Full Restoration Vintage roadbike Complete process

[@michelemarchese259]

I am very pleased to see that there are still people who know how to appreciate steel bikes, the origin of everything, especially because which cannot be forgotten it. You did an excellent recovery/restoration job, and even more so because you use it. Very Good work!

[@johnwilson230]

My road bike a Peugeot from early 80 s I restored and ride daily steel is real I love the old steel road bikes there simplicity well-made construction is a true statement to the test of time .these new over priced carbon rubbish I whoukdnt entertain no thanks 😊 new vid and rebuild

[@mikefoster3901]

Nice work Another bike saved 🙌

[@chrisallen2005]

Got to give you credit. I would never put that much effort into a Canadian Tire bike.

[@willbaren]

That’s amazing. Most people would have walked past such a rust bucket but you made it beautiful again. Cheers.

[@Izrarestoworks1218]

Thanks 👍

[@MrKlop6]

за такую низкую цену я бы ни за что не прошёл мимо . я бы купил его сразу

[@Engineer_Eric_59]

Amazing job. I just picked up a vintage Trek for 100.00 circa 1980's I need to do the same thing. Thank you for a straight forward video.

[@MDToBe]

Great video! I'm glad the algorithm recommended this to me on my home page. Keep up the great work Izra! 💪🏽🚲

[@jaycahow4667]

Nice job but here are some things I would have done different. 1) Use some grease or anti seize compound on your seatpost, stem, pedals,chain rings and bottom so they come apart easier and keep water out. 2) If the fork chrome cleaned up nice then I would have masked it off and not painted over it. 3) Use some grease or oil on all cables and in housings for lubrication and to keep water out. 4) Would have put Front Quick Release on left side. 5) Would have put Clear Coat over your paint job. 6) Would sprayed lots of WD-40 in the frame and fork tubes and bottom to try to prevent more rust forming. 7) Would turn your seat clamp around and raise your post it a bit as it seems too low. Thanks for taking the time to make the video and saving an older bicycle.......

[@thomastaylor3299]

Compleatly agree on all your points

[@laszloszedlmajer1013]

It is nice to see correct helping hand on internet

[@jstar1000]

Last but not least, pick a higher end bike to start with lol.

[@samtatge8299]

Cool! Original saddle.

[@DavidCadena-h1l]

Appreciate the attention to detail. Your workshop is an extension of that mindset. You restored that bike to it's former beauty. Well done Sir 👏

[@lunatico01111979]

Hi, I'm a restoration enthusiast like you and I work mainly on Italian racing bikes from the 60s and 70s. you did a great job and you work very well. greetings from Italy.

[@lonerbikes]

nice restoration bro, this is only 30 min of video materiał but in real there are hours of work regards from Poland :)

[@dinodaniel2237]

Excellent video. Well done

[@mohammedirfan660]

Absolutely amazing! Got to learn a lot of things while watching the video! I hope I get my Miele restored to this level! Great work!

[@MarioCañez-v1t]

Nice work,, I got on old Raleigh it's around 70s ,I'm gonna try to fix it up like you,,,

[@samtatge8299]

Nice paint job!

[@PopInCycles]

Great to watch… really enjoyed this. I’ve just started my own channel and put a few short edits up. I will be attempting some proper content in January. Good luck with your channel

[@lindajesse8250]

That’s what we call a budget beauty. Well done.😊

[@paulosergiodeoliveira7228]

Amazing job, congrats

[@cyrusalthor8583]

Excellent job!

[@litvinenkoalexander5331]

Excellent job, warm greetings from the Netherlands

[@jamiepeirce526]

Sick, great work.

[@vueltaskelter414]

Great. But the drops should always be level -parallel with the ground - not pointing down.

[@JustClaude13]

I might disagree. The bars should be angled to meet your hands in a natural position that keeps your wrists straight. For most people, with the bars at the correct height, that may be level, but not everyone is built the same.

[@latortue4352]

Magnifique belle restauration 👍👍

[@flyin18t]

Awesome job!

[@rumenripe]

cheap bikes are really fun to restore and rebuild

[@JohnRadford-iy7db]

Well done saved another bicycle

[@jakubszablewski2337]

Looks so amazing. Love it

[@JavierGonzalez-oe1qq]

Good job sir...high fives for your persistence and meticulousness

[@bicicletasantigasdoendrigo6941]

Belíssimo! Bravo 🎉

[@godfreytan1001]

The bike you got is in much better condition than the vintage Francesco Moser which I bought (from a bike shop that wanted to throw it away) and restored. The Italian bottom bracket was the worst part of the bike to dismantle.

[@antoniolosito8431]

Eccellente lavoro con una base di ottimo acciaio!!!

[@bikelab5079]

Great job!!!

[@journeyquest1]

Last road bike i owned was similar but brand new.

[@mohammedirfan660]

Absolutely amazing! I am trying to restore a CCM Concorde. Struggling to get the bottom crank arm removed as it is stuck and I don't have the tools to move forward. Hopefully I can get something soon to move forward

[@scoutandlouie4652]

reverse thread?

[@Keith-ui4tp]

Awesome 👍

[@Anewagecycle]

I still rid a steel bike a surly crosscheck its also my gravel bike full utilitarian bike but would still like a road bike .

[@sylrecyclevelos8999]

Good djob 👌

[@patrickcollenot2736]

il es tout simplement magnifique il es plus bau qu un velot de course actuelle bravo

[@jaroslawgorny]

Great rebuild, congratulations! Just a newbie question: old 27" rear wheel was a freewheel, and new 28" has a cassette, right? And you can use the same old derailleurs just fine? Asking because I've got an old Peugeot road bike, and 27" wheels on it are crap (also, it's not so easy to get new tires in this size any more), so I'm considering switching to 28", but I'd like to keep original derailleurs. Thanks in advance, and congrats once again!

[@Izrarestoworks1218]

Mine I keep it original my derailleurs no problem but you need to know your old cassette how many speed if 6 or 7speed ..I change it to 28wheel same to you struggling to find 27wheel and tire..

[@PfadiHH]

You‘re sitting far to low on the bike!

[@jonderby2371]

Shut up, know it all

[@deltafour1212]

Totally inspired. When you bought the new rear tire, did you keep the same number of gears for the rear cassette as the original or did you upgrade?

[@ademkurt3326]

Burda hersey güzel ama fren kollarini degiştirdin ayaklarida degiştirseydin bide bisikletin arka dişli orginal kullansaydin daha kaliteliydi

[@Garyskinner2422]

My old kona ,the handle bar stem i rusted into the frame. Just wondering how to remove

[@Izrarestoworks1218]

Spray W40 lubricant and leave it for one day..to soften the the rust...

[@xx-om5de]

Well done, however acrylic primer isn't best option, i would have used reactive primer

[@lionel3604]

Nice job ! ...But it seems a little bit short for you ;)

[@kevinsebastiandiaz6268]

Me ubiera gustafo wue le isieras las mismas pegatinas. O calcomanias . Para que se viera un poco mas original

[@JoeyMesa]

Do the gears work? Seems like it was stuck in the hard gears upon test riding...

[@alexandercamara2026]

It is all about "THE JOURNEY "... I thoroughly enjoyed " THE JOURNEY " from beginning to end..! Every Vintage Ride deserves a chance reguardless of its badge. Beautiful work My Man..! 👏👌 By the way , Just Subscribed... 🙏

[@scottjohnston664]

Cool, but what product did u use prior to applying primer? Where did u obtain rare brake lever hoods? Thanks.

[@jaycahow4667]

He tossed the old brake levers with top out cables and put new brake levers and hoods with hidden out cables.

[@danudirgantoro3827]

Beautiful job! Is this a size 27 frame? I'm also restoring the 27 frame but having trouble finding a brake set. i want one like you have

[@michaelquinones-lx6ks]

NICE!

[@Паша-б6д]

bravo video

[@rogerhancock8732]

This is the second "restoration" video by Izra I have viewed. Again he did a good job returning a bike to a good rider condition but a restoration no to many things not done right or blatantly left off. Though as far as restoration is concerned my comment is negative it does not take away the mans skills at building good rider bikes. My definition of a restored bike includes all original emblems and parts, paint schemes and colors.

[@Emot10ns]

I agree he should've done the original paint scheme and printed new stickers, but I hard disagree on reusing old parts especially if he's gonna be riding it. This isn't a repurposed toaster, so rider safety > old unsafe original parts. As long as he replaced the parts with new, same style parts it's fine tbh. I think it makes sense for bikes because bikes are customizable anyway and the parts on it could've not been the original "spec" anyway.

[@rogerhancock8732]

@@Emot10ns true. I will soon be tackling a 60s JC Higgins bike plan to keep all the ordinal parts if I can. Maybe I will do a short progress video on it

[@yarmar97]

a steal tbh xD

[@headbreak13]

Just one question : how many did you buy it ? But just awesome job dude, keep doin thing like that 👏👏

[@jptrainor]

Is this and old Supercydle from CanadianTire or is there another "Supercycle" in the world?

[@chrisdonoghue374]

Where are the decals?

[@alexshtein2487]

А не проще было раму купить, и уже потом на неё этот хлам накидать?

[@jasondehn2024]

Back in my day I would wind the handle bar tape from top to bottom. And have the bung to fasten it.?

[@jaycahow4667]

When you wind it top to bottom hand pressure causes the overlaps to separate over time.

[@oliverb.6332]

I'm asking me why are the words didn't rustet?

[@rodolfo467]

28:59 exelente merecía una nueva vida

[@douglasfortin9711]

I would have bought that only because it has a chain guard. Who thought eliminating those was a good idea?

[@Maison1650]

Montez un peu la selle !

[@GilbertoGallego-v4h]

[@hermannecker6257]

Schon mal etwas von Abbeizern geröhrt?

[@hermannecker6257]

@bikee1394 ich bin Deutscher in Deutschland und da ist die Landessprache Deutsch und wer hier etwas publik machen will sollte auch zumindest Deutsch verstehen! Ich käme nie auf die Idee in englischsprachigen Ländern ein Video auf Deutsch zu präsentieren! YOU UNDERSTAND,

[@hermannecker6257]

@bikee1394 ganz normal schreiben so wie Du? Ich hatte etwas zum Thema in meiner Muttersprache geschrieben weil sich mir die Haare aufstellten bei dieser dilettantischen Behandlung des armen Rahmens! Und Du beleidigst mich das ich nicht englisch könnte? DANKE!

Şahtı şahbaz oldu, aluminyum gidonu ve krom kaplı furşu boyamak hemde spray boya ile, 3 gün sonra atar

[@james241ish]

Yeah good, but not a resto with 700c rims... They are smaller and don't look the same as 27s...

[@MrJepo100]

pump your tyres up

[@journeyquest1]

Why not use a little penetrating fluid ahead of time? PS You forgot the Supercycle sticker.

[@TV-it5sq]

40달러는 너무 비싸게 주고 샀ㄴ0

[@velvetbikes]

Great video but what an absolute waste of time and materials on a crappy dept-store bike. You overpaid by $40. BBut hey you do you. Oh PS your seat clamp is on backwards.

[@ahmadabdulwahid9148]

Keep 27 wheels

[@lindajesse8250]

I can hear you scratching your head.😮

[@TheRokko66]

I dont like when old bikes are resprayed. Why not preserve its history? The bike had a nice colour scheme and a chrome fork! The new wheels with black spokes absolutely do not match with the old frame. Modern brake levers but still the old brake calipers is a no-go. This bike has lost its classic character and the newer parts ruin what was left of it.
