Do you think there are gains to be made by running deeper wheels even with 2.2in tires? I'm coming more from the ultradistance bikepacking perspective.

Good freaking job man!

“Marginal gains” Sounds kinda shady, lol

if my ftp is 130w bcs im 14 and I trained 6 weeks this year, is that possible to increase it in 6 weeks before race?

Congratulations!!!🎉🎉🎉

Awesome ..... Glad you spoke about temp management.

The best pressure is the max pressure listed on the tire's sidewall. Enough already ~ get out there and ride ...

Watching from Australia , top ride mate , did all you can, you mentioned Paris Roubaix , unbound reminds me of it, I rode the amateur version.

Omits the opposite: roads bikes that become more like cross or thin width gravel bikes.

this is golden info!

how do you place your garmin or wahoo?

Dumping water on yourself bypasses the kidneys. Kidneys will likely be shutting off or slowing down when you spike cortisol/adrenaline. Im surprised more people dont do this. source : pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/6567229/#:~:text=Effective%20renal%20plasma%20flow%20is,when%20strenuous%20work%20is%20performed.

As a student I committed to work and university, 2 short but fast rides. Slow was boring and as I got fitter I pushed harder and harder over the 10 to 15 miles. Some hills I treated like a hill sprint, and after a while I found you were fit on both the morning and evening commute. Lining up for my first mountain bike race I naturally started near the back, not being too confident of my abilities. As we progressed up the first hill I surprised myself and mates in slowing catching most of the field. My endurance was not there for the last 30 min of the race but I still did surprisingly well. Later as an amateur enthusiast snd racer, I commuted to work then did a structured workout after work. Although there might not be studies to support it,I think there was be some benefits to us in doing the odd 2 rides per day esp if time does not allow us a longer one.

Body weight can cause downfall in speed Make sure lose to weight exercise off the bike Going to gym or outside park

Sooooo what’s the fastest tire for 80 percent pavement and 20 percent dirt. Hard pack ??

Congrats, Dylan! Well done!!

I'm not sure what is better, your result on the day or your analysis presented in this video. Either way, both are stellar and tons of regular joe's are cheering you on!!!

im not a fan of squats or dead lifts because theyre glute dominate. the trap bar and raising the heels can help target the quads more. but better for quads are the barbell hack squat, basically knees over toes targets quads more. some really good body weight ones are the reverse nordic, sissy squat, and one leg lunge holding the back foot with one hand or to make it harder two hands, and all of those can be done with weight too.

Epic bro!

Put a Surly Corner Bar on a hardtail with some 2.1 Mezcals. The bike does everything well and love the new dropbar feel. Was able to keep the original levers. And I think a lot of this is in thanks to the faster mountain bike tires that are available.

I am bought in on the bigger tires, but limited by my frame. I can squeeze 700x47 which I am currently running but the bike also accepts 650x56 (2.2"). Is it worth it to go to 650 for the extra 9mm or so? I already have a set of 650 wheels but they are not aero like my 700 wheels.

Where did you go to the bathroom?

Very nice ride

Congrats! Amazing result Dylan 🥳

Been riding for a while and i used to ride an old Raleigh with 700 wheels and big tires and a flat bar. It was considered a Frankenstein but it worked. Seems like a gravel bike to me and it reminds me of older bikes. Keep riding and honestly who cares about labels.

You left out the RR on your bike?

Proud of you too Dylan! All your hardcore nutrition, science aero & marginal gains are paying off! Congrats!

Well done!

An absolutely necessary video! I get blood work done regularly due to other health issues and my iron tends to drop like a cliff during heavy training blocks and race season. I started noticing weakness and breakage in my hair during these heavy training blocks and general fatigue as well. In my most recent blood test, my iron stores were "near depletion" from what my doc said, who then prescribed pre-natal supplements, which have made a massive difference. My diet is great and I'm very cognizant about getting everything I need. Supplements are great but maybe I'm just not getting enough from dietary sources--maybe it's time to reassess.

I hate saddle height

This is ABSOLUTELY true. I found out I was extremely iron deficient a few years ago, and after I started to take slow-release iron supplements, I felt SO much better. It is a world of difference.

Mountain biking in a Third-World country, my pacing strategy depends on whether I come across dogs, bulls or goats 😅

@DylanJohnsonCycling congrats on your Unbound Gravel performance! I enjoyed this TR review, very informative. Any chance you could do another updated review 3 years on from this one? Thanks

Wait….so like…the adult diapers do save half a watt or don’t…asking for a friend

Congrats, Dylan. Well-earned

"You might think I'm mad for taking so much water with me... But we actually measured it on a scale and I'm 2 kilograms lighter carrying 7 litres of water!"

Shut up about tyres bro 😂

Let‘s clarify the most important question: Where/when do you pee during a race like this?

Congrats Dylan, & thanks for 'letting' an Aussie win! ;-) Although not riding gravel myself, like you I've been playing with a forward saddle position for years now, even more so that we understand its benefits for aero. Like you, I was maxxed out on 0 deg seatpost with how forward my saddle nose could be, the UCI's 50mm reg aside. (Rereading those regs actually allows the nose to be aligned with the BB, hence 'my' move forward.) So, to my point, whilst I recently found a Swiss company who makes a replacement post top mount to move forward or back some 27mm (?) distance, Profile Design make some posts set forward, too. For both my endurance and training bike I've grabbed a pair of older model PD alloy posts which offer a forward 44mm position. For my race bike I just grabbed a more modern carbon version offering 38mm from eBay. (It's 90gms lighter, slightly more aero and hopefully more compliant too.) Now that I have my 3 PD posts, it's safe to share this idea with someone willing to share all their ideas with us and who tries new things.

Creatine?

incredibly informative, cited , and common sense infused big fan for a base line

Congratulations! Great ride

Please keep the w/kg numbers on screen when showing the power profiles. Thanks! Keep up the good work.

Congratulations Dylan alot of hard work went into a super deserved top 10 finish 💪👍❤

Huge props man!
