Man... Soo many parts, washers... I don't understand why Campagnolo can't make stuff more simple... Like FSA, SHIMANO,SRAM I totally understand the guy switching to Shimano 😅
What kind of mechanic doesn't know how to align the wrench handle with the crank arm when removing pedals or cranks, and doesn't know to take the bike off of the stand and place the frame against a solid surface before hammering pressed-in parts out? So painful to watch amateur technique. Hope others aren't copying him.
Stiffness attracts more force; a basic engineering principle. You're actually apply more stress to the frame when the bike is on a hard surface when hammering out pressed-in parts. While the bike is almost free to swing in the stand; almost no force is transmitted into the frame.
@@hansschotterradler3772force doesn’t vanish. The frame is flexing aka there is less force applied to the part you want to take out while a lot of force is applied to the point where the bike is fixed to the stand and along the whole frame to this point. Aka you need to apply a lot more force because you need the force to break the part lose plus the amount lost due to the flexing.I certainly wouldn’t trust the frame any longer after this treatment.
I thought you were heavy handed with the bike as well - if this is a client's bike then was it you who fitted the pedals in the first place as they were way overtight.
Who the hell removes Campy for 105 because they don't like their ride? Unless if the Campy stuff is broken or too worn in, this dude just wants to waste money.
@@EndoftheBlock7224he is not a kid, he is a sir for you and he is proffesional bike mechanic with a lot of expirience. What else can he make videos about?
Pretty laughable the number of people moaning about switching from Campy to Shimano. So what if the bike is 100g heavier. Not going to notice that on the road with the exception of the bigger cassette range for climbing. Pretty sure cost was a contributing factor over spending massively on Campy Record over Shimano 105.
I do not understand the point of the video...if the Athena groupset was still functional , why replace it with a brand new 105 groupset for the cost of it ?
I leave the front D cable uncut until the last moment because i have a hell of a time getting the initial cable tension right on the newer style shimano gtx/105 etc pinch bolts
I liked the video. I rode Campy and Shimano and it is NOT that far apart unless you are a bicycle parts snob. To the mechanic. Thanks for sharing and i will not in 100years lay out all that money for the tools to remove a simple thing like a Campy BB. 🤦♂️. Stick to Shimano and have more time for cycling... Nice video.
A predictable number of cycle snobs commenting, complete with I would say false accusations of convert advertising. I really appreciate the time and effort you put in making this video 👍
The customer should have requested a tune up, with new shifting/brake cables. Use the rest to upgrade a better set of wheels. Wrong move from Campy to Shimano 105.
You’re wasting realty on the video if you use portrait mode. Please, Never go portrait mode in a full length video. It looks hideous on big screen TV. If it was vlogging and a bit of add-ons, Understandable but 11mins of portrait mode just doesn’t sit well.
Sorry to comment, but i would probably spend 80 percent of the total work time by cleaning and detailing that frame before putting the new parts. Nice bike.
I like to set the limit screws without a chain, just by moving the deralieur by hand. then I messure the chainlenght on short/short with minimal chain tension. if the components fit each other there is no problem in big/big eather. and the bar tape had to end earlier, so the full FSA logo would be exposed. You´ve added over 100g by switching to shimano that was not so satisfining... I would have installed a second hand mecanical record instead.
Shimano cables are not pre-lubricated. Rather, Shimano injects a special grease into the plastic housing liner. Wiping the cable removes any surface dirt that would contaminate the lubricated housing liner.
I always wondered how the cables can be replaced inside the tubes. Now I have an idea with that Nd magnet, thanks! I make the maintenance for my own bikes and I had assembled them all for the fun. Nice vid!
I am so confused right now there was nothing wrong with that campag group set. Plus, it suits the Bike better being Italian and how is the bottom bracket shell one side threaded and the other side non-threaded and how is he fitted a Shimano cassette on Campag free hub body I’m so confused right now all I can say is this guy has got himself a free campag groupset
I'm confused. Did he just swap a Campa cassette for a Shimano cassette??? Like it's the most normal thing to do? Like freehubs fit all? I am a self thaught bike mecanic (thanks internet, youtube) and in the 5 years I'm making a living out of it I did a lot of retro race bike restorations. One of the first things I learned is that compatibility is not a given. Clients demand to just swap a part of a certain brand and generation for something completely different. Then I start summing up all the problems and complications I will come across trying to make their ideas work. What am I missing here?
Perfectly understandable to put a 105 in place of Campy. It's like having an Alfa Romeo and replacing with a Toyota. The Alfa will have the prestige and history but the Toyota will be easier to live with, operate and service.
Smells like advertising. There are lots of it on TH-cam, camouflaged on "fans like to watch" kind of videos. However, if the video is legit I'm not sure if the guy will be impressed with the switch.
For bike that is using external cable routing, it is best to use di2. This will leave you with 2 cables instead of 4 and make the overall appearance much nicer. If this were my bike, i would have it completely stripped, then send for a new paint job. After that, install a ultegra di2. Or sell away this bike and buy a new bike. Either way, your customer would be much happier.😂
As a pro wrench, the steps of removing components are really chaotic … no particular orders. Moreover, cleaning in the middle of removal process, with non-environmental-friendly aerosol spray?
@@mr.z2618 there was nothing wrong with the old groupset, why spending money on practically the same design when with a little more money he could’ve gotten DI2, thats an improvement!
Instead of every so called bike genius complaining about fitting japanese 11-speed groupset over Italian 10-speed groupset on an Italian branded bike, do some research on why the customer wasn't willing to pay for an overpriced 11-speed campagnolo groupset. As for the method of building, nothing wrong with his methods or practices.

This is something thr guy at Bike speed wouldn't do... He'll first of all clean and detail the frame before putting on those new parts...
Well this guy hates this bike even more that the last owner lol. Why put 105 on it?
Love the use of the magnet. Also the cat
I found that video fascinating , you make my efforts look laboured lol
I don't understand why people complain. I would do the same, replace some Old used crapy campa and put New 105 or ultegra.
Well changing from on groupset to another is fine, but come on, clean and polish the frame before putting the new stuff on, not good practice.
I feel you

Not an issue for me for example
Funny thing... I took a Miyata 712 with 105 and rebuilt it with 3x11 Athena. Great bike. Probably the best shifting on any of my bikes.
That's a great cat !
Beautiful Job. 💯👍
Sorry to comment, but i would probably spend 80 percent of the total work time by cleaning and detailing that frame before putting the new parts. Nice bike.
😂 Just Luke my cat. He watches me lick up every tool then watches what I do with it, or tries to bite the cables to get my attention

Enlightening to see you disassemble it
Quanta perfeição na montagem. Grande profissional. Parabéns amigo.
I really enjoyed watching you work. Thank you! Question... why do you whipe the cables before installing them? Don't they come prelubed?
Shimano cables are not pre-lubricated. Rather, Shimano injects a special grease into the plastic housing liner. Wiping the cable removes any surface dirt that would contaminate the lubricated housing liner.
@trekkeruss Oh I see! Thank you for clarifying that. I appreciate it.
Obviously the Campagnolo groupset on an Italian frame goes', but it's mechanic heavy, Shimano is a little simpler..imo
Enjoyed watching this a lot. Shimano from campy though... Controversial

Better pre rebuild.
ah ah you swap a campy athena o record for a shimano 105. The most stupid thing to do.
the title should be : My customer didn't love his Bianchi bike anymore, so I spent $2000 on it.
I would upgrade to campy record not 105
I wonder what's wrong with Athena? Apart from cranks...
Havent seen your video in more than a year. Didn't knew you change the name of the channel
Sickbiker was forced into that by TH-cam or they would have shut it down.
Crazy my 40 plus years of experience says so !
Rough as guts!
He could have bough an entire new-used bike for the price of parts and work
My bike feels so crap on the front mech
I want a Whanki Bianchi...soò bad.
Perfectly understandable to put a 105 in place of Campy. It's like having an Alfa Romeo and replacing with a Toyota. The Alfa will have the prestige and history but the Toyota will be easier to live with, operate and service.
do you degrease and oil a new chain before putting it on? :)
I have a race bike from the early 1980’s, new bikes just confuse me.
Smells like advertising. There are lots of it on TH-cam, camouflaged on "fans like to watch" kind of videos. However, if the video is legit I'm not sure if the guy will be impressed with the switch.
Who does not love a Bianci bike?
Bush mechanic. Replacing Potenza with 105 ..... really!!! Clueless. Not detailing the frame before rebuild is rookie stuff.
It was Athena, but your point stands.

I did the same thing but with SRAM. Much cleaner look. It is also surprising how much better two cables look than four on the front of the bike.
Putting Shimano on an Italian bike... you should be locked up for this😜
Una lavatina e una ingrassata a lla serie sterzo non gli avrebbe fatto male🤨
Des patins ?😂
Remind me not to get Campy on any bikes I buy... 😱
You committed a crime. Address ng Shimano in that bike. Basically made it ready for scrap heap with that massive downgrade.
