  • Oscar's Dog Groomer wanted a mountain bike to use for towing her son. We decided to make it into a flip bike project and barter for grooming services. We take all her needs into account, and try to build the perfect bike for the purpose!

Much better that way.

    Seth, I started watching your channel a little over a year ago. It prompted me to start biking again. I went on marketplace and scoured a 2008 Specialized Hardrock comp in orange, similar to this one. ( I traded my RC car for it. Then shortly after subscribing, you uploaded an RC video. All I could think was " Go figure ". ) I went from 3x to 1x, and rebuilt 2005 Marzocchi DropOff IV forks. ( They go SQUISH SQUISH.) This episode was especially relatable. It's good to know the same Alex rims I have can go tubeless. And that drilled cable routing idea, absolutely genius!!!
    Anyways, I would just like to say, THANK YOU for all the dope content and endless knowledge. I'm always looking forward to the next video.

    3:30 I love the thought and effort behind these, but I really wish you’d put on an n95 mask when you’re painting, most spray paints are terrible for our lungs.

    Seth, I just wanted to thank you for all the great videos and content. I decided months ago to get back into cycling but knew I didn't want to ride on the roads. Your videos really helped educate me and I knew I wanted a hardtail as well but didn't want to break the bank. I bought a 2022 Kona Mahuna which I've really enjoyed. I'm also in NC and look forward to exploring some easy trails here around Raleigh. Thanks again and keep up the good work !

    Hey Seth, I just got a new bike for Christmas and it’s a diamondback release 1. I’ve been looking at a bunch of different brands but ever since I saw your videos I have been looking at diamondback. I absolutely love diamondback now, and they are just my favorite bike brand now. I’m so happy that you introduced me to diamondback.

    I had the same frame, it was a large 29er. Loved it when I got it built and together how I wanted it.. Some hoodlums broke into my garage and stole it. A few weeks later I got it back all messed up spray painted black. I repainted it, fixed everything and put some new disc brakes on it. Got stolen AGAIN! I've had multiple bikes stolen. My specialized, a Kona Coiler, my fit Eddie v2, an Eastern DJ bike and probably forgetting 1 or 2.🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

    Wait, the trees design on the frame is so cooooool. Kinda gives me black metal/dsbm vibes a little bit 😂

    This has got to be my new favorites RUclips series, seriously love it. Could you all do an episode on the tools needed to do these sorts of upgrades to bikes?

  • @mollerthereal
    @mollerthereal 2 года назад

    I have been thinking to do this, maybe not parts upgrades, but just fixing old bikes and giving them away. I had a neighbor give me a bike he no longer used for my daughter but it was too big for her. So instead, I fixed it up, tuned it up, got it functioning properly and planned to donate it to a second hand store.
    While traveling to a store, I happened across a poor couple, the lady with a bike and the man walking along side her, both filling a wagon with cans and bottles to trade at a recycler. I decided to give the bike to the man so they could both cover more ground together and collect the recyclable goods better.
    When I gave them the bike, I immediately got feedback of what a right decision it was. The man began to tear up. He wiped his eyes and shook my hand, telling me how much he appreciated it.
    I didn’t plan this out, but discovered the power of mobility and freedom can really effect someone, not just to do what they were doing better, but just the freedom itself. I really feel lucky that I happened across that couple to give them that bike.

    This bike is sick! This paint and design are amazing! I wish we had bikes like this now but all we get is flat paint with no design at all. Thanks for post it!
