Can you build a Carbon Fibre Gravel bike for under £1200?

The reviewer discusses the T47 screwfit bottom bracket in the context of their gravel bike build. They express satisfaction with this choice over press-fit bottom brackets, which they mention are prone to squeaking and generally problematic based on forum discussions. The T47 bottom bracket is described as having a massive aperture that facilitates cable routing through the frame. The reviewer also notes that the bottom bracket shell is hollow and large enough to allow finger access inside for cable management purposes.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Avoids the common issues of press-fit bottom brackets (squeaking, hassle)
  • Large hollow design facilitates internal cable routing
  • Allows finger access inside for cable management

A frustrating experience - Wheeltop EDS-TX bike build

The reviewer discusses their experience with the WHEELTOP EDS-TX Wireless Carbon Electronic Shifter/Derailleur groupset throughout the video. They mention that the build went fine initially, but they found the groupset to be quite frustrating in practice.

  • Decent hydraulic brakes
  • Easy to set up on the bike

Cons
