That smile at 2:41 hits my heart. That feeling of meeting your bike for the first time is priceless. I really don't think that smile ever really goes away every time you glance at a bike you love so much. It made me look at mine next to me and smile. : )
I'm 29 years old and haven't ridden a bike in several years. I just bought my first fixie and got that little kid smile on my face as I rode it for the first time today. I'm riding it with a free gear for now so I can get comfortable on a bike again.
Notice I didn't write fixie anywhere in my comment. But actually calling a fixed gear a fixie bugs me pretty bad. I consider a cheapo bike with a flip flop hub, a fixie. A fixed gear bike is a bike that only has a fixed gear on the hub. So technically the bike I was referring to when I wrote that would be a fixie. I now also own a pretty nice fixed gear bike.
"i just bough my first fixie...riding it with a free gear for now" Nuff said, but i'll continue anyway a fixie is bike that doesn't coast, flip flop or not. You can weld a freewheel and seize it and it'll still be a fixie. You can ride a flip flop and until you flip the flop its a fixie. Until you flop it back it isn't. Its a description first and formost of its functionality.
*Looked at a lot of options for getting my **Latest.Bike** . Great find in SAVA. Super light, nice components, really good value as it comes with many options only found in much higher priced bikes.*
What a fantastic video and thank you so much for posting it! Wasn't she pleased with all your hard work? A fabulous fixie for a very happy girl...well done!
Ahhh this video brings soo many good memories of riding bikes in the Japanese countryside. I was born, raised, and live in LA but I go to Japan to see my relatives for 2 to 3 weeks every year and I would go again a million more times before going anywhere else. The people are so friendly, the country is beautiful, and my best memories are from my trips to Japan. Can't wait to go next summer!
Riding bicycles saves the world a little at a time!!! I love the bike and the small blue handlebars, nothing wrong with taking pride when building a bike from scratch. Nice!!!!
Awesome video! When I saw their homemade headset press tool made from washers nuts and all thread I laughed. thought I was the only one who did that. $500 for a Park press is ridiculous!
Man im 36 and i still ride my bikes 24-7 "got 4, Skyway TA 1985 bmx, principia rsl road bike 2012, custom old school bmx inspired single speed & specialized hardrock 2011 MTB" Do what you like, whatever put a smile on your face, have fun enjoy life and smile all the way!!! Never give up the things that you like and love!!!
I love this vid, the look on her face is priceless , I miss my fix gear maybe one day I will buy or build another one , nice work on the finish product
how the hell did i get so obsessed about fixed gear ? i saw one today at a shop and it was love at first sight. i been watching videos and websites about them for the last 7 hours! ☺
Can I ask a question? I would buy a fixed bike or single speed, but i don't know what size of bike to take. I'm tall 1.74 cm. Is a bike of 54cm too large?? Sorry for my english. Thanks.
Sorry but I'm a bit confused.Is this bike they're building a fixed gear?Also, what's the difference between a fixie and a single speed?Is it easy to convert a hybrid bike to a fixed gear?I've got a Torker KB2 with 25mm freedom tires and was thinking about it if it's possible.
Riding any bike is my freedom. I started when I was about 4 years old and now I am 60, and the fun has never left.
I just love how much love and passion they put in building this bike

I don't get the gears things can u change gears?
+o k single gear on fixie bikes.
not a fixie then. singlespeed, common mistake (that happens to bug me pretty bad)

But what? oO
If you can't ride fixed. In this case.. it is stupid to ride fixed.
Fixies are fun ,but fun is great...
But is given away to a newbie girl who did not even lift a finger to make it.
@@stevenkimdmd lmao why so mad
@@stevenkimdmd women do live in easy mode huh
This made me smile. I hope they are all still riding together.
this video is so relax..

The smile of that girl when she sees her bike is priceless
What a fantastic video and thank you so much for posting it! Wasn't she pleased with all your hard work? A fabulous fixie for a very happy girl...well done!
I have mostly mountain bikes.. but this is an amazing fixed gear video. Shows how any bike can put a smile on someone's face...
such a sick video. love watching the work that goes into building from the ground up. makes me want to strip mine down again and rebuild just for fun

The song is from the band The DO- Too Insistent
Thank you!

this is the second time I have seen this video.. and it just makes me smile.. great job on the video and vibe it conveys!
I used to watch this all the time. Where have the years gone?
Is Tamiya agood paint for bike frames?
Great video! Congrats on the bike!
Ok so for the color of the frame did he only paint the bottom of the bike with the red paint? or did he use anything else before or after?
Nice! Getting the ladies on bikes one build at a time. I love it!
Awesome short film!
This is by far the most kind comment I have ever read on youtube!
Not only that, but it's also some of the best advise I have heard in a while.
Great video . I love fixed gear bikes so simple and fun
Very inspiring video, I just took a 3:34 trip, a beautiful trip :)
What was the yellow frame at the end of the film?
What do you call the thing you used to take off the paint?
how the hell did i get so obsessed about fixed gear ? i saw one today at a shop and it was love at first sight. i been watching videos and websites about them for the last 7 hours! ☺
fuji feather! ahh my first fixed gear bike! cheap and keirin style!
anyone know what that yellow frame is?
whts the difference between putting front brake and rear brake?
isnt rear braking is lot more safer than front one? just asking for opinions
So the guys built that cool fixie for their lady freind that is so cool.
Good job!!! I like the colors used
does anyone know what frame that is at 3:13 the yellow one?
That was a very cool video!
Best fixed video in asia ! The rest are full of tricks(some)...just go fast and ride the waves!
Mista _Wo thanks!!!
damn, started Cycling in 2018 with my MTB, then 2 months ago I got my Fixed Gear, and I really glad I did it, really love it
Is Tamiya good for bike's paint?
Top stuff..really impressed with the rebuild, building a subrosa fixie myself...ride on ;)
How did he rust the frame? just leave it out to rust or is there an actual process?
One of the best videos on RUclips.
best present ever!!
Can I ask a question? I would buy a fixed bike or single speed, but i don't know what size of bike to take. I'm tall 1.74 cm.
Is a bike of 54cm too large??
Sorry for my english.
Thanks.
I want to ask a question. Did you use the original BB and headset?

Awesome!!
