As a Chinese user who have two sets of these, I'd like to share something you need to pay attention. The water proofing for shifter is not good, so if your shifter's battery starts to drop fast, it maybe there water comes in and you may need to find your own way to fix it. Also, Check your charging port cover on the rear derailleur, it requires some attention and force to fully sitted.

@DaveNoakes 27 дней назад

Hiya, thanks for the tips. I noticed this on the rear charging port when I got in from my ride. I’ve actually put a bit of tape on there to keep it sealed.

@johnnyboy4711 День назад

as once famously said,if you need the vise grip- were in trouble! nice build!

Easiest way to put a barb in

@DAZLIN6 29 дней назад

Ali express has a hydralic hose and barb installer super cheap. Brand is Risk and it makes doing brakes much easier.

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

Oh cool, I’ll check that out. 👍🏼

@cb6866 29 дней назад

Thanks Dave ...looks really cool !! Good luck on the test ride ...

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

Thanks mate.

@vsandu 28 дней назад

Cheers! i've ordered the rim brake version, can't wait to get my hands on it.

@DaveNoakes 27 дней назад

Ohhh let me know how the brakes are!

@markjthomson 27 дней назад

That looks awesome Dave!

@DaveNoakes 27 дней назад

Thank you

@nickpatten5263 29 дней назад

Looks awesome, nice job. Unique frame colour and some interesting parts. Be great to hear and see how it rides. Another interesting video, thanks Dave.

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

Thank you, I’m happy with the build. Went for a ride yesterday and still need to work out the fine adjustment on the gears but first impressions are very good.

@Molly11ross 29 дней назад

I bought that bar tape too - does the job and looks good.

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

Very true, feels really nice as well.

@n22pdf 29 дней назад

Looking great Dave I just watched another vid on the Wheeltop wireless group set pretty impressive.. be great to see how you get on with it dude 😊 🚴🏻💪 Pete

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

Thanks Pete, it’s definitely not as straight forward to set up as the sram or shimano…but then there’s a lot you can tweak with the app…it’s just working out how it all works 😂

@yonglingng5640 28 дней назад

Completely off-topic: Nice to see a first-generation Allez Sprint on the Internet in the 2020s.

@DaveNoakes 28 дней назад

I think this is the 2019 one…is the 2024 model any different?

@yonglingng5640 27 дней назад

@@DaveNoakes The disc brake counterpart of the first-generation Allez Sprint was available from 2019 - 2021 model years. Since the 2022 model year, it became the second-generation, to which it's disc-only, runs headset internal routing and is practically an aluminium version of the Tarmac SL7 (same fork, seatpost & headset bearings, very similar geometry, but not identical).

@DaveNoakes 27 дней назад

Ahhhh I see. So the only difference is the routing? I do love the look of internal cables but hate having to work on it 😂

@chrisjames1924 27 дней назад

It's practically a penny farthing

@iphone4toto445 29 дней назад

Hello Dave, thank you for this interesting video😉. I'm looking forward to your first impressions of the test drive. I have already pre-ordered a unit. Greetings from Germany 🙋🏼‍♂️

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

Hiya, first ride I needed to tweak it slightly…it does need some more refinement…I just have to work out how the app works etc. not as straightforward to set up as sram but I think the adjustability complicates things slightly.

@markrobinson1458 29 дней назад

It's looking good, id certainly give it a go, I've got etap and since installing in 2018, I've had one issue, one of my batteries snapped where it seats in the holder, but it was replaced on warranty, its faultless. I'll look into that for my old Norco Search, which hasn't been my best purchase by a country mile. 👍

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

I’ve also been using the older etap and love it. If this works I’ll be getting rid of the bike with etap on it.

@Steven-Sea_gull 27 дней назад

Been using the super Caz knock-off tape for over a year it's brilliant gripy in the wet also 👍. Great content as always Dave

@DaveNoakes 27 дней назад

I’m dead impressed. Makes me realise how much of a rip off the real one is.

@jbrew44 29 дней назад

I have been using the same bar tape. Definitely a good buy.

@Dustydayzz 29 дней назад

me too lol...however rewrapping can be hard because it does peel off the top layer while unwrapping

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

Sure is

@domenstraser7326 26 дней назад

What bar tape you use? Can we get link?

@JohnSmith-ox7xc 29 дней назад

Where did you get the double chainring from? I find these hard to search for as 1x rings seem to be the norm.

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

AliExpress. It’s the race works one, it comes with the chainrings.

@JohnSmith-ox7xc 27 дней назад

@@DaveNoakes Thanks. Was hoping they could offer double chainrings for mtbs.

@PaulTheCyclist. 28 дней назад

Could you use the Shimano brakes with the wheeltop shifters?

@mazhoace 27 дней назад

yes you can

@DaveNoakes 27 дней назад

Apparently so…I’ve seen a couple of videos where people have. Although as the groupset includes brakes I’d just use those to be all matchy.

@mazhoace 27 дней назад

@@DaveNoakes I use Shimano calipers with wheeltop levers, works flawlessly

@mazhoace 27 дней назад

Hi Dave. Do you have link to that bar tape? thanks

How do you work the app if it's all in chinese?

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

It’s in English but not the best translation. There’s also less detail, it’s doable but takes a bit of trial and error.

@rothaicc 26 дней назад

Ha Ha - as soon as you said set up Disc brakes the we can see the realisation on your face of a pain in the balls job

@DaveNoakes 25 дней назад

😂 and surprisingly it was quite easy.

@PedroSilva-dm4bo 29 дней назад

Cheap?

@DaveNoakes 29 дней назад

Groupset is £700 compared to sram red at £4700, crank is £50…cheap compared to other brands…bars…£35 cheap compared to other brands. Tape…£3 compared to £30….chain £18 compared to £40…yes this is a cheaper build.
