Fluorescent is the name of the game to making this bike awesome, thanks to Spray.Bike, along with some awesome new V2 single compound OURY Grips and the new TerraOne RiderOne retro skin-wall tires. This bike goes from drab to rad.

I can only hope I can get just a fraction of your talent to restore a bike I rescued from the trash.

[@sonofafrica514]

You know the chill feeling when you turn on the nature channel on the weekend and it has your undivided intention. I get the same feeling when I watch Old Shovels works of art come together. We enjoy your video's, keep up the good work.

[@oldshovel]

Awesome thanks

It's on par with a mechanic's version of Bob Ross.

Hey Oldshovel, Thanks for inspiring me to make my old bike look and feel like new! Thanks alot!

Thanks

Same here ! Got 3 bikes in pprogress !

[@thihazaw1425]

I love that one

[@mnbv990]

I totally agree Wei Shi Loh...My Giant xtc sx is a little tired nowadays, but I realise now that it just needs to be 'shovelled'. I don't need a new bike.

[@markhogan9435]

U just gave me new inspiration, to rebuild, put my talent to better use, helping my grandson who is just getting into bikes, rebuild some hes found. Thank you.

[@reapanomin899]

Hmm,let's see. No music. No talking. Sound of tools being used. Technically,you've just made an ASMR video that cyclists in particular would enjoy. Also,this restoration only made the bike more 90s-esque than it was,in terms of the paint job.And I really enjoyed watching this.

[@oldshovel]

Awesome thanks. All you said was what I wanted to do. 😁

[@JohnSmith-yw4bh]

Haha. Right. That crisp mic when he puts on the stickers. Are stickers expensive?

[@tigoat2]

Reapa Nomin8 Great videos, either way! I love working on my bikes in silence. Just get absorbed into the work 👍🏻👍🏻

[@TheSmartCat1]

100% agree!

[@reapanomin899]

[@johnjudge8436]

Again, thank you for these moments of peace.

[@petek1pml746]

I got my first mountain bike during that era, the colors were bright. I love what you did with this. Combo of bare metal and bright neon really works.

[@TheSmartCat1]

Your videos should be a MUST WATCH to evercy bicycle mechanic in the world. So much love for your work it's something we, mechanics , need to learn. Best regards. Missed your voice again!

[@oldshovel]

Thanks Oscar. On the voice sometimes the sounds of the restoration are just so good I can just sit and listen while I watch. 😁

[@Br4m76]

I think I've found a new idea to run a bike store specializing in upgrade or restoration in my place. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@oldshovel]

Lol. I’ve thought of doing just the same. 😁

[@northernairmtb4183]

Yeah my plan is to have a bike shop where I buy used mountain bikes and restore them and upgrade them.

[@Br4m76]

@@oldshovel you can do it.

[@mattcucci5490]

My first mtb was a early 90's Raleigh Stutterbump with highlighter yellow accents. Thanks for the nostalgia.

[@AngelJul]

Congrats Oldshovel! It really has that 90's look! Perfect job, thank you!

[@oldshovel]

Thanks

[@gregkellow4723]

Eye catching! Nice job on the seat also. I just restored a 20 year old Selle Comfort saddle. Worst part was finding a comparable foam to fill in a worn section on the left cheek (motorcycle seat foam worked!). From the amount of wear it must have been someone's favorite saddle! Thanks for the content, very inspiring.

[@oldshovel]

Thanks. Good tip on the foam. I have a few that could use some foam.

[@martinbridgewater]

It’s a pleasure to watch you work! 👍🏼

[@ryandirkse4374]

Amazing!!! I can't gey enough of these videos. But I really love it when you talk about the bike while building it.

[@gergelystechnicmodels8565]

I love what you did to the saddle! Great job once again.

[@reapanomin899]

I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that he actually cared to rebuild the saddle,when most bike restorers would just get a new saddle.

[@oldshovel]

Thanks. Sometimes it just feels right.

[@gavinjacobs685]

I was just about to say the exact same thing!! I love that saddle.

[@martinbridgewater]

Another stunning build. It’s a pleasure to watch your videos and watch how you work. 👍🏼

[@techjunkie68smusicandtech56]

That looks stunning!

[@gengen5607]

Very relaxing to watch and to hear the sound of workshop

[@aaronbehindbars]

Everytime I find a really cool bike, Rob's already done a rebuild of one on his channel. Never disappoints! The bike I just found is a 1991 Technium Peak, so the top of the range model. It's an absolute time capsule that I am not even kidding was never rode. There is zero, zip, zilch wear on the chainrings and cogs. The tires still have mold release compound on every square inch of tread. The original Ritchey Megabite tires are incredibly supple. I've never seen a bike in this good of shape in the 20 years I've been buying and selling vintage mountain bikes. It's going to be hard letting go of this one. As always, it's a pleasure to was these videos, this one especially with my Peak sitting in front of my TV.

[@anjkovo2138]

You have passion in what you do that i admire

[@Lcn26r]

What a stunning build. Given me a lot of inspiration for an upcoming build I have too! Exellent

[@ltdees2362]

Just beautiful once again! Since first coming across your channel, your videos have given me the confidence to tune and adjust virtually every aspect of our bikes verses taking to my local bike shop. I found a wheel tuning stand along with a bike repair stand at a yard sale for $10 bucks and have learned how to re-spoke wheels...The joy of discovering new skills after retirement! Thanks Old shovel 💗

[@oldshovel]

Thanks Tom

[@szymonkowalski6215]

[@MikeM-uy6qp]

I've got a 1999 GT Rebound in Solar Citrus (chartreuse basically), that the current bike shortage/price inflation is forcing me to refurbish. I watch videos like this to give me courage, but all they do is intimidate me, and not simply because I don't have any of your tools. Otherwise it's a pleasure to watch.

[@bicycle_repair_man9377]

I recently found your chanel and am currently binge-watching all of your videos. It's like a bikebuilder's ASMR. Thank you so much for your awesome work! Oh, and one thing about the Raleigh: The original paintjob on this bike was killer! Seeing that getting sanded off was really painful to watch ;-)

We must be the same age cause I remember most of the bikes that you restore..amazing transformations and colors schemes!! 😎👍🚲🚲🚲 Hi I'm near Toronto BTW! Years ago a neighbor put out a womans classic Univeral Pegasis bike. I wanted to restore it for my wife and with little experience and new paint it came out great!! I ride it more than she does love the old style bikes! Now I've collected over 10 bikes since then..people just leave them out for FREE its like an addiction when I see them!! I subbed to your channel enjoy learning and of course watching these bikes come back to life!! Great JOB !!! 👍

I love the paint job it reminds me of Raleigh + Yeti paint job back in 90s

[@qwertyazerty2137]

beauitiful lugged frame with these side cable cable guides. The fluo-bare steel color shceme is contrasting really well. And these pure 90s hologram decals are toping it all up. another great build. The only thing I would add is maybe a front mech chain guide and apply some oracal protective patches on the cranks because surely the paint will get scrachted off fast. especially when riding in ordinary sneakers.

[@BladeRicsi]

I think, the bike which restored by you, are more reliable like brand new. I have a buddy who had a new bike, he changes the sprockets in every 4000km-s, my old schwinn 30PDG still has original sprocket, but it has 40.000km in it, since 92'.
