</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Eager to get up close and have a glimpse at what the worlds bike manufacturers would be putting out this year we decided to take a trip down to the Excel London and have a look. We arrived at the show with around 20 minutes to spare before opening, so we decided to go and pay the extortionate prices for a bacon roll and a coffee. As soon as 10:00 came around we were straight into the exhibition halls and wondering around the isles. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After the first initial brisk walk around the hall to get our bearings it was soon evident that a lot of the big manufacturers were not present; no specialized, no Pinarello, no Shimano, no Campagnolo, we found this strange as all where present at the Birmingham Cycle Show that was towards the back end of last year, how come we asked? Well..... after many conversations with several of the exhibitors it became evident that once one of the big brands take the risk and decides to pull out, other major competitors follow suit and the next thing you know half of the worlds leading mike manufacturers are dropping like flies. It makes sense really, why bother splashing out £30k plus on a stall when your biggest rival isn't there for you to compete with.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Although disappointing there were still many of the big guys present and we have put together a small montage of some of the best bikes of the show for your viewing pleasure (apologies in advance for the photo bombers!) </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First we install the Di2 internal cabling, this is not a complicated task but can be fiddly. We start by removing the access panel above the bottom bracket and then feed through 4No. Di2 EW-SD50 ETube electric wires which connect using the SM-JC41 (internal) junction box.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Bottom Bracket Installation</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before purchasing your bottom bracket you need to check which type is required to suit your frame and chainset. The bottom bracket we have used for this build is the Shimano Dura-Ace push fit to suit our Shimano Ultegra Hollowtech 2 chainset. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before inserting the bottom bracket into its housing you need to ensure that there is no Di2 cabling dropping into the area of the bottom bracket chamber, this can be pushed up into the bottom of the vertical down post. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before you insert the bottom bracket ensure that you are inserting in the correct way, on the main body of the bottom bracket there is a demarcation indicating the left and right sides this can be seen in the image below.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0D8DMHAsVX0/UwdOHER26ZI/AAAAAAAABA0/uSbm6YPmlSk/s1600/shimano_sm_bb92_41_13_z.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0D8DMHAsVX0/UwdOHER26ZI/AAAAAAAABA0/uSbm6YPmlSk/s1600/shimano_sm_bb92_41_13_z.jpg" height="152" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once the bottom bracket has been inserted it is not quite as simple as 'pushing it to fit' you will need a tool to do this. You can make a simple too from threaded rod and bolts however, we have used the tool that Shimano provide for mere extortionate price of £40. Once you have placed the tool through the bottom bracket carefully wind the tool using a spanner and hex key until the outer face of the bottom bracket is flush with the frame. Finall</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">y you can then pull fix the access panel back to the frame ensuring that the Di2 cable for the front derailleur is slotted through the gap provided.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The bike comes complete with the headset bearings as pictured in Figure 1 below. However, unlike most other bikes, the installation of the fork is complicated as a result of the rear brake cable and Di2 cable to the bottom junction box actually running through the steerer tube of the forks.</span><br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In order to install the forks, you must first install the lower headset bearing (the fork crown race is built into the forks on this bike, so the bottom bearings simply drop onto the steerer tube (Figure 2). The rear brake cable outer housing and Di2 cable then need to be pulled through from the top of the steerer tube to the bottom, as shown in Figure 3 above.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next, thread the rear brake cable housing and Di2 cable through the hole on the back of the steerer tube and up out of the steerer tube (Figure 4), then thread the fork steerer tube with cable up through the head tube, gently pushing the brake housing and Di2 cable with it to avoid damaging them (Figure 5). Once through, install the upper bearing over the cables and steerer tube, then gently push the rear brake cable housing and Di2 cable back down and out through the top front hole of the steerer tube, ready for installation into the bars (Figure 6).</span></div>

<b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></b>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Plasma 3 TT frameset comes complete with the flat 'shark tooth' stem and colour matched PRO Missile Evo full carbon bars. The beauty of Di2 is that it enables shifting from both the base bar (bull horns) AND the TT extensions (this is not possible with mechanical shifting systems). However, installing the four Di2 cables and two brake cables is quite onerous, especially when the PRO Missile Evo 'riser kit' (shown here in the narrow setup) are also used as the Di2 cables are run fully internally through the bars and feed out straight into the stem. We used flexible plastic tubes to daw string through the bars, then used the string to pull the Di2 cables through. This may sound simple but it's quite complex and you need to take your time and you'll eventually get all of the cables through.</span><br />

The cables are ready to be run into the stem for connection to the 5 port junction box which will be fitted just beneath the stem. The TT shifters (for the extensions) used where the Shimano SW-R671 Di2, and for the drop down bars we used the dual shifter and brake lever Shimano Ultegra ST-6871 Di2 (these differ from the Dura-Ace brake lever/shifter that look very similar as the Dura-Ace version have carbon fibre levers compared to the Ultegra which have aluminium).</span></div>

This needs to be inserted with the chamfered end facing the font of the bike as it allows clearance for the cables running up from the frame to come through into the stem. This cables are shown in the middle and right photos once the top cap is installed and tightened (just enough to load the headset bearings), using the small bolt. The four bolts on the back of the stem should then be tightened with the stem facing forward.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Fizik Arione range of saddle is a popular choice here at Jordan Cycles, with Bike Radar having good reason to call it "the best all round saddle there is", as it provides an outstandingly comfortable ride. The Arione VS is our preferred choice of the range as it provides the additional pressure relief required by more experienced riders whilst still maintaining the high levels of comfort expected from the Arione range. With its sleek styling and contrasting use of materials it is one of the most aesthetically appealing saddles on the market.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This blog has been created by cycling enthusiasts (and cousins), Roy and Luke Jordan. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What we enjoy doing most is building bikes, and one thing this blog will do is allow our readers to follow the progress of all of our builds. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">By no means are we experts in bike mechanics however, we feel that experience with building and maintaining our own bikes could be of benefit to our readers so please feel free to ask us any technical queires that you may have you can use our contact form or email us at jordancycles@gmail.com.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From time to time we will also post reviews and generally just give our thoughts on all aspects of all things cycling, from reviews of components & gear, to details on events, shows and sportives.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We hope all of our readers enjoy looking at our photos of super cool bikes and reading our reviews and general blog posts as much as we will creating them!</span><br />
