Handbuilt Roadbike gets a Sram AXS Force groupset!

- I'm having a new road bike frame built, so I needed to strip some parts off my handbuilt "Drumlin" road bike and rebuild it with some Velocity wheels and a Sram AXS Force 12 speed eTap electronic groupset. Watch me strip things down, rebuild and tune my personal, handbuilt road bike!

I'm really enjoying your videos! Agree with your philosophy of repairing and reusing older bikes and that they're a much better choice and value than big box store bikes. I've noticed that some of your videos run 60 to 90 minutes. Seems these days that i only go to the short attention span theatre. You have a lot of great content. I think more of it would be seen in 10 to 20 minute segments. Yoye call, of course.
Hi Just finished viewing clip of o/hauling Ross Mt. Hood mtb 1983 model. L have rescued a road Ross Gran Prix Pro model with a 1971 bicycle license sticker from Corvallis OR When I acquired it as only a frame and fork with cottered all steel crank Chunky lugs, but frame alone without crank was fairly light Cable ferrules for rear brake cable are brazed on bottom of top tube, but everything else bottle cage, down tube shafters and shift cable guides/ferrule has to be clamped on. The bottom bracket shell is only about 72 mm wide. After removing both fixed and adjustable cups I installed sealed BB cartridge which has about 16 mm of left side adjusting cone sticking out.
Tnstalled a Tange fork This bike fits me and I like knowing riding over 50 yo bike I'm 73)
Best bike channel on RUclips !
I get in a zen mode with these videos, thanks!
Such a baller build!
Enjoyed your Waterford bike check and 300k video last year and would love to see additonal randonneuring videos and more peeks into your personal bike stable.
I need to reduce my bicycle collection size as rents are insanely high where I live .
I dig the custom cassette lock ring wrench. I’m stealing that idea. Maybe I’ll weld two of those old seat posts together for extra leverage.
I don’t think you want that much leverage
Great video, have you considered adding a list of parts, cassettes, seats, dynamos, etc. that we could purchase from you or a distributor you’re associated with?
The wireless shifters looked wild on the build. Handlebars were also an awesome choice.
Sounds like sane paper in your bottom bracket😅😅😅
You should put a little bit of air in those TPU tubes before you install. Just enough to give it a slight round circumference shape. That prevents it from getting pinched as you install them, as it will tuck into the tire better.
Yeah. They had some air in them. Maybe a bit more next time. 👍👍
@@bkefrmr I've used the cheaper type TPU tubes in the past. Some can be flawed at the bottom of the valve stem where it comes out of the tube. I prep them with a bead of hot glue around the base of the stem. It seems to give them a little more stability.
I have done this for as long as I can remember . A little air in the tube to shape it before installation .
DoubleTap is BASED af. 🦆the haters
When I went to clipless pedals I went with the two bolt SPD. Then I ended up going to Speedplay, now I'm back to two bolt SPD if that tells you anything :). I never understood the SPD-SL/Look style ones since you're walking on the wear surface the whole time... I really liked Speedplay pedals for the float, it did help when I had a knee injury. But when I went back to SPD, it was like a big sigh of relief, no more cleat cover to deal with, easier to walk, easier to clip in and out. Some folks say the other styles provide a better "surface" to put power in to, not sure I buy that a lot if you're using a stiff shoe.
I like riding mountain bikes but I like doing dirt trails and stuff like that I don't want nothing clipped or attached to me if I want to bail I want to be able to bail cuz I do jumps as well too raced Motocross my whole life from 38 awesome drag race to four-wheeler
@@No_ReGretzky99 I only use flats on mountain bike for the same reason. I don’t really do any jumps, but I want to be able to step off in a hurry. On my road bikes I like to clip in.
the BB casting seems unusually fine. Keirin tubing lel ? 135mm OLD with 12 speed i know cable derallieurs dont like it
Looks like you have a Selle Anatomica seat. Aren’t those GREAT!
I can do the work myself and everything I just don't know what goes on my bike I got the Ozark ridge 27 and 1/2 in from Walmart but just as a little backup bike I'm looking at getting the Kona but I want to change an upgrade but I want to stay with a single chain ring so what would be a good brake system I know it has disc brakes are ready but they're junk and a good chain ring and shifter and derailleur?? It's an only an eight-speed that's perfect 👍🏻👍🏻😅😅😅
I like to do the building creative part I just don't know what's all compatible I took about a 15-year break and everything's changed so much I like the style new mountain bikes I like the single chain ring I only need about 8 to 10 speeds the one I got from Walmart the Ozark ridge vibe 27 and a half it's just to get me started back into it when I get my taxes I'm getting one of the konas to take a kona lmfao prolly the lauve its exactly what i need 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
How do you know what chainring bearings and stuff is compatible for upgrades on my bike?? There's been RUclipsrs who done upgrades on it is it from Walmart but I know how to do the work I just everything so much different nowadays🎉🎉🎉
Can’t tell from the video, but are those short pull rim brakes? Or the velo orange grand cru? Trying to get a short pull rim brake with clearance for 32mm. Excited to see the new build but that bike is quite nice as well! You have a preference for tubes? I’m a big fan of Reynolds and tange but have not tried anything from Columbus or true temper…yet.
Honestly, I don’t think the brand of tubes matters. I know that the .7-.4-.7 butting on these Kaisei tubes is too thin for my height and/or weight.
The new bike is made with a NOS Waterford True Temper S3 tubeset I bought from a guy who won it in a silent auction years ago. True Temper no longer makes bike tubes and Waterford just closed down for good. A former Waterford (and Serotta) builder is fillet brazing the bike for me. Check out Dave Wages’s work at Ellis Cycles!
These are Tektro r539 brakes. Mid reach I think. It’s a combination of where the brake bridge is and how much reach the calipers have. I built the bike for 28mm tires. 32 is very, very tight!
@@bkefrmr Dave is making some beautiful bikes. I always get velospec and true temper confused, I don’t know to many builders other than Rodriguez using velospec. Tube shape and frame builder seem to be the winning combination as oppose to brand of steel. Id like to get a custom steel to go along with my TI Sanitas cycle, although at some point I might need a new car 😂. Love the content, thanks for sharing the build!
Nova does tubing and dropouts , lugs etc as well like Ritchey did .
@@bkefrmr Why can't you cut , mill , file and weld it up yourself in an adjustable jig . Brazing with lugs if steel alloy tubing , using nickel bronze phosphorus filler wire that has flux in it . I did some boilermaking studies for the railways 30 or so years ago . I did a refresher at technical college 20 years ago . I have access to MIG and TIG equipment . I have worked with Nova , Ritchey ,Columbus and Reynolds . I own two bicycles with frames that I fabricated myself with great accuracy and care . A worker of mine rides / loves one of them and it hasn't missed a beat , made from Columbus SLX cro - mo - niobium - vanadium alloy , oversize tubing with my name on it in blue and gold . I have done aluminium and steel alloy heat treatment work as the railway had a large foundry where I did some metallurgy studies .
Did you weigh the frame and fork after you built it? Wondering what you can get a steel frame down to?
I probably did, but it's a meaningless thing. TBH, I never should've built this bike.
A cockpit is an enclosed area its steering. Horrible bars
I want to change out my crankset on my backup mountain bike also put a new chain ring which is a single chain ring eight-speed do you really I just want to upgrade the bike a little bit it's a backup bike when I get my federal taxes I'm getting a new Kona mountain bike for a start 988 she got the best of me and I went and purchased the Ozark ridge 27 1/2 it's called the vibe but it's not bad for what it is I've been doing mountain bikes my whole life😅😅😅😅😅😅
For creating a community it requires transparency. That means the barbaric situations shouldn’t be excluded, even though your content gets demonetarised by the standards of RUclips 😂
What’s the name of the saddle in the video? Thx
Selle anatomica saddle seen it in another comment im just getting bsck into mountain biker im rugged any seat will do 😅😅😅😅
I have found out that battery theft is an emerging problem for these electronic derailleurs . Firmware updates gradually water down performance over time , the more of them you permit to download and install . This is forced redundancy which means replacing the derailleur/s every five years or so .
I’m not that experienced, but yes. In general, if you’re operating in the modern bike technology space, you’re operating in a world of constant consideration of fussy details and other bullshit. But is sure works great when it’s working!
I agree I'll never go to a wireless shifter I like cable shifters but they are nice I watch a lot of mountain biking videos and burn peak has them on his mountain bikes I'm just getting him back into mountain biking after 15 year break because of active addiction now I'm sober but everything's changed so I'm really learning🎉🎉❤❤❤

What's a Road Bike? - I think all bikes work well on a road! lol And, skinny girls have weight problems too.
No they don’t
@@Tarmaccyclocrossthen why do they all say they do?? 😂😂😂😂
Not s fan of sram..or scam..go Shimano
And snap your cranks 🤣🤣🤣🤣
