bicycle restoration no 2 - Stricker sportbike - part I

Watch the beginning of a detailed restoration and rebuilt of an old Sportbicycle from 1950 with new and some NOS parts.
Welcome to my second video - bicycle restoration no 2 - part I.
This time I restore or rebuild a „Stricker” Sportbicycle.
I got this bike very cheap from a collector in the neighboring village together with a Torpedo ladies bike last year.
The frame number is 479711. So it is from approx. 1950.
I did no further research because there is another focus on this project.
So it will be not a real restoration, but rather a rebuilt or a kind of restomod.
The hole rebuilt is divided into three parts.
In part I you will get to know the original bike. Pay attention on the beautiful shape of the frame and fork tubes (“hydroforming” from 1950) and other nice details.You will also see how it works (or it works not). Particularly interesting is the Fichtel & Sachs 3-speed derailleur and the fancy Wippermann front brake.
Finally you can see the complete disassembly. Only the frame, the fork and maybe the handlebar will be reused for this project.
But don’t worry, none of the other parts were thrown away!
Part II shows you the reshaping of the edges on the frame and fork after sandblasting and also some braze-ons. After that the frameset will get a fresh powder coating.
Besides of overhauling some parts like the front lamp you can also see the wheelbuilding with a nice pair of NOS hubs and Pacenti rims.
And in part III you can watch me how I put all this stuff together to a lovely bicycle.The final result will have some influences from old French bicycles (randonneur / porteur bike).
So stay tuned.
Also got a new cam, it’s a Sony FDR-AX53. It is great for close ups and fast movements.
The tools I use are from Gedore, Hazet, Wiha, Parktool and my grandfather.
If you have any questions about the video, the bicycle, the tools or the cam just ask me in the comments.
Hope you enjoy watching my new video.

[@michaelrck]

Another quality video with exceptional production and detail. Look forward to part 2. Gotta also add that your workshop is the most organised and tidiest I've ever seen.

[@ronaldbouwhuis]

Finally a proper bicycle restoration on KZbin. Can’t wait for part two.

[@bicyclerestoration3255]

Thank you very much! Working on part II, but it takes time

[@mintimperial]

Great stuff! Looking forward to part II. :)

[@bicyclerestoration3255]

[@JDnBeastlet]

[@tonytrevorrow1280]

[@FelipeLargacha]

[@oftankoftan]

[@jbratt]

Oh how I hated working on cotterpin cranks back in the day. I was so glad when those things became almost extinct.

[@ianallen2]

I used to restore bicycles now and again a few years ago. I bought a classic racer with the same gearing as this one and knew nothing about the toggle chain derailleur gears so sold it. It was a 1959 carlton race bike. Looking forward to the next installment. I might learn about this type of gearing. I had been building and repairing my own bicicles since the 1970's. Not now though.

[@coolmusic1579]

Your lucky the seatpost wasn't frozen in the frame. Can't wait for part 2. 👍

[@jinxterx]

Can't wait for Part 2! :D

[@phrayzar]

An unusual bike, and so many parts.

[@jarocho7]

I need the second part 😏 please!!!

[@tracyhowell4371]

Felicidades es un artista

[@domingosribeiro1283]

Espetacular 😍👏👏👏😁👍

[@bicyclerestoration3255]

Thank you 😉

[@builtbydylan8315]

That’s a crazy derailur I can definitely tell that it’s old

[@bicyclerestoration3255]

Very old yes 😄

[@flt528]

I'm shocked that he doesn't have a crown race puller:) Looking forward to p2!

[@100363Boil]

I'm very impressed with your thoroughness but in contrast it looked like a pretty clumsy removal of the seat post. I just finished rebuilding a Norwegian bike from 1944. It had been out in the weather near the ocean for many years. I'll tell you, removing screws and nuts was a whole other story than you show here.

[@josepirir5347]

esperando ver muy pronto la segunda parte

[@bobwilliamson5574]

Great video and no music in the background. Nice toolkit you have there.

[@jbirdperez6003]

Noiice very n.o.i.i.c.e

[@BayuHandal_Channel]

where is part 2? it's been 3 months. are you okay?

[@bicyclerestoration3255]

I'm fine, thank you! I'm working on it but i got a normal life with a job, a girlfriend and a lot of other more or less important things to do.. So stay tuned 😇

[@jeffrey1330]

I can't find part 2 from this Video. Can You please send me the Link?it's so interesting.

[@bicyclerestoration3255]

I'm sorry but i'm still working on it. Doing my best to bring it up soon ☝️

[@mousehi1]

@@bicyclerestoration3255, Well, I'll wait 2 part of this restoration!

[@cheesesandwich1236]

Spray on the penetrating oil the night before, it helps a lot.

[@antonioteixeira2216]

Nice 😃 goode 👍. Merci

[@chrisbliss2034]

With such a workshop, am somewhat surprised you didn't extract he cotter pins with a pin press. I wonder whether you have an original lining tool to refinish the lining on the frame?? Very therapeutic to watch ; thank you. 🙏

[@antonioteixeira2216]

Thanks 🚴you👍Looks. Nice. Merci. Bocu

[@moparlarsson]

Some week ago I took the pedals apart on my DBS ,cleaned lubed reinstalled blind (no youtube tutor.) day after this video pops up? Sorcery!

[@oldschoolfrank3836]

Good Job in part one. When comes part two? Greetings from Göttingen ( Germany)

[@bicyclerestoration3255]

Bald, arbeite dran aber gibt eben auch noch so viele andere Dinge abseits von KZbin zu tun 😉😬

[@santiagocejas3914]

My fantasy is to have a workshop like yours. How is it possible? 💕

[@josemauriciorigon1519]

fazendo uma crítica construtiva de seu trabalho ok... na minha opinião quando você recebe uma raridade como essa bicicleta é fundamental fazer o mínimo de reparo ou seja somente lubrificação externa e ajustes dos mecanismos , já reparei que em outros tutoriais seus você trocou peças, tirando toda a originalidade da bicicleta. Lembrando que é uma crítica construtiva , e não esquecendo que você é um excelente profissional ...

[@emausderratsuchende5447]

If you are working as your Workshop looks like than you are a Professional Mechanical....

[@pascalrichard2902]

Bon d'accord mais la suite 🚲🚲🚲

[@yosemitepark]

..Thank you...!

[@AllenSteez]

When is part 2 coming out?! I'm not sure how long I can wait!

[@bicyclerestoration3255]

😄 Soon, working on it 💪

[@MegaJairo88]

[@sebastianvonnebenan5260]

A bike from Bielefeld-Brackwede... :)

[@Blahshog]

Lovely machine, is this going to be an "as new" restoration? Looking forward to part two.

[@josepirir5347]

excelente ver como se puede restauras una hermosa pieza de la historia del la bicibleta

[@arnoldomarriojareyes6495]

Cuando la parte 2 ?

[@bicyclerestoration3255]

Working on it 💪

[@jbuckley2546]

One of the components is marked Made in Germany. So I'm guessing this bike was made before 1949 when West and East Germany were created? Fantastic channel btw.

[@westelaudio943]

The "made in Germany" label was used until 1973.

[@gwilletts]

Wow, so many moving parts, must be tough keeping track of everything for the rebuild. What kind of drivetrain is this??

[@bicyclerestoration3255]

Thanks for your comment! Only the frame and the fork will be left after the rebuilt. The drivetrain was from fichtel & sachs and is already sold, regret that already. The chain was in standard 1/2" x 1/8" size. Sorry english is not my first language. Greetings

[@monnysilva3102]

🚲👏👏👍

[@mbijan3443]

What the luquid for clean/wash the chain etc ?

[@antonioteixeira2216]
