Who do you think has the best retro bike? Are you stoked for retro week?

@markturner-smith5309 5 лет назад

Doddy

@gmbn did you even give neil a memo about what to wear? hahahaha he seems like was on a vacation for a month and didn't get a new uniform on his return hahahha ni job guys... bring in sam pilgrim and his 4wheeler!

I'll give Blake my vote cause he went full squishy!

@bigman3631 5 лет назад

Yes!! I said this earlier but I'd be more stoked with a retro month Edit: Doddy's bike is best, Neil's 2nd and Blake's just disappointed me, it was awful

@Metal-Possum 3 года назад

He's old school, he's in his 40's now and lived in MTB when dicking about was in its prime. People didn't have vigorous training routines, they found some dirt, made some jumps, and just fooled about with their mates after school each day. Kids had to improvise with their bikes a bit too. If you wanted to race DH, you grabbed your trusty XC hardtail and with some parts from your LBS's discount bin, you pretended it was a DH bike.

It's going to sound weird, but Doddy is the most unassuming rider on this channel. If that makes sense. He's rarely seen showcasing his skills, but he's an absolute monster :)

@googlepixel9pro 5 лет назад

Think you should try another new v old. But this time build a new old stock frame with 2019 parts. Maybe on a 2009 full suspension frame. Should make interesting viewing

@gaz2188 5 лет назад

wicked idea

@gaz2188 5 лет назад

But most new parts won't fit the old standarts, for example modern forks wouldnt fit into the old narrow headset. But just seeing what basic upgrades would to to the bike would be nice. A wider handlebar is probably the most important change

@googlepixel9pro 5 лет назад

@@gaz2188 I'm sure GMBN could sort something out. There good at problem solving!

@stinkyfungus 5 лет назад

@@gaz2188 Yeah, that's pretty much what I found out when I thought about reviving my old late 90s XC rig. Just not worth the trouble, plus none of the choice parts will really be compatable. Everything today is beefier, axle standards changed, hub spacing and chainstay designs changed to suit wider range rear gearing, wider tires, and larger wheels, Handle bar diameters changed, brakes have gone to almost exclusively disc in MTB (issue if your 90's frame doesn't have disc brake mounts) Fork steer tube standards changed, headset designs changed, BB standards changed. To do a full ground up build using the best 2019 parts on a late 90s frame... its gonna be a PITA.

@bigman3631 5 лет назад

It seems that there's a whole community of like minded people for stuff like this!! The number of people wanting them to do more on retro and older bikes. Honestly, I am of the same belief. I have already commented something very similar to somebody else today about wanting gmbn to notice us one day!! We'll live in hope. If something of the kind happens we will all be buzzing!! Hope you get seen mate!!

@christopherhday 5 лет назад

I am grateful for the advancements in mountain biking. Back in the day we didn't know that what we rode could be better, we just road what we had. It wasn't as much about what type of trail you road, as it was a bunch of folks getting together to ride on dirt and in the woods. The first mountain bikes we had were rigid front and rear and you felt like your whole body was numb after riding the trail. My hope for the future of mountain biking is to continue to advance, but never forget the past and the main reason mountain biking came to existence. Have fun, ride whatever you have, make friends and make great memories.

@carlwilliams3488 5 лет назад

-1 for Neil, 1990 Lavadome originally had Project 2 forks, those are not P2's for sure!

@nigeljohnson8022 5 лет назад

It has to be Doddy that is so retro. But for out right lunacy it has to be Blakes motorbike impression !!!! cheers guys loving the retro stuff.

@AA-vj3si 5 лет назад

@markturner-smith5309 5 лет назад

100% my score go's to Doddy full titanium GT & XTR like how lucky a pure 90's XC racers pin up 😍. Oh yes how's the sausage Doddy? - looked like pure squashing/crushing pain......was fully expecting the high pitched Michael Jackson Impression!!!! 😂

@tonymartino7892 Год назад

Still riding my GT All Terra Outpost Trail. Triple triangle 4130 chromoly steel. The large frame with the extremely long stem has my head in the clouds but my baby is smooth, solid and absolutely gorgeous! Still great for cruising, trail riding, camping, bike hiking and messing around with the grand kids in the cul de sac. Great to see you guys have held on to your old faithfuls. Will not even consider single track at speed faster than I can walk though😉 That was fun, had me in stitches. Thank you!

@jackhewitt7902 4 года назад

I remember doing the “ motorcycle noise” thing with old can me and a friend would raid the recycle bins for old cans and squeeze them between the frame and rear tyre I think we pissed off a neighbour once though.

I've replaced every component on it, changed to wide bars instead of that narrow bar madness, and it still rips!
