When your a roadie you always find the money somewhere 😂. I sold my SL7 frame set about 4 weeks ago when all the more convincing rumours started. I Should pick up my frame sometime next week and maybe even get a custom paint job like my SL7 Gotta love new bike day 😁
In this case...it looks like it. Other bike brands have open spacers - in two parts or just open on one end and flexible enough to open and remove from around the steerer tube, so you just need to loosen the handlebar and "open" the spacer and remove it.
@@GeorgeD1Impossible, that's not how Specialized designed their spacers for the Tarmac SL7 and Venge V3. The spacers can definitely split open to allow cockpit height changes without recabling the entire bike. I see the split line in the front of the spacers. They're not that stupid to not design it that way.
the back is similar to the SL6, so the maximum design for better performance is the SL6 model, it's proven that it often wins stages, in my opinion the SL8 frame is a combination of the SL8 frame and the Venge headtube
@@mikicastanIt will, but with the small bearings in most BSA-threaded BBs for 30 mm spindles, it's not ideal, unless that BB is a Hambini, which uses 6806 bearings, which are relatively oversized compared to its competition.
You route the hydraulic hose, press down the handlebar fully, pull out the hose as far as it will go and then rotate the handlebar to get the tolerance to allow for free rotation of the handlebar. Then you mount the shifters roughly in place and check how much more hose you need - either insert it fully and check how much it goes into the shifter and account for that, or just...when you've done it a couple of times, there's visually a certain...curve...in the molding on the outside of the shifter which corresponds to where the hose bottoms out (it's not "official", but it's there).Then mark and cut.
Would ❤ 2 build up an SL8 2 my own Specs . Using my 1st Generation of the Roval Rapide CLX Aero Wheelsets 51/60 Clinchers. 1400 grams . A 54 cm bike would end up around 6.6 kilos using Time Xpro 15 Pedals.
One of the most soothing videos I've ever seen. Love that this SL8 was set up with tubes and not tubeless too.
What a GREAT video… so engaging and the choice of music too…. Love the display “box!”
Thank you so much!
Absolutely stunning to see your passionate work. And the result.
Thank you very much!
All that top tech and you put prehistoric butyl tubes on it.
Awesome, always fun to watch a bike being built. I’ll look the other way on tubes being used because the rest was cool.
Thanks!
Yes please.
now i understand why it cost so much to get a bike serviced from a mechanic. this looks so complicated and sophisticated
Amazing video, truly admiring to see the skill that goes into this.
Thank you very much!
Strong hands !!
素人が2つだけ言わせてもらうと１．トルクレンチは1回以上クリックすると過大にトルクがかかって危険です。1回だけです。２．shimanoのcrankは左サイドのプラスチックの増す締めボルトはきつく締めるとCrankが回らなくなります。強く締めないようにプラスチックでできているのです。
my choice will always be the Tarmac ❤
❤🎉Nice Elegant white road bike🚴 SL8…Light weight disc brake bike
We agree!
Amazing bike 🤯🤯
Funny how youre working on this bike with mostly just a multitool, great build!
Nicely done ash 👍 loving these style of videos
Glad you like them!
Great build!
Thanks!
Amazing work, amazing bike
Thanks a lot!
Awesome :)
A bike build video uploaded in 4k literally the day after the bike launch... I don't like the sl8, but you guys are insane...
kindly, include a weighing video of that bike. t.y
People already got sl8 in retail? Nice bike build btw! Can't wait to upgrade my sl7 to a sworks sl8
Yes, we have the SL8 in stock and ready to go!
“Upgrade”
Where do you get the money?
When your a roadie you always find the money somewhere 😂.

Gotta love new bike day 😁
@@stfu6397how will I win my cat 4 races without a sniffer ?
So if you want to remove some spacers, you would have to bleed the brakes, cut the brake cable and re-fill the brake oil all over again?
That depends if he left the brake cables long enough. That's the new way with these bikes.
In this case...it looks like it. Other bike brands have open spacers - in two parts or just open on one end and flexible enough to open and remove from around the steerer tube, so you just need to loosen the handlebar and "open" the spacer and remove it.

what is front derailleur support?
Made by a 3D printer? or official?
it's nice.

Do you mean “combination of the SL6 frame”
Noice
Does the bike have the same t47 bb as the sl7?
Hi, it is a BSA threaded BB!
SL7 has BSA, not T47. SL8 also has BSA.
So 30 mm axle will not fit
@@mikicastanIt will, but with the small bearings in most BSA-threaded BBs for 30 mm spindles, it's not ideal, unless that BB is a Hambini, which uses 6806 bearings, which are relatively oversized compared to its competition.
why grease on saddle carbon rails?
Carbon paste
how did you determine hose length?
You route the hydraulic hose, press down the handlebar fully, pull out the hose as far as it will go and then rotate the handlebar to get the tolerance to allow for free rotation of the handlebar. Then you mount the shifters roughly in place and check how much more hose you need - either insert it fully and check how much it goes into the shifter and account for that, or just...when you've done it a couple of times, there's visually a certain...curve...in the molding on the outside of the shifter which corresponds to where the hose bottoms out (it's not "official", but it's there).Then mark and cut.
Lovely build & thank God it's not tubeless.
4:19 slam the stem!

>10k bike
>standard butyl tubes
🤔🤔🤔
Can i know what youre putting on the crankset at 8:41 , and what at 7:59 for the bottom bracket?
Its shimano bearing grease
Pure beaty.
The design between fork with head tube a bit strange
Building a sl8 with a multi tool lol
Amazing🤍
Thanks 🔥
That's one ugly bike gotta say
With SRAM AXS will be better 😊
