Awesome!
Titanium's nice but so expensive, for me anyway.
Beautiful bike. Congrats on this. Do you maybe remember what the weight of the pure frame has been?
Charlie is 100% right – Customer Service is everything
Wow ! Incredible looking Strong horse Keira.
Heard somewhere David Guetta has a stable full !
Reckon it still "clogs up" though, stubbornly refusing to move, at the Unbound "Crunchy peanut butter" sections !
Stunning bike. Like handle bars that don’t have internal cable routing and bikes that look normal 👏👏
Build fixie and ride fixie again 😊
Guten Tag,
Es ist sehr schön an zu sehen wie ihr Fahrrad fahren liebt😊.
Weiter so und Fahrrad fahren ist sehr Gesund😎.
Liebe Grüsse aus Berlin Deutschland 😊

I havesome experience with titanium bikes and a titanium roadbike with a T47, with titanium as a material it is crucial to use copper grease between alluminium and titanium surfaces. If you do not, the materials will corode and for example the bottom bracket will seize in the worst way possible.

Major bike envy! What a beauty!
That is really a dream b😊ike
Matches almost my bike 😊, which is made of Titanium entirely. But yes, for Gravel some carbon makes sense. Thanks for sharing.
Dream girl, riding a dream bike
😍
Beautiful bike…..and even better looking owner!! Cheers, Pjw
I did a Ti custom last year. Used an Ergon seat post and whiskey forks, rest almost identical. Bravo
Hi Ms Biskwit. Nice bike, would fit me pretty well, change the saddle and the bars and I'm happy, Can I have it please?
Yep. Bought an Argon17 Titanium frame on eBay recently. Built up with Campag 11 speed Super Record. LOVE the feel of Titanium. So plush! Especially nice out of the saddle.
What an excellent video you have produced,I agree totally the bike looks absolutely stunning.For me the cabling routing is the best option for ease of maintenance as the expense of servicing and maintain with fully integrated handlebars is not necessary the best for me, but incredibly expensive if changes are required.Great vid thank you.
Bike looks great and Charlie Bratt @Paradign Cycles has great attention to detail, customer service and loads of knowledge and experience of any bike-related matters
Quite nice, fancy even
Call me a grumpy engineer, but the way he used the torque wrench (lever length is important!) is wrong, BB without torque wrench; Nm 4 and below you’d not fasten with a levered tool for the tolerances are too high, use a screwdriver-style; grease used seems to be the same everywhere yet your bearings likely have PU or PH grease in them (datasheet will tell) not compatible with all. DS BB inner race was greased but shouldn’t (only the NDS for Shimano; you’d grease the DS spindle if it were not from the factory, which most of them are these days). Greasing the freehub will just increase wear. 5:31 get a laser level 5:59 DI2 cable a bit short, and electrician’s tape used rather than strapping tape
