The lever features 20mm of reach adjust, that still results in a powerful lever pull. The contact point also results in a 4mm difference in the...

Care to share your thoughts on Mavic's Infinity ID360 and Vision's in-house hub? I do understand a common complaint about Mavic is parts availability but never hear anything on the actual design and build quality.
Informative, and not a F C B S forced into the dialogue
Can we get name of that adapter or link?
Are you able to build dip track wheels for an indoor velodrome?
Brand new replacement bosh ebike motors range from £200 to £500. Tge motors are not to hard to fit, so happy days, problem solved. I cant see how this is writing off a £2k + bike?? I hate the way bike shops always jump to the ultra worst case when they haven't checked everything out.. 😡
What a level headed young man and an excellent post race discussion. Thanks Mapdec
👌👌excellent interview, great new young talent … hope he does well . Very humble …
You can clearly see that Paul is a professional bike mechanic, because he doesn't need a filter mask. It's the same as with professional welders - they don't need welding goggles and just look away. 😄
I don’t inhale 😂
Let me guess the brand; Scott.
What would be the ideal bike for this ? What wheels ? Clearly DISC brakes are a must !!!! Bianchi Specialissima ? Mavic 40 SLR wheels ?
It’s a good shout. Bit OTT. Weight is not as important as folk think. A 1:1 gear ratio, good tyres, a well prepped and safe bike. The hills are short but very steep.
@@Mapdec I am into the first 20 minutes of your video and cannot stop thinking here is a gap in the market for you since it is on your doorstep. To organise training for it at certain times of the year where people come from all over the country Saturday and do the ride on Sunday with you or someone from your organisation to see what it is that they are getting themselves into. I have done the UCI GranFondo Jordan in February and the psychological side is just as bad as the physical. You start off at the dead sea in 17 dry degrees and almost immediately climb to the most horrible windy rainy and cold (some said equivalent to -2) about 1800 meters in about 25-30 kilometers. Preparation is key
I'd have been riled up at the 850 pound price for a handlebar before it ever rattled even a second. LOL
What brand is your internal micrometer? Looking to get one to check my pressfit BBs
Oh I’m not sure. I picked it up a sort of car boot sale.
Because people don’t want to same price for bike tires as for a cheap car.
Good fun stuff. Nice antidote to all the over serious build videos out there...
It’s gotta be fun. 🤩
Beautiful, but would have loved to just look at the finished drivetrain. You didn't let us see it!
Who’s the bcw lad @ 41 secs 💪
Well done Henry 👍
Man the booty bot comments are ridiculous. How much material did you have to take off the other side with sanding to get it to align?
I didn’t measure. Just kept testing with the jig
Is that poor frame building QC? It looks dreadful
@@timoakley277its normal for aliexpress ...😜🤣🤣
Or you can get the MT7 Pro AC3 with 203mm rotors, front and rear as a set for £299.99. Much better brakes, loads more power and only £50 more.. I know what id be buying.
So much knowledge and care in that teardown and rebuild. Absolute bargain at that price, you're doing the cycling lords work, keep it up!
Can I send my bicycle to you for a service from the Netherlands? 😂 (Focus E-MTB THRON 2) There are not many bicycle makers who do this this way.
I’ve said this before but your cynical comments on other channels and bike brands is becoming all too predictable. Not sure I like it
Great seeing the build come together and getting out for your first rides! Best of luck in the frontier 300!
If everyone just bought a Gravel bike then the world would be a happier place. :)
Massive congrats to Henry!
What an excellent ride. Proper preparation show what can be achieved. Many wing it especially with nutrition but Henry really did nail it. Also what make is the saddle bag?
RESPECT Henry a truly inspiring effort!
I think I can build a bike. However, the expensive part is all the required tools you need
Go for it. It only gets tricky when things don’t fit as they should.
Awesome job, i could feel the chemistry♥️🤟
Thank you! 😄
solution is go buy a super expensive Time bike , the frameset costs the same as Giant defy Canyon, ready to roll. Buy a BMW / Range rover and Time bike, u be fine. I think David A makes great videos and is very considered in his opinions, his channel is targeted to broader rider set, not just specialists and more elite riders
Awesome video. Great bike build. It’s a beautiful bike. Pedal safe and enjoy your bike
this was class paul cant say ive seen another mechanic have the patience to show us someones learning process! nice one man, really helpful videos, keep them coming and keep going!
Glad you enjoyed it Dominic.
Great build. Enjoyed watching. Thank you.
i don't understand what broke at 21 minutes. is this a nail file? what is there to cut there?
I was just removing a little paint to fit the cable exit plug.
Time must have significant shares in your shop…
i like to call out obvious yet unspecified sponsorships but this clearly isn't one of these. he has been upfront and explained why he likes TIME so much and there are valid reasons
Sadly not. We just sell them. We sell them because we like them.
Is this frame available for delivery in the uk from you?
Not for delivery, but we can build one for you.
Really interested in this bike but can’t seem to find any bike shops that stock them near me. Do you know any look dealers near London or Kent?
@@freddiewalker3320 I don’t. But we have many clients from London that enjoy a trip to the Lake District.
Absolutely well done Vicki on building your bike and one with internal cable routing. Go girl 🚴♀️
SRAM Di2.
You would have thought Vik has learnt the lingo by now 🤷♂️
@@Mapdec She has more build experience than almost every cyclist I know!
Plot twist: Ultegra mechanical is already like this 😬
Anyone else getting flashbacks to the New Yankee Workshop episode where Norm teaches his producer how to make an Adirondack chair? No? Just me? Ok...
The only country in the World having two separate water taps for cold and hot water : ) What a inversion so practical!
The only? I think you haven't been to very many countries. That's been in the US since 1907. At least, if not longer.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Really a shamethat Zipp is not able to use durable bearings. As I have read similar comments elsewhere, it seems to be a widespread problem with Zipp wheels. Therefore I will ask my dealer before buying the next bike, whether it is possible to swap the wheelset. DTSwiss is my favorite.
This was done by Shimano GRX Di2 already. Maybe not quite as long, but it was the same design. It looks good, that's true, but the disadvantage is that it just makes the reach of the bike even longer. When I switched to GRX Di2 I had to shorten the stem by 1cm.
Great watch
🙏
Great video, but it would've been nice to add like a "best price to performance" in the end. I could buy 6,5 shimano bsa xtr bbs for the price of the chris king one. I'm not saying chris king is bad or something, but it's too expensive for some types of bikes.
Given the Sram revolutionized the body design for both large and small hands when it comes to control and braking, they need to revise the rubber hoods for better grip and control as you mentioned the hood material is not as good as shimano. Firmer rubber material and better textured grip on the underside of hoods suitable for all weather or wearing gloves.
Yeah, I think we are all waiting for Shimano to do their usual, copy and refine process. 2 more years maybe before the next Dura Ace.
Henry .. amazing bruv! Amount of money people spend on the kit to do Fred. Mate you really humble and super bloke. All the best wishes. Guys like you could, with that attitude, go all the way to the top of cycling. Hope you keep going and get some good contracts.
🙏
That's pressure reaming out a BB.... Measure twice cut once
I am so glad you made the Volvo vs bmw comparison. It told me everything I needed to know…
1:32 it’s totally near his fingers.
a good ad.
