Hey everyone, check out the description then leave a comment if you’d like! There’s a light build list in the video description and a couple links 🤙 Some of the clips have a bit of wind noise so I think I’ll get a wind reduction thing for some of the windier days, going forward. Cheers! 🫶🤩 See you in the next video!

@toastyrides 2 жыл бұрын

Hope you like the video, will reply to the comments on Friday (NZT) as I’m off to sleep now 🥳 but enjoy! The aim was a fun commuter build, I think I’ll bump the chainring up to a 38t for more topspeed (after more testing) when I can get a blue Stridsland ring next time 😎🤌💙

Just one quick thing, make sure that fork has a cro-mo steer tube. when the 1-1/4 pepperoni forks came out as standard in 1992 on models M700 and above, the forks came with aluminum steer tubes which had failures and were recalled. I am guessing that's why the fork paint color doesn't match.
