GCN'S Commuter Challenge – What's The Best Way To Ride To Work?
bicycles reviews | bicycles videos | bicycles online
We just couldn't agree on the best bike to ride to work so we put them to the test over 20km. Subscribe to GCN: http://gcn.eu/SubscribeToGCN LIKE, SHARE and let us know if you commute to work by bike. Dan, Matt, Simon and Tom just couldn't agree on what was the best way to commute the 20km back to the office after filming a news show. So, they had a race. There was no prize for the winner, just the pride in proving that your chosen commute was the fastest, although there's still some debate about what's the best, so comment below and let us know your thoughts on that. Dan chose his folding bike, Matt chose his relaxed road bike with mudguards, Simon rode an aero racing bike, and Tom took the off road route on his 'cross bike.

So funny to hear Matt describe 25c tires as "wide"... Those are skinny by today's standards.
-
+Global Cycling Network Cant get tired of this video!
-
A fixed gear is the right choice :)
-
What do you wear? If youre going to work cycling do you have to change all clothing? Or you wear some special something to wear
-
Did anyone take the cycle path? 12 miles of uninterrupted loveliness!
-
I love making a commute on a mountain bike, because it gives the the same as the cross bike, but I can also mess around on the street.
-
i dont get what a cross bike is meant to be. it has tires for muddy places and is light? is that it?
-
Guys what tires are they running on the specialized cyclocross bike he mentions 28mm tyres, but it looks like they are running a conti cyclocross speed which only comes in a 35mm?
-
Nice wide 25's? I sport 35's :')
-
Hybrid bike supremacy
-
The only thing missing on this video is one guy with the Clarkson's type of jokes
-
The best commuter bike is a bmx or fixie... Comfortable and fun. Maybe a fixie is better for 20 km though xD. Even a mtb is fine, probably preferred. I feel like any proper road bike sucks for commute
-
Yes! more races, guys, please!
-
It all works only if there is a shower and a changing room in the office. Otherwise colleagues would push you to quit and go to another company due to smelling up the office.
Only the folding bike and train/bus is a useful combination for daily long-distance commuting. -
I have a old touring bike but it look exactly like a racing bike that Matt has but it's 20 year old but still going strong. And my birthday is coming up so should I get rid of the touring bike and get a proper racing bike
-
dan = stig, but what about the rest ????
-
why didnt you do a test crosscountry bike, vs cyclocross vs road bike for best commuting?
-
I used to ride a rigid mtb with a b17 and schwalbe 2.35 slick balloon tyres, comfy as hell, yet quick when I need it to be
-
The person who took the train defeated the purpose of using a bicycle for commuting, but it's important to show the practicality of that small bike, in that you can take the train with it and other things

Talking with British accent while being out of air must suck
