Hannah and Vik take us through a frame swap on small road bike. Switching from a generic road fit Time Alpe D'Huez to a supposedly more aggressive aero frame, the TIme Scylon. In this video we talk though geometry changes, and how we maintain that important saddle to bar drop to ensure the best muscle function and aerodynamics.

The Parts used in this build include:
ENVE In Route Aero Stem
Wolf Tooth In Route Headset
Enduro Stainless Steel 51.8 Bearings
Time Scylon

Wheel and Groupset from existing bike.
Vik uses a Prologo Dimension saddle in 153mm
Time Pedals
Deda 40cm Outside to Outside bars

The trouble with being small and riding bikesYour Bosch is Broken and This is Probably WhyWhy Aero Bikes feel slow on Real RoadsSo Pretty.  German engineering is 🧑‍🍳🤌.  THM cranks, Carbon Ti chainrings and a Time Scylon.Dancing up mountains, but could we have made this better?This is What a Real Full Service Looks LikeNo wonder we have house fires from e-bikes.Done Right 👍 Mechanical Shifting & Internal Routing 😱Ready to go. Brakes bedded, test ride done.  ☑️Fix these common issues, before you try and balance your wheels.Satisfying Wheel Build Process | No Talk, Just VibesThis Breakthrough Could Save European Bike Production
