Gravel Bike or Road Bike? I Did the Experiment So You Don't Have To | PAS Stage 3 Yumezi Grit

The Zwift community has been debating gravel vs road bike for Yumezi Grit since the route launched. Solo speed tests say gravel is marginally faster... but that doesn't account for pack dynamics, drafting, or bike upgrade levels. So I raced it twice. Once on a gravel bike (Stage 0, unupgraded). Once on a fully upgraded road bike. Same course, same legs. Very different results. Gravel bike: 42nd/71 (predicted 17th) Road bike: 23rd/46 (predicted 11th) Here's exactly what happened on each lap, where each bike won and lost, and what I think the real answer is. 🔗 Zwift Insider bike choice breakdown: https://zwiftinsider.com/yumezi-grit-... 🏁 PAS Racing Series: https://zwiftinsider.com/pas-racing/ 🔴 Watch these live on Twitch: [your link] ⏱️ Chapters: 0:00 – The debate 0:45 – Route & context 2:00 – Race 1: Gravel bike 5:30 – Race 2: Road bike 8:30 – The verdict 9:30 – What I'd do differently #Zwift #ZwiftRacing #PASRacing #YumeziGrit #GravelBike #TomDrops #IndoorCycling #CatC
