THE BEST BIKE FOR A 200KM FLAT MTB RACE!?
Спорт
Bartje 200, a Dutch classic, 200km of sandy roads and MTB tracks in the Netherlands. Flat as a pancake, but still pretty technical, what could be the ideal bike for this? We test our three top picks and let you know at the end what we'd choose for next time :)
Oh, and we got pretty dirty.

Mikey showing mad single track skills...you legend.,!! ✌️

Netherlands & Fernwee keep on giving. Ride on and on, team 🤙
Ahh Fruity!! Great video, you boys are fast and fit! 💪💪🏁🏁🏁
Thanks for this one. Interesting talk at the end of the video. Very helpful for me. Already looking forward to the next one. Greetings from Hamburg.
Nice work boys, I particularly enjoyed the guy falling off behind Mikey at 9.55, but maybe that's a bit mean!

I am on making my Scott more gravel friendly, considering Vittoria tires you used and was looking for more "aero" grip solution on handlebars for some time as well. Really interested in those "inner" grips you used on your Raven, could you provide more info about them? Thanks!
