Rob, put some thin anti draft door/window foam between the battery cover and frame to prevend ratteling of the battery and snugger fit. Eeron from pole adviced me this and works great!
...I think I've become a bike nerd. This vid was great, the overall presentation was very good, told a good story, no fluff, just a dude building an amazing ebike. I've been watching your vids for a while now, but this vid is the one that made me subscribe. You've come a long way, my friend. Keep up the good work, and thanks!
There are places in Europe (like here in Bavaria, fortunately) where you cannot go off-road everywhere with a motorbike. Whereas with a bicycle, there are no restrictions in woods and forests. Besides, you can't do DH with a motorbike like you can with this Bike.
Very nice to see you doing what I will do in a couple of weeks with the Pole ID Race Framset. I hope you had some good rides in the meantime.... And it's true, it really is a dream bike. ENJOY. Markus
This only having 86k views is absolutely criminal. Such a gorgeous bike, and a perfectly edited video with a great artisanal vibe. Man you really nailed this video so hard Rob. This is art, brother. Thank you so much for sharing it with us
You can do as many build videos as you want Rob. Great video, I agree with the guy below about the looks of the voima, but you can't deny its still one hell of a bike
You put that video together very well; had really good flow. Learned quite a bit watching you make that bike whole. Like your stem length and riser bars btw 👍
so satisfying to watch. I just ordered mine yesterday and now the wait begins.....these videos will fill the void. It should be noted that Pole's videos were great but your videos and reviews sealed the deal for me.
Probably the best video on the internet. Lol. I like your taste, Rob. Raw aluminum, no protection, no black pole decals. Just pure industrial looking bike. That's exactly how I would prefer it too. Some questions: First of all it looks like a K2, is it? What type of headset is that? It looks like a works components. Did you change the head angle a bit? Is the absence of black decals an option? I mean, are they stickers or factory painted? Thanks for posting. Best regards.
I work machining aluminium... And I had to say its a masterpiece Rob. Its a satisfaction see a proper asembly. Congrats to Pole, its impresive but too Much expensive
Awesome videography. Would love to see how the frame was machined - even the best multi axis CNC machines can't mill out the hollow shells of the frame components, so I suspect the complex tubes are machined in halves and then welded together.
Just watched the other video about how the pieces are made - fascinating, how the halves are bonded together than machined - I would have thought that bonding metals together without welding or even stir welding would not be strong enough.
Your shorts video just pop-up and made me want to know more about this bike. The craft is so amazing and profile on the body highlight its cnc character. 🤤
This Alu frame is absolutely Amazing. And the components too, great combination. I've been cycling for decades and since MTBs didn't exist yet, I appreciate carbon frames (one of my road bikes has it) but off-road and especially in DH, a frame like this is absolutely better. Then the fixing of the drive unit, it's really nice 👍
I have mine to It is amazing. Taking it to Ride Southern Spain in Sept but without battery as all uplifts. Got a 3d printed battery cover so I can take a baguette with me😊
Great piece of engineering. Not my cup of tea but I very much admire the engineering that's gone into producing this frame. For some reason I hate the bulky head and the overhang it has over the fork crown.
What a beautiful Bike!! I´ve heard about Pole since a few Month and i was totally overwhelmed!! So nice bikes and the CNC made is totaly crazy! I´m so sad that the company is bankrupt!! 😓😓
Pole's frame aesthetic is definitely not my style, but this bike turned out sexy as hell. Love the raw aluminium color and orange accents. And the video, although without any commentary, was a pleasure to watch. Nicely done!
@@Cezex absolutely not, but yesterday I was doing some strava emtb segments and saw your name on the segments on Krnica trail and earlier today saw this video and your name caught my attention. Mind-blowing the coincidence 😂🤣
There's something about Pole's geometry that I absolutely love, in a very similar way to Mondraker's Foxy and Superfoxy, maybe the top tube and down tube's angles. Stunning bike, I hope you have as much fun riding it as I did watching you build it
You are living the dream Rob. Such a beautiful, capable bike. Thanks for the build video.
An almost 10.000USD dream. 😑
Watched this 3 times and then went online and ordered a Vioma Enduro loaded up. Thanks ks for the great vids.
Love the way they attach the Bosch motor to the frame, no plates no problems!
Cheers from Finland (home of Pole), hope you will love the bike!
Rob, put some thin anti draft door/window foam between the battery cover and frame to prevend ratteling of the battery and snugger fit.
Eeron from pole adviced me this and works great!
To me, this is the most beautiful bike. The engineers and designers achieved perfection. Emtb's version of the '61 Jaguar E-Type
Costs the same as one nowadays 😅

Looks like it's mada by Pagani, kudos to Pole for designing a proper bit of kit !! Not jealous at all 😊
Thanks!
That's absolutely stunning. I know you have already done a review of the bike. But I'd love to see another with how the spec you have built this too
Another knockout build! What a bike! Jealous viewer over here! Also, this bike plus some Intend suspension seem like a match made in heaven
10:07 thanks for showing us what that was, I knew it had something hidden in it, figured it was wrenches. This bike is perfect man. Congrats
So much CNC. It's almost too shiny :D And finally some Hope breaks! Using the Tech4 on 2 bikes as well. Incredible brakes, performance and modulation!
This only having 86k views is absolutely criminal. Such a gorgeous bike, and a perfectly edited video with a great artisanal vibe. Man you really nailed this video so hard Rob. This is art, brother. Thank you so much for sharing it with us
Great build Rob! As a mechanical engineer, all those beautiful tool paths on the frame, are simply pleasing to the eye.
Now thats not just a bike its an absolute work or art . Never seen anything like it wow nice job
This may very well be the most dreamy of all dream builds.... well done 👏 the audio is so satisfying as well 😅
Hi Rob, what a beautiful combination of Pole, Hope and SRAM. Top job. I want to order a POLE too. Best regards from Germany.
You can do as many build videos as you want Rob. Great video, I agree with the guy below about the looks of the voima, but you can't deny its still one hell of a bike
Incredible video Rob. Worth the wait. Incredible bike. Review to come?
Looks awesome, I love how aggressive the frame geometry is.
I think I just went to bike Heaven. 😂. Now that is a nice ride!! WOW Can’t wait to some videos on this build. Encore Encore!
You put that video together very well; had really good flow. Learned quite a bit watching you make that bike whole. Like your stem length and riser bars btw 👍
Well done video! Didn't see a building video for a while ....liked that one
so satisfying to watch. I just ordered mine yesterday and now the wait begins.....these videos will fill the void. It should be noted that Pole's videos were great but your videos and reviews sealed the deal for me.
Wow Rob, that's true art. Makes you just want to place in your house and just look at it all day!
That was sooooo enjoyable to watch! A work of art!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Soooooooo good! Best e-bike so far
That pole is a thing of beauty.

This Video is pure poetry 👌🏻
Awesome job rob. Thats an amazing looking bike.

Congrats to Pole, its impresive but too Much expensive
That's really true of all mountain bikes when you compare them to dirt bikes or motorcycles, tbh
Makes we wanna build a bike now ... any bike really. This one looks amazing of course!
Great choice of colors. A beautiful bike!
Awesome videography.

This was an awesome thing to watch! 👌🏻

Bike to dream of ❤thanks for showing us
What a calming video to watch
Sweet !!! Wow they are high rise bars .
This is like watching John Wick movies! No words, just action :-) I think I need another cup of coffee. This is like art.
wow, that's just nuts ! (and bolts)
well done man! the sram transmission really goes well with the raw frame! epic build
great choice. If ever I'd go for an ebike again, it might just be the Pole too.
Nice build Rob, and great video
Dude that was super satisfying 😊
This is some serious ASMR right here😅. Love the bike Rob ! Been missing your videos !!!
Very nice…. I so much dig this bike, when I’m done destroying my Cube the order will be placed.

Great build, And a fantastic looking bike.
Excelent mechanic 💪
Lovely bits and a great video Rob
So beatyfull bike! im glad that we got something special in finland to bike scene! 👌👌
My kind of ASMR... So satisfying to watch. A++ build 🔥
The best video dream bike... Wonderful
Rob !!! enjoyed much the video and good rides with this last gen beauty !! By the way.......Welcome to the Club 🚴♂😀🚴♂
I have mine to It is amazing. Taking it to Ride Southern Spain in Sept but without battery as all uplifts. Got a 3d printed battery cover so I can take a baguette with me😊
This IS a dream build!
Man, that’s a great looking bike!
Top! Please make another extended review!
That thing came out awesome 👊🏼
Amazing E-Bike
What a throughly enjoyable video! What was the build cost in the end?
Well done - such a nice Meditation! ❤
Beautiful ❤
That's art right there.
Would love a video to see how your getting on with bike now ? Absolutely stunning machine and build
well done. thanks for a great video
Keen to see how you like your first Ridout 👌
Great piece of engineering. Not my cup of tea but I very much admire the engineering that's gone into producing this frame. For some reason I hate the bulky head and the overhang it has over the fork crown.
They reduced that on the new one. It’s narrower and doesn’t stick out as far.
There is nothing more rewarding then build up your dream ride from the ground up 😍
Rob that’s absolutely insane 😍
It's beautiful.
What a beautiful Bike!! I´ve heard about Pole since a few Month and i was totally overwhelmed!! So nice bikes and the CNC made is totaly crazy! I´m so sad that the company is bankrupt!! 😓😓

How was your trip in Bovec, Slovenia last year? 😂
@@alexbarsa I was great... But, do we know each other? 😅

@@alexbarsa Ha! That's a coincidence indeed 🤯 Have fun!
Nice build Rob 😎
You nailed it!
TOTAL QUALITY! thats all i can see dude!
Nice Bike great build video.
Wow. Relaxing video 👌
That is an utter beaut 😊💚
How lucky you are!!!
Can't wait to sell my scott ransom eride to order my voima !!
Beautiful build. Dreaming of building Ine of tjene pole bike myself. Mayby next year. Just bought my first emtb last week😎
Work of art 👌👌👌
This man single handedly put the wholesale price of aluminium up 😂 incredible build 👌
Just for the sake of the looks!!! I went to their website:) thanks !
Really is a dream build. Can't imagine much change out of £11k. But worth the money
And the rest 😅
Stunner!!! 😍❤️
Perkkele 🤪 thats a'Dream Bike right there 🤠
There's something about Pole's geometry that I absolutely love, in a very similar way to Mondraker's Foxy and Superfoxy, maybe the top tube and down tube's angles.
Stunning bike, I hope you have as much fun riding it as I did watching you build it
All the toys.
That is an Aluminium Godsled!
Love it!!
Stunning! Such a nice video Rob! It looks likes it's a smaller frame, are we getting your thoughts on that?
K2 🤗
Wow, this was really a build up, swingarms, motor the whole works. Very cool rig! Also where is the Relay review!! =)
Exceptional content Rob 😘👌
