I'm a bike mechanic and I absolutely agree about internal routing. External is the way to go

Dream build doesn't have to be expansive. *uses epic carbon frameset*

Duh, he’s showing that you can get a good bike for cheap. Just because the frame is carbon doesn’t mean the bike costs a million dollars.

I have seen this video several times since it was launched. I think it is a brilliant build and perfect for most people getting into racing

[@raflucique]

Beautiful bike! I'm using this model 3 years now and it never let me down. It's time no make a good service so thanks you for this video!

[@DilbertMuc]

Danny, always use a heat gun to remove the stickers, never use the knife on the paint but a dull plastic tool. Thus you avoid scratches on the Paint Job. 🤓👆

[@Goodman-4525]

Thank for reminding me why I bought a Santa Cruz Chameleon instead of a Epic😂

[@bddorling]

I was impressed how you were able to route the hose through the foam insulation via the bottom bracket!

[@silver_c1oud]

Sorry But I Love Inner Cable Routing, no matter what people says. id rather go thru all that Hassle just to have a clean looking Bike over a messy looking bike simply because there is no cable routing its clean and Neat.

[@tristandesade8635]

WATCHING THOSE BIG BLUE BRUSHES WORKING THROUGH THE FRAME IS EXTREMELY SATISFYING🤩

[@HeathenRides]

You should get New sticker's on because that's a carbon frame and will get a lot of tiny crack's very easily but the stickers can prevent that from happened so you don't get that spider web pattern micro cracks on your frame,,, those crack's is usually just the paint and comes because carbon fiber frames can get vibrations and through it's micro flexibility

[@EfficientMan]

06:52-07:10 In the video: all works fine with pleasant music, reality: SWEARING!

[@danwerkman]

Very cool build. That internal rear brake routing is crazy. I would have sleepless nights thinking about a open pipe going up into a frame scooping up dust and fibers as it goes. Some relief came from the fact that you have to trim the end off. I would have no issue buying a second had bike from you. Nice attention to detail...keep the cool content coming.

[@mattlyone3147]

Great video and great job on the bike. I have started doing my own maintenance and repairs after watching your videos. Thank you very much for the hard work you do on your videos.

[@christiantabangay3202]

Yes my dream build is a bmxand i didnt spena thousand on it i only spent 500 pesos here in Philippines and i love what i ride its not about the price its about how i love and appreciate my build

[@telposh]

I think that shifter cable went out, on the derailleur, on the wrong direction , because the natural way out on the cable coming from the housing, is straight to the direction you placed the way out. And could work, but not properly, I had the same event in different conditions but when It's right, it's kind of magic. By the way I love your videos because we have the same taste for doing thing by our own. CHEERS!!!

[@maxkopfraum]

Great video. The title made me curious about the overall cost of this build. In the end I realised that commenting on cost would be difficult, however, because it varies so much for each of us.

[@renrenzallaround1118]

Thank you for this wonderful video sir. I really enjoy watching it especially the tutorials you make. The best! I'm your no.1 fan here in the Philippines. 🇵🇭

Putting carbon paste on the seat post is really good idea. Aluminum can still galvanically weld itself to carbon if it gets enough water and time.

[@Fred_the_1996]

True

[@Carftymk]

i would love to see a video of what you would come up with if you had to build bikes with certain budgets

[@marktechsci]

Not reading all, but for pinch bolts you are correct. Work through them all until you get no more “clicks” for exactly the reason you stated. You may have overtorqued the crank preload though…. 🙂

[@BrianRPaterson]

I agree. Internal routing sucks. Especially when it comes to hydraulic brakes, where it's a major PITA. I prefer the old-school external routing, which I am happy to see is coming back, at least on some hardtails. Thanks for the entertaining and informative video. Cheers

[@LegoEddy]

Could you explain this a bit? I am currently buying a new bike and so far thought internal routing a good thing, since I hope it's easier to clean the frame and keep the wires non dirty. Thansk :)

[@BrianRPaterson]

​@@LegoEddy Sure. External routing can give you a nice looking bike that may be a bit easier to clean. When I say PITA, I'm talking specifically about hydraulic brakes. The front brake is no problem. But, to fit the rear brake you have to take off the caliper or lever to get the hose into the frame. That means doing it before you fill the system with oil, or else draining the system, taking off the caliper, then refitting it. After that, you have to add oil and bleed out the air. It all takes time, some knowledge and skill, and can be messy. Conversely, I recently swapped some hydraulic brakes between two of our bikes with external frame routing. None of that draining/refilling or bleeding was necessary. Just undo the bolts, cut a few zip ties that keep the hoses in place on the frame, and re-mount everything on the other bike. Easy peasy. If you do maintenance on your bike, or manage a family fleet (we've got 5 bikes), then external routing seems like the best way to go. I wouldn't necessarily avoid a bike with internal brake routing, but my preference is for external because it's less hassle. Note: The HARDTAIL PARTY KZbin channel just reviewed the "Sour Crumble" -- a new German steel hardtail that comes with internal and external routing. He said he was going to fit his brakes externally to avoid the hassle. Check it out. I hope I got all that right. Live long and keep riding!

[@joegomes1352]

I've never seen a bike with all them clear stickers, cool

[@thesausage351]

Great video man! I don’t have a lot of money and I’ve managed to buy or build some very nice bikes that I would otherwise never own. I just bought a nearly immaculate Giant Thermo 1 for $150aud, so for less than a department store bike, I got a 5yo, 24sp, disc brake, modern frame with front suspension that was one owner and just perfect. I own a lot of old bikes I’ve built up into daily riders, and I also bought an Australian made Speedwell Flash 500 5 speed road bicycle for $150 and this bike is in excellent condition, I added some caged pedals and a comfy saddle, and it is definitely one of my favourite bikes that is about 40 years old, but still performs well enough that it can be used when ever I want.

[@davegee124]

you should warm the stickers up with a heatgun or hairdrier first as it softens the glue and comes off very easy then

[@juntatang759]

THAT'S AWESOME ! THANKS FOR SHARING AND SEE YOU ON YOUR NEXT VIDS .

[@downallyourstreets]

7:56 - I feel your frustration, that internal routing on the Epic is designed like an afterthought. The 2021 Cannon. F-si has a removable internal housing router for so you don’t need the surgical tools, top engineering solve. With certain parts you can internalize the housing thru the handlebars and stem for an amazingly clean looking bike with not much visible tubing.

[@SweatLaserXP]

If you put a hairdryer on those clear stickers, it's much easier to remove them as the adhesive softens up like crazy

[@ironman_gee]

[@jcsrst]

I hated to watch you struggling with that brake cable routing, is there a reason you couldn't use a tool like the park tool internal cable routing set? Plenty of great tips! Love the Milkit tubeless kit. I like the "real world" build, thanks!

[@LEOSLIM84]

I use a sewing line with a nail and a magnet to route lines through the frame it is way easier

[@DilbertMuc]

Absolutely. And then a shifting cable first attached to the cotton line as a guide. Then the brake or shifting housing using the cable which then can be removed. Takes 5 minutes.

[@pepeanza6187]

Beatiful frame great build, i think it would be more versatile to use 2x in the front i know it don't look as cool as 1x but You can have more range and use the bike for Road gravel rides thats what i have in My stumpjumper ht

Great video! Thanks for the informations. Always a pleasure to watch.

Try a vintage restore say 10 or 12 years old deore is relatively inexpensive and a lot of older hi end mtb were using Deore as a quality ,fairly inexpensive group set. im working on a 2000gf tassajara factory it was equipped w bontrager and Deore components and im in it only 500.00...thats 150.00 for the bike 220 for 3x9 cranks and cassetteand 145.00 in tires...o and 30.00 for a nickle chain

well technically 13,758.94 United States Dollar is 1 million russian ruble. and there is some mountain bikes out there that cost that much. like a wheelbarrow full

In the future, try using isopropyl alcohol to clean the bike. It is MUCH better for cleaning everything on your bike.
