About rear brake hose. It's a good idea to put foam around the brake hose before routing it through down tube. Then we enjoy the silence when riding 😊 That should be mentioned in this tutorial 😉
@@Mozillarum hi, YOELEO R12 is fine, no new issues occurred except for those I described in my review. I recently completed the Winspace Agile build on Ultegra Di2, so I will start riding it. 😊
Thank you for the Vid. I just ordered a Elves Eglath frame, and will be doing my first di2 and disc brake build. I ordered the Ultegra, but I am sure the process will be the same. Will keep this for reference.🚲
Hmm I just received a complete R7170 groupset, and there doesn't seem to be pre-installed brake olive in the shifters. Removed the screw completely to be sure.
Please consider the extra cost of junction and cabling so you can connect the levers and update their firmware, which is most certainly needed. This is better done off the bike before installing the groupset. I have done it before installing my dura ace and now i should it again as a new firmware is available.
The ends of the hoses have a sort of plastic seal which is broken when you connect them to the hoods. I'd recommend a bleed anyway but it isn't required per se.
11:59 This bothers me in this video un multiple places and many others. The presenter has greased the locking nut and the tighten to 40 Nm. But, tightening torques are always specified for dry threads, not greased or oiled. Much of the tightening torque goes into overcoming the frictions in threads. Lubing the threads reduces the friction and therefore larger part of the torque goes into tensioning the bolt itself. The difference is not negligible, it can be up to 200% in tension (need a quote). For some bolts this is overtensionig them. The exception are bolts, that are always lubed, like oil drain plug bolts, or bolts immersed in oil. So, instruction should be clear whether this are dry torquing bolts or wet torquing bolts. I myself, have in the past made the mistake of lubing the bolts andthe applying the torque. But luckily those were the bolts with large margin of error like car rim bolts. But else where where things are pushed to the edge of elastic deformation, like conrod crank arm main bearing bolt or engine head bolts, such mistakes can be catastrophic. I don ot know how critical things are on bicycles, but it would be nice to be clear o that.

Great point!
Excellent video and tips! Just what a Di2 newbie needs. Thanks,
Good timing. I'm building a bike on Ultegra Di2 12spd. 😅
Hey, how's your YOELEO R12 going ? Are you switching to a new frame for your ultegra di2 build ? Thanks 😊

Also ordered an Eglath a month ago. Cannot wait.
Good luck!
A thing to mention:
The olive comes pre-placed inside the shifters. So if you're just swapping shifters, MAKE SURE TO TAKE IT OUT
About the brakes, I prefer the British setup because it's the same as motorbikes, which I am used to !
Me too! Back in my motorbike days. 👍🏽
Good job !! ✌
Those Brit’s has to be different with their brakes don’t they😂😂😂
Ever ridden a motorbike ? 😂. Front brake on right, rear brake on left.
Americans do too if they ride motorcycles
Considering the brits invented the bicycle one would say they are correct
The 105 calipers really aren't much heavier than ultegra and look nice in the black paint.
They are 100% the same. Only dura ace has a specific body.
@DonJeJeX the 11 spd dura r9100 were the same body from what I re all.
We need more videos !
Excellent presentation ❤

What large torque wrench do you use? That seems to be a fair price for a torque wrench that exceeds 5-10 nm
If I’m upgrading from 105 12 speed mechanical to ultegra Di2, do I need to change the hydraulic brakes or just the shifters?
How do you update the firmware?? Do you need the Bluetooth adapter??
Great! Your vids are the best- very informative tutorial here. How does the Vanyar ride compared to your Falath Evo? 😃
Does the bike come with " lane keep assist" ?.
No break bleeding required? You mention that there is mineral oil in the hoses, but doesn’t cutting them insert air into the system?
The ends of the hoses have a sort of plastic seal which is broken when you connect them to the hoods. I'd recommend a bleed anyway but it isn't required per se.
congrats on the build

You don't need to bleed the brakes?
Ah man I wish this was my allez haha
Drive on the wrong side of the road, put your brakes on the wrong side of your bars.. why do you have to do everything backwards? 🤪
It's pretty logical the left right shifters weigh the same they both do exactly the same thing.
Would've been easier if you went with SRAM...
How do I do it on a rim brake bike?
Two cables, three plugs on battery, but no explanation as to which connects to which?!!
bravooooo
customization = complication !
bla bla bla ..talk to much..next please ..I run..😂😂😂
