There is a fake account impersonating me for this giveaway trying to scam commenters. We are not using WhatsApp to contact anyone and are not going to require any payment to receive the bike we will contact the winner after Dec 15 using the email submitted on the linked form in the video description.

[@davidmcclintock4900]

Hi I got messaged from them wanting payment for shipment. Thought it was a scam.

Thanks for letting us know, I was just about to reply…😅

I just messaged you on Instagram about this. I figured it was a scam!

*I needed to replace my old bike (it was 22 years old). I absolutely love the **Latest.Bike** . It rides great, I love the color, and it’s a good bike for the money!*

[@FDMedic78]

Also, on a side note, those spacers for the rotor go on the top of the rotor and not between the rotor and hub. You then bend up the edges around the screws to prevent them from backing out.

Ha, I thought so....

I used to own this very bike but had to sell it years ago. So cool to see it getting a new lease on life! Ive been a fan since your channel back when you were restoring hatchets and hammers. When you finally got into bikes, I was hooked! Keep up the great work! It’s inspired many no doubt.

[@zackhutchens1549]

The paint at 10:05 is drop dead gorgeous unbelievable. I love the art and creativity that go into these builds!

[@hardtailparty]

It turned out fantastic Rob. It was great reconnecting with you at the festival. Props for building a bike with s remote shop, that ain't easy.

[@irvsstella]

Loved watching the build, made me a little teary as I had a Super V900, my first true MTB. They say you never forget your first love xxx

[@paultrial]

The three washers that come with Shimano rotors are to be placed between the rotor and the bolts. They're there to prevent the bolts getting loose.

Your builds are so far beyond the others you see on the net ! You are a true artist and talented craftsman, Bravo ! 👏👏👏

[@steenelstruppejtersen-pejt4594]

Great work - as usual :) You have been a big inspiration. Actually, me and my son got the courage to restore a mountain bike as a therapy-thing. My son got autism and I suffer from a heart insuffience. But we managed to get a bikeup and running - and sprayed/painted it just like you - with spray.bike colours. Thank you. Unfortunately we cannot participate in the contest - as we are from Denmark, Europe. But thanks for many grat projects - and good luck :)

[@OsmanKErol]

Some bicycles are luckier than others. This one is exactly an example of such bikes. One little comment: you can close the dial adjuster's left-open top. These can easily be found on ebay. And with a little patience, the headshock shoe can be resetted, just like a brand new bike. Other than these, the paint job is magnificent. Congratulations.

[@denbo74]

Growing up in the 80s and 90s and this was THE bike to have. I remember my friends older brother had one and everyone wanted to come over to see it. I have a mint condition 2006 Rush I just modernized because I couldn’t part with it and never really rode it since I had kids. The Made In USA is pretty special. Have to admit taking those stickers off made me anxious 😬

[@decentdad1160]

Absolutely gorgeous wow. Love me a super V- have restored several now and there isn't anything like them. Cheers to whoever wins! Obviously I would love to but as long as this puppy gets shredded on the trails is what is most important!

[@kona0197]

Cannondale Super Vs should be painted one solid color. They deserve that level of respect.

[@edh7492]

I was 13 in ‘99, this was a lovely reminder of that era of mtb and the bikes I looked at in the magazines. Beautiful retro builds like this give me the fizz!

[@caseybertie2762]

Ooooooooooo!!!!! I had a super v 800!!!! So excited to watch this!! Gonna save it for later!

I'm restomodding a 2007 caad3 F1000 at the minute...I was sooo lucky to find the frame in perfect codition.. the paintwork is flawless.. the headtube starts black and fades into a silver mid down/top tube and fades into white on the stays..it's gawjusss.. I'm turning this into a city bike.. got carbon forks/seatpost/stem/crank/bars (all top shelf) and XTR gearing with some oldskool hope hubs on hope rims and Hope Minis to stop em..oh yeah..hope BB and headset too.. I adore this frame..this was one of my grail bikes growing up and i hold so much nostalgia for it.. I can't honestly wait until this badbwoy is fixed up and blasting.

[@jimbounassi1394]

I love your channel. You inspired me to restore a '96 Gary Fisher Paragon. I'm in the middle of it now and am so glad I found you. Some of these old frames deserve a new life and I'm so happy to have found a resource to help me in my own restoration. Thank you for your content and passion!

[@OvelNick]

The vinyl graphic application is always so satisfying on all your builds! It turned out awesome!!

[@TrailFeatures]

Loved how this came out! My Dad had a Super V 900 back in the day so the nostalgia was strong in this one.

[@pabloalbertodossantos4613]

You should try a schwinn homegrown! I'm from Spain , and i like a lot your builds, thanks to you , I restore a kona Muni mula and a marzocchi bomber Bam z2 from 1997. Recently they stole my apreciated schwinn moab sl from the year 2000...and It would be awesome to see you doing a retro homegrown!!! Thanks for your content! You are the BEST!!!

[@killerb4202]

Got all my entries in!! Ive recently rekindled my love for bikes this past year. Went from no bikes to 16, some classic cruisers, motorized bikes, and of course mountain bikes. My favorite bike is my 2018 Cannondale Cujo 2! That old Cannondale sure is a beauty for whoever wins it, id really love those tools!! Id use those alot and every day! Thanks Old Shovel for the great videos!

[@gtrwrstlr]

Just wanted to tell you that I enjoy the heck out of your restorations. I really wish there were shops around me that carry older/vintage MTBs. I would love to do one myself. Keep making awesome videos sir! We all enjoy them!

[@thomaseisen304]

Absolute stunning build , just two things that bothers me , first the disc's .... me personaly don't like those Shimano Disc rotors at all (material, performance, noise) , some Alligator Wind-Cutter or Ashima AiNeon would have been nice but please don't mind . Second the front brake ....you put some tape on the front to hold the brake line in place , for that Magura makes special cable ties ....pretty , inexpensive and easy to mount ! ....in the end that build gave me goose bumps ! The painting is awesome and today you don't see a SuperV that often, I got a similar build ....an old Fatmodule that is always compared with the older Steppenwolf Tycoon RC and I love those frames ! Realy well done mate !

[@coldstne1]

The end result wasn’t what expected, excellent workmanship!!! The V’s are my 90’s favorite rigs, especially the team issue Fulcrum!

[@ClubRideApparel]

The paint detail is amazing. Awesome work Rob!

[@tongpocalypse151]

Initial thought: oh man that frame with factory paint looks to be in decent shape there's no need to "restore" it. After seeing the result of the brush painting: oh my he's done it again this looks amazing!

[@EntropyOCD]

The ending put a smile on my face and an idea to get myself over to Sedona. Thank you for what you do.

[@mathisonnivens731]

I think blue Chester pedals are one of the most iconic mountain biking pedals and they look perfect on this beautiful build. Amazing job as always! 😍

[@SonjaTheDork]

I adore these old cannondales. I had a mid 90s rigid Killer V as my first proper bike and it really cemented my love for cycling. I still have the old frame lying around, but it's far too small for me nowadays.

[@breakdownbill1]

Beautiful,,I just found my 1996 Super V 400 only ridden 6 times. Almost perfect condition. I only need a new chain and inner tubes I think. These are amazing bikes and I can’t wait to ride it again

[@japanunfound]

Snap. I also have one. Perfect condition. Almost never ridden before I got it three years ago. Just added a dropper and new bars, tires etc. Fun ride. Light compared to the monsters we ride nowadays.

I know I ain’t ever going to win this but that doesn’t stop me from saying that I think this bike is like the crown jewel of your art - because what you have proved recently is that you don’t just restore bikes in an awesome way, you’re not just a talented and creative guy who can do things way better than anyone else out there, but that you are an artist indeed. An artist of life, who creates things that we, regular people stand in awe watching with the utmost joy. I think I’m safe to say this on behalf of the other 172K: thank you for doing this! Hope whoever wins this artwork will treasure it for life.

One of my dreambikes, i worked here in sweden at a lbs in 1998 and we were one of the only shops in sweden with cannondale.
