This video contains paid product placement from Cadex. Dreaming of buying upgrades for your bike is something we can all relate to, but today we’re going to see just how much of a difference these dream updates can make to your favourite old bike.
While we’d all like to be able to go out and buy a brand-new bike, it’s not something that everyone can afford. Upgrades on the other hand, can be a great way to breathe life back into an old trusty steed.
Our sponsors Cadex set us a challenge to see how much difference we could make to Jack’s 2011 Genesis Equilibrium, an excellent bike that after a decade of use is now looking a little tired and in need of some upgrades.
Do you recognise this Genesis Equilibrium? Yes, it's the same bike Jack rode in our 2019 Hill Climb Diaries series finale! Watch the video here → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzry44tm-fc
