Great videos fellas! I had no idea there was a tool for greasing the headset bearing. My favourite part of the video has to be the humour😂. It makes the videos what they are! Keep up the great work! I also learnt that there is a cir-clip in the cast hubs.

[@MXSkillShack]

No Albert, thank YOU!! We appreciate you greatly. We’re so happy to hear you are going to attempt this and use the techniques. That is awesome! You got this! Tony // MXSS

[@jakesmith6460]

You have my respect, you guys are men of your word, calling me out for the baby elephant reference haha Once again, amazing video! I appreciate you guys' willingness to re-use the stock hubs and showing how to resurrect an old set of wheels vs just tossing them and replacing them completely. In addition to the cost savings you mentioned, it also helped me learn how they work, and how to properly maintain them to get the most life out of them too (and my tires and tubes), stock or aftermarket

[@MXSkillShack]

You know Jake, I’m not going to miss an opportunity for a baby elephant… It’s quite awesome you’re learning and seeing the value in what it is we’re doing. I’m not certain you have yet so I wanted to send a reminder. This VERY bike could end up in your garage. You just need to MAKE sure you sign up at www.mxskillshack.com and tell your friends! I’m sure they would also appreciate the information and the possibility of winning a bike once we complete them. Tony // MXSS

You guys are awesome to watch. Always learning something. My list is probably too long to mention here. I'm truly a two smoker die hard (which is one of the things I love about your channel), but would yall consider working your magic on a 2001 Cannondale MX400?

[@MXSkillShack]

Thanks Josh! But really you’re the awesome one…. Glad to hear you’ve learned something. That’s the idea. I remember those cannondales and how they were a beast, but they seemed to always have mechanical issues at the nationals. I think Keith Johnson was one of the riders. Well we’ve got some ideas brewing about future bikes and utilizing one I’m quite fond of and know inside and out - ‘05-‘08 CRF450. If you haven’t make sure you sign up at www.mxskillshack.com and tell your friends! I’m sure they would also appreciate the information. Tony // MXSS

[@RebelDev86]

i love the videos keep up the good work i can wait to see this bike done and i have raced dirt bikes is the past and watching you guys come together and build this old school bike to make it look new is awsome.

In order for Uncle Tony to be a proper Vanna Brown, you need to put him in an evening gown!!!

He was wearing the proper underwear at least

Thanks Beau! Check out the 3DP link below in video. Also if you haven’t be sure to sign up at MXSKILLSHACK to get into the running for this roach! Tony // MXSS

@@MXSkillShack thank you. I’ll head over and get some👍 what clutch arm will you be using? You guys mentioned there was a road bike clutch arm? Just wondering what that’s off. Thanks again

[@coloradodirtbike5930]

You dudes are killing it Bros. How much longer you think until this bike will be finished and given away? I'm a subscribed member, dude I'm crossing my fingers to hope to when those dunlops.

[@MXSkillShack]

And we sure as hell appreciate you! No specific date yet. It’s been a bit of a struggle getting the shop up and running, and figuring out what the heck we are trying to do officially as a team (learning one another) But we are finding some serious momentum now. In the future we’ll have better clarity on questions like this, because things will become more streamlined for us and easier to present in a more professional manner (like mXrevival giveaways, with set start and end dates) In the meantime, we appreciate your patience and your support. It means the world to both of us. One thing is for certain, however. We will deliver! -Charles // MXSS

[@donschoffer8986]

How much is the entry for this cr and where can I apply

[@MXSkillShack]

Hey Don. Our website is www.mxskillshack.com - these giveaways are a little bit different than the mXrevival giveaways. Same over the top level of quality, however. Thanks for asking!

[@Bryski772]

Right on amigos those red wheels look sick. Can’t wait to see the completed build keep rocking 🤘🏼🤘🏼💪🏻💪🏻

[@MXSkillShack]

Massive, thank you, Mr. Price!

[@mikehudg2209]

Hey guy's !! Absolutely love the wheel lacing demonstration - top notch work Uncle Tony 👍 what i like most about skill shack is Charles and Tony back up what they say with equal hands on work !!! Lots of knowledge on this channel, always looking forward to the next one 👍

[@MXSkillShack]

Hey Mike! Thanks for hanging with us buddy. Well we’re glad you have found the value in it. Many ways to skin a cat as they say. These techniques are something I learned through my career as a professional race mechanic / bike builder and have been game changers for me and how I build bikes or even maintain them. Tony // MXSS

[@hunterowensby]

Well I could talk about everything I learned about building beautiful wheels in detail but I turkey learned how much I like Tony’s nonstop dirty jokes 😂😂

[@MXSkillShack]

That’s Charles’s fault…. Glad you at least learned SOMETHING from myself. Focus already 😂. Also make sure you sign up at www.mxskillshack.com for your chance at winning the yz and everything else we’ll build. Whaaaattt! Now that’s dirty! Tony//MXSS

[@Sweendawg32]

Uncle Tony , have you ever ran into any issues with the wheels getting out of true or offset after pressing the tires onto the wheels ? Reason I ask is bc of the force against the spokes while your pressing down. Maybe I’m just overthinking it …. Looking forward to the next video boys!!!!💪

[@MXSkillShack]

Mike Honcho!! No sure I have not. It’s pretty stout once all is set and spoke tension is proper. Great question amigo! Tony // MXSS

[@DSHoss]

Kudos to you for wearing the hearing protection. This from a 53-year old guy who didn't (and should have).

[@MitchFlynnMatt]

Now I know it's so much cheaper to buy a rim and use the original hub instead of getting a whole set

[@MXSkillShack]

It certainly can be! Almost half in some cases 👀

[@mmazz30]

Great episode as usual Charles and Uncle Tony. You're a natural in front of the camera, Charles......Uncle Tony has become the perfect partner. I've done a few tyres and rims but picked up a few good tips from Uncle Tony......work smarter, not harder applied here! How the f@#k you aren't getting more views when there are other sh1t shows with no idea is beyond me. Props to your sponsors again........

The entertainment from watching the two of you guys showing useful skills on building bikes and just the crap you guys give each other is absolutely the best! You guys make it fun and enjoyable. You guys have helped so much on my 98 KX250 restoration! The Dunlop stickers would look great on my KX build!

We appreciate that feedback! We enjoy doing this, but one of biggest takeaways is that folks are actually employing what they learned. That’s awesome! We’re just two dudes giving each other crap in a garage working on bikes. It’s rad!
