This is exactly the information I needed. I recently purchased an old rusty lowrider bike. It also was spray painted and I was dreading it. Time consuming but in the end the results are amazing. Thank you for showing us.
Hello, great video's , I'll be attempting to do that same process with my old lowrider rims ,!! Could you please tell me what size nipples I should look for , I want to change mine , one at a time , thanks very much !!
Look brilliant now. Just wondering what camera you use? I want to start recording my restorations but a bit overwhelmed by all the different cameras on the market.
An old iPhone 5 32GB, records in HD and is nice and small. Not ventured in to the world of fancy cameras yet. Good luck with your vids, look forward to viewing
Ahhhhh wicked your from UK, where u based... Ahhhhh are you that guy from Glossop.. yes your are your Mark.. I'm checking right now.. ok now I see your set up.. I've spoke to you on Facebook.. Im going to message you tomorrow about lowrider info.
Although I fully appreciate all the work you put into just the wheel alone,- it still mystifies me why you didn't soak the spokes in paint stripper overnight , then finished with a neutralizer before cleaning them off with water. I could see the spokes were still dirty in places. You put in lots of work not to get a spotless result. But, that's just me. Not trying to mean-mouth you.....
Thanks, I take any constructive advice I can. What neutraliser do you use? Not dealt much with paint stripper. But anything that makes the job easier and the result better - I’m all in 👍
@@TheRestorationShack Use plain distilled white vinegar. Just soak your spokes ( after 24 hours of paint stripper...) Then clean off the stripper, and soak in a vinegar bath.
@@professorfukyu744 With a handle like "Professor Fukyu", I'm truly sorry, but I really can't take you seriously one bit.You ask me a redundant question, when, the answer you seek is in my comment, if you'd care to re-read it. Which, in essence, does make your question moot. As, you are not a bonified professor, and choose to take on a derogatory expletive as a last name, I honestly can't take you seriously, nor am I interested in establishing a dialogue with you at this juncture. I bid you good day sir.....

I changed mine, I just bought regular 14 gauge spoke nipples
Looks like converting it into a multi speed is out of the question
Wow, you. are. good. Where do you find all these Lowrider brand bikes? they are really hard to find.
Thanks, Scour the internet for available in the UK, they are getting harder to find and more expensive though

Don't worry about the camera. Sorry more about audio and record with whatever you got. Jacksepticeye started with an old school webcam.
I'm trying to put some of these wheels on a wheel chair project. Can I use front rims, or does it has to be hollow hub trike wheels only?
Both should work
You can swap out the whole inner hub and install a side mount or leave it and support both sides.
