These videos make me sad knowing none of the bike shops I've used have ever cared for my bikes as meticulously and professionally as you all do.
I know right! My heart kind of sank when he said he made sure he lined up the logos with the valves. Riders in his area are lucky to have him!
No chance the average bike shop cares to use a sonic cleaner, or even bothers to strip components for a proper wash. Dare I mention an entire array of lubricants and anti seize applied meticulously with needle point syringe? No chance!
I'd pay good money to get my bike serviced by him
Thanks to all of you it’s great to read all the comments in support🧡⚙️
Correct but can you imagine how long this took and how much money it will cost ?
I wished I lived near this chap.
Love watching bike speeds, look forward to Wednesday's.
Really informative .
Best Bike repair on TH-cam.
Thanks Roy! It’s awesome that you think that. See you next Wednesday!🧡⚙️
Since I started watching your videos around a month ago I've decided bike restoration is my new hobby! I'm now on my second full rebuild. Completed a Cannondale Quick, now about to start a Claud Butler Roubaix...loving the learning.
Awesome! That’s great to hear, we did do a roubaix on the channel you might enjoy🧡
Solid job there. I actually own a 2021 Giant Propel Advanced Disc 1 🙌😎🇫🇮
Wow, that shine! Lovely job, what a treat that customer will have when they go on their first ride. Beautiful service for a beautiful bike!
Well said! Thanks Jack!🧡⚙️
Wow, one word sums up your bike Services and that is integrity! I have watched every video you have made over the last while and even bought an ultra sonic cleaner. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Now I'm quing up 11 bikes 9 of which cost less than the cleaner.
Go go go! 🎵🎶
I'm glad I'm not the only one who got persuaded by the idea of owning an ultrasonic cleaner 😆. They really work wonders for the drivetrain components.
Thanks! Enjoy your cleaner and your work🧡⚙️
So satisfying to watch!
You should link your website in the video description. Would definitely take my bike to you if I lived closer
Good idea for the new owner to get a proper Bikespeeds service before heading out on the road. This bike will ride as new for many miles. Thanks for another wonderful video guys.
Thanks Todd. It’ll definitely make the “new bike” experience more enjoyable having it working perfectly🧡⚙️
Always enjoy watching your videos - informative and relaxing.
Thanks for always watching them!🧡⚙️
Great outcome, beast of a bike, thanks, Dave, Mooloolaba, Australia
Thanks Dave! Glad you enjoyed it🧡🇦🇺
Great work! It seems as though the saddle position/angle is changing as you torque up the rear bolt in the video.
Wow, what a cool bike! Would love to take that out for a spin. Great job on the service. I’m sure this is riding like a brand new bike now. Job well done 👍
It’s definitely a nice way to treat a new (old) bike because now you get the “new” experience with it being tuned up, thanks for the support Martin🧡⚙️
Catching up on some missed videos, great work here on this premium bike, the polishing & ceramic spray you do is a cut above the already very high standards you set.
Much much appreciated thank you 🧡
Beautiful. As well as being informative I find your videos so relaxing.
Great job guys - would love to see a customer reaction video! Bet they were well chuffed with the end result 👌🏻
We like to think they are, thanks as always fallington🧡⚙️
Every bike with a little bit of love can look amazing! Thank you for another video! Changing houses,that’s the only reason I am so late with the comment 😅!
They do all come up given enough time!🧡⚙️
I agree with you, dry lube can cause so many problems, I have tried it for some time and the after effects don't warrent the benefits. lovely bike I bet the owner has a very big smile.
So do you use wet lube?
@@emorhcelgoog Yes have tried lots of different types and measured the chain wear after 1000 miles and the best one so far has been cheap 3 in 1 oil. it's easy to clean off and re-apply, plus you don't need much, I put a drop on each roller, leave it for an hour or so then give a quick wipe to remove excess.
Fab work as always pretty looking bike also well done to your son for the camera work 👏 x
Thank you and thank you! As always 🧡⚙️
Great job sir.🫡
Thank you very much sir!
B screw adjustment makes a world of a difference! Good catch, I’m sure it’s an everyday thing for you but someone struggling with setting a rear derailleur for their first time could benefit from this catch.
It’s often never right on bikes and makes a huge difference you’re spot on there 🧡
I like cleaning bikes myself, love your commentary 👍
Thanks very much we’re glad you enjoy the videos! Have fun working on your bikes 🧡⚙️
Fantastic service as always guys ! Beautiful bike , appreciate the time and effort that goes into these videos 👍
And we appreciate the support, it’s really the pay off for all the Hardwork on the TH-cam 🧡
Impressive stuff. The care for each individual bike is out of this world. Congratulations 🎉
Thanks very much🧡
I love all your work as you know but you can't beat looking at a decent road bike being brought back to it's original condition. Good job.
It’s very fun for us seeing everyone’s favourite style of bike across the channel. We have another high end propel coming in a few weeks!🧡⚙️
Nice bike, always great to get your hands on these.
High end is always a treat🧡
Nice job guys as always a pleasure to watch 👍. Excellent production standards on the vid. Thank you both
Thank you from both of us Kevin!🧡⚙️
Another really good video from Bikespeeds. Great job , like others i appreciate the quality of filming as well as the content
Thanks Andrew, we work hard on all aspects of the videos so great to get a comment like that🧡⚙️
A1 service as always. Thank you Simon and Lee.
Our pleasure! Thanks Rodney🧡⚙️
Class and care as always
Thanks Ben!🧡⚙️
Nice looking bike.
Epic looking bike! Loved the colouring 🧡
Great job as always!!
Thanks for video!!
Always our pleasure! Thanks 🧡⚙️
Such good service and video quality. The whole of your work is very humbling. If you open up a merchandise store (and deliver to EU) I'll make sure to snatch something up. I feel guilty that these videos are here for free! As always, thanks Simon and Lee. 🚲
Thanks Carlos we really do appreciate it. We’re currently working on a website to hopefully get something back from the TH-cam for ourselves so merchandise is definitely on the way!🧡⚙️
You should re pack the Bering in the hockey wheels with grease makes a huge difference
Really nice looking bike . I must update my Di2 , never done it in 3 years .
Di2 can be temperamental. Often if it isn’t broken don’t fix it. It’s shifted for 3 years with no problems🧡
@@Bikespeeds dry miles only .only ever wiped the bike down ,never washed .
Wow never seen them gears before those are pretty cool 😎
Awesome
Enjoyed the video, as always. Interesting comments about dry lube. I use it because it doesn't pick up dirt as quickly. I thoroughly degrease/clean my drive train monthly so haven't had a problem but I'm going to check closer to see if residual dry lube is building up.
If you keep it clean I’m sure it’s no problem at all it’s just when it builds up that it becomes hard to get off 🧡
I have that same model of bike. God help you the day it needs new headset bearings! The brake hoses pass through the centre of the bearings so you have to open up the brake hydraulics to get the bearings off. Unfortunately, the hydraulic nut will not pass through the holes in the handlebars so you have to cut the olives off to remove the nuts. Whilst it's an aerodynamic joy to ride, it's a bike I only ride in the dry to minimise my chances of ever needing to replace the headset! It's also a bike for very smooth tarmac. It's unbelievably stiff and very punishing on rough surfaces. A bit like riding a steel girder!! But it's like a missile for top end speed.
We have come across similar systems in the shop and you are right they’re a nightmare. Very very un compromised system. That’s a great bike though!🧡⚙️
Great job as always!
Thanks again! 🧡⚙️💪🏼
Beautiful
always wanted to experience a DI2 bike.. maybe the 105 Di2 some day :)
We find 105 di2 rarer to work on than the high end. We’re definitely looking forward to seeing more of it in the future🧡
Lovely. I think I'll give my TCR a similar treatment this weekend :-)
Enjoy it! 🧡⚙️
Quality work there - Great job!
Thanks Dave!🧡⚙️
what a beauty that bike looks now. proper job
Thanks very much!🧡⚙️
Great video as always, what a nice bike!
Nice job again!
Great to see you again! Thanks as always!🧡⚙️
@@Bikespeeds just to give an update. I've tried sanding my pads and brake rotors with 100 grit and man it did wonders. Feels like brand new after bedding in.
Thats one thing I've learned from your videos
An excellent video as always, always looking forward for your videos they are both entertaining and educational
Edutainment we call it! Thanks Fernando🧡⚙️
Light materials but works very well
Well done great video as usual 👏 👍
Thanks Jake! We appreciate all the support🧡⚙️
As a keen cyclist of over 60 years and owner of 10 quality bikes, your videos show the difference between your level of SERVICE and the rest. Also as an aside surprised you do not wear hand protection as you are in contact with various chemicals and lubricants.
Thanks Colin🧡 I’ve never had a problem with chemicals on my hands I wash them regularly and it works for me ⚙️
Lovely video and amazing job!
Thank you very much saka!🧡⚙️
Watch the clips every week love them,i have Di2 12 speed and want to update firm wear in leavers what cables do i need for this?????
Brilliant video again. How often would you use ceramic spray has I’ve just bought some. Many thanks
There’s no harm in doing it every wash it doesn’t take to long but it really depends how much you ride the bike!🧡⚙️
You should try out the Brunox Carbon Care spray. It gives an unreal finish. Only a tiny amount is needed, but the paint will look better than new!
Love these videos Lee, very relaxing and educational. 😀
Always our pleasure. Thanks Nye🧡⚙️
That’s a great job on the disc rotor
Thanks very much Andrew!🧡
Great video, learned a lot. I own the exact same model and I love everything about this bike but the spacers on the handle bar that keep breaking. Do you have an idea of whether or not it is possible to swap out the handle bar and stem and use the ones on the new 2023 propel models?
We couldn’t tell you. There’s so many varieties on sizes in bikes it’s down to specifics so without the bike in front of us we can’t help you. Thanks for watching!🧡⚙️
Awesome! Always a satisfying watch! What is the lubricant (type/name) you use for pivot points of derailleurs please?
We use multiple types, we did a grease guide video in the past and within a few months will be listing them on our website to watch🧡
I've just come across your channel and I love it, so satisfying to watch! One question that you've probably already been asked is - For those who don't have an ultrasonic cleaner, what's the best method to deep clean components? I have degreaser but not enough to soak stuff in so would washing up liquid or similar do the same job?
Washing up liquid and a spray degreaser works. If you have the patience a few months from now we’ll be listing the products we use on a website for you all to purchase but any degreaser spray will definitely help if you need it now🧡
Loved this 👏👏
Thanks!!🧡⚙️
you learn new things everyday, now i know there are oval chainrings.
They’re very efficient!🧡⚙️
Very glossy finish! The new owner will enjoy the miles on that Giant.
We hope they will! Thanks for watching 🧡⚙️
Great video, Can you please let me know what type of grease you use on the derailer in the syringes?
We have a store launching soon for you to be able to buy them so we’ll keep you updated in the videos not so far into the future 🧡⚙️
I do a decent job on my bikes but I really wish you can do them, always excellent.
Thanks again for all the support🧡
Rotation of the tires must’ve been tough, those tubeless GP5000 fit snug! Would love to know how those brake pad retention screws were stripped like that.
There was definitely a previous attempt on the brake pads but a fix is a fix so they’re working again now which is the main thing to us🧡
Great job guys. I notice (in every video) you never use compressed air. is there a reason for that?
We just enjoy the old fashioned way with the pump, no reason at all🧡
love those videos, I learn a lot of good practices just from watching, thanks a lot!
a couple of quick questions,
1- do you also use degreaser for dry lube? my understanding is that these are wax-based, rather than oil based, so is the traditional degreaser the right tool for the job?
2- how do you wash these micro-fibre clothes? just in a washing machine?
thanks again!
We used oil on the dry lube to make it easier to work off. And towels we usually just throw away as we go through so many. Thanks for watching and glad you enjoy the videos!🧡
I love your videos because you explain every step you are taking. I have onely one question, Do you check te BB bearings? don't they need to be service with new grease like other components of a bike?
We do check them. Often they’re absolutely fine and we save the customer the money until we feel they need doing. Thanks very much for watching 🧡
@@Bikespeeds TY, I usually service the grease every 6 months because I usually sweat a lot and during winter I do my weekdays workout on a indoor trainer. For that reason I was curious about that part of the maintenance.
Great video as always, just wondering why you never remove the pedals and clean them?
It depends on the bike but as much as we go to town on these bikes there are some places we have to draw the line on work we do for the price of the service 🧡
Would you recommend using ceramic coat on matte paint?
Definitely 🧡⚙️
Say if I wanted to thoroughly clean the goop of dry tubeless sealant, how should do it easily?
Awesome video, I love watching those who are actually passionate about their trade❤️
Forgive my ignorance but what's with the chain ring appearing to float around when rotating? I've never seen that before
That is actually a Q ring chain ring so it is an oval shape designed to optimise power output for the rider. Thanks for watching Enis!🧡⚙️
To clean the chain, can you break it and rejoin it with a chain breaker cause I read it’s gonna be more likely to break by doing so.
It is more likely to break but it can be done⚙️
on the topic of disc brakes: what are the most common causes of noisy disc brakes in your opinion?
General wear and tare, disk brakes clog up very quickly with road greases and films⚙️
Lovely job/bike
Thanks for watching!🧡⚙️
Not my type of bike but a super job as allways
We will definitely have more vintage along the way!🧡⚙️
So what type of lube do you use if it is not dry? The wet one?
Thanks for the video.
We use a wet lube in the shop 🧡
@@Bikespeeds thank you 🍀
👍
Thanks James!🧡⚙️
Exceptional job as always. Do you put your microfibre cloths in the washing machine?
If they aren’t too far gone yes!🧡
Can you drop a link to that silver chain gauge you use in all the videos? I would really love to buy one.
We are building a website, it’s a little way a way but you will be able to purchase a fair few bits from the videos soon🧡
Is the di2 battery located in the seatpost? Great vid!
Yes for this one 🧡
How many kms does it have?
where is the controling hydraulic fluid, open bearings in hubs, clean hubs and disasembled rear freehub body, headset... this is basic service no rebuild, wash parts, drivetrain parts (i dont see chainring disasembled from cranks).... but nice video ;) have a nice day
whats your experience with di2 from this generation? I had some people steering me away from used bikes with that groupset? Is this warranted?
There are always horror stories with anything. But we’ve personally not seen any problems with this generation in our shop so we couldn’t say🧡
I would be embarassed to ride and to leave my bike at the shop in that shape. Great service on the bike that will feel so different to ride after all the maintenance done... I wonder how much noise it made before the build!!
We never mind a well worn bike coming in. It always makes for a good video! Thanks for watching João!🧡⚙️
@@Bikespeeds Thats also true! Cheers!
What is the best way to clean the rotors?
RIP your hands surely? No gloves to reduce the constant grease/degreaser impact on your skin? Day in day out do you struggle with dry skin because of this? Any tips?
It’s not something I’ve had any problems with so I can’t offer any advice there 🧡
What lube do you recommend?
tell me pls, what kind of soapy water/degreaser you use on a frame?
Just regular dish soap and water 🧡
No heasdset, BB or wheel bearings service?? !
This bike was really easy to assemble th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and required very few adjustments out of the box. The wheels did not require any truing/adjustments. The frame had some small scratches, but nothing major.I did replace the seat though - the seat it came with was very uncomfortable. The tires need to be re-inflated every 4-5 days, but this appears to be quite common for the narrow 700x25 tires.Overall, in my opinion, this bike looks and rides like a much more expensive bike.
Can I get some infomation how much cost this servis ?
Check their website £50 just for bleeding brakes 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Giant bikes have the worst saddles tyres and handlebars. Having ridden 2tcrs and 1 propel I always replace those first
Great job again buddy when are you going to do a emountain bike
We honestly don’t get many in. They’re not super popular in our area but when we get one in and have the slot to film it we’ll definitely bring it to the channel⚙️
Wear gloves and safety glasses with the grinder! Only takes a second to injure your hand or worse your eyes.
If I would know a shop doing their job as great as you, I would actually give my bike to a service instead of doing everything on my own. But the prices the shops here ask for makes buying the tools cheaper and they dont do what you do.
Last time i asked shops if they service pedeals also: take them apart, clean and relube them and den adjust the preload on the bearings. Nope, they sey no time for that only swap axles of pedals and for bearings in general they dont even have loose bearing balls to renew any bearings on any bike
You can get anything done on your bike , if you got a bucket full of money to give someone
Why don't you use gloves?

Giant continues to produce a joke of an aero bike because the tcr is better anyway. And because Trek pays them to manufacture the Madone
Why is it a good idea to update firmware on Di2 ?
It isn’t always. We usually say if it isn’t broken don’t fix it but we don’t want to be downloading new button mapping onto old button software🧡
