This Dirt Jumper Build Took a Year to Finish | Octane One Void Dirt Jumper Build | MTB

It took this Dirt Jumper Build a year to complete. Shortages of mountain bike parts made this dirt jumper build a challenge. Through careful shopping and some creativilty, I got this one done at a fairly reasonable cost.

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

What should I name this bike?

[@zapiroparen7778]

Junatan

[@natandirt]

bob

[@NAMEDTODIE]

Man this came out so nice!

[@sandy_knight]

3rd way to install a star-nut: Use a phillips 1 screwdriver and a hammer. It must fit through the nut obvs and it must have a narrow handle so it doesn't push on the wings of the nut. It's much easier to keep it straight than just hammering on a short bolt and it doesn't load up the threads either. Edit: You'll need two hands to do it this way so I rest the bottom of the fork on a piece of wood (or something forgiving/non-marring), supporting the level part of the fork casting, not the rebound adjuster.

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

Never thought of that. I might try that in a future build video. Thanks for the tip!

[@TheMediocreMountainBiker]

Stolen crank and sprocket?! The police have been called!! 😂

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

I love that brand. It's so fun to say I have Stolen parts. 😁

[@snailze6761]

Just ordered my Void!

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

Awesome! It's a beautiful frame. Enjoy!

[@mickdalglish6241]

Aeolian thats my name that sprang to mind , the sound of the wind anyway theres nothing wrong with taking a year on a bike at least you got it finished ive got lots of half built bikes that will never get finished , even the one I ride isnt finished yet , cool video cheers

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

That's a cool name. Thanks! I got a few unfinished projects myself. Older stuff. Hope to get those done early next year. I love working on bikes.

[@djwill_681]

SWEET build and beautiful DJ!! Wish we could’ve seen it at griffin.

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

I'm proud of that build. 😁 If I had known that we'd only be riding the jumps, I would've brought it.

[@Jen-cz6yj]

love the look of this dirt jumper soooo much and the name should be the pigeon. (the flying pigeon)

[@michaelevans6205]

yes 100% but when ever uttering this name it should be spoken in a deep raspy batman voice .

[@golden7983]

[@michaelpopp5185]

very nice bike! waiting a year would be torture though!

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

It definitely wasn't fun waiting but getting it right in the end made it all worthwhile.

[@MTBTrailSherpa]

Well done Frank. You know your sh!t

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

🙏🙏 I try. Thank you.

[@robupton267]

Just fyi. Gusset chain tugs work well on these frame…I have built three. They also come with three different length bolts just for shorter dropouts.

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

Thanks. I didn't realize Gusset makes those. I bought a set of Arcane tensioners a while back that cost me an arm and a leg and look almost identical.

[@bmxriderforlife1234]

This looks like it'll be a nice build. Good frame only issue is threaded bbs. Also reminds me of my dj plan. Slightly different, tryna hit like a really high end build that's only what an average higher end build might cost. Not a full pimped out build. Like 23.5 ish pounds or less before any titanium... Reynolds 853 frame. Bomber dj or a pike dj. Little bit of cheap carbon fiber xD loo bmx race pivotal posts ftw. But mostly just smart average parts choice and a few trick bits. Btw mtb gyro info. Short pull brakes for bmx levers. And short pull for gyro anyways. Road mechanical discs work best.

[@bmxriderforlife1234]

Grease yo threads or use lock tite. Anti seize also works. Only required tool for any bb job. Regardless of other tools.

beautiful I am so pumped on that bike what is the gear ratio i know ya got a 28 tooth up front but what is the rear look like ? and how does it feel ?

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

Thanks! It turned out great. The rear cog is 11 tooth. It's firm but feels good to me.

[@chickensendies]

Very nice man! We need to have a DJ session some day HAHAHAHA

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

A DJ session sounds like fun!

[@mannyr6805]

Blue is a good name, I was thinking Rena since rena is in Adrenaline. Sadly I seen this vid today

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

Thanks for watching. It's never too late. I haven't decided on the name yet but I think I will let the viewer make the final decision. Rena sounds pretty cool. 😎

[@ragingeo7298]

Sweet build! The Stolen crankset, was the spindle long enough that the crank arms cleared the frame? Any spacers needed?

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

Thanks. The spindle was plenty long. I used a spacer or two to get the chain line straight.

[@thegrommechanic6265]

Unfortun8 that the fork is a straight steerer. I would put a Pike on this bad boy. But still I can’t believe how it stayed around 1100 £!

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

I would have preferred a tapered fork but they were hard to find. A silver Pike would look amazing in this bike but out of my budget. Lots of careful shopping and some lucky breaks will save some money.

[@sepefication]

very nice and clean Bike. what can You say about durability of Michelin Pilot Pump 26 tires??

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

Thanks. The tires still look new but I don't ride the dirt jumper as often as I'd like.

[@charlescian1220]

Name it blue balls because it took a year in order for you to finally mount it!!!! Lol.

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

😂 Why didn't I think of that!!

[@TOPOPPZAY]

Do you think the rims you used on this bike would fit on the mongoose pt 26 ?

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

The rear wheel will fit. You will need the appropriate wheel for the front wheel depending on the fork. There are different standards out there. Spank is very good with dirt jump products and should be able to set you up with the correct front wheel.

[@eternalartist4411]

I have the Void one Frame too. I have been having a hard time to keep the chain from lossening up. Any suggestions please

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

I pull the wheel tight and straight then tighten the drive side first. Then I tighten the non drive side. That has always worked for me. Another option is to use a half link chain and slam the wheel all the way forward. Some axels just tend to get loose no matter what. Arcane makes a short chain tensioner that might help. I haven't tried it yet but it looks small enough to work with the short Octane on dropouts.

[@travisrebout7462]

but ur dj is fresh

[@dragonflygenetics420]

How did you mount your rear calipers I have no threads in the caliper mount did you use a nut on the back of those boats? Thanks for any info?

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

You need an IS mount adapter. The threads are on the adapter.

[@nategute2377]

Where can I find the non-tapered to tapered crown race?

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

Apparently I forgot to include a few links in the description. Thanks for the heads up. Cane Creek adapter crown race: bit.ly/32bna0y

[@ben156]

Not that one is better is than the other, but what was your reasons for choosing a chromoly frame vs alu? Cheers!

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

There were a few reasons. I like the look and feel of a chromoly frame. I feel less bad about crashing one. I was able to get it for about the price of the Zircus frame. I would've been happy with either cromo or aluminum but this was too good of a deal to pass up.

[@felixklimm7225]

If you're doing street/ park get a steal frame If you're doing dirt jumps/ a bit of park then get an aluminium

[@ragingeo7298]

That crown race adapter that you’re using was the fork pretty solid with that frame even jumping ramps, and getting aggressive on the bike or did you ever have problems with it loosening up? Would that work with a rigid fork and a dirt jumper bike?

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

I didn't have any trouble with it. It never loosened on me. It should work the same on a rigid fork.

[@bryceflanagan7316]

I'm thinking about getting a dirt jumper but I dont know where to start. is there a certain bike brand that specializes in dirt jumpers? or should I just individual parts?

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

Many brands will offer dirt jumpers as part if their larger product line. Some are more focused on them than others like NS Bikes. You can't go wrong with many of them. You can alway build your own but it's usually more expensive to do that. If you are looking to do some serious jumping the higher end the better the components. If you are just looking to roll the pump track and some small jumps you can get away with a cheaper model.

[@bryceflanagan7316]

@@AdrenalineIsLife thank you

[@jaydenbeckley9993]

its strange that your bike wouldn't fit a chain tensioner bc mine does quite comfortably

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

The dropouts were very short. Maybe they changed it. I was able to use an Arcane tensioner, which is very short. Standard chain tensioners were just too long.

[@manuelmarquezmx]

@@AdrenalineIsLife ok thx

[@Frxsty.fn4]

Why do people put their fork backwards or is it Ment to be like that?

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

That's a Manitou fork. That's how they're designed. The reverse arch is supposed to improve rigidity while keeping the weight down.

[@ragingeo7298]

How’s the frame been holding up?

@@AdrenalineIsLife OK IS the frame OK for dirt jumping👍🏽🤷🏽‍♂️ or i ask straight iwant buy me next days a dirtbike would you buy the ns movement 3 for 580 or octane one melt pumpfor 400 and get another fork for dirtjumps IS IT then as good AS the movement 3? And can i do dirtjumps then with the octane one 😅🫣 can't find anything really about this in German KZbin 👋🏽✌🏽

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

@kingog9421 the Melt frame is fine for dirt jumping if you put a dirt jump fork on it. NS and Octane One are the same company. I like the Movement better. It has better cranks and the DJ fork. Otherwise, they are very similar.

[@saiket1735]

I navigate to the website to buy the frame, it does not have any option to send to the United States of America, even though it has one distributing center in the U.S., the website has options to ship to pretty much every other countries including Republic of Congo, but NOT the the U.S.A. What the Fuck???????

[@AdrenalineIsLife]

It's possible that they have some kind of exclusivity agreement with the US distributor. It look like it out of stock everywhere though.
