That's such a cool do It all bike! It looks like it performs good on long all day rides, tours, bikepacking, dirt jumps, pumptracks, bikepark, trails and normal city rides! That's like the best bike, if you can only have one bike. And for that price, if you do anything yourself, its the best.

[@berendossevoort8613]

Never thought of drilling the cable stops to avoid contamination! I'll do that at my next project. And then i have more color popping since i'm a sucker for colored cables 🤩

[@borisov1024]

I had occasional shifting issues. One day I got pissed off and drilled the cable stops. No issues since.

[@dansacco1964]

You can buy adapter clips that mount in the cable stops and hold your full uncut cables next to them. Pretty handy if you dont want to drill.

[@OfficialFedHater]

I'm just running zip ties next to the cable holders holding my cable lol

Those trees on the original paint job are absolutely awesome! Quite an undertaking you did on this one. Been there, done that a couple times over on my dad's first "MTB", an old '92 Giant (now commuter bike). Also, I drilled out my shifter housings like you did years ago on a different bike. Much better that way.

Seth, I started watching your channel a little over a year ago. It prompted me to start biking again. I went on marketplace and scoured a 2008 Specialized Hardrock comp in orange, similar to this one. ( I traded my RC car for it. Then shortly after subscribing, you uploaded an RC video. All I could think was " Go figure ". ) I went from 3x to 1x, and rebuilt 2005 Marzocchi DropOff IV forks. ( They go SQUISH SQUISH.) This episode was especially relatable. It's good to know the same Alex rims I have can go tubeless. And that drilled cable routing idea, absolutely genius!!! Anyways, I would just like to say, THANK YOU for all the dope content and endless knowledge. I'm always looking forward to the next video.
