I don't understand the hate.. this person here did a great job putting this video to help fellow cyclist. It's the knowledge plus the time and effort into making the video. But the majority of us love it so keep up the good work !!
What hate? You make this video look bad. I don't see hate anywhere
Where is the hate you talking about?
Braze-on or brazen? 😄
please never delete this video. I watch this about every 6 months. Best explanation of front derailleur setup for shimano 8000 series!!
I just suggested this video to my father after trying other videos on the installation of this front derailleur, and he replied:
"I just watched it and thought it was absolutely fabulous.
You're right he is so clear and explains things perfectly. I couldn't wish for a more perfect video. I'll watch it a lot of times before doing the installation."
Danny I know you get some criticism for not having shortcut videos, but some of us absolutely prefer the thoroughness and of not leaving anything out. We appreciate the exact way you do your videos, good work.
Hi, This is an excellent guide for new bike builders or even for mechanics. I have been building road bikes ever since 1976, and all of the manufactures are upgrading and improving their components every two or three years. Your step by step approach has been very helpful in regards to the setup of the last and newest mechanical shifting system. I will recommend your channel to my fellow biker friends. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge with the world.
This is one of those CZcams gems! Seems like pretty niche knowledge but is really helpful! Please never delete!
Very clear, answers all my questions. Just finished installing my Shimano 105 R7000 front derailleur. Much more complicated compared to earliest versions of Shimano groups' front derailleurs, and it was easy due to this excellent video. Thanks.
Thanks for the video!!!
it shows clearly how to make it PROPERLY!
I bought Trek Madone 2019 last year. nothing of this was done as you show it.
I have a hole in my frame because of the bicycle MECHANIC in Rutland Cycling in Milton Keynes. He, obviously didn't use the little plate you showed us!
The same think about the brakes... they were not adjusted and i needed to find it out myself.
I hope there are more people like you in the cycling shops, who will do their job with pleasure!
Thanks again!
Having just bought this group set to install myself this is probably the most informative derailleur adjustment video I've ever seen thank you so much
Definitvely the best tutorial video for installation and adjustment of this kind of FD. Not only because of the explanations on the FD itself, but also for the explanations on trim positions when pushing the shifters. For mtb users, there is no difference between shifting and triming so a tutorial without these clarifications is confusing for new road bike riders. So, well done!
Thank you. This is the first video that explains _clearly_ the install & setup of this new generation of FDs. I have been struggling with a GRX 810 FD on a new build. Shimano's tech docs are about as clear as mud.
Perfect! Fast, easy, and thorough. I missed the stabilizer screw on the 105
i just replaced with an Ultegra r8000 so this was enlightening and now I have a spare!
Thanks for sharing! The new mech design had me scratching my head. Your step-by-step instructions got me sorted.
Thank you so much for doing this video! I just worked out all the issues I was having with my front Derailleur. I look forward to your future videos.
You are a legend. The best install and tuning around. Covered every detail and made my install and tune very easy. Great work.
you probably dont care at all but does anybody know of a method to log back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb lost my account password. I love any tips you can offer me!
@Camden Jaxen Instablaster =)
@James Jamari I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@James Jamari it worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my account !
@Camden Jaxen You are welcome =)
I Have watched your video time and time again . It is absolutely great how you take your time to explain the full setup of the R8000 front derailleur. I uses your video as a reference point to start and finish any bike i am working on. Thank you for a excellent workshop reference. Gerald - Wales UK
That's a great video! I wish I had watched it BEFORE I installed my front derailleur! Close ups are excellent! Thank you for taking the time to document and explain in such a concise way ; )
Very helpful man. Adjusting my front derailleur this morning with this after routing cables which took me an hour going through aero bars. Nice work!
This is cool! I like the way how you explains the steps and why we do it. This is the best teaching lesson I have ever seen on CZcams.
best video on youtube about the subject, shows perfectly how to really adjust and fine tune properly! thank you Sir!
Awesome video. Thanks a lot. Finally someone who explains ALL the steps required for installation and adjusting. Made it a breeze to setup mine.
Thank you so much for making this video. My first bike build and I'm stuck on the front derailleur. This covered everything. Thanks again!
Brilliant! I spent a ton of time on my new GRX derailleur today but you’ve cleared up so much!
This is by far the best video for installation and adjustment of the FD-R8000 if ever seen. VERY GOOD JOB MAN - you earn my subscribe!
Excellent video. I don’t often mess with front derailleurs anymore but was having issues with a GRX I put on. Set up has changed a lot since I had touched one. I was making a mistake on the limit adjustments and I wasn’t setting them in the trim position in the big ring. Works perfect now.
This is a fabulous video - all the steps explained, all the difficult bits pointed out, it's not rushed and it's very clear. Well done! A very professional and useful piece of work :-)
Man, you are right on with this tutorial. Thank you so much! I might add that in my own experience, I thought I had my derailleur straight, but I had to tweak it very slightly with the tension screw to get the best performance. I'm sure it was a lack of experience issue on my part. Now it is smooth as butter thanks to you!
I have struggled for 2 days trying to get this to work. Now I have seen your video powwww everything is perfect. Thanks for such a great video
This is an incredible tutorial. I was getting lost in the manual. I can't thank you enough!
Thanks for this exceptional tutorial video. I am building my first bike, a 2020 RLT9 RDO. I have not gotten to the front derailleur yet, but now I am prepared. Seems quite simple.
Wow, this is super helpful!!! Thank you so much, and yes, this is different, I have the FD-R8000 PDF manual from Shimano tech, this fills in a lot of the gaps, that cable routing after the clamp under the cap and through the chanel for one, that's completely new to me!
just switched from a 20 year old ultegra to a two year old one and learned that i have a trim function now! thanks for that ;) saved my day.
Excellent video. Thanks for showing the unusual routing of the GRX mech and what the little plate is for. Very very helpful.
Thanks for posting this, you really helped me out. Our bike shops have limited hours and a back log. With this video I was able to dial my setup and save some money!
Thank You for taking the time to make the video. Very helpful.
Really good tutorial. I was struggling with the adjustment but this video showed me the trick how to do it perfect. Thank you!!!
Thanks for the clear and precise set up details! Much better than the actual shimano instructions that came with the front mech! Bravo!
I watch several of the others, this one actually much easier to understand, great job thanks
Thank you so much, finally a clean, proper explanation! Helped me to finally fix the chainrubbing on the front! Legend!! 🙌
Thank you for a very helpful video. Instructions are clear and easy to follow. Took the bike out for a ride today after a new installation and everything worked perfectly.
Had a good laugh at your torch moment 😁
Well done man! I was just in trouble with this component.Great. Thank you.
By far best installation guide, explanation and video for shimano derailleur
Great vid! You earned a sub. Simple and easy explanation that anyone can understand. Excellent camera angles. Thanks!
I found this in the box with my bike (the bike was already assembled) and had not idea what it was for! Thanks for making this video.
Excellent super clear description of installing R8000, thank you 🙏🏻
Your great instructions even helped me adjust my ever-rubbing Di2 FD-8050 👍
Best tutorial I’ve found so far! Thanks!
Quite a surprise! I could not find this info from any other source. Thank you for providing this valuable and important information.
Thank you sir! I was struggling to make it right. You helped me with your CZcams video. God bless you! Keep it up.
Especially helpfull are the close ups of the small bits and pieces such as the stabilizing screw and where the chain should rub (or rather not rub). Great that you take the effort to find a good viewing angle which sometimes cannot even be achieved by eye... ;-) so that we know what we are doing and should aim for. Thanks!
Your adjustment directions were perfect, thank you very much.
Really useful as there was no explanation in the sheet that came with the derailleur on what the plate was for hence why I searched for this, thanks.
Hey man, this is a great vid, thanks for taking the time to do it.
What I would like to see your version of is setting up the gears for an ENTRY LEVEL mountain bike, you know, something with 3 chainrings and 7,8 or 9 cogs in the back. I've seen a bunch of other ones but I like the way you explain things.
Thanks!
Finally a well recorded instruction video. Thank you!
Thank you!!! Saved my install. Keep up the content! Helped me on my GRX FD.
This was absolutely perfect. Fantastic video, clear, well produced, easy to see. A+
Great video! It was pretty easy to install my new front derailleur by following your video. Thanks
Good job. It is very clear and good step by step process. It is very useful to me. Thank you so much!!
Ive been using my FD for 2 yrs plus already didnt realise there was a stabilising screw!! It shifts much easier now lol thanks bud
Perfect and detailed tutorial, helpful for the latest 105 !
great explanation of how to install Shimano front derailleur thank you so much, it really help a lot.
Great tutorial. I just bought the shimano grx and I haven't got an idea what this plate is for. Many thanks
Thank you for mentioning the plate! I didn't know if I still needed to use it as it hits the hanger for me too.
Great video. Very clear explanation. Shimano should hire you!
great video, only video I found explaining step by step, thank you
Thank you so much, was able to perfect my front derailleur adjustment thanks to you. Great video and we'll explained!!
Excellent. Best bike tutorial I've seen yet.
First time viewer. Got exactly what I needed. Well done - very clear. If only my bike was as clean as yours! Subscribed, and I'll be coming back...
Just got a new bike with Grx 800 and my front derailleur started hitting my crank. I didn't install it so this video helped in the fine tuning as I had no idea what all the new screws and lines meant. I could of let the shop deal with it but then I wouldn't learn and more money in my pocket.
very good tutorial m8! U went into every little detail perfectly ! Nice man!
Thank you so much. Looks the same for a GRX FD. Wow a lot of changes from older models!!
Thanks for this video, it helped me adjust my shimano GRX groupset. I was very familiar with the old system for front derailleurs. Unfortunately I no longer had the stickers on my bike. But a coin was enough to adjust the height of the chainring and I understood the purpose of the trim position. 😊
Excellent video, thanks! The one thing that confused me was what position the shifter should be in when the cable is attached/tightened. Eventually I figured out it should be in the position to make the cable the longest, for the small chain ring.
Simply the best! I was looking for it, thank you! 🙏🏼
Thanks so much! Had no idea about the metal plate, so this was very useful!
Guys, this is the tutorial you want. I was pulling my hair out until I watched this. Well done.
This is the best, clear and of course good lighting.
simply best guide I found, huge thanks!!!
Thanks for your wonderful video. It really helped me to install my new FD.
Thanks for the info, as my LBS didn't have this set up correctly on my new bike.
Great video using it to setup my new GRX mech today. FYI for the clamp on adapter part number SM-AD91-MS 31.8/28.6 it has a small built in welded nub, where the stabilizing screw presses against when its turned outwards, so no need for the small piece of metal, and in fact the small piece of metal wouldn't physically fit due to this little built in nub :)
Thanks for the clear explanation, this really helped me out
Very good 👍 tutorial video I can now fit my derailleur correctly 😀 cheers mate.
Great one! saved me some pain when building new bike. I was wondering why is the derailleur completely ignoring my ST up-shifts (but down-shift was there). Appear it wasn't the derailleur itself, but somebody who sold me the ST-s R8000 messed with the shifting cable or just put it through, without noticing which gear is the lever on. Got them pretty much brand new, but without the original paper box (plastic bags and manuals only). Result - completely screwed operation when playing with the FD. Thanks again... saved me some head ache...
Excellent and so clearly demonstrated! I think this is identical for GRX-FD RX810 front derailleur. So confusing if you expect this to be like all previous "normal" front derailleurs!! You could broaden your viewing if you include more derailleurs.
Thank you. Very clear, very clear, even for non-English speakers.
Great video man, super clear and helpful
Well done my friend...Straight to the point...Amazing explanation..Keep up the good work and show more videos like this!!!! :D
THANK YOU for covering that random adhesive plate which I was very curious about when installing my 105 R7K (the way it installs is identical to this Ultegra, btw). Now to make that final trim adjustment before I ride. Also good to know about that canted "heel" in on braze on mechs like this, as opposed to being parallel flat to the big ring. Really good tips!
I can also confirm that thus far, the 105 R7K works on a mid 90s XT flat bar left shifter! My mutant vintage roadie bike is set.
works great! did my r8000 groupset yesterday. thanks 👌👌😎
Clean Tutorial. Best so Far!
thanks for this, helped with the 2 extra screws on the GRX FD
Awesome video ! Thanks mate. Got me setup and rolling.
Excellent, detailed how-to. Thank you!
Great video and tutorial... Incredibly helpful. Thank you!
thanks brother for the tips, ultegra R8000 is well explained
Great video, no instructions for my Ultegera very useful clip I did not no about the piece of metal tab just found it on my floor must have dropped it when unpacking.
Thorough! and very well explained! Thank you!!!
The lastest version R7000 105 is now similar to Ultegra. Just did a build myself.
