Thanks for sharing this video🎉

Yes, much better layout of the studio space. RockBros products are staples here in the US, always well made and reasonably priced.

Trying the baggie technique asap. Great video

Size matters - his new machine is more powerful than the older (smaller) machine [13:13].

Great new setup

Thanks for your sharing !!! #ROCKBROS #ROADTOSKY

How is the reach adjustment (screw). Can you increase the reach a lot?

I always enjoy your informative videos!

Great video, i ride both dura ace di2 and latest ultegra mechanical. The di2 is fun and smooth especially when in a steep climb. But i suffer from dead battery anxiety. The ultegra group set is excellent but as you point out under load its just a bit marginally slower to complete the shift. But oh so marginal

Great great tutorial 🎉❤

I have a Turkey gobble noise when I apply disc brakes on my bike ......how do zinc fix it

This isn't about "electronic" shifting, it's about "Di2" shifting. SRAM's "etap axs" shifting eliminates many/most of your objections. One other thing... Those who say they've never had a mechanical cable break are either a) not riding very much, or b) lying.

Fun video. I've been thinking about making a removable counter in my bike shop for videos as well. I'd love to do more videos in the bike shop instead of the studio.

The RapiLock system is similar to what Pinarello uses on their bikes. I have never understood why you would want to run anything different from a system like this. If my stock Pinarello axels ever need replacing, these will absolutely be what I go with.

Like the new set up 👍

Time to save money for this bike!

Good format and reviews. Keep it up.👍

The RockBros handlebar lock actually looks fantastically useful. Clearly designed for a coffee stop where the main thing is to stop someone being able to just walk off with the bike. BUT: does it rattle in the bar? Especially on gravel/rough roads?

Some new bikes are available with electronic shifting only. So there is not really a choice. Also, if you get a bike with a leasing model like „lease a bike“ or any other bike leasing service connected with your employer, you sometimes have to choose the premium service package that often comes with the best insurance option (also sometimes no choice here as well to get a cheaper option with less service) Also here, it’s no problem to get electric shifting because if something gets broken, the service is already covered. If you just privately buy a bike and also have the option between mechanical and electronic it’s probably most suitable (financially) to go with mechanical.

Rockbros is knockoff garbage that is killing the industry.

one and only device. you don't need to remove sealant.

Ive never been disappointed by Rockbros!

Rock Bros bag looks like Zippy !!! Gorilla pad are just awesome and my go to company. I use the ceramic ones and they bite like badger on steroids and bite harder as they get hotter.

Great Video John. Love your content… thank you

As a fellow Dolan rider it’s nice to see one on the channel.

Great title!

Set up is certainly more professional

Good vid.

How you supposed to torque the thru axle

Liked the new counter and the product review content. Missed the usual arm waving and pointing though, you will never please everyone 🤣

Excellent video!, just what I needed. Can you also make a video about servicing/changing the bearings of the pivots in an MTB bike please?

Like the new counter layout. Some really interesting product reviewed too. Keep up the good work.

Pump needs a gauge

Thanks for the demonstration of the interesting gadgets!

I just love the axles I don’t need them but I’m getting some. I just love the engineering of them cheers👍

Regard the Gorrila brake pads, Usable brake pad material appears less, due to lip of the holder compared to a brake pad on a flat surface. Can you address?

Keep doing it in your style John, good content.

Fabulous content!!!! Love the counter! Loved it without the counter!.... keep filming! Ribble valley is a long way from Texas! Lucky you!

I have to admit, I like the style of your vids and your gestures 😎

The axle product seems a good idea. I bought a planetx frame which didn’t have a rear axle. I spotted that Ribble bikes sold the axle but they wouldn’t sell me one as I didn’t have one of their bikes. Managed to get one from planetx in the end. So for that reason I could see it being helpful. It’s also the reason I will never own a ribble bike and they missed out on my last two bike purchases.

I got my throw axel 5 years ago from AliExpress, still works perfectly on my MTB, only cost 15£ each.

This thru axle thing feels like too much faff. And it's not really all that light. Just measure your old axle and order exactly the same but without any locking attachement. Even when riding without multitool surely place for a single small allen key can be found.

wtf that's awesome

The bolt cutters you showed would not be very good at cutting that cable, for stainless cables you specifically need steel wire cable cutter 😂

Which out front Garmin mount do you use please ? Thanks, Tim

Nice video Jon, got a email about that groupset, said happy to review but don’t have a bike for it to go on yet, but would be happy to look at it. Just waiting to hear back 😊

Doing the Ribble Valley Ride Expert route, I've done over 100 miles before but never 1900m of climbing. It was boiling last year when I did the 50 and the climb out of Malham was an absolute killer. Trying this year to fuel a bit better (mainly carb loading, sugar water rather than pure caffeine last year). I just wish the gpx files were out so I could plan a bit better.

The disc pads are the Best System product imo i have see thus far , THE RECYCLING but built in incentive by a discount , THANK you , This Video was Great

Beautifully explained in detail! Superb guide! Saved for reference! Thank you!

Great channel. I love it. For a bolt do I need any special grease to prevent galvanization corosion?
