Build Watching: A Reborn Baum Corretto
Просмотров 12 тыс.2 года назад
After seven great years riding his custom Above Category Baum Corretto, our client came to us looking for a refresh. But he wasn’t looking for a new bike. Instead, he wanted to give his well-loved road machine a facelift and, at the same time, reconfigure the frame to accept a mechanical groupset rather than the Campy EPS that we originally built the bike to accept. A suite of new components, w...

Picking the Perfect Gravel Wheels: Enve AR vs G Series
WELL DONE FOR NOT HAVING SHIMA(NO!) WHICH COMPLETELY RUINS THE BIKE LOOK! I BOUGHT A BIANCHI SPECIALISSIMA IN CUSTOM ORANGE WITH ABOVE WHICH WAS STRIPPED BARE FOR A NEW 12-SPEED CAMPAGNOLO SUPER RECORD EPS/WTO WHEELS, ETC! I AM JUST BUILDING UP A COLNAGO C64 DISC, WITH SUPER RECORD MECHANICAL, REPLACED BY A SUPER RECORD 12-SPEED DISC EPS/WTO WHEELS, ETC! I ALSO HAVE A VIRTUALLY NEW BIANCHI "PANTANI REPLICA" WITH CAMPAGNOLO RECORD! I ALSO HAVE ALL THE 1998 PANTANI KIT TO USE WITH IT, TOO!
I seen you artistry Again and Again
❤❤❤
Very cute emporium of cycle master technology.. I am appreciate the excellent work at cycle art work
Lovely video! What music did you have in the background? I ride a Pegoretti too, a rim brake Responsorium with Campagnolo. Congrats Brennan the new US Gravel Champ!
Awesome video! What frames do they make? 😅
A great workshop! Good skills, but when I drop big coin on a bike, I build it myself, and enjoy every minute of it. Cut and sand the steer tube so nice, and my OCD could not cope with that bar wrapping especially at the start. My Enve bars have the same width bar tape from the start, go to be perfect for those moments of hell on a big climb when that's all you focus on. Gorgeous bike, I have to visit the shop soon!
There is just so much to like about this video. Masterclass workmanship with work of art components on a beautifully made Australian frame.
Material, Titanium-carbon !???
What a weapon!!!!
1:04 I helped make that bridge structure thing. LoL Caltrans
Nice bike but I still prefer my carbon fiber one!
A beautiful handmade Italian frame with beautiful Italian componentry,it doesn’t get much better than that
Damn. That is pretty ❤
That’s a beautiful titanium road disc bike❤
I absolutely love Salifu’s Art work. Love this video.
PF cups in Ti frame get grease?
Love it! Looking forward to visit them this spring 🤩
You will have the best time!
@@abovecat can‘t wait - had a lovely chat with Cristina last year. So project for next year build in the pipeline 🙌🏽
September
I really like the colour scheme
With Sram Red AXS, it weighs 7.88 kg, 17.37 lbs.
Using that flashlight is genius! 😍😍 Thanks for the hack!! 👌👍
It's beautiful!
Very cool video! I think that paint scheme colour should be a standard for Pinarello (it looks so good)
We couldn't agree more!
❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥LOVE LOVE LOVE THE BUILD ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Masterpiece!!!❤❤
I would most certainly have the aurora plus the great divide disc with full internal cabling both in raw finish
Make me not want a "modern" bike.
Very nice. We must have the weight! Please….
Artwork 🚴♀️✨✨
Beautiful! It’s going to be a bugger if the owner decides they want a longer stem
That’s what bike fits are for!
@@abovecat People age and it's nice to be able to keep a great bike and change the set up to accommodate a changing body.
No22 can do a custom build. They will reimburse you up for to $300 USD for your bike fit.
Gorgeous bike! Awesome build 🤙
One of my favourite videos on you tube - must have watched it half a dozen times!
That means the world to us - we're so pleased you continue to enjoy it. Pegorettis are magical!
Their bike frames truly look like sculptures, pieces of art.
Our Sarto Experience in November 2022 was gorgeous and picking our bikes this spring in the facilities will remain an unforgettable and emotional moment for the rest of our life... I have 2 unique pieces and my wife 1 ... We can't imagine riding something else than a Sarto bike .... This is the first time my wife feels so confident and united with a bike... And about me : if only I had my Dinamica and my Lampo when I was racing ... Speed weapons ...
This sounds wonderful, Julien!
I had the opportunity to visit Sarto in summer 2022 and it was just amazing, an impressive and unforgettable experience! My Sarto Seta Plus was created from scratch, starting with a bikefitting, chosing the components and graphics. The bike itself is a real masterpiece, fatto a mano in Italia. The driving experience is sublime and the fact it is made 100% to measure means you feel united with the frame in any situation.
There's nothing quite like the custom process - congrats, it sounds like you had an amazing experience! It's Pete here who went and filmed this - I loved my trip. I'm writing a journal post which will have lots of pictures, and will hit their AC site soon. Enrico and his team felt like a family. A very special place.
why did you put tape on the bb shells?

"we spared no expense"
What scissors are those?
You have to ditch that shirt..
Good 👍 👍 👍
Given how incredibly shitty the roads look like you ride on, this must be an amazingly comfortable bike to ride.
❤❤❤
Show the complete bike, mate💯🤩
More of this please!
Love these videos AC. Please keep it up!
Dope!!!
Many build-up vids seen yet, but nobody is near as a good mechanic as your guy here! Keep up the good work!
Ciao! Another curious viewer with a question… what prep work you've been doing to the cranks/bearings? Why remove them? Adding some additional sealing?
Probably too much to mention!
