I'm pleased to introduce you to "Compo" my new (alright, really old) fold up bicycle. He needs some work though.

En route from Scotland to North Wales the other day. Imagine my delight at driving through Warrington. Naturally I was on the look out for my favourite bearded bimbler. No luck but I was highly delighted to pass Compo tube vendor Decathlon & shortly after the synchrotron tower thingy at Daresbury. I felt like a Beatles fan at John Lennons house.

Aww. Lovely stuff. :)

Again top vlog ,so funny ,look forward to the next 1 with “Compo “ in.

You might've struck gold with Compo there. I see it's got a nice bell. Some of those 1960's bells go for silly money on eBay - possibly even enough to pay for new tyres, brake bits and a modern 'ting-ting' bell. 🙂 BTW, you probably already know this, Sturmey Archer hubs usually have a date mark stamped into them which could help you identify the month and year of manufacture of the bike. I'm going to enjoy watching you bring it back from the brink. Happy fettling. 👍🏼

Unfortunately the bell doesn't work. The lever was broken off. Cheers Mick. :)

Love it. Think it's a bargain that kieran. Once done up look forward to Compo's journeys wherever it takes you. ☕🚲

@johnmacefield7292 Год назад

A skull and cross bones safety flag would tie it up nicely

@44950 Год назад

Nice one Kieran, hope you enjoy bringing Compo back to life and then take him on some fine Bimbles, good luck!

That's a highly entertaining 10 minutes. Cheap bikes RULE ✊ Are they 20" wheels? I love the way you flip it over and rest it on the gear lever. My favourite way to work on a bike.

You big spender you ..... 😂.. the vid made us both chuckle ...cheers Kieran.. keep them rolling...

@marieyenson9929 Год назад

I learnt to ride on a bike exactly the same in 1970 my mum's bike. Brilliant video again Kieran😊

@dbfhorses Год назад

I'll be honest straight out of the box. I don't like the cut of Compo's gib, and he's gonna have to work VERY hard to gain my trust. Are you sure these "vendors" don't have a rival channel Kieran ?

@kevinmoxon4553 Год назад

That would look cool painted in a nice colour and some gloss black rims or even maglites if they would go on' good luck with it kieran' I still have my 1980s raleigh burner had to fit maglites as my chrome wheels went rusty and kept puncturing the tubes. 👍

@Startrooper5555 Год назад

Compo needs new wellies.

@garycoleman9189 Год назад

welcome Compo 🤣

@mickcook9277 Год назад

Pretty cool.

@alanmac101 Год назад

oh! man that made me laugh, going to be hard work with just 3 gears, so make sure it's ridden on the flat and short journeys. On a more serious note, if you need any parts or equipment just post up an Amazon wishlist as I'd happily support you bud. Great videos as always keep up the entertaining work it's all much appreciated.

@fazechi1767 Год назад
