Moots Cycles invited both GCN's Si and our very own Neil to revisit the question they raised last year at the Dolomiti Superbike in Italy. Gravel bike or Mountain Bike? The Gravel Vs MTB video is over on GCN, but we're stoked to bring you Neil's video diary of the pairs Icelandic adventure 🤘

In association with Moots Cycles

A big thanks to Icebike Adventures for making this kind of adventure possible - http://gmbn.eu/Icebike

A few days riding through the Icelandic highlands means seeing a lot of amazing sights! Navigating through the steam of thermal hot-springs, crossing freezing rivers and riding terrain varying from glacial snow and ice to palm sized volcanic pebbles... now this is an environment to test bikes! Gravel or Mountain Bike, which handles Iceland better?
