@@ridesofjapan well, wow! Without blowing smoke, you sincerely have a real talent at the film making and aesthetic components of these videos. Looking forward to seeing the next instalment!
@@ridesofjapan Ha! I thought so too - that you are a film maker or a camera operator. Well then, I'm curious, what do you do for living and how do you manage to find time for riding and servicing your bikes!? Maybe it's a good idea to make a video about it? Of course it's a private matter, so it's fully understandable if you don't whant to share this kind of info on the channel. Anyway, thanks a lot for your great videos!
You keep us waiting, but you always deliver amazing videos. Content, editing and personality. And your attention to detail from lightning to clothing makes it artistic. Bravo!
Arundel Mandible... indeed the best cage available! Light weight, yes, but their true superpower is holding the bottle securely; never lose another bottle regardless of how bumpy the ride is.
I also use left hand rear brake and right hand front. Back in the days motorcycling almost everyday testing bikes and going to work on bicycle so this arrangement avoided many mishaps.
Newer subscriber and RU-vid content creator. Your videos from an editing point of view are outstanding! Great lighting, audio and content. I LOVE your use of motion graphics and appropriate sound effects. *Question* Are you using Premiere for the editing or something else? Please keep producing these amazing videos.
How about a computer mount? I might have missed it, but it's supposed to be included for the complete bike weight. Besides that, looking forward to the build, frame looks awesome, your buddy has a great taste!
After this one, i would really enjoy to see you build up a very light aluminium road bine. Of course, rim break is a must. Scavenging some second hand groupsets probably is needed. Thanks for the content! All the best.
The 8100 wheel-set you hinting come with valves. The ones you showing are way too long. Bike looks awesome. You are an amazing builder. Your friend is lucky to have your build this awesome looking machine.
Beautiful video (As always) , nice looking bike. From the packing and from what I saw I guess the bike comes from the same factory as a Factor or my SEKA bike . Love your content , pls continue with this high level of production. 🫰🏼✌🏼
Sooo my guess is Beast RX60 but 60mm is a rather odd choice for the kind of riding you guys are doing Glad to see you further spreading the ways of german carbon 🍻
Very nice build. I was expecting the frame to be quite lighter given that is supposed to be a non-aero climbing bike, but looks very nice, so it's marginally ok
Do you think/expect a water and a crap from the road entering the frame though the top cap at 4:26 ? I'm sure t won't drastic, but I wonder if this could be improved somehow. BTW great video, as always!
Since both me and Darragh are fair weather riders it doesn’t worry me. Only thing it would change for me is to be more careful when washing the bike. Cheers!
RoJ is ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How are the LB rims holding? Got mine since September but since they are on the Gravel\Training bike and its been sunny here in Europe I havent done much km on them... They look prime though with the shiny gloss paintjob!
@@ridesofjapan I've also asked in the other video. Did you notice any difference between the Ultegra and Dura Ace? Gear shift quality, performance? Build quality?
Hi Tobias, thank you for you videos. They pushes me to build a bike from scratch. You've mentioned this frame wad on your list, could you please share hownyou list of recommended/considered frames looks like? Thank you!
There’s no list… but back then I had a few specific things I wanted. 1. Internal cable routing (that still allowed be to use my own stem). 2. Reasonable weigh (~800g) 3. No dropped seatstays. 4. Standard seatpost. 5. Nice color. The Aurum ticked all the boxes except no5 back then before the white was released, and they where not shipping here it internationally at that time. So trek emonda was the other option only missing the standard seatpost, but that was a compromise I was willing to make.
Great video. BTW, can you tell me what kind of microphone set up you are using there clipped on to your collar which I saw you with in the Token Ninja BB install video?
Curious. What camera and lens do you use? The cinematography is so smooth. I'm more of a photographer (canon 5dmkiii), but want to get into video making like this too!
I’m on a Sony system with 20, 35 and 80mm lenses. But as you probably heard before… what camera you have have doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things. A 5d will do the job just fine! 👍
I share a riding territory with Alberto C, so I see these all the time and they do look really nice, despite (or maybe because of) no aero gubbins etc...he himself is riding a black one with golden lettering at the moment...a little bit too oligarch style for my taste but definitely a looker...
