Probably one of the best frame paintign videos on here - well done !

[@charlesmansplaining]

Nice to see that bike is getting a new life and not ending up in a landfill.

[@justride9872]

26" to 700 28 wheel. Nice restoration

[@marcusathome]

Paint job is really beautiful, and I also like the idea to route the cables internally and take off the brake bosses on the seat stays. Honestly surprised to see the road rim brake fits on the bridge and reach the rims - neat! Not so sure about the choice of components: If it was me I had rebuilt the wheels with the XT hubs that came with the bike (and which are high quality and serviceable), and complemented it with a used 9- or 10-speed Ultegra group set - perfect match for that frame and budget friendly. The bar tape is wrapped too loose and will come off all too soon.

[@tommyhernandez9425]

Outstanding job on the rebuild brother. The paint job that you did looks awesome! I really like how you did the red & black two tone style. That looks really cool. I hope you enjoy riding your new bike brother.

Superb. An amazing refurbishment. I like your taste in colours too. Well done!

Well done, a unique bike no doubt, albeit there's nothing "S-Works" about it 😅

I have some Shimano RSX components from 1997 , new old stock made in Japan . These perform very well for the money .

Bro the result is stunning, don't listen to the people critics. I really enjoyed watching the video, hope that u will do others like this one

Great job men! Only thing i would improve is the applying the handle bar tape with the oposite overlap as you did because it tends to gets ruinned faster like that.

That’s a sick spray can paint job. Looks professional. Great edit and hard work on the restoration paid off nicely

[@rgsbikelife984]

Thanks 👍 glad you enjoyed it

Nice work!

[@tatsukawa45]

Since the spokes of the rear wheels are radially knitted, there is a risk of damage due to poor drive transmission efficiency. The rear wheel should be tangent knitted because the shaft torque is applied. Since the front wheel does not have shaft torque, either radial knitting or tangent knitting is acceptable.

[@SJworne]

Holy shit you're right! Will be like riding an elastic band 😂

Excellent...🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@nyreppin1]

That looks great! How did you find wheels to fit the rear of the bike? Was that hole you installed the new rear brake into an industry standard at the time for 700c wheels?

[@rgsbikelife984]

Yes i convert it into Roadbike, former 26er to 700ctires

You can do this to early Cannondales. Have a 1986 M300 frame, polished out, running first gen, medium reach Shimano 600 brakes, Shimano R500 rims. Run Shimano 105 derailleurs. Kept the fork so I can run 32mm tyres and mudguards. 😎

[@anthonywolverton9833]

Yeah, really early MTBs would work much better for this!

[@jmoyet]

2 different frames. The first one has cables externally, and the other frame has internal cable routing

[@rejuan99]

@rejuan99 it's a different frame. The old one has external cables rputing. "Finished one has internal cable routing.

[@Jarkkopauk1917]

@@rejuan995:45 if u stop the video , u can see new drilled holes and also the marks on top of the bar where he cut the old cable holders off

[@Fugitive_8]

You know, the funniest things about these restoration videos is either its not really broken its just hardened mud or those are 2 different bikes because the chain stay is higher than the previous one it turned from External to Internal and no you cant simply drill a hole into a frame and make it into an internal, and how a frame using a 26” suddenly switched to 700c-25”

[@theflow5269]

It's not an m5 s-works, but it is the same frame. Internal works with just holes if you run outer cable all the way through. And 700c will fit in the majority of 26" frames no problem. All that's needed is a brake calliper with a suitable drop. The spray job is pretty tidy for rattle cans. Nice job really. Would I ride it, no. Do I think it was worth the effort, not really. But if he's happy with the end result, then kudos to him.

[@Fugitive_8]

I dont think you understand nor have you done a restoration because 1. External > Internal isnt as easy as cake you have to insert whats called a routing and it has to be precise these cannot be done by just anybody and takes either the manufacturing themselves or top of the line mechanics because its the same how you cant just turn a rim frame to a post mount disc frame 2.the routing holes are precisely placed and done no signs of it being cut, damaged, nor touched and it wasnt showed it suddenly appeared as the video went on 3. Rust isnt a magical piece of dirt you can remove its decayed metal the one used in the video is WD-40 and WD-40 doesnt take it off like poof it eats the metal and the frame is untouched (rust takes over 37% of the frame in the video and the rust fails to look natural) 4. Damage in the video he does sever changes and vigorous tactics such as hammering it down to remove the headset in the video it looks perfectly fine but in reality it should been dented heavily or cracked seeing that the M5 is an old and thin bicycle 5. Accept reality 97% of restoration videos are cap and thats a fact each and every one of these videos are cap and only a small amount of 3% remains to be real restoring

[@theflow5269]

@Eobard_Thawne. This is exciting, where to start. I understand fairly well, having spent 20 years as a professional cycle mechanic, shop manager, and ultimately training mechanics for a large chain of retailers. As I said previously; internal cable routing can be achieved easily, if not correctly, by simply drilling holes and running outer cable for the full run. Many steel frames in the 80s and 90s achieved internal brake cable routing this way. If the old cable is pulled out without a follower it was a proper pain threading a new one through. What are you wittering on about rust for? The frame shown is an aluminiun alloy frame, with no apparent signs of any corrosion. Aluminium corrodes, steel rusts. His method of removing the headset cups is indeed wildly incorrect, or "sever changes and vigorous" ??? as you put it. But given a modicum of skill or hand eye coordination, there is no reason it should leave the frame "dented and cracked". The M5 tubeset was thin, in places. The headtube was, by necessity, one of the thickest walled tubes on the frame. On a par with the bottom bracket shell at close to 4mm thick. I do not need to accept that 97% of these videos are "cap" (????). Apparently, you know this to be a "fact". Like the old, but very true joke about how, "up to 97% of all statistics are made up on the spot". I am sorry, but you are mostly talking out of your arse about a subject you know little about. "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing"

[@Fugitive_8]

@@theflow5269 oh boy, how fascinating now i will admit i made a bit of mistakes in my reply but im telling you right now that a frame that thin made of steel probably and it wont go away without a dent from the actions showed in the video and how the chain stay and seat stay got higher with the top tube and bottom bracket having a change and yes im not certain with 97% but it is true that most restorations are staged

where did you bought the s-works frame sticker?

I bought it into online shopping sir

[@al-du6lb]

so road bike brakes will work on a 700c wheel even though the bike was originally a 26er? I've been wanting to do an m2 to gravel, but I didn't think the brakes would work!

[@davidtatelo]

Nice, BUT, considering doing something similar i would keep it simpler and les risky (modding the frame is cringe to me). Keep the frame as is, drop in some nice cantilevers (XTR) and skinny 26" tires (maybe custom buil them. Mount old Dura Ace with big gears to compensate for the 26" wheels (second hand old 10sp Dura Ace is cheap). Call it a day.
