I don't know if I'm more impressed with the editing or the craftsmanship. Oh, i know, I'm absolutely blown away by the fact that you managed to make such a crazy mismatched drivetrain work. 11 speed Campagnolo Athena shifter with an 11 speed shimano 105 derailleur on a 9 speed MTBish cassette... Wow, just wow!

Pro restoration and nice footage. I’ve refurbished a few of these, sympathetic restorations shall we say and found them a bit of a pain to work on although I do love the bikes. Built like tanks and can carry a decent payload. I still ride one of my folding Stowaways regularly and I’m in my 50’s 👍🏼

This is the best 16 minute bike video I've ever watched on YT! The riding was definitely the icing on the cake. That's how these things should be ridden. Well done! This video deserves millions of views!

That's the Nitanium frame ! Probably just mostly marketing hype, but it IS good Ritchey tubing.

Love this, personally I would use new Odyssey twisted pc pedals with new hold fast straps.

Reynolds 501 and 531 same great steel

You really had to give er ay damn!

i've been binging bike restoration videos all week and this one is head and shoulders the best. stunning bike and amazing filming

From a viewers point of view, I personally think that your videos would be more enjoyable to watch without the stop motion transitions, and sound effects also background music

Why didn’t you service the Sturmey Archer dynohub. Its a 30 min job

What wheels and bottom bracket were used for this. I am staring a project similar to this on a 70s Schwinn Varsity.

Young boy , brilliant work .

Wish I had a workshop like this

Hello! Do you have the calcs to print? I have the same bike and I want to restore it. Thanks!

I had one like that when I was a teenager in the 1980's - took it to the park and shredded it until it bent and broke, then threw it in the river

Absolutely beautiful work. A genuine restoration undertaken with love and respect. Fantastic job.

Great bike stand

Super curious about which BB you ended up going with! Nice video

Great video, and great reuse of a classic frame , I have a question regarding the Campagnolo shifters and Shimano’s 105 rear derailleur, how did you get them to index ?

The sound at the beginning of the video❤

Amazing job. Very skilful restoration. Well done.

Beautiful and what a bike and video jobs, congratulation. Thank you for the inspiration.

LOVE the video style. Lots of other restorers/restomodders out there take note!

Nice build and excellent video!

Everything building good, but... it's not a modern gravel.

Hola me interesaría saber que ancho de rueda le colocó.

Great job and filming. But I won't be changing the colour of my 1977 Holdsworth Record,maybe just the tyres,to make a gravel bike.:)) Nice to see at least one other Record though,will be keeping mine-as is :))

Nice build! What did you use for the bike stem?

Nice restore bud but these stunning bike are made for gears just my point of view but yea nice work.😊

WOW bro that frame could use a much better paint job and brand decals and clear coat 😊

What the size square taper bottom bracket

What the size of the square taper bottom bracket

Amazing work matte. I just have to say that a red or white handlebar tape would be such a better fit :)

I'm just sad about the paint in the bottom bracket threads 🥲

Glorious, gorgeous build.

Brilliant! First one of your vids I’ve seen and as soon as it started I thought it looked like Victoria Dock village, but suppose it could be anywhere then boom, the flood barrier. Used to love riding round Hull, looks like great cycling infrastructure now, much improved. More of this please!

👍👍👍👍👍

Lovely. Beautiful resto film. Thanks.

I would have kept og paint just wax it, And cut handlbars

whyvdont you show cyclcross bike. in 77, there were no gravel bikes.

That's an amazing restorarion and impressive skills. However, I liked much more the original paint.

Back in '78 I had a new Holdsworth 'Mistral' tourer in purple/white from the Holdsworth, Penge shop in South East London - indeed their SE warehouse from the 70s (now a lock up storage unit) is a 5 minute walk from where I now live... Did some serious mileage on that bike as a teenager.!

what tires did you put on?

What kind of 'brush' did you use on the frame? Did it affect paint or just remove rusty spots? Thanks

Very beautiful bike and a priceless restoration job I'm very impressed 😁😁

fantastic

Work of art!

Im guessing he used 650b wheels?? I have a 76 italvega im wanting to do the same with

Brilliant, thank for this video, brought back memories of my paper round on an identical BSA bicycle. Wheeling down Ladbroke Grove, trying to get back home and off to school 😅

Another lovely old bike brought back to.life and not on the scrap heap great restore all the best😊
