Flip Bike is a new series on buying and selling used bicycles. Unlike the parts bin overhaul videos we do on Berm Peak Express, flipping a bike gives us constraints which will lead to a whole lot of learning. What upgrades add the most value? How can you get the most for your bike? How can you find the best deal? As we flip more bikes, we'll find out!

@apodski 2 года назад

I've got a super basic trek 3500 with a frame a few sizes small on me, that I found for $50. It cost somebody a whopping $260 in 2006. It's been so eye opening to me. It's an mtb, it's a road bike, it's a trials bike, it's a bmx bike. Ride a 3 foot drop to flat, ride a pump track, ride 100 miles a day, ride across town, ride circles around broken or very under utilized $5k dh bikes out on the trails. Great saddle, Good shifters. The chain can jump off if you're thrashing. Obviously you can't have EVERYTHING for $50. However, the versatility, durability, and value is utterly astonishing. I'm thinking of adding hydraulic rim brakes, I love it so much.

Wouldn't swap my retro mtb for any other. Now am going to watch the next one.

I own a blue Vintage Diamondback Topanga, my first and only Mountain bike. Upgraded everything back in the day, switched out the rapid shifters to Shimano Deore Thumb shifters with click and friction, Dia-Comp Brake Levers, LX Front and Rear Derailers and Ritchie Logic Cranks and Rings, Nice pedals with toe clips and straps, new rubber and a new saddle. Recently recabled it and switched to a brand new set of specialized vintage tires I had in storage 2 different tread patterns, re- cabled it and now am rocking my vintage bike in my 50's. Like you say, old high quality parts last forever if maintained properly.

@BodyKnight 2 года назад

The gummy thing in the shifter is the residue of old lubricating grease. It's a common theme on the shifter originating from the 100gs line. You should really consider repacking them with oil (instead of grease) after you have degreased\degummed them.

Loved this. I didn't figure out would be profitable with a $70 starting price, but it was still funny that you called the show to the end and detailed the"profit" number!

Dude, this is 100% a series I would really really love. I love watching Seth build or fix stuff.

I had the same bike as a kid and still have it. Mine is exactly the same except my dad repainted it red for me. I've been thinking about restoring it. This video was awesome and is a great inspiration for me to restore mine
