Thanks for this Excellent review
Comment from : Stephen Fahy

12:53 is there a dropbar cube bike you can recommend too? (Less than 1800€ so a competitor to the focus atlas 67?) And are there any other competitors to the atlas I should have a look at?
Comment from : Fabian L

The people cycling in the video seem to need motorized dirt bikes Expedition bikes would seem to be better suited to most of these activities I think of touring bikes being on mostly paved roads
Comment from : Aries Mars Express

Best flat pedals for touring?

Comment from : Biz Comment

Dangl cannot find the handlebars l like, but l saw them on this video at 504 to 516a girl cyclist on a surly bikethose are the very bars l am looking forcan you tell me the name of them or where l might git embrMany thanksbrRicky
Comment from : Bicycle camping lreland

Can you tell me the name of thd surly bike at the beginning of this videol am very interested in the handlebars of thd green model shon
Comment from : Bicycle camping lreland

So frustrating All the dedicated touring bikes with flat bars are European bikes that are expensive or impossible to buy in the United States My only option ends up being to alter a drop bar bike I really wish I could buy the bike I actually want, rather than having to build it
Comment from : David Hernston

Excelle3nt and very informative video!!! Thanks!!!
Comment from : Sammy Santiago

You do very helpful & interesting videos ,thank you , I've watched your report on bike weight I have a Thorn Nomad & a Surly Ogre ,I like them both except when it comes to lifting them over gates & fences ,I've had back problems in the past ,So now I'm considering a Titanium frame ,The Sonder Broken road with pinion is the main contender minus the suspension fork Do you think this is a wise choice ?
Comment from : Kevin Dean

So I have a Titus silk road with the same 3-bolt seatstay rack mounts as the Riverside Touring bike featured at 7minutes in this video sold by decathlon I can’t find these racks sold anywhere Help?
Comment from : Andrew Miller

I read somewhere that your dream bike would have a Thorn Nomad frame ? what would the other components be ?
Comment from : Kevin Dean

Dude thanks for making this video! I watched it a month ago and learned of the Masi, and after careful consideration bought it I was hesitant about the lack of information online I just got it yesterday and took it for a 26 mile test ride today and it is frickin awesome The price is actually amazing when looking at the components The tubus racks are another amazing touch I also love the bar end shifters-- also the bike is just flat out beautiful with a lot of small Masi details that stick to their tradition
Comment from : CC

Brilliant video, thank you!
Comment from : J R

What about the VSF bikes? What do you think of the Kona Sutra bikes?
Comment from : Benjamin Holt

No mention of Surly LHT
Comment from : Philip ORourke

The Giramonda is now specced with all microshift stuff, nothing Shimano What do you think of the Fuji Touring Disc?

Comment from : Gabriel Riani Pafiadache

get the smallest chainring available in the front and the largest cog gear in the rear you instantly have the lowest gear possible !
Comment from : plutoplatters

With many things there's NO best With most things today there's a LOT of bests
Comment from : plutoplatters

Hello there and thank you for this prety useful and good video One model I will suggest, it is Cube Nature EXC Well I personally have one and it's 2019 model, but until today they didn't chaged a lot, only minor things Bike is categozed as fitness bike or trekking bike, but is is very versatile It comes from factory with 28" tires 44mm wide, the frame can accept tires up to 2,25" Can take rack mounts and kickstand and comes with shimano drivetrain with 30 speeds and 63mm coil fork I converted mine drastically, so it can take steep hills and I put wider tires Currenty it's 1x11 34t oval AB and 11-51 cassette in the back, tires are 21" tubeless set up, new hubs and DT enduro rims, so it can literally go anywhere I want For is also replaced with RS Reba RL 100mm, I also upgraded brakes to 180mm rotors and whole braking system to M8000-M8100 combo I have done 3000-4000 Km with it and for myself it is really really great bike
Comment from : zdravo

Haven’t heard of most these bikes 😂 it’s difficult to get bikes in India and to get the ones named here,would take ages Wish we had access to these bikes in India 😢
Comment from : TheLostDoc

Bullseye!
Comment from : zohaib aslam

A trekking bike with a spring fork or a bike with a 24” low gear would be just about the worst possible choice regardless of the low price
Comment from : billz410

Any American brands closely matching Koga or Tout Terrain? Rohloff, steering lock, internal routing dynamo, etc
Comment from : elaichiChai

As always your videos are really well done I bought a Cube travel 3 or 4 years ago and really love it I just wish cube would add a few more braze- ons for a lower water mount and maybe a few more on the fork It is really a hell of a value I also have a Focus that I bought first that is a great bike It will only handle a 38 mm tire and also is lacking frame mounts
Comment from : Brian Faris

My tours that I have done stand now at around 50 000kmand I am not done yetI never used a Touring BikeI use trailersSo far i never had a problem with any of the bikes I usednever broke a single spokewhy trailers??? I feel more orginised with trailers and I dont need a $7 000 touring bikerather spend the money on my next tourYes I go off road as well
Comment from : Save a Nation

Nothing mentioned about 'Azor" dutch swede bike ?
Comment from : Raymnd StannSki

Ever heard about Heinz Stuckehe is officially the most traveled person on a bicycle and still going strong on an ordinary bicycle
Comment from : JAIDEEP Khodaskar

Thorn Nomad
Comment from : Richard Swinson

Thankyou Alee When I can, I’ll be getting your book bundle (touring and bikepacking bikes) I’ve said before that I’m a noob, but I’m heading into nerd country, fast 🤭 With your extensive experience and knowledge, I can take my time choosing the right bike for me and learn loads on the way 🫶🏻
Comment from : Queen Of Hearts

Thanks for the update: What are your thoughts about the priority 600 with a pinion gear box? I really like the low maintenance of this bike I value your opinion as I am thinking of purchasing this bike for a long distance tour next summer cheers
Comment from : Brian Tyhy

Why do this video when you cant find any of these in a shop to even look at much less buy !
Comment from : Eddie Sikes

oh, i was looking at surly long haul trucker, but i guess it is not good/value-for money enough for you? thanks
Comment from : Vivian Poon

the riverside touring 900 really caught my eye, but it seems to impossible to buy now
Comment from : cyclist James vlogs

Thanks for the awesome content Alee! Your buyers guide and tech content were super helpful for buying my first touring bike, and the travel docos are fantastic brbrJust a note for anyone that does go for the Cube Travel, and wants to improve the climbing gear with a 36 tooth casette You may also need to swap out the crank or get an abnormally long chain to cope with the 48 tooth ring up front and the 36 toother out back Happily this just means you improve the climbing gear even more to 167 gear inches, but something to factor in when buyingbrbrAlso the standard rack isn't great for Ortlieb panniers as the hooks have few places where they can fit nicely Ideally it needs more straight bits of rail without joins and welds in the way In time I think I'll upgrade to a Tubus rear rack but for now,I'm loving the bike and can't wait to take it out on my next tour Cheers!
Comment from : Ben Harris

Iam 5' 4" will this bike be to big?
Comment from : Nicole Ainsworth

Tourers cover a wide range of types, depending on the load, road surface and terrain Also, do you want your bike to do more than one thing, maybe touring self sufficiently with all food, clothing, tent, little stove but also using it for fast training? Mine is in the fast touring category, Reynolds 531 with 700 x 28 or 32 mm tyres and 28 inch to 96 inch derailleur Campagnolo groupset For example, several times when crossing countries I've taken part in bike races Bike tourers are always welcome because you are non-threatening and can speak to people I have often been invited home or fed In Australia a woman had broken down and left me to look after her daughter when she went to get help People trust you whereas they would not trust a male car driver You can smell the country air, see wild animals, drink water from the stream and get extraordinarily fit Viva la bike!

Comment from : Alan on his Giant Revolt

Yeah Disc brakes Like they never are a hassle and don't brake without the need for specific unavailable parts
Comment from : rosomak

What an incredible video! Wow Thank you
Comment from : G

I tried to order an ebike after thinking about it over a year and fed ex could not get it delivered to my house I tried telling them to deliver it after five when i got off work and they wouldn't do it If you are an ebike company i would think about using a different company to ship your ebikes They only use a call center in India as there customer service You can not speak directly to a FedEx representative They are terrible at getting a package delivered to there customer, beware Now they are saying the label is scratched and it can not be scanned i can not even go pick it up I should of had it almost a week ago Now it has to go all the way back to the warehouse
Comment from : Dave

"this is going to be a long video so strap yourself in" For a cycling channel an open goal was missed when you didn't say instead "get yourselves clipped in"
Comment from : Simon K

Just look at those riders! Their bottoms are perched up in the air to extend their reach for frames that are not designed to fit comfortably They sit on a seat (saddle!) just a bit more comfortable than the seat tube They ride along a country road in the fresh air on a lovely day! Not the common path from apartment to the supermarket! Bicycles are now sold online, where one cannot examine them or in boutiques that charge $100 for a helmet The helmet offers no protection against the common accident, collision with an automobile!
Comment from : Goedelite Kurt

Anyone who spends more than $200 on a bicycle in the US is unlikely to find it a practical purchase Where does one ride a bicycle? On the streets and avenues, where cars are king? On the broken sidewalks that cities cannot afford to maintain? In competition with e-bikes and pedestrians? Bicycles are not practical for transportation in the US for most people
Comment from : Goedelite Kurt

i would choose Cube reasonable price range and super great bike
Comment from : Wilhelm Maximus

I have my 1985 Dawes Ranger, LWB, 531 reynolds, relaxed geometry, light, tan Schwalbe table top 235s tyres to smooth out gravel and bumps
Comment from : Harry O

The Rocky Road is not on On-One's web site now Discontinued?
Comment from : John Spurlin

Were do you put the Priority 600 on your list of touring bikes? I love the idea of the gates and pinion drivetrain
Comment from : Robert Greder

I absolutely love that you are using gear inches I completely agree with a low gear of about 20 inches This is how I'm putting my own touring bike together What would you recommend as a high gear? I'm going for 78" Does that sound about right?
Comment from : Seymour Sunshine

If money/value wasn't factored in ,what would be your top choice ?
Comment from : Kevin Dean

Tout terrain silk road 2 275
Comment from : sloth sloth

FANTASTIC REVIEWS Thank you for your time, finally an exceptionally well presented video with tons of RELEVANT information A BIT OF A ONE OFF, videos like this Just subscribed Can i also ask, your thoughts on a more premium adventure bike, like the end section of this video, The bikes i like are the Surly Ogre, The Bombtrack Beyond Plus adv The thing after watching this now is, i like the idea of sitting up and having a much more relaxed position, so i may have to swap style over substance, if that's the right way to put it I ride with my wife in he evenings an electric bike the Rad Plus and it's such a comfortable riding position, except for the seat Apologies i seemed to have droned on a bit
Comment from : Westcountry Homes Online

You don't have my 1980 Univega Specialissima listed here Probably the second best touring bike ever made Just behind the Miyata 1000; and the same company who made the Univega Specialissima It's for sale if someone wants a "true" touring bike
Comment from : bigwheelsturning

Hellow!! excelente work in these videos I wonder if you could explain wich rigid forks you consider the best, wich brands would you prefer I would like to update my mountain bike to touring, so thank you if you read and answer me 😊
Comment from : Julián Soria

Dude please make it simpler to purchase your guides
Comment from : David Campbell

you forgot 'fixabiity' as a criteria, plenty of places around the world will struggle to fix STI shifting or disc brakes for example, simple is best, also steel is easiest to re-weld
Comment from : Calligraphy Research Group

Interesting video! I have maybe one addition: have you seen the Giant AnyTour CS 1? It looks like an amazing value for a belt driven touring bike as well with the only disadvantage being the shimano alfine 8 hub But even if you would swap the shimano hub for a rohloff hub aftermarket it's still a cheap bike
Comment from : Steven

I think touring bikes are the best for commuting I use one to get around my city, carrying things to and from work, getting groceries ect Its the best
Comment from : AlucardtheOne1

I have all of the guides , I'm based in the UK & trying to but a bike from another country especially USA the import duties & vat are unbelievable ,let alone shipping this restricts any purchase to my own country :(
Comment from : Kevin Dean

I'm prefer steel frame more than aluminum frame
Comment from : Poman Ku

now I will rate my 1970's Raliegh Competition ( double butted 531 chrome moly sprint bike) against these criteria I think it's quite lively frame will fall short, as will its fork angle, and it's huret bottom bracket never supported alpine gears and sadly the bottom bracket threads dont meld with any modern bottom bracket and gear set I know aboutaw but it was so lively ( when I was half the weight and twice the strength I am now !)
Comment from : Capt Larry -

Would manufacturers stop putting front lights where the mudguards are also attached as this position is far to low and would they also stop using cheap useless lightsthe led revolution should afford a desent offering assuming lights have any importance on a bike?
Comment from : Pete Turner

Have you ever tried the Priority 600 ? Price is attractive, Pinion gear box plus mostly cheap components, I wonder if the frame is stiff enough for long touring ?
Comment from : ve9vic bicycle ( Rino)

Great
Comment from : kad d

VSF fahrradmanufaktur série TX , the best for Touring Bike
Comment from : Jérôme

I would never, ever bought travel bike with chain That's a maintenance hellbrAll these bikes you mentioned have chains not belt
Comment from : Podunk Man

I'm intrigued to know if you've ever narrowed down a list of the best touring bikes for tall guys? I know you'd mentioned the Curve Titanasaur previously as a bike that tall guys might consider I ride a custom Zinn road bike - with 210mm cranks, so I know the difference a bike that is set up for a tall guy can make (I'm 2m tall)
Comment from : Adrian McKenzie

You may as well just take your SUV, or cargo van Bikes should be minimalist Also, I’ve never seen or heard of any of those bikes There are so many bike companies How do they all survive?
Comment from : Chuck Matses

Is the Co-Motion Americano any good?

I just noticed you used two of my pictures! 😎

Comment from : Hands on Deck

I am amazed not to see Priority 600X I guess this channel takes mostly European Bikes Because In USA 🇺🇸 Priority Adventure 600x is popular among us
Comment from : K Arvind

I have watched this a few times now, going back for information that answers questions that come to mind as I rebuild and source the correct products, due to your reviews thank you for everything

Comment from : Ο ΚΟΥΡΣΑΡΟΣ

Yeah, the pandemic hit right before I was supposed to pick up my bike We were banned from the city I needed to go to and they wouldn't deliver After a year the shop refunded me I went to the local shop, bought a GIANT hybrid, ordered parts online and made a tourer It has an aluminum frame and I definitely feel the wobble I just learned to distribute the loads better Surprised at the stock components the bike came with The handlebars and tires I kept, but the drive train was heavy and it had no racks It's done me solid for two years but I'm definitely looking to re-enter the higher end touring bike market
Comment from : Marco

How come you didn't recommend any Rohloff specced bikes? I've read so many times in your blog how wonderful they are and these are all derailleur bikes :-)
Comment from : gepardtilly

where and how i can get that guide book?brbecause im planning next 2023 cycling around the world
Comment from : Von_28

could you please recommend some budget touring bikes? Your recommendation is way beyond my budget$2000 or more definitely will buy a good one, but it is prohibitive
Comment from : bob tom

Five minutes in and I have chosenwhere can I get a Masi Giramondo in the UK? We need to know!
Comment from : Ron White

Any Thoughts on foldups I plan end to end UK on Tern Link P24H I reckon It will Make It ?
Comment from : Jeremy Livingstone

After watching your video on the World traveler koga bike I have been researching getting a bike with the rohloff hub with a gates belt The genesis web page does not list the longitude but has the brixton with a nexis hub I am located in canada so went to the panorama web page I love to get the koga but it's in the netherlands and I am in canada I'll keep looking thanks for sharing your knowledge cheers
Comment from : Brian Tyhy

I need a bike that can carry 150kg does anyone have a suggestion?
Comment from : The Biertriot

Keep it up Curious to know your thoughts on the Marin four corners as it's a very popular bike in North America and considered for gravel / touring / backpacking
Comment from : Baz Dawah

What about my Scott Sub 20just fully fitted it out as a world touring bikebrOr should I stick with my 25 year old Dawes?
Comment from : Clive Brookes

That Riverside is absurdly good!
Comment from : Robin Rai

Koga Miyata bikes are good Dutch bikes But Santos and Avaghon are better, in my opinion Both also manufacturers in the NetherlandsbrBecause max weight (bike and rider) on koga is 120kg And Santos and Avaghon 180kg!

Have you seen the Falkenjagd Hektor suspension fork? I love those bikes but not the price tag so much

Comment from : Albina Tyrell

Hi, Alle I thought I'd bring you up to date on my ongoing attempt to purchase a new KOGA World Traveler My communications to the KOGA retailer in Basel, Switzerland were finally uncovered by the store owner---in his junk mail folder He communicates to me that the price for the World Traveler is now 2799 CHF which converts to $3011 US Dollars The price you're showing on this video (at 8:31) of 2199 Euros or 2415 USD is no longer being honored That $600 price jump was a bridge too far If you should hear of anyone selling a used World Traveler please keep me in mind Maybe one day I'll be able to get on the EuroVelo 6 and head off on a proper retired person's adventure Be well!!
Comment from : Richard Cheatham

Speaking from experience, the best touring bike does NOT have flat bars I wish I had used flared drop bars on my tour Numb hands for weeks afterwards
