Love the color orange🧡

[@patthecat6491]

I have 2019 Emonda SLR-8 Project One disc bike and it's an awesome ride. One of the best bike purchases I've ever made.

[@christiankrarup6992]

Nice to know that the Camera guy is breathing

[@jcsrst]

HAHAHA!!! I never should have looked at the comments first 🤣

[@hermanpepper3623]

AWESOME!

[@山田太郎-n2n1p]

good color bike

[@darthjokobo]

Great video guys!

[@user-yc6xn5ze6h]

The title should be called Trek Emonda ASMR :^ )

[@nowisthetime12]

tightening stem bolts all the up to torque spec instead of rotational tightening?

[@HolmsOnBikes]

I absolutely love these videos, and you guys do it better than anybody I've seen. But that breathing up close into the mic drove me freakin nuts 😵😵😵😵😵😵. Lol.

[@peterverlinde5421]

WOW!

[@JonLeonardF10]

What’s the background music? It’s so soothing, it’s like descending after climbing a steep mountain on a road bike.

[@zbchen1104]

Can you guys do more road bike builds

[@kppriest]

Great video. What brand torque wrench are you using?

[@trizvanov]

When tightening stem bolts, it is a good idea to do them in x-cross fashion, while slowly increasing the torque. That way, the torque is distributed evenly and there is less chance of denting the handlebar.

[@summitbicycles]

thanks for the tip

[@jmathieud]

I just went from 6 to midnight boys!

[@OmarTan]

What’s the weight of this bad boy? And did Trek update the 2020 model? As now SLR only comes with discs and I don’t recall seeing the external routed fork cables anymore

[@vijaykrishnan2520]

Free wheel sound

[@shashiekka7917]

This bike was really easy to assemble kzbin.infoUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA 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.

[@bombaro2001]

from where I can buy the tool from the minute 1:34 ?

[@flatorange]

Great video, any idea what camera this was shot on?

[@summitbicycles]

Sony a7 III

[@mathewmccarty5157]

But this is not normal bike mechanic this guy is calm and taking his time to do it correct most shops just slap em together n out the door you go n have to come back a few times

[@summitbicycles]

When building a higher end bike that has a lot tighter tolerances than say your sub $1000 we have to take extra time and care when building all of them. We encourage our mechanics to take the time it needs to do the job well.

[@BikeLife154]

So expensive and you have to cable tie the front brake hosing to the fork! It’s laughable! Good one Trek!

[@Stefanosinf]

It should been fork internal at least.

[@IVANmarurimirandagmailcom]

La verdad, para mi gusto, es una bici de gama alta, no debería llevar el cable del disco delantero por fuera de la tija y con sinchos de plástico. de ese nivel de bici ya viene ocultos todos los cables.

[@lemansteve]

I am disturbed by the lack of torque wrench

[@njm3211]

A little more work on the lighting. Difficult to watch.

[@summitbicycles]

Thanks for the tip, we are learning as we go along and produce more videos

[@briancaday6469]

Yes a little too dark to watch

[@summitbicycles]

Yes our lighting was not optimal on this video. We are learning with each one we produce. Thanks for watching and for the comment!

[@vijaykrishnan2520]

Someone breathing mad hard

[@MrGichinfunakoshi]

Coronavirus?

[@summitbicycles]

yeah the audio amplified that on this one. We seemed to have rectified the issue in our newer videos. thanks

[@summitbicycles]

Nobody got sick from the making of this film. You'll also notice the May 2019 posting date.

[@MrGichinfunakoshi]

Hallo

[@summitbicycles]

hi

[@Rafiki506VaDeRide]

Send to me, Please!!!! Costa Rica!!! : ) ; )

[@jamethogany]

very underexposed... try editing with your monitor backlight turned down....

[@balzatulvonlemberg7899]

Cameraman don't breathe!

[@jcsrst]

Or at least not through your mouth.

[@Dan1147]

BREATHING

[@RZ1402]

I didn’t see him use carbon assembly paste or any grease for metal on metal parts...yikes

[@summitbicycles]

We generally have 1-2 hours of raw footage for each of thee builds. Just because a specific step wasn't included in the video doesn't mean it did not happen. We have been building high end bikes for a long time and are well versed in what is required to properly put them together. Thanks for your concern

[@johnpoulter6717]

Trek made in China?

[@summitbicycles]

most is made overseas but select high end items are made in Wisconsin

[@sonnyfung5135]

Carbon grease, gloves always on, and use torque wrench wherever possible, please.

[@charlesherrington2694]

Thank god a torque wrench

[@darrylroberts7260]

I can understand cable ties on an MTB (still think they are ugly) but on a road bike? Delivering a product that doesn't have something a bit more sophisticated for a supposedly high end bike is quite poor. Nice build though.

[@inspktr51]

What was this video about?? I didn’t see nothing, have to pay the electrical bill, stop using candles

[@tomasherrerocalleja3104]

the disc cord out of the fork? Trully? The video is amazing, but this detail sucks.
