Join a week of Autumn commuting in Seoul, South Korea. I share 5 tips of what I think you need to look for in a commuter bike. From the tiny Brompton to the Monopole cargo bike and then my selection of Rivendells. What tips would you share?

I’m in the middle of the US and there even out here is a huge amount of hatred towards cyclists. Does anybody ever get upset with you in SK? We get it from pedestrians and drivers alike.
Friday, Im in love ❤
Dressed up to the eyes
It's a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throw out your frown
And just smile at the sound
Sleek as a shriek, spinning 'round and 'round
Always take a big bite
It's such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It's Friday, I'm in love with this channel!
I love the stories you told during the rides in this vid
So the Atlanta’s is your favourite,
Is the Susie too long?
If you swapped all componetary from atlantas to susie, what would be the difference?
Such an awesome stable of bikes! You would take the Atlantis over the Clem? I own neither, but i see the Clem as a do it all plus off road capable. Your content of the city is great as are your bikes and commentary.
i really need to know, what are those triangles hanging from your bike seat? i've seen only seen this from youtube videos of other cyclist channels
this is so calming to watch thank you.
This channel is by far my most favorite. Very practical and just awesome! Ride your bike more and you would love your bike even more. Please keep the content coming 👍
The Suzy is just too cool, I’d be riding it all the time too…
You should probably get a new Charlie Gallop model for commuting it looks like it would be perfect….👍🏼 💸💸💸lol
hi! what is the name of the friday's bike bags?
Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮 Your videos always inspire me to ride my bike 😊 What comes to food culture, when visiting Finnish homes, food is a bit so-so, you might get served but it’s certainly not guaranteed. Coffee is much more essential here ☕️
I’m a student subscriber studying in Noryangjin. I hope to go on a small ride with subscribers next time. Want winter bungeoppang is delicious😊
i love your videos they help me relax, greetings from Adelaide, AU
Loved this. What a stable of bikes you have!
Could we get an ID on the pannier bag you put in the Atlantis please? 🙂
The step-through Rivendell is your prettiest bike.
you do need at least one drop bar bike just for fun
That "I fucking love riding my bikes" was so relatable! Wish I wasn't looking at a forecast of sideways rain for the whole week. 🥲
I know it's been said inumerous times, but if you hate your commute nothing is better than doing it by bike, as hard as it may be, it makes the worst part of your day the best part of your day.
I love seeing all the bike/ped infrastructure from the rider's POV!
Hey so why not dyno's on some/all of these bikes? Seems to fit your use. My approach is #dynoeverything! Once I was spoiled with dyno-equipped bikes, I never wanted to ride anything else.
And thanks for the little invitations and questions you posted in the video. In my neck of the woods, we mostly let guests go hungry! Food isn't expected anyway, but it does feel good to feed guests when possible.
what type of tires do you have on the atlantic? and size? my commuter is a surly ogre xxl with 2.25 tires! its pretty heavy so maybe I have to go down some size, what do you recommend on a commuter?
What's that bar that you clipped onto the bike at 14:30 used for?
I've been cycling to uni for a year on a 90s mtb that I've been slowly adapting for the city. it was 35€, and it's a really fun bike, both for commuting and for longer rides. Commuting on a different route every day seems fun, maybe I'll try it out
I love the Cure reference! Perfect timing with their new release.
Yet again another beautiful video, thank you so much for sharing a part of your world with the rest of us 🙏🏻
I commute every day rain or shine on my Surly preamble, it’s definitely more speed oriented but I have swept back bars to help with comfort. Just got some full length mid guards fitted for winter too, a must in the UK.
Side note, I almost spat out my drink when you dropped the F bomb, it was like hearing your parents swear for the first time 😂 I fucking love riding my bike too! Hopefully adding a Brompton to my stable soon too
i bought a minivelo ebike [orbea katu] months ago and already have hundreds of kms on it. Bike commuting is the cheat code to a happier day, any day.
I've. been commuting on my bike for as long as I can remember!! Glad to see you enjoy it too….😊….Planning to buy a rivendell clem Smith…I like riding with my elbows tucked in..i hope the clem allows for it
In Kazakhstan we’re often taking some desserts or fruits as a guest and those who invite – would offer tea/coffee at least, or a dinner if time suits.
