Bike enjoyer from Sweden
The bike will set you free
Instagram: addvurtbikes
Do you ever feel stuck indoors? You should probably just go out, but sometimes it seems as pointless as doing anything else. Something I've come to realise is that riding bikes for fun is a really good way to turn that frown upside down.
In this video I ride my garbage bike. It's a single speed coaster brake bike that I keep outside of my house at all times. I usually just use it to go to the grocery store or the train station, but lately I have used it more because none of my other bikes are ridable at the moment. I usually ride fixed gear, because I think it's the most fun.
Enjoy the video, fellow therapy ride enjoyers! //Addvurt

Tom Bombadil

Not everything has to make sense, or push the plot. Some things are just beautiful, like the trees in October. I live in a forest full of trees, roads, and houses. Consider this video my equivalent of Tom Bombadil's chapter in LOTR. I need to find the time to repair my fixed gear bikes before the winter crushes all my hopes and dreams of getting stuff done. In this video, I am riding my coaster...
Fine, I'll show the garbage bike some love

Thank you all for the amazing comments on my previous video. I'm truly blown away. Let's talk about some of the most common sentiments and take up on the perhaps best bit of advice: maintaining a decent chain. If nothing else, just for the safety. I also install a clown style honking horn to meet the Swedish law requirements. Insert clown emoji. And yes, I still ride fixie. More fixed gear vide...
Everyone should have a garbage bike

Everyone should have a garbage bike. Or whatever you want to call it. Normally, I ride fixed gear, but my current garbage bike is a coaster brake single speed bike. It's nice. It's got compact drop bars and it makes weird noises. It can bar spin, but I can't. Instagram: addvurtbikes Enjoy the video, fellow garbage bike enjoyers! //Addvurt
Fixed gear chain snapped while riding
Просмотров 1,5 тыс.Месяц назад
Never thought this would happen. The chain broke while I was riding my fixed gear Ribble Urban 725s. I should probably get better at changing chains. Probably once per year. After the winter. This one has been through a lot of weather. I'm just glad I didn't get hurt. Enjoy the video //Addvurt
You only need one gear to be happy
Просмотров 3,5 тыс.Месяц назад
I ride fixed gear, but I also enjoy riding single speed. There is something special about not having multiple gears. One thing that I have learned is that it is not a big sacrifice. On the contrary, I think that having only one gear is a good thing, for multiple reasons. My Instagram: addvurtbikes Enjoy the video! //Addvurt

I cracked my titanium saddle rails
Просмотров 402Месяц назад
So, perhaps my fanciest bike part, the titanium rail tubing on my Selle Italia saddle, suddenly cracked. Both of them, actually. I didn't notice when it happened, and it didn't lead to an accident, but it's kinda wild. I blame myself, of course, because I didn't place it properly. I will replace it with my Brooks Cambium C15 carved. Instagram: addvurtbikes #fixie #fixedgear #cycli...

A big fat anti-climax
Просмотров 3332 месяца назад
This video is a bit of a bummer, but it felt therapeutic to make it, so here it is. No-one got hurt or anything, it was just a big fat anti-climax. Last year, Stefan and I rode this MTB race in the wettest conditions I have ever experienced. This year, we forced our friend Jack to join us, and it was maybe even wetter this time. And if that wasn't icky enough, I got a flat tire. Twice. Yes, I r...

Rafa (KEIRINSTREETS) and his girlfriend Emilia visited Stockholm and we had a really nice day on bikes. I brought three bikes into central Stockholm. I was riding my Skream Anodiz fixed gear, Rafa was riding my Ribble Urban tracklocross, and Emilia was riding my wife's mtb hybrid.

Do you like drawing, bikes, disc golf, moving hay, and fishing in the Swedish countryside? Say no more. This is Jack. Jack has a fixed gear bike, but it's in singlespeed mode. That's okay. I'll force him to go fixie next summer. Enjoy! //Addvurt
Storing bikes in my shed + fixie rant

I finally took the time to re-arrange my shed, where I store my bikes. It has made my bike life quite a lot more convenient! In this video I talk about multiple things, including: Bike shed, chain line, bottom bracket, fixed gear, aluminium frame, skinny tires, latex tubes, the love of riding bikes, Skream Anodiz, Continental GP 5000.

Great advice 👍
That garbage bike rocks!
I really enjoy your videos and the way you speak and get your message across, it’s quite humorous too! The weather looks similar the autumn we are having in England at the moment so you are inspiring me to ride, I just wondered what style trousers you are wearing because I always ruin my trousers with grease and I always have to change for my bike ride which can be an annoying barrier from just gettin up and going out for a ride
Thank you very much! Riding in the english countryside is a bit of a dream for me, at least if it’s not raining ;) I actually don’t have a good solution for long casual pants. They always get black markings eventually. These ones just happen to be new. In my previous videos I use my light blue jeans which were in terrible condition. Then I cut them into shorts. But when I ride less casually, I use tight jogging pants or jogging shorts. I never use bibs.
Like @probablyriding puts it: No ride is too short, and if all you do is five minutes, it'll probably be the best five minutes of your day.
Yeah! I like that one!
You need to get a saddle and ride the skream again! I have a pro carbon one u can buy for cheap, reach out and we can meet up!
Haha yeah I do need a saddle. But I’m not prioritising the Skream now, winter is coming :) I’m down for meeting up anyways tho!
I want that feeling soo bad but i cant cause i dont have a bike and even used fixies and singlespeeds are expensive :/
If you want a bike but money is the problem, maybe there is an older relative who would be happy to let you ride their bike. A lot of people have bikes that just stand in a garage.
Where in the world are you, bro?
Sweden. Sorry if this advice was not realistic for you, it’s different everywhere.
@@addvurtbikes Haha! Sorry, I was asking the commenter who doesn't have a bike!
Well-- what can be said but--good ideas. In the doctors office awaiting news of heart study. Better ride today.
I hope everything’s fine! I saw a RUclips thumbnail today about a 90 year old cyclist. Yeah, you should ride today, but hey, maybe you will ride another 13 years or more :)
I worry that your garbage bike boosting your channel might make you fall in love with the garbage bike, putting you into that 3rd group of people who end up loving their garbage bikes.
It’s better to love and lose I guess :) im not going to stop riding it to the store or whatever just because I start liking it. It will just hurt more when something happens to it 😢
i have a dji osmo mobile 2 lol
god darn you dropped this video at the absolute right time, i was sooooo bored even on a computer lol
ngl gaming does suck if it's the only thing you do. Games are more fun after a day at school, a day at work or after a bike ride.
@@jocap3837 just came back from a bike ride, i enjoyed it and now back to computerized boredom
Doom scrolling is probably the most common problem. I just decided to present it in a more traditional way: lying on the floor :)
@@addvurtbikes i love that presentation xd
Hey dol! merry dol! ring a dong dillo! Ring a dong! hop along! fal lal the willow! Tom Bom, jolly Tom, Tom Bombadillo!
Maybe I missed an opportunity by not writing this entire video in rhymes... Hop along!
Great advice!
Thanks! I hope it reaches someone who needs it!
After not having anything to do for the entire afternoon, now I have. Thank you very much, I‘ll go ride now :)
That’s awesome! Enjoy the ride!
I have a commuter bike. I fixed some abandoned bike and now I can leave it outside when shopping etc. My recent discovery here in London is that you can get a cheap bike in a recycling centre
i recently bought a rusty 10€ bike, the only problem is that i cant adjust the seating position
I love the idea of being able to keep a bike outside for quick journey's as it's such a pain getting out of the flat with by road bike, and I've given up on a 'commuter' because I can only keep one bike here, but any bike kept outside in my area gets stripped, any bike
That’s a situation that requires a special solution. If a garbage bike can’t offer convenience in any way, then maybe something like a kick bike could be easier to get out of the apartment for short trips
@@addvurtbikes Idk, tbh, if I can find something as cheap as yours, I might try just gumming the bolts up and using an extra lock. If it doesn't work, at least I won't have lost much
Damn the squeek on the bike would drive me crazy, grease your pedals!
Around here we call them ghetto bikes. Crazy paradox of value and utility, the ghetto bikes are the least valued yet most utilized.
Yeah, it’s pretty weird!
the reason why all my colleagues ride an MTB to school is just for showing off and crap, they never touched a trail before, which makes owning an mtb useless for their case
Pretty wasteful, yeah. Mountain bikes is the standard bike kids get here in Sweden these days too
@@addvurtbikes damn same here in morocco
thinking of getting one. thanks
Have fun with your fixie if you get one :)
@@addvurtbikes thanks, i am forsure getting one, just not sure which one, might do a build. that seems like the way. been looking at state frames and tsunami
@@TheFloridaBikeVlogger the state 4130 seems like a great choice to me.
I love riding my road bike because of the speed, there is a very stiff competition between me and the school bus.
Sounds like fun!
The rear hub looks like a 3 speed. If you run it without a shifter it might be stuck on 3rd gear.
Could be. Both the rear axle nuts are fully covered tho. I’m not going to find out :)
@@addvurtbikes You could check if there's writing on the hub. I've found without shifter those 3 speed hubs are best on 2nd gear it's much more efficient than 1st or 3rd as it's like a fixed gear.
@@markusseppala6547 yeah, ill have a look. from the outside, the hub shares similarities with my wife's 3 speed hub, so maybe!
i thought about this before but i live in the philippines and the chance of a shit bike getting stolen PER TRIP is like 80-90%
Du bor verkligen i en skog, trots att det finns hus.
Ja :)
"I am tom bombadil on a garbage bike" had me cracking up.
It was my original video title idea, but I decided to shorten it :)
Your other video convinced me to keep my old bike. My wife and I got new ebikes and we were going to sell our garbage bikes (they were cheap when we got them and not good) but your other video convinced us we should just keep them as garbage bikes.
good choice! e-bikes are high in demand and thieves go after them :(
I had one as a kid in the 90's. It was my old bike I had from new, had to have it welded (frame broke from wheelies I guess), repainted by hand and brush (different shade of blue). And was before we had real bike locks common in my country. I never seen one personally then :D You had junk bike or it got stolen, lol.
Sounds like you had a lot of fun with that bike :)
All bikes go to heaven!
Even e-bikes?
in Leipzig, Germany, there's no way you can just leave a bike somewhere without it being taken :D It's our bike theft capital
addvurt may have forgotten what a kilometer is 🔥🔥🔥 i love this april fools vid
This is a goated comment! Wish I could put it into the video :D thank you!
why is this video that much disliked wtf
Is it? How can you even see dislikes? Or is this just how the cool kids say that they like a video these days?
Totally agree. So nice going to the shops and zooming past everyone stuck in the traffic jam in the car park.
No one has ever before fitted a horn to their bike and then checked to make sure it can still do bar spins. I recently swapped my fixed gear garbage bike for a slightly better but still cheap singlespeed mountain bike so that I can ride through woods and down stairs on my way to the station/shop/pub.
You're right! I'm cutting edge here! SS MTB garbage bike sounds pretty good! I value freewheeling in a garbage bike too, and the purpose is to make your garbage bike as convenient as possible for YOUR specific situation.
Now all you have to do is add beer holders (you can coffee cup holders if you like) re-grease the hubs, get out the spoke key and true up your wheels, replace the tyres, add mud guards and presto! You have a project bike that you'll cry over when some low life steals it! Care and attention and love. Just add grease.
the cup holder is actually very good idea! except to see it in a future video!
@@addvurtbikes Just don't over-spend on it! It'd be terrible if it became a project bike.
I already have a thing in my shed :) my wife bought it years ago to put on a baby stroller, but the kids have outgrown the baby stroller now :)
I would never trust that lock in the US the amount of stolen bikes is insane. I would use a cablelock at least and a cheap U lock.
peak underconsumption core
Yes! I'm finally reaching the gen z audience!
The equivalent of a beater car that's immune to shopping carts
Yeah! Pretty much :)
2:34 try spray wd-40 on it, it fixes my bike(not permanently) squeaking noise when i pedal it
Dont use WD-40. It's not a lubricant.
I would still steal the bike just for the handlebar loll
I’m calling the police right now!
why are there so many dislikes on the video?
i have bike from my grandad, its old hungarian CAMPER, small bike, it has shape of old folding bikes but withouth the folding. i call it the Villiage bike, because i use mostly just in and arounnd the viliage, but sometimes i use it as moutain bike because why not
That bell ended me 😂😂😂
It's pretty nice, eh? :D
I discovered your channel through the garbage bike video! Really loving these videos and just subscribed!
Thank you very much my friend!
Trees are just big pieces of broccoli 🙂
Equally crunchy and nutritious too!
No yellow hat?
I don't think I have one. The yellow leaves represent the hat instead :)
@@addvurtbikes well you do seem like a marry fellow
you can't really break the speed records on the garbage bike--but you can learn to appreciate your local trees.
it's pretty nice, isn't it?
You CAN break your records on the garbage bike.
How wide is your handlebar?
This one is 41 cm measured from center to center. It's too narrow for my taste, which is why it's perfect for a garbage bike!
@@addvurtbikes it teaches you to love things outside your comfort box. Doesn't 41 cm means one side is longer by 1cm, 😂
Ingen hjälm - ingen cyckling!
Förlåt!
I really enjoyed the symmetry of your thought about trees being big broccoli, with my mom calling broccoli "little trees" when I was growing up.
That's really nice :) And if you're an insect, a broccoli might be a big tree to you!
@@addvurtbikes Ha! Way to put it in perspective!
🎊
celebrations!
