Oh man is that a Thömus Farmair??? When I was in the US Air Force, we weren’t allowed to drive cars while in training for my job so everyone rode bikes to get around base and when further along in training, to hop on a bus with and head into San Antonio. SS MTB’s or BMX bikes were the norm. In fact I don’t remember seeing a geared bike. Many of them were hand-me-downs or purchased ridiculously inexpensively from trainees in previous classes. This was my exact bike. I know it came back with someone from Germany. I was never quite sure of the year but it was the same red frame with black accents and logos that appear to be on your bike underneath the paint job you sanded off. Mine was also converted to SS prior to my having it. I passed it down to a lower classman when I graduated and I’ve never seen another one since. Great job, thanks for posting!!!
Wow i swear i seen this type of bike rolling around when i was younger good job! bringing any type of cool hard tail back to life is cool the frames are just bomb proof and can shred for generations.
I just got lucky that the chain is perfect length for this bike and it doesn't need tensioner, but this doesn't always happen P.s. check out my other restoration videos 😉
The bikes didn't even have major damages. I love what you did with it but it looks like it'd take an evening to fix (without all the work in paint and body filler you've put into it)
I would say that painjob, cranks and rear wheel were major things.I had to repalce whole rear wheel and build a new one and do same for the cranks because they were destroyed. And i lost a lot of time waiting for parts..
@@Nexmtb Okay then maybe im just swapping to many bike parts around... Since middle of last year i started building new bikes from used bikes and mostly new parts ordered online... It has become somewhat of an addiction and rn im building and keeping about 1 bike / month. I usually only spend about 300 Euros per bike and sell what left... Now I've got a ton of nice bikes and don't know where to put them nor do i want to sell any of them... I usually settle for 26" bikes because they're just cheaper to get and parts are also cheaper. Although 26" is a tiny bit too small for me it normally doesn't bother me all that much. (Im a 1.9m ~6'3 tall guy)
@@holzwurm_hd7029 Oh ok schade! Aber hast du denn trotzdem noch welche, oder sind die schon verkauft? Weil ich will vielleicht anfangen mit dirt jumpen
Awesome work, bike looks new 🙌🏻 What brand and type of orange paint did you use as it’s really nice and I’m looking to spray paint my bike frame and fork?
Nice build and painting! Do you know if the paint that was on the bike when you bought it was the original paint job? Bc i really like it and maybe want to recreate it on my own bike.
hello, I'm restoring a dirt bike and I'm only missing a rear wheel because it's broken and I don't know where to find one for not too expensive(I live in France and finding bicycle parts is complicated)
@@Nexmtb yes I have more chance of finding parts but I am looking for rims in particular and they are very rare, they are the spank spoon or the halo sas
Guy didnt rode it for a while and bike was neglected And on top of that he needed money fast, probably for weed lol So he said $70 and I dropped it to $60
@@rokbuda9391 scratch resistant paint job doesn't exist, but i know what you mean.. this was not a regular diy paint job, i gave it to a professional guy with good compressor and gun to paint it... So it will last long
For bikes like this with vertical dropouts you can use any 26" wheel that has 135x9mm axle. For other dirt bikes that have horizontal dropouts you need 135x10mm hub. Hope that answers your question.
Well.. i had a rear brake for it but it started leaking so i decided to build it without one until i buy a new one. I am happy how it rides without the brake so i might just keep it like this.
@@Nexmtb I rode brakeless bmx, but added one for dirtjumps again. If you ride brakeless i would remove the disk, you dont need. You can save a few grams and have a cleaner look
If you read the service manual it says that it needs only 3ml of 15w oil in air chamber just to keep the air assembly work smoothly. So it should have oil in there and if seals are good it shouldn't leak oil in the negative chamber
Nice! I’m guessing for $15, that was you painting the parts then? Looks clean! Also, how did you end up stripping the paint? Looks like either sanding or media blasting?
I bought bike something like yours, but full suspension specialized,it was completely damaged bike, when I restored it fully, beatiful bike, then selling and police camed to me ... so I dont reccomend to buy this bikes like you, it was painted before you so it could be stealed..

Even for a bike of that condition, 60$ is a steal, especially with no structural damage to the frame. Great build- keep it up! 👍
Thanks man, thats exactly why i bought it.
@@Nexmtb What is the model name of the bike?
@@raviphatphrommin5003 its thomus farmair
Got 60 $ I got a Kona shred frame 💀
Fantastic ! i actually liked the multi colors before the new paint was applied .although the final paint was beautiful as well
Thanks man

It is Thömus farmair.
Thanks for sharing that strory!
This turned out really good! I kinda also wanna do this to my 2006 Marvil Cuba Dirt jumper
Wow i swear i seen this type of bike rolling around when i was younger good job! bringing any type of cool hard tail back to life is cool the frames are just bomb proof and can shred for generations.
I love to salvage neglected bikes. Finishing the job is such a feeling😌
It came out beautiful it gave me a good idea for a paint job as well thank you
wow, thats a good purchase, all it needed is a bit of work and parts
that fork looked so clean inside
Damn u did a great job on the sanding
Thanks, it did took a lot of time and effort..
I have a old 2000s 26” Saracen rufftrax hard tail, after some debating I am inspired to make it into a dirt jumper as is about the right size
EPIC!!!!🤟🤟
Looks like a lot of fun, i would love restoring a bike, but i dont have one to restore, nor do i need another bike
You can buy it for cheap, restore it and sell it..
👍👍👍
60 $ for that! Thats a steal bro
Great work and i actually enjoyed the music rather alot
Thanks 🙏
Nice I’m into the fade looks old skool
Thanks
You know your paint jobs gonna look sweet when it was done in the bathroom from saw by a guy not wearing a respirator 😄 Nah sick job bro looks mint!
nice
Love the colour
How do you straight chain it without a tensioner I can’t seem to figure it out
I just got lucky that the chain is perfect length for this bike and it doesn't need tensioner, but this doesn't always happen

I been into this lately, buying overly cheap marketplace shitters and making them super fresh, desirable bikes.

What brand and type of orange paint did you use as it’s really nice and I’m looking to spray paint my bike frame and fork?
I can't find the code of the color, all i can remember is that its Nissan color.
@@Nexmtb thanks Nex
Good work, what paint were you using?
Thanks. I can't find code of the color, all i know is that this golden paint is from nissan

Thanks bro 🤘

Its not original, it was spray painted by previous owner
saludos bro
what model of bicycle is it
Its thomus farmair dirt jumper
what bike is this bro
its thomus farmair
Cheap for a bike better than Walmart's
Can't even compare this to a Walmart bike
hello, I'm restoring a dirt bike and I'm only missing a rear wheel because it's broken and I don't know where to find one for not too expensive(I live in France and finding bicycle parts is complicated)
To be honest in my country parts are also quite rare. But you can find them. I think in France it shoud be even easier to find parts. Just be patient
@@Nexmtb yes I have more chance of finding parts but I am looking for rims in particular and they are very rare, they are the spank spoon or the halo sas
How the f you bought it for 60$, damn that was a steal lol
Guy didnt rode it for a while and bike was neglected
And on top of that he needed money fast, probably for weed lol
So he said $70 and I dropped it to $60
What brand n model is the frame?
Its thomus farmair
👍🤘
Why do you still have installed the brake disc?
My plan was to put a rear brake that i had laying around but it was leaking oil so i left disc on the bike for when i buy a new brake.
Song names?

Carbon citizens Triton
Ahh thanks man! Nice build btw
More bikes plz
Nice job. Did you use 2K clear coat to finish it off?
I used clear coat for spray gun i dont know which one
@@Nexmtb I was wandering, is it scratch resistant? Usually diy paint jobs come out just fine, but tend to be so delicate to everything...
@@rokbuda9391 scratch resistant paint job doesn't exist, but i know what you mean.. this was not a regular diy paint job, i gave it to a professional guy with good compressor and gun to paint it... So it will last long
how to make mtb wheels for dirt jump wheel?
For bikes like this with vertical dropouts you can use any 26" wheel that has 135x9mm axle. For other dirt bikes that have horizontal dropouts you need 135x10mm hub. Hope that answers your question.
@@Nexmtb tnx
What about a rear brake?
Well.. i had a rear brake for it but it started leaking so i decided to build it without one until i buy a new one. I am happy how it rides without the brake so i might just keep it like this.

Can i ask what is this frame type
Is a triangle frame?
My english is not good so 😬😉
stojan z lidlu, najepsia viac
Just by looking at this frame I think it's GT
Nope, its actually thomus farmair frame
@@Nexmtb great build keep it up
WOW THAT FRAME IS SO SICK.. WHAT IS THE BRAND NAME?
Thomus
what is that fork???
RockshoxRecon sl
0:20 Yoo is that a rockshox tora sl in the background? What happened to it? I mean what is wrong with it
Its recon tk i belive, lower legs snapped
Where's the brakes?
I didnt have a proper brake for the bike so at the time this video was recorded bike was brakeless.
the oil that you added to the air chamber of the fork will drain into the negative chamber and the fork will not work correctly
If you read the service manual it says that it needs only 3ml of 15w oil in air chamber just to keep the air assembly work smoothly. So it should have oil in there and if seals are good it shouldn't leak oil in the negative chamber
@@Nexmtb if 15w then everything will be fine🙂
i hope i can afford that
now consider what he could do with two hands...
what is chain ring and cog number of teeth?
To be honest i forgot
other cranks)
Nice! I’m guessing for $15, that was you painting the parts then? Looks clean!
Also, how did you end up stripping the paint? Looks like either sanding or media blasting?
Thanks.
I spent $15 on paint,sandpaper and filler, and friend of mine did painting itself for free.
I just sanded all the parts by hand with sandpaper
Make it for 125€ and selling it for 300€
And a lot of time and patience

Why did you put on the same grips?
I couldn't find any good grips in stores at the moment so i put old ones on the bike for now
