Paul starting his Breaking Bad era of building..... Everything he makes should be painted blue. LoL Good to see you back in the shop.... Thank you Paul and Mitch, I've been missing these videos. 😁❤️
That last second of the vid, where the torch really lit up reminded me of the old joke, "you know what really burns my ass? ... a flame about this high."
Great to see you again Paul. It only took me 12 days to find the video. Anyone would think I had been busy. 😁 Thanks for the video. As always, love the jigs and tips.
at 3:20 is that actually the Mighty Mitch , or his stunt body double ,,,, what a day , Im going to do the lottery this week as all the stars are in alignment.
Paul, I’ve learned so much from you, thank you so much for sharing your experience and the wonderfully rational and thoughtful approach you bring to fabrication. Wish this had all been available to me when I started fiddling with bikes in 1964… Cheers, Will (in Scotland)
Thanks Will. Yes, the Internet really has changed the world a Lot. Before, it often meant buying books, and I sure do have a good collection of motorcycle books. Scotland... I'm told there is a Brodie Castle in Scotland. Apparently, it has not been kept up and is quite rundown...
Paul, I fell in love with bicycles as a college freshman in 1987, moved to Alaska in 89' and got a job in a shop, we sold Kona bikes. I was totally infatuated with bikes, the shop, and racing, there was little time for anything else. I quickly realized the were way cooler bikes like Ritchey, Bontrager, and of course Brodie! your channel has brought back so many great memories from those days! THANK YOU! I've loved bikes and motorcycles forever, seems like your channel is a "Good Fit" for me. thanx again for all you do, I wish you good health and blessings. -d
Wonderful to see another video Paul. We've never met, but I've been a fan since the 90's & you made my day today as watched this video on my lunch break. Take care of your self. Thanks to Mitch as well, can't forget about you.
Allways nice to see a new Paul and Mitch video. I think everyone here missed you both. It’s awsome to see Paul doing things you like and sharing your knowlage, I admire you!!! My best wishes to a good recovery🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Gerard, from Spain
I remember assembly on a lot of mountain bikes that came with U-Brakes in 1988. I didn't like them but I know they had more stopping power than the Canti's. I'm surprised the owner didn't want Disc Mount's installed. But then again, it's period correct with U-Brakes. Your looking good Paul! I always enjoy watching a Master!
That was not a quick repair. We filmed for 6 hours, and then I did a couple of hours off camera. I had no choice about my "new look". That's what Chemo will do to you.
Great to see you Paul! Mitch you’re usually more of a presence felt and not seen, your mask has slipped! Your new look saves a good 90 seconds in the shower, no hair more face to wash. This is a real treat. Thank you.
Talk about heaven on earth…. Mr Paul and Mr Mitch..you are a dynamic duel that makes everybody in the bicycle community very happy…or a least me ….thank you gentlemen
Wow. And you kept all your jigs. The owner of that 35 year old frame must be very happy that it was refurbed by the one who built it back in 1988. Rarely do you hear anyone doing that. Abother epic video.
Could watch you for hours, Paul. Oh. Wait. I have! (Great to see you back and love thenew look, from another who gave up on hair!) Time to go for a ride. I am not a frame builder but have (re)built two touring bikes from the ground up. Peace!
Thank you Paul and Mitch. It’s always a lovely surprise when one of your videos appears. All the best wishes and positivity for your recovery. Cheers from Australia.
It's great to have you both back on your channel. Paul, you are an inspiration and an icon to the cycling world. Never give up! Continued prayers for healing and recovery 🙏 ❤️
Paul, it's great to see you back today! Coincidentally I am wearing my "milling time " hoodie my son bought me for Christmas so I stood next to the TV and my wife took a photo of both of us to send to him. Keep up the great work Paul - wishing you all the best.
Paul, so GREAT to see you again. The force told me you were back at it yesterday …… suddenly I wondered how you were doing? Thanks for taking us along as you exercise in the shop. And thanks Mitch recording and editing this so we can all be immensely inspired by the master. 👍👍😎👍👍
Paul, glad you’re back in the shop, I’ve missed your videos. You might already know about this but when I’m centring tubes using the DRO I use the 1/2 function - do exactly what you did with the feeler gauges (or edge finder), zeroing on the first side then just press the 1/2 button and it will give you a zero on the centreline, no maths required!
Very good and I am very happy to see the video and to see you Paul! I am working on repurposing old frames that were thrown out as scrap and my goal is to modify the frames from road to gravel with upgraded drop outs, cantilever brakes and I will install a tube chain stay bridge, changing from a flat kickstand mount chain stay bridge. Thanks for sharing your incredible talent and skills ✌😁
@@paulbrodie thanks. Can I ask your advice, if you have time to answer. I mentioned before that I don't have access to good equipment, but if I make the chain stay bridge from old bike tubing, do you think it's ok to miter the bridge using files and elbow grease? Your alignment technique is brilliant and I am sure it works well with the machine mitering, but it might be difficult to achieve good alignment mitering with files. TIA if you can give your opinion, I will likely do a trial and error test on it either way. Two wheels sportive greetings and good wishes to you ✌😁
@@martinslennon Yes, you can make a bridge tube using a hacksaw and a file. Nothing wrong with that. You have to be careful, and it is not easy. Good luck!
Hey Paul, and Mitch, so good to see you two back at it! Nice to actually see Mitch, too! Paul, your new look is really something! Your frame repair brazing project was really impressive - you have NOT lost your magic touch!
Hello Paul and Mitch good to see you back on RUclips. Interesting repair of this frame. I agree that doing what you love is the best medicine. Just don't over do it as you regain your strength. And think of how much you are saving in haircuts!🙂
Great to see you back Paul, you inspired me to take up trials riding. Used to race speedway as a young man, loving my new hobby, not easy but never to old to learn, stay well. Quality work as always
Doing what you love is the best medicine. Nice to see Mitch make an appearance, too! We all appreciate you spending time with us.
Thanks Cliff. It's good to be making videos again...

Thanks very much. Appreciate your comments...
Thank you Paul for showing us another great tool. Please don't overdo the work.
Thanks for watching!
You're completely ruined the paint! 🤣 I'm kidding of course. Thank you for your contribution Paul. Great to see you back in the swing of things.
Not the first time I have ruined paint...
Thanks Paul and Mitch it is great to see you back on your bike so to speak!

Not sure what you mean by a few days late...
Good to see you back again, Michael for England
Thanks Michael. Greetings to England :)
Welcome back Sirs! You look good as a smoothy Paul. And Mitch, handsome as usual.
Thanks Big Bird!
Paul looks like some kind of Bond villain/mad scientist with the shaved head and welding goggles. I like it. : )
Always trying to look cool...
Fantastic to see you both back Paul and Mitch. Keep looking after yourself. And all the best from the UK. ps, we all missed you.
Thanks David :)
Great to see you and Mitch back in the shop.👍
Thank you. Good to be back :).
Love the jigs and fixtures. They are the type of things people will find in the future and think what the f*** was that used for . Great vid.
Thanks. Sometimes I find an old fixture in my shop, and can't remember what it was used for...
Great to see you back in the shop, we’ve missed you
Thanks Peter :)
Thanks Paul, I just finished watching your Romax build videos again
So happy to see you back! Hope you're feeling as badass as you look!
Paul, so happy to see you again! We are all loving it! The sun will come up tomorow!
Thanks JG. My strength is slowly coming back....
Looking good Paul. Glad to see you back in the shop!
Thank you...
Wow Paul, just saw the end. That answers my question and postulancy about the flux bottle. Stay Strong Friend, the new look fits the shop.
Happy your question got answered!
Thank you Tony diresta. Good job.
I saw Mitchs feet (shoes) lol , that little puff of a flame pushes that solder around nicely .
Yes, I can still get it to flow after all these years!
Glad you feel well enough to bring us along for a quick repair. I dig the Mr clean look, you were getting a little shaggy there, lol, thanks again.
That was not a quick repair. We filmed for 6 hours, and then I did a couple of hours off camera. I had no choice about my "new look". That's what Chemo will do to you.
So good to see y’all back in action!!!
Yes, it's good to get another video out!... 😉
Great to see you back in your shop enjoying yourself Paul. Fascinating viewing as usual… you’ve been missed!
Many thanks!
Always a great day when Paul and Mitch pop over with a new video!!! You guys are always most welcome...:-)

Thank you. Yes, I still have jigs!
@@paulbrodie would you be doing a complete paint restoration on that frame after the weld?
@@jlacc1 Someone will be painting the frame.... Not me.
@@paulbrodie good.. cause it not good for your health..
Always a pleasure tuning in to your channel Paul.
I hope you are doing okay.

Could watch you for hours, Paul. Oh. Wait. I have! (Great to see you back and love thenew look, from another who gave up on hair!) Time to go for a ride. I am not a frame builder but have (re)built two touring bikes from the ground up. Peace!
My new look wasn't planned. Chemo will do that, and then it will grow back. I'm waiting!
Great to see you still kicking those curveballs life is sending. Hoping your time in the shop is as enjoyable for you as for us!!
Yes, I get a lot of satisfaction working in my shop....
Good to see you Paul. All the best. Thanks for spending time with us.
