This would be so gorgeous with a set of full length mudguards. Prime bike for a Festive 500. Brilliant work as always.
A dura-ace di2 winter bike. Fair enough
Beautiful bike great video to watch freezing on the trainer in the garage
Beautiful, love the color!
Lovely bike stand
Now time to festoon it with full mudguards and every bike accessory you can dream of. Thats the true winter bike way.
Winter bike🤭 you're avin a larf. Lovely bike and video but hey, back in the day I'd do a 100 miler club run in 6hours, on my OTTADINI- made on an industrial estate in County Durham- on nowt more than two jam sarnies and 500ml of Rinbina that was too strong, on INNER TUBES, quick releases, flappy cables and friction shifters. Oh how times have changed.
Mesmerising.
Great video Nic, you’ve been riding a few of these Battaglins recently 🙂 can you give us your thoughts on what they ride like ?
Lovely bike but deep wheels in the harsh winter cross winds? Not for me, Clive
You're always cutting down the steerer leaving just a few spacers on the first install. How are you able to know what the correct height should be, before you or your client even rides the bike?
I'm now considering how much of my life I can sell for that frame so I can put all my bog standard parts on it but look $1m
What’s so winter bike about this?
Relaxed again!
What a beautiful bike !
In Northern Ontario, Canada; my winter bike has 4.5” studded tyres, keeps me riding in temperatures as low as -28° 🥶….heated socks and gloves …
Beautiful looking bike and a great video way to go Nick🎉👍🏻
Beautiful build. Thanks!
My winter road bike cosplays as my summer road bike…and gravel bike. 😂
Would love to learn what BB tools you are using. Makes me itchy to build another bike!
SUBLIME.
Classy. Always love the BRG themed. I suspect more gold accents would be amazing!
Hands down most beautiful bike I’ve seen in a minute! Love the build videos. Look forward to the next one 👍🏻
WOW super Nice ❤
Surprised by the choice of Shimano over SRAM.
Da Vinci at work! Fantastic. Well done.
Nic when you score the steerer, I assume you will always be adding at least one spacer yes?
Please weigh the bikes after each build
No mudguards? 😂 absolutely beautiful!
Sepeda keren brow 👍
Menurut saya akan lebih bagus jika memakai welset yang tidak terlalu lebar..
Salam cycling dari Indonesia… 🙏 9:15
Very nice job. Glad to see the torque wrench on the cassette and disc lock ring. An underrated principle in the numerous bike build video…
Any reason you're not running SRAM on it? I thought you hated all the cables on DI2 but i might be misremebering. Great video nonetheless!
Lovely bike, but let’s be honest it’s not a winter bike. Winter bikes in the UK don’t have Dura Ace, carbon one-piece aero cockpit (bars and stem in my day nipper) and deep section carbon wheels.
very nice "winterbike" and perfect colour for the Battaglin
Nice built but thats Not a Winter bike
Lol….that not a "winter" bike.
Nic that build looks sick. The handlebar is the show stopper tho 👌
Mirrorless camera, fast lenses, pro mics, at least one soft box, premium editing, premium soundtrack. Add a fat computer for video editing, color grading and a skilled video editor. Here alone, no less than 10k €. This is called storytelling folks, it has nothing to do with a winter bike. Actually, no winter bike was used in this video. All components would add almost another 10k into the mixer. The only bad creative decision: the thumbnail title.
Winter bike no. 105 id choose. If it was rimbrake aluminium wheels. And aluminium handle bars .just in case,I drop it . To high spec for an winter bike.
defo a lovely looking machine – a winter bike in Tenerife maybe..
Lovely Bike that Green Colour oh my sweet 🤩🤩!! Maybe Steel is not a good choice for a Winter Bike….but that is just me.
I need that bottom bracket tool in my life
Lovely build but hardly a winter hack, that’s most people’s best bike
Now thats is one stunning bike great build 💚☘🍃🇮🇪
