    Nice re-build....Trek and Specialized MTBs were the best! One tip for removing oxidation from chrome parts....instead of using abrasive materials just spray the part with WD40 and gently rub off the rust and oxidation with crumpled up aluminum foil. It starts a chemical reaction which transfers the unwanted coating to the aluminum without removing the top chrome finish layer. Abrasives remove the finish which guarantees more oxidation, in some cases within hours. Thanks for the zen video!

    I recently acquired a '94 Trek 930 and it has the same components but with a rigid fork. This video will be helpful in my own restoration. Thanks!

    Beautiful. You and your twin brother are doing a splendid job. I just picked up a 1995 Trek 930 Singletrack two days ago from a friend's son, after he bought a new Trek. The 930 is getting overhauled in my LBS and I have gone in to do some of the work (I don't have any workspace to do it myself in my small flat). I hope it looks as good as yours does! Thank you for posting this video, it is very well done. Dr Sudevan Wisconsin

    • @CowboyTomi

    nice work Tomi! It was cool to see the inside of a suspension fork. What is the purple thing inside the fork? What do you use to clean the bike frame? What do you use to clean all the metal components? How do you wash your grease rags? You're the best.

    • @CowboyTomi
      @CowboyTomi  2 года назад

      Thanks!! That purple thing is called an elastomer and that was the thing that actually makes the suspension work! suspension has come a long way from this old fork. Just simple degreaser/alcohol to clean the frame. and white lightning degreaser to clean all the dirty components!

    Really nice work on this bike, mate. I came here driven by the youtube algorithm and enjoyed watching! Only reason this is not in the top 5 of bike-overhauling-videos for me (like RJ the bike guy and Oldshovel) is the bit of rust you left on the crank bolts and the bolt on the stem. Oh, and that brake cable on the front brake is killing me. It physically hurt to watch you leave that thing installed :-) ...but we know how it is sometimes, when working on bikes. Keep up the great work.

    Great job! just saw this and the Hardrock. I have a similar HR in black and yellow gonna built it soon. You and Old Shovel have great vids keep it up. So many great bikes out there. I hit the thrift shops, goodwills and estate sales. They are usually neglected or forgotten about but the parts are almost always good and wheels true because low mileage. Used bikes are a goldmine because so much of our population would rather stare at a smart phone rather than wrench or ride? Blessings on your garage Sir!

    Question. How did you figure out which tools to use to remove the bottom bracket. The attachment to unthread the bottom bracket. The attachment that you used in minute 2:39. It seem like there are different models for each bike. I have a Trek 930 also that I am saving for my neighbor's kid once he grows out of his BMX bike.

    It went together easily in less than an hour. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Make sure the front fork is forward or the pedals will hit the front tire. Tires are both a little soft so it needs air before I ride it. The rear wheel didn't come with a clamp regular bolts hold it on. The front had the clamp. No scratches out of box. Rims are a little off with a slight wobble. They could have spent more time with the spoke tool fixing the run out. So far out of the box I'm happy with it. I did replace the pedals with a nice aftermarket set. After riding it a bit my A$$ is a bit sore so I ordered another seat. Overall I'm nearly 60 and didn't ride a bike in 30 years. I like my new 29" Schwinn. It will be used for casual rides with my friend.
