Скачать или смотреть I Put Flat Bars On My Gravel Bike, Should You?

Is the gravel bike just a 90s mountain bike with drop bars? Owen strips away the roadie DNA and converts our gravel rig into a flat-bar ATB (All-Terrain Bike) to see if it improves trail confidence and comfort. We dive into the technical hurdles of brake compatibility and cockpit geometry to find out if this is a genuine performance upgrade or if we’ve just ruined a perfectly good bike.
