- This one needed enough work that it takes 2 videos to get through it all. Follow along on a deep dive bicycle tuneup journey and learn how to restore bikes for resale yourself! Lubricate, adjust and tune derailleurs, brakes and bearing on almost any bicycle. True wheels! Fix your flat tires!
I believe you did this in total silence. I'd be jamming some Black Sabbath or something right now.
It's planet rock for me
RUclips police crack down on videos with licensed music in them.
Especially during the seatpost removal… 😂
Thanks for saving a bicycle built for a tall person. They are rarer than hens' teeth...I still have a tall Trek 920 Single Track from 1998. I would have rather had a 930 or 950 but I didn't see any other options on the floor. In fact, it's the last time I saw one in a retail shop. Their all-steel frames from that era hold larger people up really nicely. Thanks to this channel, that bike is running as smooth as ever. Since I found your channel it has new handlebars, stem, new brakes, chain and new pedals...I'm taking it out later today for a postal run through rural Nevada. I would love to hear more about tall bikes btw...😎
Holy cow! That little bolt thing you use to clamp the bottom bracket remover using the crank bolt hole! Absolutely genius! So many busted knuckles that would have saved me. I saw that and mentally smacked my forehead.
You can also use the crank bolts + washers to hold the nut in place.
On the non drive side (loose cup) you would also have to loosen the crank bolt after you'd loosen the cup a bit and so on, otherwise the crank bolt can damage the threat of the square taper or the bolt itself get damaged.
Brilliant restore. I loved the front brake surface fix. I even get brand new out the box builds that moan like that. Great video
It is comforting to know that even professionals mess up from time to time and as a up and coming bike mechanic that gives me great solace. Thank you for showing even your mistakes to us. I know you probably wish you could have saved that carbon fiber seat post but at least you got that post out of there and showed us how to remove those stuck posts along the way. Thank you
The anatomy of a bike is so cool to learn about.
Nice Video! Take a look at that Alivio Crankset; if it has the ID "FC-CT90", "FC-M290", or " FC-MC12" stamped on the inside of the RH Crankarm, it was a Crankset that was part of a Global Product Recall by Shimano AND the CPSC way back in 1997, due to crank arm breakage and possible serious injury to the rider. You can return that Crankset along with the Serial #, Brand and Model of the bike to any Trek dealer and they'll give you a comparable Replacement free of charge. 🙂
That Shimano recall is still valid. There may be a complete kit that includes the crank, front der and chain. I called Shimano about 6 months ago to verify availability of replacements for a shop owner I know.
Nice job on that stuck seatpost.
Once again, thanks. Great video ! Ride Safe everybody ...
That bike looks like somebody rode it from one ocean to the other and back again!
Looking forward to part 2. I wouldnt mind some talking as you get into the rebuild.
Part 2 is also no talking. I have a talking video ready for upload. Stay tuned!
Man. It is refreshing to see someone else get bit by the Stuck seat post bug. I am in a wrestling match on one right now stuck inside an old KHS Flite 300. All cut up hut doesn't want to budge still.
You should've dropped a new seat post in dry. 😉 But seriously, if this isn't a PSA for lubing your seat post I don't know what is. Rock on Bike Farmer! 😎🤗😘🤔
Nice thorough work..💯🎯
I started laughing at the adjustable stem situation. It’s one of the simplest and annoying parts of older bikes. Having to fiddle farting around with shaking to loosen it up, after it’s been loosened. Had many good, fun years working in shops.
I love your videos you should really really invest in some DeWalt power tools and sockets and bits that attached to it using hand tools to having to spin your hands around is ridiculous
That rusted i seatpost was quite stubborn.
It was a carbon seatpost.
Carbon can be nasty in combination with steel and aluminum.
@@thorn6809 good to know. I'll not go down that road
You don't need to use bicycle specific hand tools to work on a bicycle 🚳 DeWalt bit drivers are perfect for this application you can control the torque
That was an awful lot of rust on the bb thread.. at least wire brush it all off or better still chase the threads with the correct taps before putting in the new bb. The old bb looked wet so there is water ingress into the frame - the bb will just rust back up and seize.
Thanks for watching in commenting! Point taken!
Counterpoint: a bunch of grease on the threads is good enough for a bike of this value and condition.
Many drill a small hole (5 mm) in the bottom of the bottom bracket for water to drain or moist air to ventilate.
The cable guide can be a bit in the way for that.
Hell if you wanted to be fancy you could buy snap-on or Hilti
bruh at some point you should just break the hose and scrub brush out lol
Is that the tubes playing in the background
not on purpose!
