Gravel bikers trying to explain how their not road booking on leaves

[PuffinPass]

Best is subjective because the route the MTB took I would have taken on a gravel bike and had just as much fun with it.

[tomjenkins]

The gravel bike could've take the exact route of the MTB? You may as well had a video called MTB vs road bike with the way he's riding it.

e-mtb vs gravelbike lol nice comparison.

[psoostero]

Well, perhaps each of us should enjoy the ride we have. Mine is gravel so I enjoy the gravel roads, double track and tarmac. And sometimes single track if it isn’t too crazy and happens to be on one of my routes.

Gravel bike= makes simple or nearby trails more fun

Mountain bike= performance


Mtb: if you have a bike with alot of travel or a full sus, it can make simple or local trails feel boring or too easy

( its not like you are going to the place where you need all that performance all the time)❤

[LightS_bRight]

You didn't do the gravel bike justice. It could have done most of the mountain bike route too

[vonderwort]

gravel, gravel, gravel….. 🚴🏼‍♂️🚴🏼‍♂️🚴🏻‍♀️🤌🏼

[jalanit]

Full Rigid MTBs are also a trend here in my country.

[mooose]

With the upgrades gravel bikes are eventually just going to be mountain bikes with drop down bars

[FunctionFIVE]

Apples to oranges unfortunately. Though I feel you will know everyone's answer here considering it's the GMBN YouTube channel

[nagylevi]

Stupid question. They're designed for different purposes. It's like comparing a lawn mower to a hair clipper. Both are great at what they do.

[oochicken]

Depends what your wanting to do with the bicycle obviously 😛

[Toretto]

Gravel bike is faster, lighter, more efficient and more aero dynamic everywhere except on trails.

Gravel bike: semi offroad race motorcycle with pedals that goes bike speed experience.
Mountain bike: offroad motorcycle with pedals but without a motor experience.

[nobinobita]

That’s not gravel riding that’s road riding the title should be :Road riding VS Gravel Riding
