this fork changed the game for this cheap Specialized Pitch,
Apparently, the link for this fork is gone already,
It was $150 at the time of purchase so I'm not surprised that it's gone all ready

Love your channel, especially the bike upgrade videos! You make it seem like we can all do it, so I decided to try. I have a Pitch as well, and jut did an upgrade to a Judy just like this! I'm now on to upgrading the drive train like your other videos. You should do a video on installing and setting up some budget hydraulic brakes. Thanks!
Agreed.
SAme here! I have the exact bike so I’m upgrading it as well haha
Another Pitch owner as well. Maybe it’s just me, but hard to find info on this bike. Great videos! Thanks!
The internet needs more videos of people like you getting results without the proper tools. Not everyone can afford to purchase specialty tools. Love it!
True story
DIY'ers has joined the group! hurray!!
Sam pilgrim hasnt a lot of good tools
@@blvck______ i love how he install his fork and headset tbh😂😂😂
honestly dude your the first mtb rider whose channel is so humble and like, down on my level. everyones rockin all this fancy shit tryin so hard for clout, and youjust over here screwin two 2x4s to your fence and callin it a day. Shits so cash, keep up the nice work man! I appreciate you, one shed man to another.
Thanks Homie cheers👌
I really like this series, building budget bikes is how a lot of us got started.
I used some Pvc pipe from Home Depot to create a crown race installation tool. Works great. Cost less than $3.
Size 1.5 inches for the pvc to be exact.. for the tapered.. 1.25 inches for non tapered..
@@jeffreymalang9642 class 200, sch40, sch 80? All are different id
Good call paul
Had to buy the whole 10ft pipe tho
@@taterhater2086 you buy it based on ID
Finally ! A REAL dude, doing REAL work with what is available ! Thanks a lot man ;) can't wait to get my new fork on !
I got this fork installed on my budget Trek bike and I can tell a huge difference! Love this fork!
I like how you get so much fun on low budget. That's really great! Without having xx1, gold chains, fox forks and other overpriced stuff. Hope you'll enjoy you riding! Cheers from Russia!
The most realistic bike tech video I have ever seen. Brilliant and the do everything to make it work attitude, firstclass!
I have a 2017 Specialized Pitch, your vídeos helped me a lot on the upgrades to my bike. Thank you!
Thanks for the vid. Good reminder that anything is possible with a bit of patience and some ingenuity!
So glad to see a RUclips channel with a humble person just doing his thing, no frills. Keep it up!
Thank you for a happy family friendly vid. I've had 25 bikes and volunteer bike repair in Rochester, New York. Your doing fine. PVC pipe can set a crown race. Some cartridge bearings don't use them.
Just saw the end, the fork looks really really nice on your bike. Nothing like a new fork to make your ride feel great. Tires and wheels are also a nice upgrade that is easy to do.
Rebuilding a used bike I picked up for my kiddo so we can learn how to build and maintain bikes together.
This video is great!!!!
Great down to earth guy. Accessible vids. Sharing your learning as you go. I'm sure bare man can relate i.e. there's a lot more riders in your position vs sponsored or on high end components etc. Stick with it bro and I reckon your channel will have brand support in no time. For my money your one of the best from the similar channels!
Stay safe! Enjoy practising the jumping on your ramp 😊
Nice job Mark. You didn't forget the star nut, you did it just right. I like your tool, i used a bunch of washers and an old top cap bolt. To put on the crown race people use pvc pipe. I can't remember what i used. Also note, cutting the fork requires the cut to be below the marked line, as the topcap needs to push down directly on the spacers so that the load is on the stem and not on the actual steerer tube (top part of fork). You did it right but didn't mention it so people may have missed that. My install took way longer because i changed the cups and bearings, don't get me started...but i did use a nice home made tool for that. Many file the cut fork, i used steel wool, and a hacksaw using the old stem i replaced to guide the saw lol. I am also paranoid about cutting and filing metal near where i fix my bike because i don't want hidden filings to get into my tires. Putting a fork on and juggling everything is really a pain, which you did easily - I attribute this to your parts tray. I put on a hydraulic brake so I'm glad i didn't have a cable that was inside any fork fittings like you had. I also left the fork a little long so i can juggle the spacers to give me some flexibility on moving the stem/handle bars. I think your fork removal may have been stubborn because the grease was old or there was some rust. My wife's steerer was like that. My silver TK coil fork is cheaper than your nice Judy. It looks great. I went from a fixed fork so any rockshox is a great improvement. And the 2nd fork i had to cut was way more expensive so it was good to cut my teeth on a cheaper fork. Nice job and props for the bike and parts stand! :-)
Nice! I went through this and discovered all the things you’ve covered in this video - I wish I had watched it before I did the job!
I'm getting ready to do the same upgrade. I slipped my fork down and peeked at the parts. Had some questions after looking. Almost identical to you what you have on your bike. Your video is going to save me some time. Thank you!
Thank you so much I’m trying to upgrade my bike and I am more than the cheap side like really cheap so I watch your videos and you helped a lot
My kinda guy! Getting the job done. Great video.
Dude, you got the best bike repair channel on RUclips. Keep 'em coming.
Great vid man......you explained everything very thoroughly, I am sure many Novice DIYers will benefit from this..
Love your videos! Keep up the great work.
The effort has got to be recognized! good work guy.
Nice to see you showed your mistakes and didn't edit them out, and the fact that went ahead without all the proper tools as most of us don't have all the fancy tools.
I know the feeling of excitement!!!! Weeew! Good to see you again!
Nice i like your video because you're showing exactly what you're doing, not just skipping and saying this is how it's done.
Like the video bro! I just upgraded my Marlin 6 with a rockshox recon silver. Awesome upgrade
Thanks for doing this video and documenting your install, and congratulations on success! I believe you mentioned needing a pipe to get that one part(I think the crown) on, and I've seen others use a piece of PVC to get those on. Nevertheless, the screwdriver & hammer got 'er done. Enjoy.
I love the sliders broo, great job on the front suspension 👌 looks sweet!!
I like the improvised bike stand...nice video dude! 😊
Good video, the fitting of the fork was very well explained and easy to follow.
"This is the best bike repair stand...." I loved that! But yeah it works!
just about to comment on that too..simple and good..
You got a new sub, i can relate to you man i don't have the proper tools so i gotta find alternative ways. Loved the video. 👍👍👍👌
Great video. I am riding 2019 Pitch Comp. Been thinking of upgrading my Pitch or get the Mondraker Podium. Now you make me half hearted about getting the Mondraker.
Nice ghetto work stand master Mark... !! GALING 🤙🇨🇦.. awesome review and keep 'em sharing master M. Rockshox is it yeah .. love the brand though ✌❤.
Subscribed to your awesome MCMTB channel.
Love this guy coz u dont find many english speaking filipinos on the internet who bike
Wheelie _ed sabi ko na nga ba eh filipino sya...
Naabutan ko pa na nagtatagalog si lodi 😂
Crap, I thought he was American 😉
Tim Lunsford 😂😂😂
PUTANG INNA MO!!! lol sorry that's the only tagalog my filapino friends ever taught me
Well, that's a pretty honest install done in a real world back yard way. well done
That crown race install hurt me a little inside
I scratched the fork lol, It didn't hurt me that bad
PVC pipe and a rubber mallet will help next time. Or if you must use your screwdriver wrap it in electrical tape or painters tape so it doesn't scratch (as bad).
Also a special tool to remove it is a good investment ;-)
@@sebsoud not a big deal car mechanics do similar backyard stuff, this is just a bike
Just installed my crownrace using a bigger steel pipe over my fork . Hammered it down. Done . Keep up the good work bro! Your vids are awesome…
Love your videos bro keep it up 👍🏽
I just bought a Judy myself because of this video! Salamat! keep up the fire!
Nice filming and narrative. I learned a lot.
Great job im looking to do that on my giant Fathom i will use this video as my guide thank you for posting
You're welcome
Nice bike and keep up the good work MCMTB.
I like that you used a pipe cutter for cutting down the fork. Most guys use a hacksaw but the pipe cutter is a cleaner cut. I'm ordering a Rock Shox recon silver this week to put on my Giant Talon and that's a tip I'm taking from this video.
It's really good, Thanks for the video.
Love from India!!
Had to re watch this as im putting my new rock shox on my hardrock, great vid! Great name btw Haha 😎
I'm glad you found it useful :)
Shout out and goodluck to your new fork
Cool guy. Great vids, keep it up 🇬🇧👍
ayus sa ghetto bike stand brah!😂 nice fork. waiting on my judy, should arrive monday. keep up the awesome vids!🤘😎
You can always make it work with what ya got! Great video, considering this fork for my rockhopper I don’t wanna waste too much upgrading it but it would take forever to justify a full suspension or a nice hardtail.
@MCMTB Thank you for the Good review! Please do some for Bike Bags installation for Camping as well! More Power Sir! Ride Safe..
Awesome video your definitely good at what you do
I used the flat screw driver to install a crown race too. Think I did it more than 10 times, no issue so far.
it makes me cry to see my favorite judy. nice bike
Looks awesome erp!
Thanks bro :)
Pre ang lupet 👌
Good job my friend. It was not easy but I am sure you feel pretty proud now.
Just came across your channel and now I'm hooked watching your content. Just bought a road bike and now I want an mtb. 😂
Great video man! Thanks!
I've never changed a fork, huge thanks for the video!!!!!!!!!
Aweh bro how are you? Thankx you just showed me how to make a stand ... I like your attitude bro some of us can't afford to buy a stand
Love the vids man. Just a small tip, your front qr axle is flipped around and the handle should always be pointing up or towards the rear ( up in your case) parallel to the lowers
Sup bro? I'm watching from the Philippines. I like your vids bro keep it up man!
it is good to be a resourceful..keep rollin bro 🤘
I used an old piece of 32mm waste pipe found on a mate's garage roof to fit the crown race. Works perfectly.
Thanks for this video man, I think Ill buy this fork too on my bike 👍🏽
Dude, great video. U got heart. One suggestion, u need grease in the bottom bearing and top one. Also, didnt see bottom bearing being installed, maybe i just missed it?. A little grease goes a long way.
Good riding.
Nice! Nakikabit na. Ride nalang ang kulang. Sana matapos na ang lockdown.
I like your Bike & the Fork fits perfect. That Black looks Dope ;)
Just bought a 120mm judy for my hardtail can't wait till it comes
I guess, no one would dislike for what you did.
Its absolutely great. And its obviously most of us, riders dont have that specific tool for crown race. Haha 😂
That was awesome! New subscriber here!!
great work. Please do upload more videos like this
My same way of doing things lol! Awesome build and videos
Like your way of working with the tools you have!
Keep up what your doing your great at it
funny but informative stuff...you remind me of me, rarely do I got the proper tool but you gotta do what you gotta do to install it :)
good job, must people don't have all the right tools but you made it entertaining and shown it can be done if you try, without throwing your toys out of the pram,
Salamat pre i almost buying new upgraded bike but this gives me hope to love my specialized pitch even more hahah
No dislike here man thays badass! At least you can accomplish what you want and make it happen. I think i am going to do thos same upgrade to my hardtail.
that frame of yours is truly a piece of beauty
I have a pitch too and i tought that the steerer tube of the suntour fork is tapered so this video was really handy for me
Nakaka inspire ka sir lods! Sana maka ipon ako ngayong quarantine ng pambili sa mga parts na kulang sa mbt frame na binigay lang sakin... Hope I had those too 😍 new fan here from PH
Galing ng bike stand paps! New sub here..More power!
specialized pitch Medium Mens? I have one and am looking to upgrade the fork. Does it work good?
I love the bike stand!!
Nice one Erp!!!! Upgrade agad si Specialize for more fun...!!!!!
I love the way you wheels sound 💙
this is exactly what I experience when I change my fork and of course the crown race too :)
Just do it. You had a star nut tool! Luxury. Nice one.
It looks so awesome and simple.🤘🤘
Next time you install a crown race try heating up your oven stick that town race in their and that shit will slide on the new fork no problem
You Forkin Nailed that!!
bro your so smart with that bike stand thanks for the idea
Parihas man mong bogo
You know, awesome edit man. I was looking for exactly this. I wanted to replace a Suntour with a Judy on my average ordinary base priced bike shop bike, in this case a Felt, wand I wanted to know if anyone else out there was making that basic upgrade and how hard it would be. You delivered perfectly ;-) By the way, if you keep a basic brass drift around the shop, you can smack that with a hammer and whatever you steel bit you are driving will dent the drift instead of destroying itself.
Loved your video, I also have the pitch and I am wanting to upgrade to the Judy or Recon, did you consider going to a 120 mm travel or is there a reason you wanted to stay at 100 mm?
Good job bro very nice stalling fork love it
You did pretty good nice job👍
