2019 Sequoia Elite

로드타기엔 좀 몸도 무겁고 마음도 무거워 차후에 자전거 여행을 떠나고파 구입한 세콰이어 마감이 좋고 단단하며 세련된 아이입니다. 다만 가방달고 악세사리 이것저것 달고 하니 어마무시하게 무겁게 느껴지지만 2022 여전히 사랑스럽습니다.

Ottima gravel, solidissima ed affidabile, ruote pesanti ma scorrevoli

Au delà de son colori camo, ce vélo est une véritable machine de guerre. Très polyvalent, il avale tous les terrains et se montre rapide quand le revêtement s'y prête. Ce n'est pas un vélo de gravel, ce n'est pas un vélo de randonnée, ce n'est pas un vélo de course. C'est beaucoup de tout cela sans en être l'exact vélo dédié.

Commute to work. Gravel road rides. Do wheelies. Get groceries. Occasional road ride. Rally on singletrack. Hit some jumps (yes. really.) Go Camping. Repeat. I come from a heavy mountain bike background. I have owned several road, cyclocross, and gravel bikes. Most felt twitchy, harsh, and after 3 hours left me questioning my decisions in life. None of them really clicked. Enter the Sequoia. This bike feels like a mountain bike in the dirt, and like a road bike on the pavement. Sure, it's heavier than a pure road bike. But it doesn't feel like it. It just plain wants to go. The ride quality offered by the steel frame and carbon fork are impeccable. The frame blends stiffness and compliance in all the right places. Big tires smooth out some of the harsher chatter, and the flared handlebars give you plenty of comfortable hand positions for any occasion. The super low bottom bracket and relaxed geometry leave you feel like you're down in a cockpit instead of perched up on the bike. As a result descending on the Sequoia is pure joy, be it on asphalt or on dirt. When it's time to climb, the bike is super stiff and ensures proper power transfer to the rubber. Every time I look at this bike I want to ride it. and Every time I ride this bike I am stuck with a big silly grin on my face. Simply put: the Sequoia is an endless party on two wheels.

맨날 로드만 타다가 그래블이 뙇 하고 한정 출시된걸 보고 바로 구매했습니다. 동탄 샵에서 리툴로 사이즈도 재고 인터넷 구매후 출고 받고 느낀건, 햐... 편하다.... 그리고 어제 눈와서 타고 자출했는데 눈길 주행이 너무 재밌습니다. 로드로는 꿈도 못꾸는 모험하는 느낌.
