Scrub daddy for bike geeks I love it.

i usually just take a shower with mine

thanks, fancy bicycle boy there was no reason i was shown this, but whatever good luck with your dirty bike channel

You must've used a torque wrench on this video because it is precise and to the point. I adore this thank you.

I love how proud your dad was at keeping his shoes clean; great video man.

Amazing content. Great quality. I am thoroughly impressed and entertained. Thank you for this. It has inspired me to go head first, full steam into my own goals. Keep up the good work.

so how do i start the wrap? feels like an important step was skipped.

Got confused and now I’m wrapped up like a mummy.

Simply amazing. Thank you.

Have you noticed the chain rubbing on the bigger front gear? I noticed this when I would shift to the 11tooth in the back and small gear in the front.

When did they start calling them cassettes? Lmao. I’ve been out of biking over 35 years

Never do

Replacing the chain with a new one would be a good idea too.

Yearly

you did great but I think It will be better of you put drop bar

Hey thank you so much for making this video it will help me out with my future project to convert my mountain bike into a road bike as well. Big thanks!

Will the speed be the same as those rb?

Your dad's seat appears to be too low. Very hard on the knees.

thats a criterium set up

Why not drop down bars? I am wanting to convert a gravel bike to a road bike, but the store mechanic mentioned something about the forks being inherently different. There is a ratio of space that is off. The shape of the fork as well.

Hey, would you recommend 29 or 27.5 bike on this trail? Seems like there's some larger roots/rocks for 29er, but also a little technical. Thanks.

How much does it weigh?

I Love it!!

is mtb 32t 10-52 t 29tires good on flat road?

Thanks for the info. Not understanding the advantage of the single, small ring up front.

Thank you! This some great info on what I'm trying to achieve. What is your top or average road speed now and with what size chain ring?

What was the rear cassette combination form MTB to Roadie?

Wow we do that a lot here in the Philippines converting mountainbikes for the road. Its really fun to ride and quick too.

In my opinion you built a badass gravel bike

Nice hybrid

Hybrids are a thing in the Philippines.

I used mountain bikes for road riding. Around Essex the roads are terrible

What I found out the problem to be is not the number of speeds but rather the missing bigger 50-51-52 tooth cogs on smaller speed cassettes. I can't imagine why would you need an 11 tooth on MTB. I've changed from 2 x 8 to 1 x 11 and I've never used anything after 8th speed and the bike is even used fairly often on the road as a commuter. I could have stayed which the 8 speeds, just give me 52T ring :D

been wanting to try these out, im up in corinth. You live local?

My brother and I made up our own event in 2004 or so and called it the Dual Peak Tricathlon. The 3 events being ride from Gatlinburg to the top of Clingman. Then, backdown and cycled to the Bullhead trail and fast hike up Mt. Laconte. The third and final event was beer drinking. So about 50 on the bike 14-15 round trip up Laconte. Think it took about 6-7 hours. Was a blast.

Total wasting of money! I have 2 oval chainrings,and I have never ever felt any benefits of this nonsense! I don't own a car, so cycling is my everyday habit,and bicycle is my only transportation,so,a experienced 'cyclist' Keep your money, don't get hyped! Peace,and greetings from Croatia from Kris 😊

Gonna do this to my marlin 5 might even put rigid forks on it since I never ride on trails and all city riding

Your Dad crushed that hill.

I would shorten the bars and put some end bars too

Do you know what "caveat" means? Try learning words before using them.

i love my oval!

All I want to build is an mtb than is able to sprint with 50t chainring

I like that Monster Energy colour scheme as well. The Original, not the 1,000 varieties that they now have.😊

Most inept use of an Allen key I’ve ever seen

im doing a very similar project right now

Scales needs new battery. Think they tend to do that.

Super helpful video. Thank you!

I agree that chainrings are important. I cannot understand the price.

Have you had any problems with dropping the chain on your single speed? Seems like there is a large slack section when you’re paddling.

Very easy to convert Shimano to XD - but make sure that you get the correct XD! Do not get an XDR for MTB use...
