You're being too modest. I don't know you, but my guess will be that you can easy build a bike from scratch in 9 min, like most of the guys watching this video :').
What this makes me realize is that perhaps there are different materials now and disc brakes ( but on those the principles of fitting and such are pretty similar to rim brakes) nothing has really changed on bikes from when I was a kid in the seventies in England finding scrap parts and building my own bikes from the ground up. Amazing to think how they got the basic design pretty much right from the start
I used to do that too, back in the 70’s and 80’s, now i’m getting back into it in a big way. There’s a lot to learn for such a ‘simple’ machine: geometry, tig welding, heat treating, all the little adjustments.... Back then I would go around looking for bike parts all around town and build some fairly interesting frankenbikes, and i had an obsession with complete tear-downs just to clean and regrease everything. I’m enjoying and looking forward to this whole process again.
WOW!!! The titanium frame, the parts, the music, the cameras well in place, the skill of the Master ; ), the dog ... when the video was finished I realised that it was far too short : ) Really cool!!! One of the best I have seen!!! Congrats and thanks for sharing!!!
It is now officialy my dream, to be able to build a bike with entirely new components in a workshop and with a toolset like that. It's basically porn for every amateur tinkerer out there.
Totally feasible (and great to accomplish) but beware with parts compatibility ;) Take a look at the "croix de fer" frames, they're gorgeous (assuming you'd like a gravel)
Now I understand how to set the shifter/brake hood height to get them the same. Couldn't figure out a good way and none of the other builds show this part. Love these videos.
Came across this video after recently into cycling and RUclips feeding me random bike video. Watched the full video for the first time and earned my subscription right away. Very well put together!
5:24 I've seen other video bike builds where they speen the crank arm and it rotates forever without stopping immediately like this one. Is the difference between those two good or bad? And what causes it?
Am I the only one that sees Quick release, mechanical 11speed, with Sram brakes, and aluminum handlebars? Seems like an achievable dream for literally anyone
So soothing and enjoyable. Must say I love my Camino Ti but would love to have the newer version with cable through carbon fork and the larger diameter steerer tube.
Awesome video Gee but that mechanic in the video installed the bar tape the wrong way round, it should tighten as the rider twists towards him. That bar tape will loosen over time :) just a tip for the mechanic
Yeah but think of how many times their tape gets changed a year probably every race. The average rider changes it once or twice a year so direction matters a lot more IMO
I wondered if anyone would open this can of worms. Some might say the tape not only is the wrong rotation direction, but it's also the wrong direction from end to beginning. If you wrap from the top to the bar end then you don't have that messy electrical tape to deal with. Aside from that nitpick, I loved this video. Only thing I think I'd like to have seen was the setup of the tires, tubeless taping, Stans, pumping, all that fun.
I 6 feet 8 inches guy in our club just ordered one. He contacted Tom from Alpkit and explained his giant sizing. Tom organised a bespoke frame size design. Alpkit just sold another of their Sonder Camino GRX 1 By bikes to the individual in question. So do not be put off by the supposed size XL restrictions, they can go bigger. Bespoke does add on an extra £300 though or $420.
Dude this is now the third time I’ve had to search for your channel & resubscribe. I’m sure I’m not alone. Good video and hey at least I’ve a few to catch up on for those long shitty train rides so I can’t complain too much
Hey QR worked great for a hundred years and I love cable shifting- very nice build and well thought out I’m sure he has a specific plan in mind that included those decisions because with his skills and the money he spent he could have went any direction with his build so that’s it, nice to be different.
Thanks Gee I enjoyed watching that. Wish I could build my bikes as quickly. Never fitted disc lines are they difficult to bleed. Currently saving to get a Gravel bike and the aluminium version is on my list. I think I will go for the Rival version as if I need to I can fit a 38t chain ring as being an old boy I might need it and I understand you cannot get a 38t for the Apex version. Hopefully I will be in touch soon.
Very cool. After watching this its pretty safe to assume that i can now dismantle and rebuild my own bike in 16 mins.
Someone who truly knows what they're doing can make complex jobs look easy.
You're being too modest. I don't know you, but my guess will be that you can easy build a bike from scratch in 9 min, like most of the guys watching this video :').
Unless u forget where u put ur tools. Effectively 8 minute, but finding ur tools will took a week long 🙃
Unless u don't drop any items to the abyss
This was therapeutic. 🙏
I was going to say exactly the same thing!
Me too i was going 2 say exactly same
All the little clicking noises of the tools is sooo satisfying! Very therapeutic.

"from the start"?
Do you really mean 1870 then ?
Truly a dream bike. No nonsense specs in combination with beautiful titanium.
And as always, top of the line camerawork and editing!
That dog lol 🐕 !! Awesome build and filmmaking !! As always

After finishing my first ever build up, of a vintage gravel conversion last night, this just hit the spot
It is now officialy my dream, to be able to build a bike with entirely new components in a workshop and with a toolset like that.

Sounds a little gay tbh
but you need a shiba to
@@juiceboxt.v8192 And whats the problem with that?
"Gravel Porn"...love it! Great build!
Incredible cinematography work. This is now in my top 10 YT videos. Thank you for making this.
For me bike building is definitely about the journey.
As an owner of titanium CX bike myself, I had goosebumps from this video. )
nothing beats the sweet sound of titanium rustling...
So satisfying when you build your own bike, just no other feeling in the world.
It’s always legendary to see how to build a bike in epic perfection
Now I understand how to set the shifter/brake hood height to get them the same. Couldn't figure out a good way and none of the other builds show this part. Love these videos.
Как приятно щелкает. Классный вел , классный видосик.
Да братуха, это тебе не производство стелсов в Брянске
You can see that mechanic isn't doing this for the first time! :D Nice one.
Yep, it's not his first day....
Awww that dog :3
Before watching this video, I had a headache. No more headache after watching a skilled mechanic assemble a gorgeous titanium gravel bike.
Who knew building bikes can be this spiritual?
This made a bike build look SOOOO easy! Call me Mr. All Thumbs.
WOW! As someone who works in a shop and seen this process so many times, I can tell you that you made it look beautiful. You got a sub from me!
That dog in conjunction with the bike made up for a big smile at the end! Great video as always!
meanwhile, i'm hurdling in my garage trying to find a 5mm allen key
That was so pleasing to watch! Great filming an so much skill in the hands of the builder. Beautiful bike as well!
The Shiba was the only reason why I clicked on the video
X2
The Shiba thinks it owns the bike shop
Me2😁
I kinda feeling related to the videomaker, I'm (just started) with maintaining my mtb and I also have two Shiba's :D
@@coenng5787 i might be getting a shiba :)
I'm brazilian! practical mountain biking like a therapy. I have been following your videos for a few months and this is very relaxing. Hugs !
This video is my source of zen.... some day, I will do a full build like this!
In 8(eight) minutes !!! That's a PRO or amature ??? Gimme that BIKE !!!!
THAT guy knows what he's doing. Just perfect. Sadly he's not working in the bike shop around my corner ...
Came across this video after recently into cycling and RUclips feeding me random bike video. Watched the full video for the first time and earned my subscription right away. Very well put together!
Can't stop watching this build, fascinating.
I utterly and thoroughly enjoyed watching this video and I have not enjoyed watching a video on RUclips this much in a really long time.
Смотрел как завороженный .
Спасибо .
Amazing but the skewers are so thin? Why not use thru axles?
ErinDoes
Shhh..Who cares? Just enjoy the moment.
My heart rate increased watching this, waiting for the finished product. Absolutely beautiful bike.👍👍👍
This has been my Gee Milner favorite bike and video.
Bottom bracket was so satisfying!
Very relaxing ! So much passion ! 😮
5:24 I've seen other video bike builds where they speen the crank arm and it rotates forever without stopping immediately like this one.
Is the difference between those two good or bad? And what causes it?
Fede Juarez The bottom bracket when the crank spins forever is made out of ceramic bearings, and it is extremely expensive.
This is my dream bike, a pretty big dream for me 😂😊
Sweet ride! I loved the video! A cyclists ASMR video! The plethora of different bike building noises, coupled with that lovely music... Brilliant :D
The mechanic really knows what he does. Excellent work!
nyaa ... he ripped the bar tape in the wrong way!
Thank you Sander. It was a poem.
Every bike I see here is my dream bike!!!
I could sit here and watch these builds all day long
This is a truly dream video. It´s like building a super sport car everything fits.
Sound is amazing, I could go to sleep listening this 😪
No where near my dream bike build ... but that was the most enjoyable zen bike build video I have ever watched.
I can watch that over and over again. My happy place.
someday I really have to try a gravel bike. Awsome build and setup
Am I the only one that sees Quick release, mechanical 11speed, with Sram brakes, and aluminum handlebars? Seems like an achievable dream for literally anyone
That was wonderful to watch. I’m looking for one bike to rule them all. This could be the one!
Amazing looking bike!
Great video, always looks so easy when you watch someone else building a bike up
Nicely done. Looks as though he employs about the same effort level as I do filling my water bottles!
Yes, please.
Beautiful bike. I bought a panasonic for 15 bucks. I am restoring it and watching this is exciting.
Clean work, great bike and beautiful dog!
Obsessed. This video is a thing of pure beauty.
Эстетическое удовольствие!
Simple man i see doggo, i click so cute and satisfying build.
So soothing and enjoyable. Must say I love my Camino Ti but would love to have the newer version with cable through carbon fork and the larger diameter steerer tube.
Stellar build! I think a tan seat/handle bar tape would suit this build as well!
Es hermoso ver este vídeo, es una combinación de buen trabajo del camarógrafo, con una buena canción de fondo, es muy, pero muy relajante
The dog being so proud at the end says it all - great job! 👌
Aw cmon! I was waiting for the messy bleeding process! Awesome vid
Beautiful technical skills.
Artwork. Simply astonishing!
Golden hands of the master! Nice to look at!
I smiled when I saw those threads in the bottom bracket.
Exactly my thoughts.
I actually is a "dream bike", after all.
No shitty pressfit..
That how all the old bike frame were done
Interesting that the crankset spun no more freely in this threaded BB than in one of the pressfits that bores always moan about
Watching this video is a pleasure as the music sounds like Explosions In The Sky.
Awesome video Gee but that mechanic in the video installed the bar tape the wrong way round, it should tighten as the rider twists towards him. That bar tape will loosen over time :) just a tip for the mechanic
Some pros actually ride it this way, so no problem
Yeah but think of how many times their tape gets changed a year probably every race. The average rider changes it once or twice a year so direction matters a lot more IMO
Well thats how i like it too.Just feels good on the hands
more folks "push" than "pull" on tbeir bars. he did it just fine, but I get your point.

Oddly hypnotic, waiting for large sizes to come in!

Its like watching a bike build edition of a satisfying video
At least for me it is
What a pleasure watch this.
Threaded bottom bracket! Hallelujah!
Dude this is now the third time I’ve had to search for your channel & resubscribe. I’m sure I’m not alone. Good video and hey at least I’ve a few to catch up on for those long shitty train rides so I can’t complain too much
So clean, so pretty, so want one.
amazing build, it's a pity frame has QR, thru-axle would be a better choice for a gravel
Wheels are not super either
That is the first thing that came to my mind. Why spend all this money to make such basic mistake!
Hey QR worked great for a hundred years and I love cable shifting- very nice build and well thought out I’m sure he has a specific plan in mind that included those decisions because with his skills and the money he spent he could have went any direction with his build so that’s it, nice to be different.
I feel like the cable going out of the gear cable is like your signature shot
Love your work mate!...Hats off to the filming & processing team. Its so soothing.💓
I don't believe this. Should have been longer! This was very therapeutic to watch. Automatic subscription.
So cool and very relaxing to watch. I hope I will be able to have a bike like that. Great!
That frame is gorgeous
I dont know if it was the music or the beer I am drinking but this magical
Great video.... beautifully shot
Jeder Handgriff. setzt..bravo.
There was a dog in the dogs trust that looked exactly like yours! Her name was Gabby and I wish I took her home with me 😍
Hermosa bicicleta y tambien tu trabajo es excelente. Saludos
Beautiful bike with excellent geometry. I'd have put on 25mm riser bars and single speed, but that's just my taste.
question, is there a disadvantage to still use a QR over TA drop out in gravel bike?
It is a beautiful process to see a bike being put together. Lovely bike and video!
My heart was stealed by the so wonderful...dog!
So many why’s in component choises, but i totally dig the choice of dog 😀
I have to be honest, I'm here just to see the shiba. So cute...
Fantastic !!! Very nice, a pleasure to watch you work and assemble this bike. Cheers from Brazil !
I hope , one day . I , have one of this , beautiful bike . Salute from Puerto Rico!!
clicked for the bike build and the shiba stayed for the bike build and the shiba
Thanks Gee I enjoyed watching that. Wish I could build my bikes as quickly. Never fitted disc lines are they difficult to bleed. Currently saving to get a Gravel bike and the aluminium version is on my list. I think I will go for the Rival version as if I need to I can fit a 38t chain ring as being an old boy I might need it and I understand you cannot get a 38t for the Apex version.
Hopefully I will be in touch soon.
Now that is a bike. Love it.
