- The free bike challenge - Final ever episode! The final free bike challenge is here where I upgrade and customise a land rover ladies bike and send it on MTB trails, urban freeride spots and skateparks! But will it last?
The free bike challenge has been the longest series on this channel and has amassed a huge number of views across the 30 previous videos in the series, but I'm finding it very hard to find good free bikes (as you can imagine) so I decided to make this the final ever episode and a new more exciting series will be taking its place as you will learn about in this video. But getting back to this episode I find myself with a ladies land rover bicycle that looked pretty un-usable before I upgrade it to the max with new forks, wheels, cranks, bars and everything but the frame, which has a good bit of character. I love a good bike build so it seemed rather fitting to upgrade this bike and see what it would perform like across various different terrain including dirt jump, MTB trails and urban freeride spots, but will this bike out live the series or will it get destroyed. Cast your votes now!!
I hope you enjoy the video!

pleeeassse, keep this bike running - would absolutely love to seee you riding this beast again!!
YES, this Akasha is a real bad ass beast.
more, more, more,....😎🤟
Yes please I wann See IT too that formula 1 akasha
spend some money on it and make it the first episode of the next series??
Please keep the Sneeze alive.
Compete with it!
LAST EVER?! Too bad! Cheap bike challenge will be just as good, though!
He's about to be inundated with free bikes.
I that big word means like covered in em. Might be using it wrong.
If not better.
You mean, exactly the same. 🤣
You are a charming man, Sam, and your joy is infectious! If only more people would go outside with their bike and play.
My favorite thing about Sam.... There is not a bike on the planet that he can't find something he digs about it. That is a true love of cycling. He is proof it ain't the bike, it's the rider.
Cheap bike challenge sounds like the Bicycle equivalent to Top Gear's Cheap car challenge, I love that!
fUCK tOP gEAR AND cLARKSON!
Can call it 12th gear 😅
And on that bomb shell
Lol🤣🤣
Yeah challenge between them who can get furthest on the cheapest bikes while having a trick checklist on the way.
7:49 Just sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride *BOOM* AAUGH
Funniest part of the whole video
“A few moments later” Sam’s French accent cracked me up 😂😂😂
7:46 "this is dreams, just sit back, relax and enjoy the ride... ugghhhh" hahahhah I love it
I think marzocchi supermonster would fit perfectly on this street beast.
he should get one
To be honest supermonster is my wet dream xD
the head angle would be like 40° hahahhaa
Cheep bike challenge sounds like a fun series aswell! Love the vids as usual, keep it up!
Thanks a lot!! 😁👍
Cheep cheep 🐥😂
@@sjv6598 well shit didn't see that one coming lol
YES! Definitely more of that bike! Would be awesome to see it on some proper trails as well!
Keep the bike going! We haven’t seen you whip it yet 🤣
That single speed hack proper blew my mind. I’m so 11/10 glad I watched this video right now 😍😍
Yo!! Glad you liked it :)
It was inspired.
You inspired me to put drop bars and a rigid fork on my 29"er hardtail. I had so much fun today and set a strava personal record. (It was insane and made my old trail fun again)
Sick!!
Sounds awesome. I do stuff like that alot. Keep it weird bro
Please do this more often, its amazing, specially with massive forks on it!!
That was extremely entertaining. Only you Sam could compare the lines of the Akasha to a Formula One car. This has to be the one video where you hurt yourself more getting the bike ready to ride than actually on the ride. The abrupt stop at the skate park made me feel greatful that it's a step through bike. I for one definitely want to see you bring it back out because the bike is never truly destroyed until you truly destroy it. Glad to see the traditional Sam Pilgrim sander was once again deployed.
"Luckily theres a sander right here"... Love the creativity of everything as always Sam! lol
ALSO...RIP to your finger dude, thoughts are with you at this difficult time.
Imagine if Sam was an engineer: "Boeings new plane designed by Sam Pilgrim, the plane crashed 5 times while driving out of the hangar, Sam says one wing is sooo goood, it's the dream" :P
😂🤣👍
No stairs of doom though 🤣
Those would be the stairs used for boarding...
Love to see more of this Sam! Keep up the great work 👊
Hi Sam, Keep the free bike rocking, Cant wait to see some more with the UPGRADES!!
We need pt2 for sure!!
11:11 was the funniest thing I’ve seen EVER. From now it is compulsory that ALL jumps on bikes should be accompanied by a cry of the bike name.
It was like a samurai cry )))
Hi Sam & Lui, Free/Cheap bike episodes are by far the BEST, especially the ones where you team up with Lui. Those double seated bikes are just hilarious! keep them coming! How about those big bicycle bar bikes with multiple seats on them with friends. The more peeps the more fun.
Hell yes! Do a tandem bike challenge....................
OMG thank you for not really ending it. Massively entertaining. Best bike channel.
At first I was shocked, but I calmed down when I heard, that the new free bike challange is the cheap bike challange 😁😉
God that title nearly gave me a heart attack! Glad to hear it's kind of staying around!
Yes… more on that bike. I was cracking up out loud! Love these vids.
The humor and editing were prime for this episode. I also want to see much more from this bike!
more of this beast please sam, would love to see it
Another EPIC DAY with the one and only Sam pilgrim!!!! 🔥
Sam should come to Alaska and shred some trails!
AKASHA!!! 🤣Sam, me and my kids have become freebike fundamentalists thanks to your mentorship.
Oh for sure I second the motion to see more akasha shredding. Oh wait…more like 42nd that motion😄. Ps the back rack on it is so👌🏼. Great stuff Sam.
Gonna miss the Free B episodes! Hope you enjoyed the last one!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Love the content as always! Looking forward to part 2 with shorter forks and a brake setup 👌
These videos rule, I hope you do more. Definitely do another vid on this bike. It’s a good laugh!
I'd like to see this bike shredding again. Also, watching you engage in bike mechanics fills me with both joy and fear.
I appreciate you never swear. Hope it did'nt hurt too much. Looking forward to part 2. 😀
Definitely mod it! I kinda love the way the frame looks. Keep ripping!🔥
Keep running the bike! Great work as always. I watch the building the bike segment, I think to myself why cant I find a good mechanic like you around here.
Definitely keep the bike mods videos going... makes for best viewing pleasures 🙏 ☺️
Always so informative watching Sam use his legendary bike maintenance skills!😂
Was kinda cringy how he butchered the fork but thanks god the bike gods took revenge at him @ 4:00 🤣🤣🤣
Love these videos. Making the most of the cheap/free bikes is great. shows that you dont need to spend a fortune to have a good laugh on a bike.
Thank god!! I thought Sam you were not doing this series anymore and its the BEST!! Definitely ride this bike again
Keep it going dude! Basically the same thing I've done to my CARERRA VENGANCE... sooo... cheaper upgrades, but they work and it has the same stance as yours, because it has 29" forks on a 27.5" frame! Madness! 🤟😯🤣
Damn this episode is a killer. hahahaha. I want to see that frame ridden to oblivion to be honest. Hope u bring it back in the future.
Yes, let's keep this bike around Sam!! It's gonna be epic!!
Sam, this whole episode was a Finale! thanks for 15 minutes of absolute joy!
Keep the Freelander going, I wanna see it pimped ridden HARD.
You can see it in hes Face that he loves doing these! Keep it up bro:)
/s
The free bike challenge got me through lockdown and my broken wrist. Sad to see it go, love the vids and I am very excited for cheap bike though, hopefully you put some fox 40’s on those too.
Ride it! It's a lot of fun to watch. The kids love it too! Wee!
i love how the only thing that broke is the high end wheel lmao
the frame is invincible
and yes please keep the bike alive
Technically speaking, the derailleur bent and broke the wheel, but regardless. Yes mod this bike and thrash it til it dies!
Your the man bro. Keep up the dope vids
yes sam, keep the biking running, would love to see it again!!!
Loving the content. So funny and knowledgeable. Get your tools sorted!!!
I would love to see this bike customised, so you can really send it with the bike. I'm pretty curious what this thing can withstand 🤔
always wondered why there wasnt more of the freeb vids, never crossed my mind that it was just harder and harder to find free bikes lol. BRING ON THE CHEEEBS (cheap bike)
Yes, would love to see it again, with original paintjob! :)
That video was awesome. Yes please, make a bonus final episode 🔥💪
Sam is like me repairing my bike when i was 7 years old 😂
Yes definately some mods would be sick. Also looking forward to the cheap bike challenge, hope you upgrade them crazy like on this bike
Bring 'er back for another video- I love it.
Heck yeah, do it mate! 🤘
Yessss!!!!! Amazing vid lover ur stuff to bits Sam. Sounds great. Feel bad for the wheel tho 😭😂
Go for it! Kind of cool bike, keep it running. I would ride it to town and have a beer or two :-)
Yes do another video with it man! Awesome video!
Defo keep the bike n mod it more, always loved the free bike challenges! You’re a top bloke Sam, best MTB vlog by far 💯🔥👊🏻
Love watching your videos never a dull moment 😂
Can’t wait to see the next one with this bike, and glad your still doing it as the cheap bike challenge
Absolutely spectacular! Some of the best entertainment on You Tube! There is no reason to quit the Free Bike Challenge series.........
I have now subbed, and that is reason enough to continue. You could do a budget bike challenge using gravel, commuter, MTB and others.
Way to keep the Sam Pilgrim channel the funnest on You Tube.............To the sky!!!
Such a funny edit modding this beast.
I need more "Akasha" in my life haha.
Yes, let's keep it running! It is an amazingly sturdy bike! I think this format plus some tips on how to improve an inexpensive bike to use on trails would actually be interesting and possibly even helpful to some people who start out on a cheap bike but don't have the funds to buy a more dedicated bike.
Today was indeed epic! I think the bike looked really good with mountain bike wheels and suspension forks. I look forward to seeing what you do with it next.
I want to see it again !! I love it.
These videos are the best ever!! So much laughter!!
I can't wait to see the Akasha on some epic trails and freeride lines
I love your crazy ideas and your content. Free bike challenge was really great.
Of course we wanna see that sort of stuff!
Yes, glad series will continue!!!! the content is EPIC!! ahaha
Cheap bike challenge is the best! Do your thing Sam! The world loves it!
Yes please! This bike is sick! I really wanna see a huge tabletop and a fufanu if you get brakes!
👌🏻😄yup keep those wheels turning for sure, the bike totally deserves it and you are revealing yourself as being a great presenter,I'm enjoying this sitcom series to the fullest here😄👌🏻👍🏻🙋🏻♂️.
good fun again. Yes keep the bike running. Possibly until it's trashed.
Holy shit !!! The pipe slicer is absolute genius thanks for the idea, I have like 4 spacers on my bike 🤣🤣👍👍👍
This is the only reason I watch your channel. I love the free bike challenge. There are free bikes on your travels overseas. Always free bikes in Adelaide mate.
Thanks mate. Texting you to acknowledge prize
Would love to see that bike again!
i love watching you mod things, it makes me feel like were very similar engineers. the hammer is a universal- newly named tool everyday
Keep it going cant wait to see it all painted
Noooo! Why the last? This has been such a good series! I hope the cheap bike becomes better!
Part 2 needed to finish this off... but roll on the cheap bike episodes... this land rover bike needs to go "to the skkkyyyy" heaven for all your other free bikes you've filmed 🎥 😀
It would be sick to have a finale with this bike! I would love to see it customized :)
Yep...more of this beauty please!
Yes please....looking forward to this 👌
Broke both my wrists last weekend at the track portreath on the ressy, trying 360s 😂
Do you're keeping me entertained while I'm off work 🤘
Keep doing cheap bike challenges. I'm getting back into Mountain bikes because of you and your brother mate.
Thank you 🙏🏼
I really like watching your videos about free bike challenge, and honestly it's so sick mate. Just keep doing that kind of content and everybody is gonna love it😍
You absolutely KILL me with your humor. HOW MANY TIMES I've jammed my hand up against the chainring while TRYING to remove cranks.
My add on would have to be brakes... But I have common sense. 😉
omg that single speed hack is exactly what i needed. thank you!
Yessss please bring that bike that and glad the series is going on as cheap bike challenge. You inspired me to put bmx bars on my enduro 😂😂😂 I must say it was a fun interesting ride!! Cheers!
Who wouldn't like to see you doing that sort of stuff :D
That bike looks surprisingly cool, no lies. I wanna see it again. If you paint it, you gotta mask off the Akasha - that bit has to survive to version 2.0 ;)
