I’ve just been given an early 2000’s GT aluminium frame by one of my best friends (and my tattoo guy). I rode downhill semi-pro as a teenager and had more bikes than hot dinners, but I’ve never built a bike from the ground up by myself. This video (and others like it) is really helping me with figuring out how everything goes together and what tools I’m going to need. Brilliant video, and great to see a fellow Midlander in Dawley bikes getting some much deserved attention too.

Only 1 beer to build a bike? You must be much better/faster at it than me!!! The only advice I can offer is take a toenail clipper and go over all those zip ties one more time - it will give them the cleanest/smoothest finish possible. Trust me. Have another beer while you're at it. Just found your channel and I really dig it. Keep it up.

Jokes on you, my t-handles don’t have a ball end! You got me on the pedal grease though. I Was running out of time to shoot by the time I got the chain on and started rushing through. Shocked nobody has commented on me hammering the barb into the brake line… Or using needle nose to crimp the cable end instead of the crimper on the cable snips. 😂

8:10 you have the blocks, pinch them onto the brake hose with some vise grips just after where the barb will end. (Firmly, just enough to hold them still, don’t crush them!). The hammer is cringey and a lot of times will bend the barb. All you have to do is grab the side of a wrench or any flat, hard surface and steadily push/squeeze the barb into the hose. It literally slides right in every time!
@ShreddingSpree Жыл бұрын
Thanks Jeremy! I was close with my technique, just with the hammer instead of pressing in the barb. I’ve done it this way a half dozen times and haven’t bent one yet but I’ll try your recommendation next time. 🤙🏻

Kinda scared of it because of how pricey it can be. But I’m definitely hooked. As a first time mtb’r I tackled an intermediate trail in the Appalachia area for my first real trail ever! Did pretty good on a hardtail 29er Rockhopper. But I definitely have realized I need to upgrade my set up. Hydraulic brakes are the best thing I have going on lol.

Well I’m stoked that you’re stoked! Keep it going friend. As long as you’re more stoked on riding than buying new parts you’re doing it for the right reasons and the barrier of cost isn’t major. It sounds like you’ve got a solid setup so I hope you ride the wheels off that bike. When I lay in bed at night and think about riding bikes it makes just want to wake up and pedal. 💜

It is definitely addicting. I rode mtb as a kid/teen. But on low end budget bikes. When I purchased the bike I have and first hit the pavement it felt amazing. And every second of free time I have now there’s like a tick in the back of my brain telling me to go ride. Can’t throw a lot of money at anything right now as I have two very young children and they are priority. However right now I’m trying to learn as much as I can from riding and also from watching videos such as this to learn where to spend my time and money properly. After I watched this I literally went out and tuned my bike up best I could. I love stuff like this though. Love the edit and music and your vibe. I was even drinking a beer when I came across this. But it was very educational too! I’ll stick around man for sure.
