It's crazy how people will cry about a couple grams, yet I gap people on builds that cost more than a car with my Checkpoint ALR 4 on knobby 40" with a bar bag full of camera gear, a half frame full of food and my 14lbs dog in a backpack while going uphill. This build is gorgeous and I would 100% rock the hell outta that!
I have to say, it's really refreshing to see a manufacturer saying "no" to endless proprietary everything while saying "yes" to standardization, ease of use, and interoperability with common standards (that and keeping immediately obsolete equipment out of landfills). Oh wait, I'm sorry that's in an alternate universe.

Could you tell me, which tool you used on 7:05, to tighten hydraulic hose nut? I have spanner which can be attached to Torque Wrench, but this tool looks so much better!
It's a pity Trek Factory doesn't fit the sound-damping tubing to the inner frame for their customers... I had to fit my own on my Trek Domane as the rattling was horrendous.
@@roadbikechannel I really love it. A very satisfying sound! Not like the one I bought from a very popular brand that I'm not going to mention, but I'm very disappointed with that wrench.
Love the build, I've got a question though! I'm also doing my first self-supported build and I'm looking for that slotted nut/adaptor for the brake hose bolt like shown at 7:05... Could you name the tool or at least the brand? It's not Wera is it?

It’s what puts me off all the preassembled big brand bikes, you need to rebuild it to put more than the minimal amount of grease, and cut the steerer. And, the bike needs to be rideable to weight it.
Do you think it would be technically possible to put that beautiful handlebar on a mechanical Madone SL 5 Gen 8? Cable routing looks tight, but could a mechanic make it work?
Question on why you added a new olive when doing up the brake line to lever? I was under the impression new shimano levers had the olive pre-installed sitting inside the lever? Is this now not the case on 12 speed?
they are still inside, but we always pull out the olive. We had a few bikes with olives only partial covering of the hose. Better stay on the safe side 👍
@@mikeymike1792 check rb’s tarmac sl8 build vid, 739g for a 56cm frame, claim 685g, which is 54g or 7.8% overweight. I think many manufacturers should be more honest and realistic with claimed weight, especially when weight is a big selling point.
How are you suposed to take out a wheel in the middle of the road if you have a flat tire? I don't know why modern wheels don't have quick releases. Disc brakes overcomplicate things.
If you can carry a tube, pump or co2 you might be able to carry a 5mm hex key/toolset. 😉 And to be fair... The bike comes with a 5mm quick release plugged into the axels. We took it out to get the torque right and because it looks cleaner. 😬

I'm here to see those cool cages and bottles.. Their price is insane though. Hope other make similar cages/bottles.
yeah, you wouldn't wanna loose one of those 😬😅
Magnifique vélo !
La peinture est superbe !
Je le veux !!!
Oh this is big! Congrats on getting a world premiere and giving us the scoop!!
Cheers!
Thanks!! 😃👍
I love that build♥️
Notable el ensamblaje de esa Trek. Muchas gracias por el vídeo. Saludos Alfredo desde Montevideo Uruguay 🇺🇾.
This is amazing modern bicycle anyway.
🤡🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Heavy
Yeah I was expecting same level of lightness as Tarmac SL8 but it was far away of it

7.78kg without pedals is a tank!
Ultegra?
@@siez8152 since dura ace is 262g less than ultegra, make it 7.52kg with da, still a tank.
too bad its not a top spec build!!!
Would definitely want lighter wheels
My Cervelo s5 is Heavyer but it is a Rocketship on the Flat North German Roads.
Beautifull bike and nice music
thank you
Magnifique! J’aimerais pouvoir en acheter un ….😢
Dream bike 🤤

Nm you use for all tighting ...please share one by one 🙏🏻
Hi, is it possible to know the inner circumference of the lower headset bearing and the thickness of this. Headset model? Thank you

Awesome & Thanks :)
First Gen8 New madone Build Video!! Gen8 New Madone ........ Very Good design and aero line....😃 I love Trek ....❤
Yeah, really nice frame and paint job 🤩
It's a pity Trek Factory doesn't fit the sound-damping tubing to the inner frame for their customers... I had to fit my own on my Trek Domane as the rattling was horrendous.
18:35 7.8kg?! that is a super heavy bike. Tarmac sl8 can be 6.7kg with same aero design
not with the same wheels and groupset 😬
I guess its not the SLR model?
It would be cool listing some of the tools used, for example those torque wrenches.
klick klack 🤪 Can't you hear them? 9:27 and 17:52
It appears to be Wera A2 Torque Wrench

Did you cross the cables ? Coz have a big time doing it, also with a RSL bar. It's just sooooo tight there
Hello :) how much the torque for derailleur hanger? In general on UDH theres 25Nm information but it's not too much??
Thanks for reply best regards.
At last a non black frame!

@@roadbikechannel Legend, thank you!
Thank you💯
I presume you couldn't cut the steerer, but that stack of spacers ruins the aesthetics, sadly.
Yeah, it's a size large and the rider wouldn't have been too happy 😅 we'll tell him do do more yoga 😉👍

I tried,no way 😬
What is he mounting at 9:42 below the derailleur? chain catcher?
yes, chain guide. trek is mounting those since a few years 👍
@@roadbikechannel thank you :) would be something great if other brands did that too 😏
Does anyone know the part number for the computer mount?
Is Lidl Trek changing to shimano?
Like the bike, like the vid .. but, why did you change the brake-rotors (not the Ultegra's) and what brand of bit did you use with the Wera rachet ??
Because the rotors he change is more lightweight than the ultegra.
Whats the purpose the weighing everything piece by piece?
to have the real weight of the parts and especially of the frame. Otherwise it's not really possible to compare it to other bikes.

Rear tyre is on backwards 😅

Trek claim the SLR frame weight 796g, fork 350g, but this one…880+390, 10% more.
It's a large frame. Not sure what size they claim that weight on. Usually it's a medium or small.

Take in consideration frame size. Usually they give the weight of a 54 frame (Medium Large).
And don't forget the paint, choosing colors over an all black frame makes quite a difference as well.
With the fancy design, it attracted more paint thus making it more heavier
Over 8kg with pedals 👀🙈lol and price close to 10k what a joke ...😂
This rotors... mmmmm
👍👍
Too heavy for 2025
Less aero than a madone and heavier than an emonda 🙌The new madonda, most pointless bike of 2024 😂
Those wheels are so heavy.
Buy today's standards it's heavy; how much? 5,000? More?
Designed by Warner's Disneyland.
Mein 20 Jahre altes Focus ist definitiv leichter 😂

Yeah, agree same aero just a bit lighter but not as light as Emonda.
