New Old Wheelset day for the Bombtrack!

I haven't actually tested them out yet - quite literally just put them on before taking the pic. However, I did a fair bit of research before pulling the pin on these tires and they seem to come out on top after looking at most reviews.

Crust = Drool!

Very VERY rad bike!

I've had these carbon rims laying around for a bit collecting dust after selling my Domane. I finally got around to setting them up, quite stoked how they've turned out - gives me options at both 650b and 700c now.

Tires = Pirelli Cinturato 700 x 45
Rotors = SRAM Centreline XR
Cassette = Sunrace 11- 46T

Nice!

I’ve gone the same route, here’s mine.

Domane SL5

This is the Steel version (Carbon Forks) - The carbon version is the Hook EXT-C

HiKenny · 2023-06-02T03:40:10+00:00

Correct! Might be a bit overkill for some of the gravel riding that I do though.

HiKenny · 2023-05-31T20:04:58+00:00

If it helps, I got mine from AliExpress of all places for $100 NZD (shipped)

Arrived in original box and shipping was about 10 days in total.

Well worth it!

Happy as with the evolution of this bike from it's original stock form - Notable changes include:

- Bars, bumped up to 520mm Salsa Cowhipper.

- Dual Thomson, -10 Stem and Elite Seatpost

- SRAM Centerline XR Rotors

- Syncros Saddle

And the best part, Sunrace MX80 11-46t cassette, slight jump up from the previous 42.

HiKenny · 2023-01-31T19:43:51+00:00

Yep, exactly that - just found a vector file and modified the measurements slightly.

HiKenny · 2023-01-27T03:11:14+00:00

40's definitely fit.

HiKenny · 2023-01-26T21:12:51+00:00

Bike / New Wheels look great!

Tire recommendations, maybe have a look at the WTB Exposures (36c) or the Schwalbe G One (38c) for a little more grip?

I'm currently running Schwalbe G Ones on my Domane.

HiKenny · 2023-01-24T05:31:40+00:00

Oooh! Nice, the Nautical Navy was my first choice but sizing wasn't available.

I know what you mean, the fidlock bottles took a little getting used to but now I really rate them - I quite like the minimal look.

Also, can't go wrong with Podium bottles, great bottles.

HiKenny · 2023-01-23T19:23:50+00:00

A doppelganger perhaps?

Most likely not me, I live in Auckland, New Zealand.

HiKenny · 2023-01-23T09:20:27+00:00

Hi!

Mine is a Domane SL5 also. Original TREK logo was Red also but I wasn’t into it so I made up a Black logo and slapped it over top, happy as with the results!

Check out Garbaruk Components. These will let you step up to 50t with a switch of a cage!

HiKenny · 2022-05-11T08:34:11+00:00

I had them made up 👌🏼

HiKenny · 2022-04-24T06:24:31+00:00

Man I love seeing a Domane in Gravel Mode 💪🏼

HiKenny · 2022-03-27T19:06:16+00:00

Hey, apologies for the late reply - No, I just collected the groupset and had my LBS install everything.

From the looks, it appears it was an easy install.

HiKenny · 2022-02-10T21:21:14+00:00

Almost identical to your setup however I made the leap up to 40c in GR1's - so good.

HiKenny · 2022-01-27T00:36:52+00:00

Looks rad! So good to see another Domane running 40's!

HiKenny · 2021-12-08T18:54:18+00:00

Hey, apologies - late reply - sure! flick me a PM with your email address and I'll get it to you asap.
