I built my own version of this bike years ago, right at the begining of the Cyclocross bike craze. I used a free aluminum Vilano road frame and a Suntour 30 fork. It was a 1x7 drive train. I loved that bike. Someone actually bought it off me while I was out riding some local trails. I ended up taking an uber back home. Great video and thanks for the constant awesome content.
