Machen leichte Gänge am Berg wirklich schneller?

Climbing is the ultimate challenge for every cyclist. But what's the best way to reach the top? In this video, Laurin and Patrick test two very different approaches on the infamous Irschberg climb in Bavaria: "pushing" a high gear at a low cadence (50 RPM) versus the modern "cranking" technique with a high cadence. We also take a look at the evolution of gear ratios in cycling – from Eddy Merckx to the present day. 🚲 Send us pictures or videos of your bike and with a little luck, you could be featured in our weekly show 👉 https://gcn.eu/UploaderDE Become a channel member and get lots of benefits and bonus content: https://gcn.eu/JoinGCNaufDeutsch Do you have a question?
