That angled nut you were referring too would be the quill, otherwise I'm happy to stand corrected but that is what I've known them as. Otherwise this is a great build and has given me ideas for my Amplifier build! Also stupid faces and swears are a usual when bike building so don't worry too much about it 🤣🤣
@9LivesRides yes Iam my man! currently have a 1993 Mongoose Amplifier on the way as we speak! Your video plus a few other videos give me more confidence in myself to be able to pull it down. Refresh it and get it back riding!
@@9LivesRides I don't think we ever did in Aus unless they were imported like this one, if you are in the Sydney area once its done you can come have a look at it if you wish! There isnt too much information out there for them really so it'll be touch and go for cerain things. Luckily I found a group of people who are into these types of bike and are wealths of info.
Beautiful bike well done!!!
Cheers mate, really appreciate it!
more like from the mid 80s...the brake calipers are a giveaway ...cheers nice bike !
Appreciate that insight! Found very little out about the bike when I did some googling. Cheers!
Amazing job. Congratulations fro Brazil.
Thanks so much mate, and hello from Australia!
Clean build mate.
Thanks mate, she came up a treat!

Haha thanks mate. So the nut part is what gives a quill stem its name - that makes sense to me! Cheers!
And are you talking about a Mongoose Amplifier?

@@NeatSix I don't think we ever got those in Aus, but I'm jealous - they're an awesome looking bike. Best of luck with the restoration!

is there a specific kind of solution that goes into the ultrasonic cleaner?
I use "Simple Green" degreaser, diluted as per the instructions with water. Works an absolute treat and isn't so strong that it affects the parts.
@@9LivesRides my goodness! the parts looked great!
Nice rebuild more prefer retro to modern
Cheers Doug, even the cheap ones tend to have a charm about them!
@9LivesRides even the retro cheap ones was built better then some bikes now
