2021 Domane upgrades part 2

  • 3 years ago
Hi guys welcome to the 2nd video in the 2021 Domane build. In this episode I install a number of new components as the budget allowed and deals came up. If you want to skip to the finished project so far it’s at 9:10​. Parts in no particular order are as follows.

-Supacaz cages I had these already and just repainted them.
-Chinese oilslick rotors 160 from aliexpress, not bad but the surface is really coarse this may wear the pads down fast, I’m hoping it mellows out with use.
-Bontrager oilslick pedals
-Bontrager integrated tool, very light but not much leverage, so it’s an emergency tool at best.
-DIY Carbon Bikes wheelset – not recommended as they sent the wrong end caps and it was a major hassle.
-Vittoria corsa tubeless 28mm with stans tape and sealant
-Dura-ace crankset 165mm
-Supacaz reflective oilslick tape
-Bontrager xxx paradigm saddle (ebay special) and xxx carbon stem (craigslist)

Yes the orange crank booties are silly looking but I have a lot of concrete steps to go up and down.
Also I know the handlebar is a bit unproportional, but it fits really well and is comfortable.

So far I'm very happy with the fit and feel of the bike for someone like me who is not very flexible or able to get into a very aero position.
