2021 Trek Domane SL5 Upgrades Part 3
7,923
Published 2021-06-28
A couple things on the vinyl, there are 2 types apparently one that can be clear coated over and one that cant, they are pretty thick so I worry about the edges catching, next time maybe I will clear coat.
Secondly with the alignment issues my work around was to use a solid color backing then apply the trek logo to that, cut the overall outline and logo as a whole. That way you can’t see any overlap of the original trek logo. Which I show later in the video, it’s not perfect but good enough.
As always if you have any questions please let me know in the comments below I always try to respond and if you don’t like the music too bad so sad no need to comment. Please subscribe or like and share the video with friends. Thanks for watching and bye for now.
PS if you would like to see a Q&A video on this bike or anything specific I could make a video let me know. I captured my video on my cell phone moto g7 plus and gopro hero 4 1080 60 nothing fancy.
Parts in this video -
-Bontrager ride time computer - I have not figured out how to get the automatic light turn on
-Bontrager blendr mounts/cockpit set up
-Titanium rainbow stem spacer from ebay
-Sanmarco short fit iridescent saddle and bar tape.
-Decals from etsy seller DecoraDecals
-Supacaz cages - supalite carbon 11g
- Future upgrades – Silca rainbow cages
-Bontrager 200 tail light, possibly a stronger night time front light.
-New chain
-Possibly dura ace derailleurs if they go on sale.
Parts in previous videos are as follows
Part 1 and 2
-Supacaz tron poly cages I had these already and just repainted them.
-Chinese oilslick rotors 160 from aliexpress, not bad but the surface is really coarse this may wear the pads down fast, I’m hoping it mellows out with use.
-Bontrager oilslick pedals
-Bontrager integrated tool, very light but not much leverage, so it’s an emergency tool at best.
-DIY Carbon Bikes wheelset - not recommended as they sent the wrong end caps and it was a major hassle. They are working fine though and the Novatech hubs feel very nice.
-Vittoria corsa tubeless 28mm with Stans tape and sealant no problems here.
-Dura-ace crankset 165mm
-Supacaz reflective oilslick tape – was not good quality do not recommend
-Bontrager xxx paradigm saddle (ebay special) and xxx carbon stem (craigslist)
-orange crank saver booties amzon
-Bontrager paradigm elite wheelset with campagnolo rotors and wtb 32 mm tubeless tires.
-Ztto or Ryet cassette oilslick aluminum except for the bottom most cogs.

Hey - I have the same bike! It’s fantastic. I’m looking to upgrade the handlebar. I was thinking to put the xxx and change the saddle. What upgrade did you find most beneficial?
