ah the feeling of relief when both seat post and stem come out of a rusty crusty neglected old bike...The one by with a thumbie is a great choice for a bullet proof drive train I love those canti racks, rode with one until it literally broke after about a decade of use
Very nice! I have this type of front rack and zip-tied a basket to it. That's much better than hanging a basket from the handlebars. Deglaze the brakepads with sandpaper or a file and the noise is gone!
Nice build. Good to see someone doing this like I'm sure most of us do, without a whole wall full of Park Tools and an unlimited budget! Keep building 😊
Hi, looks like you have a great bike 👌👌🙏🙏We are sure if you give it a little love it will be a great bike for years💪💪👌👌🫡🫡We keep our fingers crossed for the project👌👌👌Have a great day 👋👋😉😉
Another one ready for the road again. I think you could have done a little more to make the paint pop again. Try regular paint cleaner from the auto parts store and afterwards a wax finish. This is so oddyl satisfying, you won't stop grinning. Plus, especially for steel frames, it's an investment into the future because of the rust protection you add to the frame.
Hi thank you for comment. Old derailleur and shifter was broken. I had no choice 🫣🫣this is what I find cheapest on Marketplace 🙏🙏the bike works great👍👍
Nice one and it turned out greate. It's cheaper parts around you then it is i Norway though. 😅🔥 Only question I have for this one is if the chain can stay on without chain guide or NarrowWide chainring. Cool anyway. 🤙
Thanks🙏it was hard to fit in £100 budget, this may be a problem, you're right, it would be best to buy narrow chainring but if you turn it over it should be ok. so far the bike is working great. Greetings from the UK. We cycling this weekend from London to Amsterdam. Never know one day we may be in Norway as well.l🤩🤩💪💪🫡🫡 Have a great day 👌👌🚴♂️🚴♂️
@BARN2ROAD that kind of budget won't allow any expensive parts for sure, so I understand the part choices. And on some builds, the chain stays on anyway, so it makes sense to try it out. 😁🤙 Love the work either way. 😃🔥 Enjoy Amsterdam. I heard it's a "paradise" for cycling, with a wide range of different bikes used for daily commuting. I'd love to go there myself. 😊 Just keep riding bikes and do more of these bike videos. The world need easy going/ positive content on YT. 🙌 See ya 😎🚲☀️
Thanks for such a great comment 👌👌👏👏Giving your old bike a second life is great fun. and comments like yours make me want to do it all. we cycling on bikes from the 80s😂😂🫣🫣it will be definitely fun as weather forecast doesn’t look great 😂😂😂 Enjoy your cycling 🙌🙌🙌
