Building a Road Bike

Dennis and I spent all evening building his new bike. All of the components were brand new (except for the wheels) and we put everything on one at a time. Great learning experience and we came out of it with an extremely light-weight, great looking bike. And our new montra - Second time's the charm!

For the record, to those who are upset that this doesn't show how to do anything, we didn't label it a "How To" for a reason. It is a tribute to the work we did to show our friends and others. Furthermore, saying something on youtube, no-less a time-lapse is pointless, is quite absurd.

@siddartharo Perhaps at some point in the future when I build another bike from scratch I will. Unfortunately I don't have any plans for complete bike builds anytime in the near future.

@ebw82 What's the difference betwen normal frame and slopping? If both types fits me, what's the difference in riding?
Respectfully,
Vasile Lucian BUJOR
PS. What's the price o the bike in this clip?

@reparatorii I'm not too sure. I think sloping is more for compact road frames or mountain bikes. Google will give you a better answer.
Total cost for all components excluding the wheels (which were reused) was probably abou $1,300. Wheels would add another $500. If you bought a bike with the specs of this bike it would probably run close to $3,000. But that's a guess.

is it cheaper to by the parts and then build or to buy a built road bike?

@LifeinEdits Not having all the answers, I would say it is typically cheaper to buy components separately and build it yourself if you are pricing out things one-to-one. Obviously a lot has to do with where you purchase the parts - if you buy them for MSRP at a retail store, savings may be negligible. However, if you buy parts online you are more likely to save a lot more.
