Nicolai ION 16 - bike assembly

More at bikebook.si
Complete bike weight: 13,2 kg
Info:
This time we are assembling the new Nicolai ION16.
We start with bottom bracket.
Grease the rubber o-ring.
Grease the threads on frame and install the bottom bracket outer caps
Insert the round shaped spring and with the tool you get with bottom bracket push in the bearings.
Heavily grease the bearings and insert the safety spring.
Insert the green rubber, black cover cap and rubber o-ring.
Push the chain set axle through bottom bracket and tighten crank arm on the other side.
Before fork installation, grease the bottom of steering tube and push the crown race all the way down on the steering tube. Grease the head tube bearings on the frame to prevent access of water.
Install compression ring, rubber o-ring and cover cap. Then install spacers, stem and head set top cap. Don't forget to install star nut in steering tube. We already had this installed. How to insert star nut, check our video: "How to cut and install a new bike fork".
Cassette is Sram XX1 that means it has a thread for installation on free hub.
For derailleur installation we have to stretch it and push the lock button so it stays in the extended position.
We dismounted the shock to check how the rear triangle moves.
Installation of the rear brake calliper.
For cable routing and proper length of brake cable we have to remove the hose from the brake. You have to bleed the brakes after hose cutting.
Front brake installation. If the brake hose is bent you can fix this with unscrew the bolt on the brake for half the turn or a bit more and adjust the brake while holding the hose.
Rear derailleur house routing
Shorten the chain to the proper length. Put the chain on biggest chain ring in front and biggest cog so that ends overlap for one full link when we put them together. For measuring chain length do not route the chain trough the derailleurs.
Grease the threads of pedals and keep in mind, pedals are left and right.
For routing of reverb cable you need to have an extra hose to extend it so you can pull it through the frame.
Disconnect the reverb hose from the remote control button and attach it to the extension hose. »Red« Extension you get in reverb stealth package. Now you can push/pull the hose and install the seat post. Grease the seat post before inserting.
Secure the cables cut reverb hose to the proper length and reinstall the remote button.
At the end check that all the screws are tighten according to the torque values.

Wow! The XX1 is old. This video was in 2013 and Its still in production now

[@здравый_смысл]

Офигенное видео! Его можно смотреть часами. очень красиво снято и велосипед получился изумительно красивый. Николай это "пять"!

[@AlexeiPavlov]

Он заебал задрочкой своей..Какой-то голос как из могилы

[@dha588]

I wished my bike was that clean.

[@magisteerium132]

David Ha Well that's your own fault, lazy are.

You are working very neatly. This is my favorites bike

[@bryanthartwig6994]

[@smmusa8598]

Best presentation video from my sight...

[@silver40s14]

i absolutely love how people criticize a video but care not to make one for themselves....

[@uploadingwhenever]

most satisfying video on KZbin

[@albertoflora5402]

muinto top mesmo adorei cem nenhuma sujeira

[@BooshkiiBomb123]

I've already put together 3 bikes in my life but for whatever reason I've watched tons of videos like this all the time xD I know how to do everything so I was wondering if anybody else also does this?

[@TheUrbanPsycho1989]

I don't use the special bike grease, i used grease that we have at my auto shop. ones used for lubricating tie rods and axels.

[@BooshkiiBomb123]

TheUrbanPsycho Thats what I use too and to be honest I'd rather use this one blue grease tht my dad buys, Its is supposed to flush things out and its more water resistant.

[@myjpkl]

I wanted to DIY a bike, but afraid of compatibility such as size mismatch!.. Pls advice, are all part standard size?

[@BooshkiiBomb123]

Joe Pow a lot of pro parts are compatible from road bike to road bike, bmx to bmx and mtn to mtn, unless you have a generic walmart brand; then you might have some issues but probably nothing you wont be able to work around. you also have to know what crank size you want, bar length, sort of bearings, and gear ratios, sort of breaks, pads, levers, and stuff like that. Everything that i have ever put on my bike or anybody elses for that matter have fit though. You shouldn't have a problem other than money if you're building your own bike. My advice for that though is buy your frame and rims first and make sure they are good quality, depending on what riding style you partake in you will be able to cheap out on some parts until you're able to afford good ones, such as grips, pedals, sprokets, cranks and stuff. Butt if you have any more questions please ask, i wouldn't have taken the time to write this if I wouldn't help.

[@crazysandwich]

TheUrbanPsycho I work in a bike shop, and we dont use bike specific grease lol This is pretty much just some marketing trick to make you pay more for the same stuff. Where i work, we use Motorex grease 2000 (motorcycle stuff) and some wurth white grease too.

[@javierfrancoruiz9482]

que bicicleta tan impresionante saludos

[@skulj007]

I have to say ... the stuff that impressed me the most (apart from the 'frame') is the XX1. Ok, it is expensive and I can't say anything about reliability yet, but for my type of riding it is almost perfect. If only SRAM would make a smaller chainring so I wouldn't have to wait for a custom one. :-)

[@dhoom4824]

The cat on your T-shirt very funny 😂

[@rickschris4073]

me encantan estos videos

[@moritzkuchenreuther6130]

Could you please tell me the name of the grease for the fork, i have not seen it?

[@canyonyellowstone]

nice! close to my dreambike I would prefer a RS Pike or Lyrik, use XT/XTR brakes and my main criticism: Flow EX instead of the Arch EX Rims!!!

[@mischavroomans4266]

what bb and head set did you use?

[@lleresche]

What bottom bracket are you using for that bike? I liked it, could you provide to me the model and brand?

[@basesku]

What about using silicon grease? Is it ok for bikes?

[@renekonig8893]

Are you sure that you don't need a spacer at the drive side? The manual says no, but by experience is that there is one spacer needed.

[@BenfleetCycling]
