I tip may hat to you both. It's a very patient thing to do and can lead to frustrations, mistakes and broken parts. I know how to do certain things on a bike like bleed brakes and index mechanical gears, but a full build is out my ability.
@@tajulislam1522 i reckon you got the most difficult parts down. the rest is more up to watching youtube tutorials, having the right tools and a general understanding of mechanical working... but i also understand its not for everyone.
I work now 6 years as mechanic in a shop and also for teams and I do this with every bike that I have to build. I’m used to do this and you know these days with quick wheel changes sometimes it can make a difference
I like all the part of a dream build... but I love in particular when they make the adjustment on the SRAM shift, with the front derailleur and his "robotic" sound 😍😍
The rethreading is the teams routine since they are using power tools to insert the axels. It's just to make sure the axle goes in smoothly during a quick wheel swab at a race.
@@roadbikechannel to be clear: i am not against a mechanic running a tap through the threads. But you have to wonder why the tap is actually cutting so much material out of there. Same if you would show resurfacing the disc brakes mont and you would have to cut off more than a hair of material, just not a sign of the high quality frame i expect for the 5k price point.
Loved this one (mostly as I'm an avid fan of the RSL Domane). Two things for the tech, protective eyewear around Dot fluid and mask up when cutting carbon steerers.
The technological evolution of two wheels is fascinating and unstoppable, I like the classic ones but the difference is abysmal in terms of aesthetics and efficiency
I am going to build emonda with sram rival 22 but might use some force 22 so no expensive carbon on drive system for daily bike, looking at stem and handlebars that allow internal cable all the way too
Oh my gosh, you had to cut the head stem, and carve the threads into the forks. I would be scared to death to make a multi thousand dollar mistake :) Great video.
Hi!! Watched this video before and other you have. The building look so great, even better then other high quality builds. May I ask what handlebar tape is it on this bike? Would be great to know : ) Thx / Karl
Slick looking bike. Own two ProjectOne Domanes -- 2013 & 2016 -- both still going strong. Not sure about the bright yellow stickers though. I'd probably opt for something else. Looks like Trek still has Iso-Speed on the back end by the seat post. What about on the front end? Didn't see it.
That's beautiful... I guess it comes from experience to be able to build almost entire bike with using torque wrench only on your stem :) Maybe Carbon is indeed stronger than I thought...
nice work on building and taking video. I am only mentioning to about 'bike' which costs one of the highest price but 7.7 kg with top components is just too much!
Too much for who? The bike was designed for Paris-Roubaix in consultation with Fabian Cancellara, who then won the event on a Domane, and the 2021 and 2022 women winners were riding this model…
@@danielakerman8241 yes they won paris roubaix in women's race but it is heavy. I know fabian cancellara developed domane with trek which is former generation and this one is heavy with top components period
it'd be hilarious at 5:03 if the cut part fell on the top tube and the just cut area scratched it. compared to builds i saw before, no masks worn. that stuff is bad for you if you inhale it and it's fine when you're cutting.
@@Carftymk Yes, that is where the bike industryis is heading with heavier bikes, so in the future they can reset the market selling even more expensive bikes because grams shaved.
Also in fairness the domane frames have those isospeed things built into the frame that add a fair bit. But yeah the industry "trend" is now to build bikes that hit in and around the 6.8 limit without additional weights being added
It never size to surprise me how heavy this new, "top of the line" , expensive models really are. My 6-7 year old Colnago C-59 frame is about 990 grams, my fork is also about 100 grams lighter than this. Is it really progress?
I assume fork weight to be higher as well due to the load on the flat mount during breaking with discs. Other than that, disc brakes are known to increase wheel weight (torque taken by the spokes), and the Domane has Isospeed
weight doesn't matter -- it's been proven time and time again. It only matters in hill-climb events where you're ascending a slope (and not descending). It's been shown countless times that if you're rolling on flat ground, or mixed terrain, weight just isn't that important a factor.
I bought the 2023 sl5 and it is heavy as fuck. My 2012 madone is way lighter and not only that the seat post clamp or “wedge” is defective and out of stock. Stay away from the domane it’s straight garbage!!!!!!
I assume you mean RSL and SLR? RSL has the same race geometry as Madone and Emonda, and 3mm less tire clearance than the SLR. The SLR has the more upright endurance geometry that the Domane is known for. The RSL also doesn’t have the internal frame storage while the SLR does.
I’m enjoying the bike so far th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA My only real complaints are the brakes and the pedals. I feel like a bike designed for bigger people should have much larger pedals and more heavy duty brakes. I’ve only gotten two really good rides out of it, minimal downhill action, and the brakes feel like they’re already going out. A larger person has more momentum, so I think this wasn’t thought through very well. Also, I wear size 13-14 wide shoes. My feet cramp up on these pedals that are clearly made for smaller feet. Since I’m not a pro rider (and I don’t think many are who purchase this bike) I don’t think that the straps on the pedal are necessary at all. None of this takes away from the enjoyment I get from riding, however. I’ll just head to a bike shop to improve on a few things.
I enjoyed this video despite I don't ride. The quality and finish of the parts is superb. Purely out of interest... what would a bike like this cost, assuming all these components can be bought "off the shelf" ?

Frameset costs 5000€ and you have to recut the through axle threads? appaling!
I know right!!!!
It’s not like there’s a small cleanup happening either. That’s a LOT of material being removed from those threads.

I don't like Trek bikes very much, but one thing I appreciate is that they have stem+handlebar instead of those silly intergrated cockpits.
Yeah, not the worst idea! it's pretty much hidden away and you're still able to swap a stem or a few spacers 👍
