How Much Slower Does A Cheap Bike Climb?

Alex and Ollie are in Spain and brought along the cheapest bike we have at GCN… the $300 ‘superbike’ from Amazon: the Eurobike. It’s heavy, it’s slow, and it’s the bike Andrew Feather was riding the only time we have ever beaten him in a race! But how much slower is this budget bike up a climb? We took it to one of the toughest ascents in Spain, the Alto de Velefique, to find out!
