Building Retro 90's Mountain Bikes From Scrap Parts!

In this episode we begin our 90's banger bike project; An attempt to build a cool resto-mod 90's mountain bike with a budget of $300NZD. Our search for the needed 90's frames and all the used parts we will need to build these beasts starts with our friends at Around Again Cycles, a mecca of used bikes, components and most importantly knowledge and advice! Pablo and I were like kids in a candy store as we dug through a seeming endless stock of every part of a bike you could imagine.. This is going to be a fun series!

Can’t wait for part 2

[@TheBadIdeaBros]

Thank you so much for your support! 😁 The builds for these bikes will be up next, which we are very excited about. Thank you for taking the time to comment!

OMG that is an amazing amount of old bikes, what a great concept Around Again Cycles have.👍 (catchy name too) Can’t believe the waste that is generated by the population Can’t wait to see how they turn out.

[@TheBadIdeaBros]

Mate, we were honestly a bit overwhelmed when we started. 😂 I don't think I've ever seen so many bikes in one place before! It was a heck of a lot of fun though. 😁

[@RideTheByroads]

@@TheBadIdeaBrosI can see from your reaction you were like a kid in a candy store. 😅🚲

[@TheBadIdeaBros]

Haha, 100%! We spent waaaayyyy to long agonizing what frames we were going to use as there were a lot of viable options, but I feel like we both made solid choices. 😁

I hope Pablo sticks with the original colours. It shouts 90's

[@TheBadIdeaBros]

I can confirm that these frames will be left in the state they were found. All about that patina with these retro builds! 😁

[@BigBert]

haha I have and still ride an old diamond back never given me any trouble. but wow it weighs a tone compared to the new bikes 😎👍

[@TheBadIdeaBros]

They don't make them like they used to, that's for sure! 😂 But yes, solid and heavy for sure. Looking forward to seeing what it's like on trail!
