Your videos have been very helpful. I was stuck on a TCR versus the Emonda SL7 for the longest time but I've decided to go with Trek mainly because of their customer service and warranty.
Don’t mess with tubeless for a tire narrower than 28. You need higher pressures for road tires and this makes it harder to make a rim with a good tire-rim interface, not to mention fix on the side of the road if the sealant fails. Not worth the trouble. A lightweight clincher with a latex or TPU tube can get you close to tubeless weight.
Hello I looking to get a same emonda Still thinking what size should I get 52cm or 54cm I’m 175cm 30 inseam Current ridding 2017 giant tcr advanced size small Saddle height from BB 71cm With 4cm stem spacers.
Hi, I think you the small Emonda would be a closer fit to your current TCR. I would suggest giving both sizes a try, just so you can have a comparison and because the bar width/stem length/cranks would also be different.
Nice looking bike 👌 The seat mast cap seems to be at the minimum height, may I ask what is your saddle height? I am asking because from Trek's website I should be in the same situation for a 50cm frame.
@@bmmelo2oo7 I think so ? I'll double check with kyo haha. I think kyo is somewhere in the other comments, do you mind replying to one of his comments to reach him directly??
Hey Kyo. How do like about the size? I am about your height, but ordered a 52 and waiting (ETA Sep per Trek Burnaby). Trek Burnaby told me 54 would be the right size for me however I had test ride for both 52 and 54 then I felt more comfortable with 52 so I went with it. Now I feel like I should have tried 50 as well.
It really depends on your body composition. The best thing is look at your length of your Inseam, if your are around my height you could have longer legs, then from there if you have long arms too then 52 should be okay but otherwise m, 50 would work. So you can definitely try the 52, and they have a 30 day return policy then switch to a smaller size if it does not work
@@kyotang8657 Sorry. I should be more specific. project one. I picked the color and wheelset and so on at the time of order so not sure if I can exchange it. Hope I can though..

Please always wear a helmet .. one Walker jumps in front of you, takes you down on your Mellon?..thank you for the review of new features.. I have a 4 year old SL7 di2 disc Ultegra 11 speed.. 58cm..takeaways: bars come stock 42 but feel like 44.. way to wide for most riders.. I resized to 40cm.. Poor choice to offer the tubeless ready design.. need to buy a wheel strap that eats up all the wheel valley space, making tubeless GP5 almost impossible to fit (for me at Least) .. guess that’s where they cut cost. Agree- must be TR now.. Carbon bike= buy a torque wrench..
Lol this guy is too hyped

Thanks !!! Trek has one of the industry's best service and warranty program. Which trek did you get ??
@@pattnwia going to get the Emonda SL7 with etap and avoid having to get PM pedals. I've had SRAM in my previous bikes so I'll give it a shot.
@@kevinc9528 nice !! I really like the gold color on the e tap build ! Keep us updated. Hope you get it soon
I have the trek domane al2 2021/2022 rim brake, exactly same paintjob. Super lovely under the sun. For those looking for something cheaper

I have 25 tubeless and never had issues with it involving sealant.
The hubs are silent since it has only 18t ratchet on it and newly greased. Just upgrade it to 54t if you want that loud buzz sound.
Oh dude. We 3 need to go for a ride and to do a comparison vid. My sl 6 eTap vs his sl7 di2
That would be really cool !!!
@@pattnwia TLD meet and greet this Friday! Let's do it! Make it a Shorts Review
@@JC-pt2tw I'll ask him if he's free
Weak is the flat pedal choice not the freehub sound
Well I don’t want to fall loool
@@kyotang8657 try some cages, flats are such crippling choice for that bike. Losing 50% efficiency..
@@ikeo1 yeah I will get some soon
Why are there mountain bike flat pedals on a racing road bike?
Helmets optional? Excellent review though. Thanks.
kudos to Jon Maloney for comparison video:)
Hello I looking to get a same emonda
Still thinking what size should I get 52cm or 54cm
I’m 175cm 30 inseam

How does the trek emonda vs ur giant tcr advanced pro in terms of ride feel. Which do you prefer?
They ride very similar, I still prefer the giant TCR tho, just personal preference. Another factor is that one of my first road bikes was a TCR :)
@@pattnwia thanks!

just asked Kyo, he said that its 45.3cm
hope that helps :)
Thanks @@pattnwia. You mean 65.3cm, right? Saddle rail height min (w/short mast) is 58.5 cm.

@@kyotang8657 Thank you very much Kyo. Do you happen to know if P1 is also exchangeable? I didn’t ask but I had a feeling that it may be difficult:(
@@jimmylee3612 what you mean by P1
@@kyotang8657 Sorry. I should be more specific. project one. I picked the color and wheelset and so on at the time of order so not sure if I can exchange it. Hope I can though..
I think you can still return even if it’s a slr
Silent hubs are underrated, nothing worse than being out in nature and hearing metal grinding noises!!
Sick

@@bmmelo2oo7 hi Bruno I checked for you saddle height is 45.2 the seat mast comes in two sizes either 135mm or 175mm
I own the 20.5lb Giant Fastroad advanced 1. If I can lose 5lbs I won't need to upgrade to a lighter Road Bike.
1st one 😉😅
Whoot !! :D
