They look like from a sports car right?

Where do you see any Campagnolo on this bike? Campy and Shimano are totally incompatible to each other.

One of the better-looking for sure.

Integrated câbles. ....nightmare

May save the rider half a Watt, but takes the mechanics a shitload of Watts and all their ability to deal with frustration. All-internal hose/cable routing is most likely the most stupid trend in cycling technology in the last 30 years, eve more stupid than integrated seatposts and behind-the-bottom bracket rear brakes.

... with * carbon spokes. A single spoke can't support a wheel.

From what I have heard some mechanics like to leave a little chimney because they think that clamping the stem too close to the cut of the steerer tube is a little bit insecure (less rigidity or something). So they leave a little chimney for safety reasons.

You consider such a tiny, little spacer a "chimney"? You always, always (!) put a 5-mm spacer atop the stem for safety.

Needed? - no. Is it easier? Yeah 😉

road bike channel and also more complicated... I stick to the good old rims with no integration. but sooner or later.... 🤷🏻‍♂️

You can't deny it doesn't look good 😀 but it's definitely not a job you wanna do every other week on your bike 🙈

Wait until you see a BMC Road fork/stem install including cabled. Five man job.

@@roadbikechannel Two mechanics make things faster and easier on every bike. Fact is, total integration is a mess even for skilled mechanics. It's totally silly for normal consumers who need to be able to do some maintenance on their own.

Truer words have never been written! Great minds think alike!

... and probably even more because of the silly amount of internal cable routing.

Normal with the longer valves.

Those are CeramicSpeed pulleys.

The only thing Italian about this is the location of Wilier's head quarters. The frame and finishing kit are made in Taiwan, the groupset in Japan and the wheels in France.

@@einundsiebenziger5488 Mh, ok... more or less, like all the frame in the world? Nothing new. The brand, however, is based in Italy, as well as the concept and the design behind this project which is not such a small thing.

Wilier*

Ask Wilier, they'll tell you.

@@einundsiebenziger5488 no they won’t...😔

There is an expander in the fork with a clamping mechanism to tighten the haeadset: 2:26

Because routing all those cables and hoses takes up most of the time.

No, if you look closly at the frame and fork you can see the opening for the axle at the non drive side of the frame 0:10 and on the dive side of the fork 0:32 . It's a quick release system witch allows a easier and faster wheel chance with the axles remaining in the hubs.

@@roadbikechannel cool! didnt notice at all, thanks for the info! :)

Large (56)

@@mgrization whats the height of the rider

@@tobyt684 Fulgsang is 181cm. Going for a large my self. im 185cm

The "high room" problem is mostly due to the lights we bring to the different locations. You can see them at 11:09 🤫 And they work together simply because its easier and faster, why should they make the job any harder by doing it alone when there is a college standing right there 😃 But yeah, we get your point...😅 it's not getting easier with integration🙈

road bike channel I’m only joking 🙃 for every problem is a solution !! And yes for privat people like me is hard to work on a bike like this! If there was a second bike for all how like to pimp the bikes like me ! That Ware a great thing !

BMC was the first to use dropped seat stays on their frames. A few years later some followed, and now everybody does it. Serves no purpose other than looking stupid.

There would be other unnecessary new gimmicks in a couple yrs to motivate customers for new bikes

I think it looks damn clean! Shit for the mechanics but I don't care...

@@Dramboli it does look super clean and neat, just a nightmare to adjust stem spacer or change stem/cables

@@Dramboli You know that if you're not a pro, you have to pay your own mechanics, don't you? For every hour they have to mess with your brake hoses and shift wires they have to charge you extra 60 to 100 quid/bucks.

@@einundsiebenziger5488 yes sure it may cost you extra, but normally you won‘t make a lot of adjustments on the cockpit if you know your measurements or get a good bike fit. Anyway it will be going to full integration, even starts on gravel bikes now. Some people like it and some don’t, same for the rim/disc brake debatte or tubular/tubeless/clincher.

Yeah & double & even tripple clicking the torque, i thought that was frowned upon?

@@Jeppelelle I frankly don't think that makes too much, if any difference....

You just have to be patient, there are still a few out there 😀

Colnago v3rs? But even a weekend rider like me enjoyed the willier on a test ride. Lovely bike, resonsive but not too jittery for Italian roads

Fastest milkman 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

well worth it. Cables in 2020 are ugly as hell.

Astana is sponsored by Shimano. And Wilier's frames are made in a place much closer to Japan than Italy.

That's how you wrap a handlebar, because you grab it on the flat section, too.

@@einundsiebenziger5488 aero bars lose aero advantage when you wrap them with bartapes on top. Check wind tunnel tests to verify this, you will find sufficient enough info. Either use regular bar and wrap all the way up, or if you use aero bar, wrap up until tops

Hi, what is bb and RD? Where are the 310g coming from? How can I spot here that the wheel is not balanced? Thx!

@@echnaton123 Hi, bb = bottom bracket. From the number of free rotations, it seems like they use standard bottom bracket bearings. While those are pretty good, I feel going ceramic (or at least as friction-free as possible - mind you: most friction is in the seals, not dependent on the material of the bearings or ball races) would definitely be an upgrade if only for the 'feel' when pedalling. The gain would be around 5-10 watts going ceramic (or seal-free would also do that, but ofcourse takes lots of maintenance). About the RD (rear derailleur): current Dura-ace has the option to mount it by the direct hanger, but they don't do that here for some reason (maybe Wilier doesn't have one). Main advantage is improved stiffness (you have one pivot point less: the direct mount RD is specifically designed to be in a better position (for wheel changes and to keep the chain better on the cogs) and to be stiffer, but if you don't take advantage of this by still using the B-link, it's a pity. The wheel is not balanced as you can see around 8:09 . (the bike is jumping up and down). In practice you won't notice this too much unless going at very high speeds. As far as I can see, the tires / tubulars don't show a bulb, which is actually far worse than some inbalance, and occurs more than you would wish on pro bikes. Lastly, the 310 gram (actually 315, but it's better to keep some margin!) is what could be shaved of to reach the UCI minimum weight of 6.8kg. This bike is now 7.15, so it has the potential to be around 300-310 gram lighter, which is a free weight saving for the rider, if only they would manage to design the bike to be as performant but a bit lighter. They use a hell of a lot mounting paste, by the way.

L. D.T. Wow, thank you very much for taking the time to write this long answer. I really learnt something!

@@l.d.t.6327 You're missing the point of this build.......its a pro bike 🤷‍♂️ don't they change the bar tape after every stage??? and as for not having a ceramic bb 😅 I wouldn't waste my money on such a snake oil product!!! Steel bearings are best for bikes even pro ones 👍

@@nickjohnson710 honestly, I don't know how often they replace bartape these days. Especially if it's black I think they keep it on longer and wash the bikes, and that's it. A good steel BB should perform very well. The problem is these days that seals, bad tolerances and bad installation destroy BB in no-time. Every little bit in this area helps, until we go back to one-piece cartridge systems or cup-cone. Side loads are simply not managed very well with modern-day BB.

A bit too high for a pro, no?

And speak Italian! 😉

Do you mean "integration is the worst (idea in cycling) ever"? Then, I'd agree.
