💯Bikes nowadays are RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE 💯
Is this a reupload? I am sure I have seen this before
A rerun? YouTube glitch? Deja Vue?
Giant TCR Advanced is another model that I would like to see an update
With the financial uncertainty regarding Vitus it's very unprofessional and irresponsible from you to have the brand in a video like this.
really, just find a decent used bike from the past 10 years, they are fine and the owner will appreciate that the bike isnt collecting dust
See Megamo bikes.
I’m feeling déjà vu. Wasn’t this already uploaded?

Honestly, there's nothing wrong with these bikes..the industry will sucker the bike community to think these bikes are out dated..they'll update them with fancy curves to justify the 3,000 mark up..its all marketing, it's all a business..
You missed out a fantastic British brand, Pearson cycles, they've got a brilliant range
How could you skip GIANT?
I love my cube litening aero, and i think it looks great. The weight actually is pretty competetive compared to other aerobikes, and the wind tunnel performance is top of the pack.
I was very close to buying a Felt AR Advanced Ultegra Road Bike at a very good price at a certain online retailer. What stopped me was the integrated handlebar and stem that came in a single stock side (too wide and too short for my fit). By the time I'd factored in the cost of a replacement in my size it didn't make much sense. Seems crazy to me that even 10k+ bikes don't give you a choice of bar width and stem length (and crank arm length)…
I swear I saw you talking about the cube air needing a refresh before. Is ti a reupload? It sure is.
I just bought a secondhand roadbike for €300 and it’s briljant.

Don’t buy vitus… if you do buy using a credit card
My Felt AR is impressive. Build quality is on another level compared to the big brands. Finding a dealer can be a problem.
Focus just updated the izalco
I want a US-made (or at least US-available) tripled-butted steel "endurance" road bike with cable-actuated 2×10/11, rim brakes, externally-routed cables throughout, QR dropouts, and high-end alloy wheels. Nobody other than custom builders is going to make that, so used bikes will continue to be my focus.
I'd like the choice of a super light and stiff RIM BRAKE bike like Canyon used to sell. I simply developed a deep seated dislike for disc brakes and it looks like I have to build my next bike myself.
The Felt AR Advanced 105 di2 seems like a good option. 12s at a competitive price
Very hard to listen this guy.
It is insane to me that this is the "bang for your buck" list and looking at some of the models presented you are still in the $4k+ USD range. That is not budget category at all. To say that this video and these "bang for your buck" brands are completely out of touch would be an understatement.
Look up Felt’s pricing, then look at the specs relative to… anything else? It’s horrible value for money, with a complete lack of dealer support to boot.
Isn’t Vitus owned by now/soon to be bankrupt Signa Sports (Wiggle/CRC group) ?
I love this guy. Dry dynamic presenter. Well done.
