The new Giant Revolt gravel bike retains many of the characteristics I loved about the original (read: flexy post, Goldilocks geometry, wide model range) and adds a couple new features but not UDH compatibility. I took the bike to the five-day Oregon Trail Gravel Grinder stage race in the Cascade Mountains for a legit test of bike and body. Thanks to Wil Matthews for the thumbnail photo and good cheer. -- Gear I use for shooting (not sponsored!): Hover X1 Self-Flying Drone: https://amzn.to/3V7MUn5 DJI Mini 3 Drone: https://amzn.to/3wK4eVY GoPro Hero Black 11: https://amzn.to/3wK4eVY DJI Action Cam 4: https://amzn.to/3wK4eVY DJI Pocket Osmo 3: https://amzn.to/3wK4eVY Sony Alpha ZV-E10: https://amzn.to/3QUSqHf Sony Alpha a6300: https://amzn.to/3K7jFKK Sony E 50mm F1.8 OSS lens: https://amzn.to/3QNGh6L -- The Ride is supported in 2024 by: Castelli clothing: http://tinyurl.com/43k6pftp Perc Coffee: https://tinyurl.com/etzyekwr (save 15% with code 'ride15') Giro helmets: http://tinyurl.com/72svzzxp Silca maintenance: https://bit.ly/47xxvzj (save 10% with code 'theride') First Endurance nutrition: https://bit.ly/41SDgqq (save 20% with code 'THERIDE') Shimano shoes & glasses: http://tinyurl.com/ye274tep Feedback Sports stands & tools: https://bit.ly/3S9Dq8r -- 0:00 intro 1:36 Oregon Trail 4:20 logistics 6:43 camp rhythm 8:23 big race days 10:56 queen stage 15:19 Revolt & gear review 24:09 Coros Dura 27:20 summary
