When tightening up a threaded bottom bracket try putting a plastic bag between the splines and the tool. It helps them engage a bit more tightly, and if you do slip it can help protect your paintwork
Does it really matter so long as every manufacturer does the same so that you’re comparing like for like? It actually makes sense not to include pedals since people all use different pedal systems
@@XX-is7ps totally true. Everyone is using different pedals and bottle cage/ cages. Also a company who sells their bike without pedals and bottle cages only can mess the weight without these parts
Dude, I enjoyed this infinitely more than the Dream Build vids. No shade to them, but I really enjoy your commentary and it's interesting to hear the thoughts and calculations behind this build. Great work, man! Enjoy the rides to come with this beaut!
I too am a big fan of the dream build videos, but at the same time I always wish they told me more about the builds rather than just shallow angles and slow jamz. Glad you enjoyed this though, cheers! :)
Hey Brother, I love your attention to detail. I checked your channel everyday looking out for this video. Keep it up, your content is a diamond in the world of cycling!
Strangely enough I enjoyed watching this with my coffee. The feeling of building yourself is you KNOW how it went together with loving emotional care. And that, is satisfying.
I would never claim weight doesn't matter in a hilly part of the world such as yours. For me though, a light bike is only nice when carrying it up the stairs. :)
This is honestly the best bike build video I've watched. Mostly for the reasons others have mentioned - the descriptions of the components and procedures, with just enough detail to be intersting, but not so much to make it boring. Congrats on the new bike. It looks amazing... and that weight - WOW!
If anyone was embarking on a bike build I would highly recommend that they watch you. Your attention to detail and listing of tools and parts... blows my mind.
I absolutely love your videos; was waiting for this. You Swedes understand Canadian winters so you know I am drilling over this bike as even skiing is shut down. Beautiful build, can't wait to hear your ride impressions. Thank you.
Wicked bike mate, congrats. Thanks for the video, learned a thing or two there for sure. I love how your make fun of yourself, with the little mishaps here and there, and humbly show us that you are human like all of us ❤️
Slippery Saddle: I have a "Selle Italia SLR Superflow S3", which i found way to slippery. I used some "Profile Design Aerobar Wrap Tape - black", its working great, no more slipping around. Eventualy/might be a bit harsh on the bib shorts in the long run... ´ll see.
You clearly haven't met the nuns I have... or know the joke about the two nuns cycling over cobbles. ;-) (Never heard that saying before - thank you for posting!)
Congrats to this awesome build. As you mentioned yourself, you have build it with your own hands and effort. So any top of the shelf superbike ever doesn't come close to your bike. The build process itself was a pleasure to watch. I love how calm (at least in the final cut 😉 ) you work on your bikes.
so appreciated! Ive been looking for info on 85.5 vs 86 and all the compatibility issues that one might expect even contacting manufacturers, and still being confused great vid super informative.
The shimano hose cutting tool can be adjusted when it slips. A flat head screw driver fits somewhere on the tool to adjust the fit. As you can also read in the manual
The 85.5 width was made for automated tooling at the factory. So the trek/praxis cups have a deeper tool fitting. Less chance of slipping off like in your video
Beautiful, gorgeous video. Amazing job as a host. Production value is just *chef's kiss* I really can't compliment you enough on your channel. Going out for a ride, got me excited
Great build video. Your detailed explanations are excellent. Your video can really help others to avoid or overcome similar issues that they may encounter.
Without pedals and cages, PR at it's finest ;) (Don't get me wrong, the Atheos is the lightest disc frame set on the market, no question about that, even the bigger sizes is amazingly light)
I also recommend the FidLock magnetic bottlecages. Very reliable, a bit more minimalist, compatible with a wide variety of bottles or alternative accessories.
Those Shimano quick links are a lot tougher to install than other brands like KMC. I ended up buying pliers which could both remove and install quick links.
Awesome video! that Shimano tool is my personal favorite at the shop. BTW, there is a bolt that takes a flat head screw driver on the end of the tool that you can tighten to increase the clamping force on the hose! So when some oil inevitably gets on it, the hose doesn't start sliding backwards. Love your thinking with the carbon paste tho.
That was the best video I’ve seen on UA-cam for a disc brake installation. Some great tips and make it look far less daunting, should I ever consider moving over to the dark side 😉
Been waiting for this video since you released the video about the frame! Finally! 12:36 I'd get a direct mount hanger. Usually it saves a few grams, shifts even better and most importantly looks cleaner.
Awesome build! As a side note: for robust, grippy and thicker handlebar tape, I've really come to like the Specialized Roubaix bar tape. Seems quite similar to the Pro Sport Control you are using.
I'm building a Trek Checkpoint SL right now with that same metallic green color you've got on here. Won't be as light, since it's a gravel frame with a storage door in the downtube, but anything under 20lbs will be a success for me I think. It should be attainable.
Awesome build! Nice paint! Love the multi-color. 🤩 Bike looks SWEET. There is nothing like building it yourself. Perfect connection between rider and bike. Paying attention to every tick, click, and gram 😉 Though I almost shed a tear when the BB tool slipped, that’s is my biggest fear. 😢 But where there is a ding, there is a future upgrade waiting to happen.
OMG, i ordert the same Bike in the same color in December. I build it with Sram AXS 1x. My hope for it is to go sub 6,8kg ride ready. But your build is insane. The crank, the bar, the saddle, the wheels........ nice to see how its done right! I am exited, mine should be delivered in 2 weeks.
Big Respect!! One of your best vids yet. Great balance between tech and tips. For me, the trickiest bits we're rear brake bleeding and lever reach adjustment. For some reason, one kept one screwing the other. BTW, I spent the cash a few years back and got that Shimano tool - a brilliant tool and worth every penny. Follow the mantra: 'right tool for right job'. Superb choice of bike and components. A lightweight bike does feel different. But like you said - STFU😂 - just get out there and enjoy it. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👍👏👏👏
Well, you didn't outdo yourself in the intro (vs. the frame reveal intro), but the actual weight reveal was VERY nicely done. I hope you enjoy riding this as much as I enjoyed watching you build it - and much more! FWIW, I quite like the "frosted" effect of the chain protector.
30:35 Thank you for saying that! I hate when people weigh their bikes without pedals, bottle cages, or even bar tape. Necessities need to be included in the weight!
Absolute credit to you attention2detail absolute flawless great video lovely bike the 33 minutes I absolutely loved love the the videos and I have learnt a lot since I started following you
Thanks for sharing this, I know you put a lot of work in making and editing this video. Thanks also for sharing some of the "mistakes" , because I have made exactly the same "mistakes" as you did in the vid. The bike looks amazing , and congrats on the sub 6.4 kg weight, was not expecting that !

What is the music at the beginning of the video please? Thank you

This is God level advice.
This comment is a good reason to take a look at the comments! Thanks!
will try it out! thanks a lot!
I did mine with a peace of cloth and a pipe wrench.. Does that also count as good practice?
Ahhhh. Now I can relax. Everything is back to how it should be.
Beeeeaaaaauuuutiful
Couldn't agree more that every bike SHOULD be weighed with pedals & bottle cages in them. Thanks for the great vid!
every bike should be weighed including the rider
Does it really matter so long as every manufacturer does the same so that you’re comparing like for like? It actually makes sense not to include pedals since people all use different pedal systems
Lol, weight weenies
@@XX-is7ps totally true. Everyone is using different pedals and bottle cage/ cages. Also a company who sells their bike without pedals and bottle cages only can mess the weight without these parts
Yeah, what’s with all the secrets around bike weights!!!!!

True!!! Was thinking the same. 33 minute video and I didn't even skip a bit. Unlike the other build vids I just put on 1.5x speed.
@@ridesofjapan I can´t agree more. Your details are helpful and better than shallow angles and slow jamz ;)
Woah woah there's space for both build types in this world!
Hey Brother, I love your attention to detail. I checked your channel everyday looking out for this video. Keep it up, your content is a diamond in the world of cycling!
Only January and it's Christmas time again! Thanks for the great content!
Strangely enough I enjoyed watching this with my coffee. The feeling of building yourself is you KNOW how it went together with loving emotional care.
And that, is satisfying.
It is very rare to a see a correct a bar wrapping on youtube (including the popular dream builds). Great content!
I would never claim weight doesn't matter in a hilly part of the world such as yours. For me though, a light bike is only nice when carrying it up the stairs. :)
Yeah all the racing is do is mostly on flat roads or at most a kermesse or rolling terrain. So I don’t mind a bike been 8kg if it’s cheaper and aero

This is the best tutorial for bike assembly that I have ever seen! Thank you!
I love the narrative of your videos mate, never change
Superb paint job. Enjoy the new bike. Totally agree with you, weight matter.
Working on emondas for new builds I’ve learned to always put painters tape around there until it’s torqued to prevent marks
I liked the bits where things didn't go as planned, yet you still showed them. Unlike other dream builds that only show the smooth part installations
Thank you for going back and redoing the flats of the bar. And I'm sure you'll appreciate it later too!
Respect for any cyclist that can do this. Amazing job! Fellow Japan cyclist
Definitely worth the wait for that video. Love the colour on the frame. Commentary is great too. Thanks ROJ, yet again you have delivered.
Me and my dad watched this before buying my new emonda, thanks for the amazing video!!!
Enjoy you new steed👍

oh man i have watched this 10 times already and i couldnt stop myself watching this again
As much as I'm a full-on Domane fan, this bike is a thing of beauty. Clean as a nun. Congratulations! Ride safe ;)

Bookmarked because there're some neat tips which can come in handy sooner or later. Great video.
Holy top shelf build, batman! Really enjoyed your process.
Style, quality,class, great content and I,m liking your commentary. 👍
Beautifully done and the visible weave of the bars, cranks and wheelset is just icing on the 6.345kg cake.
What a great ride! I'm happy for you my friend.
so appreciated! Ive been looking for info on 85.5 vs 86 and all the compatibility issues that one might expect even contacting manufacturers, and still being confused great vid super informative.
Let’s not pretend, WEIGHT MATTERS!
Aero is marketing 😜
She is really pretty. Your VDOs are very helpful and entertaining at the same time. Thank you for sharing.
Yes!! The wait is over😂🚴🍾!!
Beautiful build, love the 1x set up.
I still laugh about the name of that scale every time I see it. Wondering whether it's a coincidence or not.
And what a gorgeous bike.
So many people have said so many beautiful words on my behalf. Nice bike.

Going out for a ride, got me excited
Pro tip: There is a preload adjuster for the TL-BH62 brake hose tool so the hose wont slip :)
Greetings from Sweden
So many drool-worthy parts. This is a very well-curated build. Hot damn!
Congrats on your new bike! Very nice build! And light bikes do make a difference when climbing. As always, a nice video presentation. Enjoy1
That frame colour is great
This build is superb, impressive and straight up awesome 👌
Enjoy the rides ahead of you and stay safe!
Another fantastic video. These just get better and better. Well done.
Cheers mate!
Congrats on the new ride! And thanks for showing the mistakes along the way, even as minor as they were. Its how we all learn.
Nice bike! Same weight as my non aero, non integrated, rim brake build!
Great build video. Your detailed explanations are excellent. Your video can really help others to avoid or overcome similar issues that they may encounter.
This is the most helpful video I have ever seen - thank you so much!
Detail is everything. I love your vids.
Super nice bike, extreamly exotic components, it’s amazing how an “stock” aethos founders edition size 56 weight’s only 5.9 kg
Without pedals and cages, PR at it's finest ;)
(Don't get me wrong, the Atheos is the lightest disc frame set on the market, no question about that, even the bigger sizes is amazingly light)
this is my inspiration colorway when i got this bike of mine... (although not a TREK because of the price...)
always swing toward yourself with that torque wrench! gives you more control!
also you can get quick release ends for hydro brakes & DI2 if u want to b able to remove bars easily!
I also recommend the FidLock magnetic bottlecages. Very reliable, a bit more minimalist, compatible with a wide variety of bottles or alternative accessories.
Agreed, I use them when I have a frame bag on my Open, but on this bike need something a bit more exotic ;)
Those Shimano quick links are a lot tougher to install than other brands like KMC. I ended up buying pliers which could both remove and install quick links.
Wolftooth components has some great quick link pliers.
The super B tool?
@@imperialspy3457 Yes, that's the one. I forgot what brand it was. Their 2 in 1 link pliers are awesome.
Feeling happy like it's my own bike! Glad for you and wish more more climbs !
Awesome video! that Shimano tool is my personal favorite at the shop. BTW, there is a bolt that takes a flat head screw driver on the end of the tool that you can tighten to increase the clamping force on the hose!

That was the best video I’ve seen on UA-cam for a disc brake installation. Some great tips and make it look far less daunting, should I ever consider moving over to the dark side 😉
I’d also like to think you had that music playing for real whilst building it up 👍🏻
All kinds of tunes, slightly more aggressive though, and a few podcasts in there :)
Sweet build. I love your organization and detali oriented work. Cheers
Sweet ride. Emonda SLR FTW any time
no such thing as a too long video when its quality content
Super nice build. Take a look at the Connex chain link. Its made to be installed by hand, you can use it as often as you like to open a chain etc.
Wonderful bike, wonderful set-up video! It was worth the wait. Thank you.
Use the plastic wrapper from packaging for the BB between tool and BB when installing to prevent marking from tool :-)
33 minutes passed like 5... damn I love it.
What an incredible build. Congratulations!!
Skip this no chance... this bike is pure 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Really nice, love that front end.... Seat clamp half way up the post is a shame. Fantastic colour, looking forward to seeing it on the road👍
I’ve made the same mistake cutting my chains many times. I’m using KMC SL chains now, I really like them.
Congrats on a great build!! Enjoy the ride!!
Been waiting for this video since you released the video about the frame! Finally!
12:36 I'd get a direct mount hanger. Usually it saves a few grams, shifts even better and most importantly looks cleaner.
Did some googling. Was not able to find a DM hanger for the emonda.
@@404nobrakes I already have a direct mount hanger, stay tuned for that sub 6.3 video 😉
@@404nobrakes www.sigeyishop.com/product/trek-disc-brake-direct-mount-derailleur-hanger/
Plaickner Simon ah ok. For some reason wheelsmfg.com/derailleur-hanger-396.html lists the SLR with standard vs DM hangers separately.
Awesome build! As a side note: for robust, grippy and thicker handlebar tape, I've really come to like the Specialized Roubaix bar tape. Seems quite similar to the Pro Sport Control you are using.
Really enjoy this channel and this build video! Love the cap also, I need one. Keep up the great work man!

Nicely build! Right below 14lbs that is very nice.
Awesome build, really enjoyed the video.
I have found this and your open build videos very useful as my campag ekar mason takes shape - thank you.
20:26 For your next build, use strapping tape instead of electrical. The former can be removed without residue and is designed to not stretch.

Using a single layer of paper as a shim when installing barbs also works well
Congrats!!! Beautiful bike, and video!!!

I agree about the proprietary seatpost. I wish I could use a different post.
The paint is cool and all....but the metallic logo is **chef's kiss** fucking marvellous.
As is that jersey, looks like a capable piece of kit...
