The service bill was massive, was it worth it?

Expensive service, yes. But cheaper than a new bike and one less frame in landfill. It'll feel like a new bike when out on it too. I'd say it was the right choice 👍🏼

[@Indira909]

I think that’s a positive bicycle ownership attitude especially in this era where it is easier and probably cheaper to buy things new than to just repair it. Also, it shouldn’t be this expensive if it was regularly serviced.

Really enjoyed this series. A fascinating insight into how real professionals work. I'm not sure I would readily sink £2k into a service, but then again if I get a £10k bike back from it...and there is sentimental value, then perhaps I could see it. Please do more content like this

I was super impressed with your honest and open discussion about this service. The level of knowledge and experience you shared along with attention to detail was excellent. And for me, the editing and video capture was top notch.

[@Mapdec]

Thank you

[@ThunderStruckMTB]

2 small things I really appreciated in this build. 1) The reasonable and correct amount of grease.... so many YT build channels use enough grease on just the rear thru-axle to build the entire bike. 2) Leaving 2mm of steerer tube above the stem body so the stem gets 100% bite onto the tube... just a pet peeve of mine when I see stems that sit 3-4mm above the top of the steerer tube. Well done!!

[@LaurentiusTriarius]

I used to be very bunked on having the steer tube protubering from the top of the stem until I bought a Hope gravity stem and read the installation instructions. Apparently it's accounted for.. 2-3mm 😅

[@andrewcharlesworth2512]

I think geometry of mtbs has probably got close to the optimum now so the full service option now makes more sense if your bike is built since 2021. Really like these videos and sets you apart from the other channels- more please 🙏🏻

[@Atxcmtb]

One thing i’ve found to work in the shop is instead of just replacing worn stem bolts, using TI replacements. We stock Industry Nine and BetterBolts Titanium bolts. whenever i see super corroded stem bolts i always recommend the upgrade. less than $15 and reduces risk of future corrosion.

[@_J.F_]

It is one of those very hard ones to judge because you obviously do not get much new bike in this category for 2 grand but then again, despite all the new parts, this still isn't a new bike either. I think it ends up depending on whether you love your old bike and will be happy to keep loving it for several years going forward, or if you are more interested in having the newest and paying for what the newest tends to costs.

[@joshorr9309]

I have definitely done services like this over the years, especially for adventure racers and endurance mtb racers. There were even a couple where I thought they would have been better off purchasing a whole new bike, but in the end it's up to the customer to justify the service to themselves. At the same time I've talked to the customers about more frequent maintenance and service, and even taking the time to show/teach them how to do the preventative work at home. The complications of old parts, or parts that are no longer serviceable can absolutely become a nightmare, and getting that across to a customer set on using the part they are used to can be a real challenge...rebuilt an old 8 speed Ultegra STI shifter for a really good customer, I was successful and it worked for year afterwards but I've never done it again! Great work brining that bike back to life, I love content like this!

Interesting and very relaxing to watch, customer now has a superb bike as per the Phoenix rising from the ashes! Fully agree about the Lefty fork. In 2003 I purchased a Lefty Cannondale F800; by 2010 despite servicing and care the fork was 'toast' No spares available, so I took the bike away from off road and Mike Burrows (RIP)who I knew and lived nearby made me a one off non telescopic replacement Lefty. I still love the bike, it looks like new (now with 650b Wheels) and use it for cafe and gravel rides.

[@pinkyfull]

I appreciate the openness to let customers "be their own mechanic". There are certainly some bike shops that wouldn't let you put on your own cassette, or would push for buying new pedals from the shop itself.

[@threeohm]

I wouldn't have spent the money on that bike, but whether it was worth it really comes down to how much it will get ridden. If the owner will ride it and love it for many more years it could work out to be a reasonable service bill. Ultimately as a bike shop your job is to provide an estimate and some feedback to the customer. It's their call if paying the money makes sense.

[@mattkavanaugh5623]

I loved this series on the Cannondale rebuild! Great work saving this bike. I have a big soft spot for C-dales (own 4 of them). I was sad to see the Lefty fork being replaced - if it had been my bike I would have tried to save it too.

A great rebuild, probably the most extensive ive seen. Subjective as to whether its worth it. The owner will get a top notch bike back. If anything, inspite of your ability to return the bike in probably better than new condition it has dissuaded me from buying a full suspension MTB. My Canyon XT equipped hardtail will have to do. For now. Very nice to watch this. Top work !

[@diehardbikes]

I recently bought a 2018 S Works Epic that needed everything. After replacing the headset, BB, pivot bolts, and bearings, and servicing the brain shock, and soon to replace the rear triangle and repaint the front, it will look like a brand new bike. Too bad it's a 2018 or I could get a ton of money out of it!

[@hindesite]

I'm feeling this video, I picked up a derelict 2014 Stumpjumper EVO Expert for $150 recently. Getting a competent service would have been near impossible or too expensive, so I've had to do all the work myself. It is a lot of messy painstaking fiddly work. Fortunately the rear suspension and shock appear to have been serviced, wheels bearings seem OK and most of the other parts are fairly easy. This bike won't be seeing a lot of mileage so I've made some compromises on price for some parts, and AliExpress has been a big help. Bonus marks for this video and the detail about servicing the rear hub, which is the same or similar on the Stumpy. I was surprised to find the bike had a star ratchet. Not a fan of long cranks so have converted the BB to DUB and 165s. Headset bearing were completely corroded. Brakes and rotors were stuffed, I've fitted budget Onirii 4 piston brakes and new rotors and will be interested to see how they perform and last. I thought the XO1 derailleur was going to be a problem but clutch is Type 2 and from before Shimano's lawsuit so is serviceable, and the clutch needed that. For me, totally worth it. For the previous owner going the commercial route, not so much. And the strange thing is, I have a friend who has the same bike from 2015, and he just paid $1000s for a full rebuild - so he thinks it is worth it (and it probably is). Mind you, he thinks I got the deal of the century and there is some truth to that.

This looks like the heavy version of the lefty Ocho with the alloy steerer, there is also a lightweight carbon version. Besides the hub for a lefty wheel is lighter too.

[@GHinWI]

I was skeptical, but gotta admit it came out badass. If nothing else, to resurrect a unique older bike that they just don’t make anything like anymore. Not everyone is best suited to a slack head angle. I kinda doubt they really charged for all the labor in that 1800 bill tho-worth it if you’re doing yourself, but I bet there’d easily be 500 in labor in reality.

[@Mapdec]

Yeah. It was more like £400. The quick lefty strip was just for the vid. Not billed.

[@feedbackzaloop]

As per weight difference: yes, symmetrical construction adds a lot of strength and rigidity so the weight can be reduced. But in case of Lefty, you have to shave off near hundred grams off the hub.

[@robdogracing]

Love my Scalpel. Thanks for sharing.

[@Jinedan]

Rebuilt wheels and a new hub new fork, all new bearings, brake service and Mapdec attention to detail ... worth it.

[@kevvjj2629]

Definitely worth it in my opinion. As you say, today's equivalent would be much, much more expensive. It would also be heavier and with even more fragile components. It would never handle single track as well as Scalpel because (modern) bikes have gone too far with head angles etc. A modern XC bike is just a trail bike from a short number of years ago. Very few XC bikes on the market today would climb anywhere near as good as that Scalpel (and that is where XC races are won).

[@PhyRexia.]

[@jamesmckenzie3532]

Lots of money on an older bike but it's up to the customer if it's worth it. I had my bike nicked and it cost about USD 2K to fully repair all the damage caused by the thieves. This was during a period when it would be about impossible to replace the bicycle and it was a bicycle specifically built for me. Yes, it was worth it re rebuild the bicycles, but now it's up to us to keep on top of maintenance.

The problem with this bike is the geometry, in 2019 XC bikes were still oldschool, with steep HTA and short reach, which is today gravel bike territory. And this is the one thing that you can't really change. Otherwise really enjoyed these restoration videos!

[@dan44zzt231]

11:05 do you clean out the old grease first? I find servicing bearings harder & longer than simply replacing them. In DT Swiss those are 6902, I get them in box of 10 from NTN in LLU flavor, it's works out about 3 quid each. Not servicing a 50 quid pedal 23:30, but servicing a 3 quid bearing, I find that confusing, I must be missing something. Thanks for the great video.

[@Mapdec]

It’s all about time and potential for damage. Removing a bearing from a freehub and pressing in again vs removing seal, flush with degreaser and reapply grease is fast and low risk. Servicing a pedal is pretty time consuming when the rest of the pedal is already worn.

[@TimR123]

Frankly I'm glad the bike as finished allowed for such an expensive restoration. 2k is an AWEFULL lot of spend on servicing. But as you point out, it's still economically viable given what the owner ended up with in the end. And I hate to see so much bike scrapped. It's just wasteful. The fork decision was cringe for that reason, but sensible in the end. I'm curious how much of the damage could have been mitigated over the years with a different maintenance regime? Or was it simply well used in harsh conditions and things were going to be bad anyway?

[@dan44zzt231]

Less expensive than a new bike by 4k. Also if you have a frame that you like and it fits then it’s worth the investment. The other way to look at it, how much does one spend on little jobs? I service all my bikes (albeit gravel and road - not MTBs that are a deal more complex) and when you add up a couple of years of chains, tires etc etc then the “hidden costs” £10 here £20 there all mounts up. I mean have you been how much fancy bar tape is 😂😂

[@Antoine_Frs]

That's an expensive bill, but : 1) the bike will feel like new for a lot less money than an actual new bike 2) as someone else pointed out, it probably had not been serviced as much as it should have over the past years, so a part of the bill simply covers regular maintenance The fork was a big budget but will be more convenient long term, and can be reused in some years on the next bike

The carbon Lefty would be lighter by a few hundred grams. Additionally, the front hub would be lighter than a conventional one due to the "thru axle" actually being part of the fork instead.

[@Mapdec]

That’s very wishful thinking

@@Mapdec even if it were contrary to what I mentioned, I'd take a Lefty Ocho any day over a standard fork of similar travel range simply for the stiffness and bling factor. Perhaps I'll make an exception for the relatively new Manitou R8, I'm a sucker for Manitou suspension~

In fairness, the bike shows signs of a lot of use and wear, so neglect isn’t the only issue here. The broken pivot link is probably a wear item. But the corrosion is everywhere, I can’t imagine sweat was the only source of salt.

It doesn’t necessarily work like that. It’s about keeping oil in all the right places and dirt out. Sometime inactivity can be as bad as frequent use. If you don’t ride so often put your bike upside down once in a while and let oil drip arround rather than pool up in the bottom.

defiantly expensive yes, but also completely avoidable. It just goes to show how important it is to look after your very expensive bike or these costs mount up to an enormous bill at the end. Even simple thinks like storing it in a dry environment or just dry it properly after a wash can make a huge difference. Maintaining a bike regularly is also expensive but I would much rather have these costs spread out over a longer time span than to pay the whole sum in one huge go. Still if the customer is willing to pay for it, no problem, but I do think this person has a bit more money than sense compared to the average bike enthusiast/home mechanic.

I dont really understand the "bike was £5,500 in 2019. The Equivalent today is nearly £10,000". The equivalent will have wireless and much smoother transmission than those were available in 2019, and pretty much all components will be much better, more precisely made. Even frames would have more features now and maybe sometimes account for some knowledge collected for the last five years of manufacturing issues and user reports. Plus, inflation. But as for old things, time affects much more than inflation. The service is nice. If I had gotten this bike as scrap metal, I wouldn't have been afraid to invest as much in a full rebuild. In other cases, I'd rather find a bike that wasn't neglected and would keep mine nice, clean, and greased. And in real life no one would take a bike for full inspection before rebuilding for cheep.
