ride with my husband and others but also be able to ride around with my kids at near by trails and the neighborhood. My husband was saying that if I got a gravel bike (looking at the Liv bikes) and had 2 sets of wheels, one for road rides and another set for when I want to take the kids to the trails, that would be the best option for me. This would also be the bike that I would work out on at home. OR would it be better to just have 2 bikes (road and mountain). Hoping to not break the piggy bank. So glad I found your channel. Its been hard to get info, even at local bike shops.
Welcome to the channel, thanks for watching! The only reason I have two bikes (one for road & one for gravel) is because I got my road bike first. If I didn’t have a road bike, I would definitely do what your husband said and get two set of wheels for the gravel bike. The devote is a great bike and it rides perfectly fine on different terrains. It’s lightweight, super compliant, and it’ll be the best option for your buck for sure! Hope this helps! Let me know what you decide in the end :)
@@lifesagem thanks! Can I use the gravel bike on a trainer?
@@vane_beatriz yes, as long as you have thru axle adapter!
@@vane_beatriz also, what type of trainer do you have?
I Love this New outro
Thanks!
can you please do a video on how to dress for biking? im new to this and just bought a gravel bike but aside from bike shorts and jersey i have no idea how to dress lol
What a great suggestion! I will totally make a video about this!
My partner is looking at getting one. She is 5"6" and relatively short in the legs so similar to you. According to Liv that puts her bang in the middle for a medium. Local shop only has a small. My concern going small is there may be too much drop from seat to handlebars. She prefers nearer level. Why did you go for small. I suspect being a roadie as well you like a lower position. Can't quite tell in your videos how much drop there is
I kinda went by the measurements on my rode bike, I use a 52' and the small was the closest to it.
2nd like. i think...... but anyways, what is the name of the bike? like your name for it? i would like to know. or its a surprise on Strava?
I haven’t added this bike to Strava but the name is La Xona 😁
How tall are you and what size is the frame? Just wondering on sizing
I’m 5’6 with and size S frame or 52
@@lifesagem what is your inseam length? I’m a tad over 5’7” and struggling with bike fit, as I have shorter legs as well and am in between sizes. Looking to purchase the specialized diverge comp E5 myself. Great video, beautiful bike!
Thank you for the report. A question: is the D-Fuse seat tube compatible with cylindrical cross section (i.e., regular) seaposts, and, if so, what’s the diameter?
Thank you.
Pardon me for objectifing you but...you look so cute in this video!
Don’t matter bro, she’s married so your comments are not getting you points 🤣🤣
S Feel X 🤣
