what the diameter of seat post?

I love the way you measure things by ball hairs 😂

M600 servo wave brake levers ?

Hello Max if you should spend 500$ on tools for a bikeshop, what would you choose?

I hate those BB rings. If I’m trashing it I’ll just use a hammer and flathead and basically chisel it off

My guy, Hozan makes a tool for that bb shell that doesnt suck and smash up your hands.

❤ great job young lady we all started somewhere😊

I gotta say man. I thought the purple bar tape looked really good. Nice build though. Looking forward to seeing what happens with it

Absolute vibe my dude, am loving the yt videos, keep it up and big upp for spreading this love and inspiration for (old) bikes

Just found this channel + just found a Bridgestone 200 for 50 bucks that I’m converting to fixed (or single speed, unsure yet). So I definitely will try to finish it in time to submit 💥

Bike is a 91 Rockhopper!

That <3 chip on the seat stay is naturally fire

I absolutely love this video.

It's coming together nicely. I like. I like a lot.👍🏾

Dimple! Dimple! Dimple!

Can you restore an old bike with it’s original parts the bike came with or is the theme customisations.

Appreciate all your vids and sharing knowledge. Your approach is like many top mechanics I've known in CO over the years. I like to add a very fine layer of Finish Line Teflon grease to spindles and a tad more on threads. Some mechanic I trained under years ago showed me that stuff and really like it for non moving parts.

i only have one question. if i bought my build as a pair of bikes for $50 and sold the extra for $40 do i count it as $10 or $25?

What is this bike frame? I dont remember if he said the name in the beginning and i had to resume this video from last nite a third into it.

I hear the dry spindle gang also enjoy your videos

Man the color of the bar tape and hoods would look amazing on a 87 centurion Ironman Miami vice color scheme model

"Reduces waste, Increases happiness" needs to be on a T-shirt! Haven't heard of Reflex; an info to share.

Yep!! THIS right here is what KZbin was made for!! I absolutely love this shittttt!!! Keep the passion high man!!

Alright fine. Ill finish my 97 rockhopper this summer.

Cleaning parts of video are so relaxing to watch so thank you!

That's a Nitto technomic stem awesome and yeah slime tubes suck sometimes you can't get all the air out and it's hell trying to get the tube and tire off the rim

Dhf2 front and rear or find a maxxis Larsen Tt 2.25 tire or maxxis icon 2.2 for the rear

Man what's also awesome besides the bike build is that you're wearing a MINOR THREAT OUT OF STEP T-SHIRT!!

I can't participate, because I don't have the funds for a bike or parts. But I did just recently upgrade my existing daily folding bike. So I am pretty stoked. Also very excited to see what y'all end up building this year!

Would love some “grease your spindles” merch

10/10

Fuc the HDR my guy

I didn't realize how much larger your instagram account is than this one! These videos are great, so I hope more people transfer over!

Loving this! Was talking to Adam a while back about your channel and we both agreed it was going to do you well, your approach and execution with your videos are informative especially for those who may be learning. The main thing I like about your channel is its quiet, feels like having a chat etc, I don’t find myself needing to turn your vids down as you have started shouting out of nowhere 😅 P.S. BRING BACK THE NAIL POLISH, DAMN THE HATERS

35 bucks? that's a score. and yep, when tyres don't fit, it hurts the soul.

Right on! I'm going into the city tomorrow to go dig through some parts bin to start getting my build together. Thanks for this, feeling super hyped on getting involved and building my first bike!

This would be sick with michellin slicks on it

The bike I'm building for the challenge also happens to have aluminum main tubes with steel lugs.

Love the vids, unfortunately dont have Insta so please please keep the KZbin vids coming. Interesting frame, wonder how it will ride

Team spindle grease send the love❤

That frame is super cool i never seen one b4

I think the A in spa-1 is actuator

Where can I get the rules for the Cheap Bike Build Off 2025? I'm actually working on a bike that may fit the rules.... But being the "Value Bike Advocate" all of my builds are "Cheap Bikes"... lol..

Look in your Marketplace Archives you may find it there... Thats where I go to look for these

Supa-cool look👌😊

Love your philosophy about using good quality old parts - I do my builds in exactly the same way for the same reasons., it just feels the right thing to do.

hey max fyi technomic stems are made by nitto

It’s a Nitto technomic stem

Great video‼️

Honestly surprised you get haters in the comments. This is as chill as a channel could get. Haters might be worse than bike thieves?
