The good thing about fixed gear bikes is that they're so clean and not requiring much parts love it 🤩

Always love to see old bikes getting the transformation. This bike is a beast!!

10:05 that focus shift is one of the most fun shots I've ever seen

Purple bikes are top tier! 🔥🔥🔥

I've never tried fixed gear mtb before, but as long as it's fixed gear I'll definitely like it.

Unreasonably cool. 26 certainly ain't dead! I've got a Bianchi Milano that I've been wanting to give a similar fixed gear treatment to and your project is super inspiring! Great work as usual.

Very happy to see you building this project! it is always nice to give new life to old frames! Peugeot made very good frames with good geometry and attention to detail. Like the dedicated post for the rear derailleur, etc. This is like my first MTB ,bought at 91. Mine was the mangalloy series Peugeot built. Still my favourite bike to ride, mostly unchanged!

YES ITS FINALLY TIME 🥳🤤 end result looks so rad👌

Such a cool built! I've got a similar single speed and they really rip in that configuration, I find. I also love that you explain what you're doing. Awesome and inspiring job!

So sick mate, very inspired to do something similar myself. Recently gave a neglected 2011 Subrosa Malum a new lease of life and did a tracklocross style build on it, been loving it. Wanted to do a 90’s mtb project for a while but never thought of doing one with a fixed wheel, awesome stuff

In the 90s most bike messengers had hardtail and rigid fork mountain bikes. Most were single speed, some with gears and some fixedgear. But steel mountain bikes were the preferred method for getting around the city. 26" wheels are just more nimble, faster and sturdy

Stunned! Your builds amazes me every single time. This video really make wanna build something similar, it looks so rad!!

I got this old Raleigh Nitro fram and wanted to restore and turn it into fixed, im gladly found this video, it gaves me so much hope

bro the work that you've made with this bike is flawless, my respect... you're a master!

So sick! Klunklocross

I've just started riding 28c on my fixed gear bike and it is so much fun, This build looks like a joy to ride combining the Mtb and the fixed gear aspects props to my man!!

Very interesting! I'm 96% sure the bike had been through at least one rebuild before this one. Several parts were 15+ years newer than the frame, which I believe dated back to around 1989-91 (it depends a bit on where it was first sold). I have a Peugeot U.S. Express I'm trying to figure out how to rebuild... basically the same as the Black Rock, with some different parts. It's good to know 2.3" tires will fit! Nice work.

Heartfelt thanks for keeping the original paint finish and not ruining it with one of those nasty cheap powder-coating jobs. Really very nice!

I was just thinking about rebuilding a 20 year old mtb i have to a freestyle fixie. This made me commit. Thanks!!!!

This is awesome... Giving me inspiration for my old Peugeot

I did one of these conversions on a vintage GT Karakoram about a year ago....I love it! Great Video!

Looks super fun! I love me a classic MTB conversion!

Reminds me of the old thrasher fixed gears ! I’m totally doing this with my specialized hard rock I picked up

Top notch bike and video work as always! The bike itself looks so fun to ride

This makes me want to convert my 86 Sirus into a fixed gear even more. I like the paint job on it and it’s a steel frame.

Such a rad frame to begin with. Also, that wheel build was top notch!

I'm at the 6:30 minute mark, and that's why I always strip down a bike, then decide how to build it. That thing is super cool!

this is the exact content im looking for, subbed

such a beautiful build, I'm inspired to do a fixed 90s MTB too now

I had no idea they made fixed cogs for the disc brake mount. I gotta check those out.

Man that was a very good lesson! the bike looks really dope. the best vibes from Colombia

Your build always inspire me

Great build, nice to watch 👩🏼‍🔧

Currently got a GT Karakoram and this video makes me want to switch it to single speed !!

really interesting build man! 🙌🙌

I saw gcn shim "standard" a seat post to make it fit a Peugeot frame. That is basically what som mechanics did on tour de France.

Solid build as always 🔥

Sick mate. I did the same thing a month ango. Really enjoy riding it + it became my daily commuter

I was so hyped up like if you where building my bike. Wow man beautiful build

19:45 cameraman on point af

Really cool, I have a Peugeot mountain valley ( purple paint, pretty similar to this one but w/o the paint splatter) and this got me hyped to restore it! I think I'm going for a commuter/comfy ride for this one tho, as it's a big size that fits me well and I have a hard time finding those sizes here in Spain. Keep on wheeling, love the vids :)

yessss, this is a fresh build

Fixed gear bikes I think took years off my knees....looks fun though!

Man great build havent seen that cog in the disc brake mount conversion very creative given me a great idea ...bike is sick. !

I’ve been wanting to convert my oldie mtb into a fixed. Never knew those cogs existed! Now I can just shop for a 26in wheel with a disc brake hub. Wish me luck! And thanks for this post!

Great video, new to the channel. I'm actually in the process of building a Fixed gear road/city bike right now, and this video has actually helped me to figure out some problems I have

Fixed gear retro mtb wow! Definitely something new! I also like how you used zipties to attach the grips, maybe ill try that when i change mine, here people usually spray the insides of the grip with alcohol and slap it on the bars 💕🖤

This is sick!

Ahaha the wheel build end shot, so clean man!

i just love this! people needs to save the old frames more !

aahh the wavey coffee break session, namaste!

Beautiful build mate, nice bike skills too!

So nice! Wanna get a fixed gear rn!

Great job mate, very neat!

So jealous your chain lined up almost perfect Im trying to convert a specialized hard rock to single speed and I have a track hub that is just to narrow

OMG, so beautyfull!!! Congrats bro!!!

I have the very same bike since '94, when I was 10. Loads of memories of long rides on mountains and jumps such a bike wouldn't be expected to take. Only thing is it's far larger than yours and I'm only 5.7 - seems my father was unjustifiably optimistic when he brought it home. My "proper" MTB was stolen 5 years ago and I could only afford a track-style bike since, which is hardly a replacement lol. I was torn between restoring my purple Peugeot - especially going through the pain of recreating its splattered paint job that's gone missing from the chainstay and bottom bracket - and leaving it at the basement and staying off the mountains still, since it will never fit me exactly right. Seeing yours with a short modern stem and a nice wider bar makes me want to do the illogical and sentimental thing and bring the Black Rock back. Also, I found it funny that its paint job is so memorable that several people came across this video and sent it to me, knowing I would be happy to see another one of these. I don't know if I'll actually do it, I'm definitely not getting rid of that biopace weirdness though. Cheers.

Thats a lovely beast!Another old 'un saved:)

That bike is a beastt!!!

Yo! Peugeot gang! :D I literally build up the same frame (same paintjob too, loving it!) as a fixed gear, but also 700c + threadless fork conversion. And yes, finding a seatpost for those is a pain. Found mine in an odd parts bin of a local bike shop. Awesome video man!

Binging your videos, loving your work. I’m new to bike mechanics - could you tell me what the white paste is you apply to threads? just curious. cheers for the entertainment, relaxation and education.

love the couple of paint splatters on the steerer tube

Wow thanks for the inspiration man!

15:04 cool tip with the zip ties to get the grips on.

Wow...that's a fun bike..I want to ride this one well done,not to over the top,just fun

I've got a very similar semi-retired early-90s Peugeot mtb (a purple Terrifik!) and this has given me an idea for a little project.......😁

I love old Peugeots! My first proper MTB's were a Peugeot Laser 15 then a Peugeot Anaconda.... The Anaconda was probably the same year as your bike here.

dope build

you even built your own wheels i think that's so cool

another great video! thanks man!

Hey man, love the video! Thinking of building a rear wheel myself with the surly hub but was wondering what length spokes you used. Thanks!

💣💣💣 MONSTERTRACK💣💣💣

I did a similar conversion and ended up running a 127.7mm square taper spindle! I never knew they made them that wide in 68mm shells till then lmao

Thanks for the video!

Beautiful

str8 fire....thank you

Sick as always

I wanted to do that for years too! Looks like a polo bike from 2010

Masterpiece as always 👌

AMAAAAAZINNG

Awesome!

Well done!😉👍

That is a sick build my dude

Good job. 👍

I wanna build a fixed gear belt drive bike. Would be expensive for a single gear drive train, but would be the ultimate short distance commuter imo. You never have to do any maintenance other than pumping tires and checking brakes like once a year or something.

that's so dope, my daily ride is an old school atb/mtb and i thought about doing this. but i made it a ratty commuter that can't decide if it's a miniature road bike or a randonneur.

I have literally wanted to do this exact thing for about a year now. I want a fat tire fixie so bad.

YEAAAAAHHHHH!!!! Another conversion video hell yeah 🙌

With that stearer tube you can just use a 1' threadless headset and put a shim so you can use any 1-1/8 stem

awesome!

Great video, bike came up great. Was your clearance at the rear hub 130mm in the frame? I've only got 120mm in the frame I'm building up. Would would you suggest? I'm thinking a track wheelset as a singlespeed, but is anything else going to fit?

You got the vintage Peugeot hookup

this was the last push I needed to go looking for an old hardtail MTB

RIGHTEOUS M8!!!

Классный байк ,можно сказать дал вторую жизнь.

Awesome 🔥

Top shelf...

lovely

Awesome conversion bro! Lets finish my GT gold Palomar commuter and I'll maybe do a fixed mtb. An old Peugeot costs around 20 bucks in France lol.

That’s a rad bike ;-)) I drive an old(ish) Rocky Mountain Hammer transformed into a 2-gear kick shift coaster bike (with »magic gear«) … too scared to drive fixed in the woods ;-P … cheers !!! Great vid as always !!!
