Do you know what the metallic ring he slid between the fork’s steerer tube and the upper bearing’s compression ring is? My SL7’s headset has made tons of clicking noises since it was new (about 8,000 miles ago), and I’m wondering if this is some sort of remedy?

Much respect to this mechanic. His attention to detail is 2nd to none. You know if the rider doesn't like or feel comfortable with any aspect he will adjust it to specification. Incredible. The fact that this is a mobile build is stunning. The equipment needed is mind boggling and would rival motorsport sheds. Respect from Australia. 🇦🇺🇦🇺
It’s amazing how a Pro peloton team mechanic could build a new bike on the field just like that. These pro team mechanics gets no rest. They prepare the bikes before the race starts. Ride along the team car during the race to fix any mechanical. Then after the race. Cleans and inspect the bikes. Then rebuild it again if necessary or change the gearing setup for the next stage race.
@@roadbikechannel From yesterday’s Tour de France Stage 1 massive crash. I heard from the commentary that the mechanics were all up until 1am fixing all of the bikes. Each crashed bike takes an average of 2 hours of inspections and repairs.
"If you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life" I bet this guy loves every second of it, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Peter Sagan would just make it all that much better
Wow, you can really see how much work internal cable routing is, not just on the manufacturing side but also skills necessary by the mechanic. Great video! Enjoyed it a lot, big kudos to the mechanic ❤️👍
Came back to watch this build video again by a great builder and the best rider in the past 10 years. If he win one last big one day race a lot of people are going to be in tears. I mean I am sure the fans are already teary hearing about the retirement. All hail Peter Sagan.
The cable / hydraulic lines in these new bikes really look to be a pain in the ass to assemble, I would love to have a Tech like this guy build my next bike. Masterfully done.....
Probably the same issue a lot of companies struggle with: The diameters and roundness of the bottom bracket holes. Once one side is out of tolerance it is immediately recognisable when spinning the cranks. And they still sell these frames for thousands of euros/dollars.
At least the mechanic seemed to be pretty thorough in his efforts to adjust it. I think he did a very good job. But what can you do, if frame manufactures are to stupid to get some simple tolerances right...
@@11-inch in case you didn't know, also the Bsa Shell has to go into the carbon frame 😃 and threads inevitably introduce some deviation, because they need "room " to work. Trust me, I am engineer. Bsa is just a step backwards from a technical perspective, because frame manufactures sell you frames >3000$ and dont want to spend to money on getting some basic tolerancea right
With BSA you have 1. bearings which are pressfitted into the outer bottom bracket cups 2. the interface bottom bracket shell - carbon frame and then 3.the threads themselves. That are just more points to introduce misalignment compared to a direct pressfit solution. A good direct pressfit will be lighter, stiffer and more precise. The only difference: Threads will not creak even if they are done poorly
i am korean fan I think it's the best video I've seen so far, the bike is cool, but the engineer is so cool was the best I cut it off with a video of a bike I want to ride someday.
The Biggest compliments go to this team mechanic. Your awesome bro! He’s the star of the show with an amazing supporting cast...the bike. What’s his name?
Quality work is learned by instilling it in genetics over generations and generations and generations. We all know where quality comes from and where it never was.
Best Pro bike build I seen in a long time 😍 watched every second of this talented man painstakingly put this bike together!! Thank yoy for bringing us this #moreplease surprised no national colours paintjob though!!
Por fin un video en que el mecánico hace todo bien. Las diferentes grasas y pastas en sus correctos lugares y medidas. Ahora quiero un dispensador de pasta de cobre.
You just know this would be the first time this mechanic has to keep his cool with the headset and cable assembly haha. What used to literally be a 5 minute job is now an hour of FAFF.
Yeah, and for even mechanically savvy amateurs to just drop out the fork every couple weeks to check on steerer health .. forget it .. major pita. Internal routed disk brake bikes look bitchin and all .. but they are for pro teams with the resources .. not daily drivers for amateurs. Mine looks great in the living room as a piece of art and that’s about it.
A craftsman…oblivious to some of my antipodean brethren, enjoys the satisfaction of a job well done, takes pride in combining a disparate set of components and frame set together into what even its harshest critics concede is a thing of beauty. Whatever ones view as regards the brand, which I can agree with on a lot of points… don’t take them out on the professional bike mechanic, nor confuse his work with that of other individuals. You wouldn’t want everyone to tar you with the same brush of some arbitrary demographic, which would be unfair to you right, why take out your frustrations on someone, who anyone with the eyes to, can see does a great job, enjoys it, and, moreover, doesn’t spend inordinate amounts of time trolling. If you troll too much, you’re liable to lose the impact of the good that you say within the filler of the spurious, baseless chaff e.g. the criticism of phil gaimon…(based on what?) just my 2c. P.S. by “what”, I mean evidence, what you’ve witnessed the individual do for example, as opposed to saying, “well I used to race pro, therefore I can tell by someone’s bmi”, come on.

I thought at first its a standard shimano bb, which normally spins like in the video, but after the second time watching the build, I realised its a CeramicSpeed unit, and I was astounded. If you watch Canyons pro builds, each frame is X-Rayed. and thoroughly checked, tolarences for example, and that means that only good frames in all aspects get ridden by the Pros, I'd expect the same procedures from Bora-Hansgrohe. Or, maybe, its a faulty BB, who knows..
The bike is obviously mesmerising.. but that whole workshop (tools, stand, everything) is just an absolute dream 😍😍😍 incredible craftmanship all around Wish I could build a bike one day with that setup!
To all the noobs who said I was wrong about big name riders getting special forks and frames. You can clearly see this aint no stock consumer level carbon layup fork and frame.
Shit. The fork head does look different from a consumer level one. Are we all conned by Specialised? Spending all that top dollars thinking we are getting the same product?
The mechanic uses the stem from Venge, not Tarmac (incorrect description). You can see how it's off and not flush with spacers. Also it weights 250 grams, tarmac stem is lighter. I'm wondering why Sagan opted for Venge stem vs Tarmac? Maybe stiffness?
I use to work on Digital Printing Presses....1/2 million dollars . 20 feet long...........and this mechanic has more tools and "pallets" in his tool case than I ever carried.
"road bike channel" actually gave an answer to someone else in the comments saying: "His name is Mindaugas Goncaras, he's a former road racing cyclist from Lithuania, active between 1992 and 2005." Thanks!
Absolutely loved how he bled those brakes man. No lie that is so smart. Love seeing new ways to do things

So the moment he spins the Crank there is a cut... Intersting, very intersting.
The first video without the usage of any park tool component.
:D You're right - there are other ways to do it ;).
He was happy with the way that BB spun?? Looks like it had peanut butter in the bearings.
I like seeing threads in the bottom bracket though.
Yeah--i was thinking the same thing. There's about 0.5Watts wasted.
Probably the same issue a lot of companies struggle with: The diameters and roundness of the bottom bracket holes. Once one side is out of tolerance it is immediately recognisable when spinning the cranks. And they still sell these frames for thousands of euros/dollars.
I've watched so many hambini videos and know right away something is wrong with that bb
@@fritz2934 thats also why pressfit is better in terms of efficiency
Didn't realised former England goalkeeper David Seaman is now a pro mechanic..
His name is Mindaugas Goncaras, he's a former road racing cyclist from Lithuania, active between 1992 and 2005. We'll add it in the description👍

In case you didnt know, that is a BSA bottom bracket.

What a build, work of art from the pro. His bar taping is spot on maintaining tight tension all through and the end result shows.
Peter Sagan prefers a really tight and small wrap with the smalest overlapp possible. His brother is just the opposite with a really thick wrap.

pain in the ass cable routing but I love that the edit shows a lot of the fit, back out, adjust, refit detail to get it all perfect.
Yea, it shows the mechanics on the highest level of racing ;).
Althought a spintest is not a valid test, i'm suprised how badly the crank spun.
It even stuck, instead of falling down on its own weight
@hambini bb should fix that. 😉
Im pretty sure a 3 times world champion's bike mechanic know what they are doing.
@@11-inch Doesn't excuse the fact that the crank spun like shit, mate.
@@11-inch it has nothing to do with that. If the bb of the frame is not aligned perfectly it wont spin freely unless you solve the issue.
