Francis Cade's Mullet Custom Bike Build 

For someone who still gets stressed out trying to fit a rear wheel, I find these videos strangely relaxing. Lovely bike too.

The ambient spa music makes it 👌

Awesome build, loving the ambient music

I thought i was gonna miss the silly, star-wars-tinged banter… and i was right. I love how much thinking Nic does before he says something funny, how just outright Jimmi is and how just hilarious Francis is without trying. Having said that, i do love watching nic work with the subtle music behind him. As i’m sure the comment section is rife with “no mask while cutting a carbon tube?!” and “bar tape/brakes should be this way or that” i wanted to make sure i got in another i still love your work be it Atticus, when you show up in Francis’ vids (it honestly seems like a Marvel-level crossover when my fave cycling subs meet up!) or your other endeavors (more music?). Keep it up! I love how these drop on Fridays as it’s the end of my weekend and it’s a great cap - esp these build vids.

…i also love how Nic just splashes through the pomp-and-circumstance that SRAM put millions of dollars of design into just because he’s seen it so so many times.

Stunning bike! Love the care that goes into building the bikes!

I was a bike mechanic in my youth and it's great to watch a bike being put together, pizza looked nice too 😋

As if I wasn't already envious enough of Francis's bikes! Awesome video! I love how relaxing they are to watch!!

That bike build 🤩 - Sign us up for the next round of pizza and beers!

Enjoying the build video, you can tell the way the mechanic works on the bike shows his passion for his work. Nice background music.

Well done, Jimmi. Gee Milner watch out!

Another great video. This one had Francis Cade, beer and pizza in it.

A beautifully produced video of a beautiful bike build. Thank you.

Hutchinson is a solid brand (I'm using Touaregs)! I wish there are a lot more out there who would use and feature it on their build. Beautiful bike btw!

Worked in a bike shop during the pandemic. I wonder why I come always back to watch such vids. Maybe I should change my profession at 61.🤣

Momum TAV valves looking trick in purple! Thanks for featuring and love the bike build videos!

I wish I could just pop in and hang with you guys. Adding your neighborhood to my world bucket list. Excellent video. The intermission reminded me I had food waiting.

love the gold chain and gold cassette! Nice build.

nice one Jimmi very relaxing

Cracking video, I've got the lesser Addict Gravel 30 as a one bike to rule them all and absolutely love it.

Ah man, to have the budget for a build like that with all the components you want!

The relaxation factor of this vid was just what I needed after a week like last

I like the ambient soundtrack on this one.

Gorgeous bike!

My favourite one yet 👍

That pizza looked great, also contentious bar tapping;)

Bike ASMR

07:31 - double parked and fitting tyres. Absolute wizardry.

Almost pulled the trigger on a Scott Addict Gravel 20 but can’t get past the purple/black frame. This build is right up my alley, love all the components and the color, especially the gold. 🙌🏽❤️

Great video Jimi!

Great video and a truly awesome bike!

This internal rooting looks sick, but a pain in the ass to build as well!

Another great vid! Nice work 👍🏽

So satisfying

Thanks Francis and Nick and Jimmi...Nice bike mate ! AND the Pizza looked amazing......Peace. Well done lads .

Good mechanic nice bike

Beer and Pizza whilst working!! wow best job in the world

OMG! This is pure Zen!

cracking bike thanks for sharing!

Thanks for posting Jimi = beautiful & nice edit. @ Francis > Nice Build. I don't usually suffer 'Bike Envy'... I now have all kinds of it to deal with (haha) = Thank gawd for supply issues !! I'll have to wait.

Beautiful!!!!

This is so cool!

Thank you for this build. I’m looking at building a bike almost exactly the same (probably diverge vs Scott, but the same components otherwise).

Jimmiiiii ! Love these vids.

Subbed, liked and commented. Super nice build.

Damn that is a very nice assembly video and a beatifull bike.

Very nice build and camera work

Beautiful bike 🚴👍👆

Nice one Nick

Oh I can only dream of something like that 👍🏻

wow...just wow..!!!!!

Nice build, nice vid like the pizza making bit, now I really want pizza.

Fabulous

Didn't know those Hutchinson tyres, but those look great. Been asking WTB for a 700c version of their Sendero, but the Tundras in 45 should work well too (Canyon Grizl). it can get quite muddy over here (NL)

I'm very jealous!

Sounds like the hot-yoga ambient sounds. It works.

On all accounts,lovely stuff!!???

In my dreams 😅💙💎

They look like children creating a jewel.😁 Beutyful bike

is it possible to flat bar using components from gravel (shifter eagle AXS but using crank and sprocket SRAM rival/force/red)? I'm using a hybrid bicycle.

Very relaxing video, I love it to watch at the end of the day

good looking pizza. bike looks good too.

Just wondering if it's possible to install the new Eagle Transmission on the Addict

That is going to be a proper weapon in his capable hands 👌🏼🔥

Hi Jimmi: Francis sent me. Great video. When do you decide to cut the steerer tube? I watched the cut and said: can't undo that...." I need a crash course in cable routing and hydraulic brake installation .... nice watching a pro at work.

Nicely done, Jimmi. But who's that unruly character in the hat? 🤔😉

Hey Jimmi, did you guys go with a wide road bottom bracket and wide crank?

Can you please tell me whats the name of the integrated stem and bar you used? Thank’s

any chance of a director's cut version? like 90 minutes or something?

is there something special about the bbb grip tape you're using? noticed it in all of your other builds and it doesn't seem to be that popular elsewhere

Amazing video as always Jimmy. Poor pizza choice 🤣 🍕

I have a spare xx1 crankset and trying to change the chainring to 48t , is it compatible to used it ? How much offset should I used?

Wow😘😘😘

What specific chainring you are using? Is it a one by system? Is it a 48t chainring? Sorry I'm very newbie here and I'm building same gravel bike .

Bizniz

I like to put a straight bar hehe

is that sram butter what he uses for the brake cable nut?

nice pizza build

That was a nice way to spend 15 minutes.

What chain is this? The eagle chain I installed is too short for 46t front and 50t rear

mullet - was watching and waiting what was mullet then read the build list :( i thought something crazy like a 27.5 and MTB tire LOL out back

He’s going to need to grow a mullet now…

Damn I want pizza now

glad my bike dosnt have internal routing!

what's the chainring size?

Gold chain must be worth at least 5 watts!

Kool video, and sick bike. BUT hope you court that the front brake isn’t mounted correctly.. caliper is too far from rotor. Fork must be 160mm rotor ready, rather than 140 and adding a 160mm caliper mount means it sits far too high. Don’t mean to be THAT guy but hey here I am haha 🤣

Take my money

I think Francis´ bike got Nicked.

BICYCLE

Nice bike, but this cablerouting around the headset looks just terrible to build and service

Sexy looking bike 😱😱😍

By custom I thought you meant custom.

And the peddles?🤷🏼‍♂️

Brake levers and calipers sold already connected. Wow SRAM, that’s idiotic!

All these "pro" bike mechanics using a vise and a hacksaw to cut a fork steerer... my God, buy a porta-band, for Crissakes!

awesome! but what's the deal with that awful music? kinda ruined it for me
