Что такое флекс у велосипеда? Почему "жесткий велосипед" - не всегда хорошо? Почему рама гнётся?

In this video, we discuss why modern bicycles "flex"—and why this isn't a defect, but the norm. We'll explore how materials work, what flex is, and why manufacturers deliberately incorporate it into their designs. Without the myths about "stiffness" and "eternal stiffness." We'll discuss where exactly a bicycle should flex and where it should remain rigid, and how this balance affects comfort, grip, control, and rider fatigue. We'll show you how you can understand a bicycle's character by its tube cross-sections and overall design—even without riding it. This is especially important when choosing a bike, when you want to understand what you're actually buying, rather than relying on marketing descriptions. ▶️ VELOSKLAD: http://www.velosklad.ru Contents: 00:00 - Welcome 00:49 - FLEX: How the frame works 09:32 - Why you need FLEX: Plasticine frames 20:29 - FLEX is marketing: plasticine at a high price 24:05 - FLEX in brief: We've learned a lot 26:27 - Conclusions: We've learned a LITTLE more 💡 Tube Cart: https://t.me/VeloskladRu 💬 And you found us on VK: https://vk.com/velosklad_ru 📖 For the most knowledgeable - Zen: https://dzen.ru/velosklad 🌀 Now also in MAX: https://max.ru/velosklad_ru 🎁 PROMO CODES for bicycles and accessories: https://www.velosklad.ru/velo-news/in... 🤘 VeloSklad Team:    / @veloskladteam   🦈 Ask Forel, the channel's host, a question: #MaxInAnswer https://t.me/VeloskladRu
