Is This Cycling's Next Big Thing? | Road Bike Vs MONSTER Gravel Bike

Being as lanky as Conor is, it’s always been difficult to get a bike that fits properly. With standard 700c wheels, he looks like he’s on a child’s bike, but finding something more appropriate is challenging to say the least.

So instead of looking for someone else to do it for him, Conor went away and designed his own bike around a set of huge 36 inch wheels he managed to find. This absolute monster of a machine would make anyone else look like an infant, but it fits Conor perfectly, so Hank decided to put him to the test on a “social” ride.
