Fantastic video
OLD IS GOLD ❤
This is 90's MTB p o rn. Best ever
😂😂😂
Great job.. took your time and described them… I totally want that C-Dale 4000dh..!! 🔥
Love seeing the blue 94 Tequesta had one just like and a white 98 rebound
Amazing . Best models anda Best conditions. Thanks for video. Grettings from Chile
Man I don"t know which i'd choose but the tomac era giant hardtail with maguras gave me the most goosebumps.
I love that Manitou!! The Pace is amazing as well. I'm a sucker for polished aluminum. My PK Ripper has floval tubing kind of similar to the Pace. Some truly amazing bikes there. An interesting note is that I used to race mountain bikes out in Colorado back in the 1990's. On massive climbs the bars ends worked great. More leverage. Nowadays they have vanished haven't they? Great vid!
Wow I didn’t know this was a thing I have 5-6 retro bikes that I’m restoring I would love to go to the next event
Are you in SA?
No I’m in wa
@@nigehill wa but me and a friend will fly over next year I have probably one of the first giant dual suspension ever made I will send you a photo
@@benharrup5797 there’s a retro page on Facebook called retromtbwa (pre2000) and also the sister page retromtbsa(pre2000) for my state. Check them out and you’ll be in the loop for shows and meet ups and parts
3 bikes in this video I own the same ones and my friend has exactly the same tomac
It would certainly be interesting to see what the rear double fork suspension setup would be like with today's air forks on the back like on the Manni there! I was just watching the DH World Cup '99 came on a new video tonight. With all that racing, it was crazy to see just how different DH is today compared to what people my age and I raced in. We thought that was hard on those old bikes! Let me tell you, the difference on my new MTB long travel is that it is so much easier to descend and much more stable! I still have my old Giant ATX One and Two in the garage! My old pride and joys from my DH locals!
Super cool to see 🤙
I have to pause the video & say a big Thank You!!! for this great video. Definitely brought back lots of great memories of the 90's...those days were the best in Mountain Biking, Aggressive Street Skating, Electronic Dance Music, Fashion, Design...etc. I am currently rebuilding my dream bike: 1995 GT Zasker LE.
Glad you appreciated it. Definitely the best era
I had that Giant trails bike back in my teen days aswell ad the ATX with the Green Michelin tyres my Family worked in the local Michelin factory so got ne tyres for it every 6 month's! So glad Grip shift is a thing of the past now
Thanks Nigel, such a great clip of the day and well done with your bike entries! 👍
Love these classic bike videos 🤙🏼
We definitely had the best time throughout mtb development from the late 80s on born in this gen is just the best
LTS also my baby,,,,my fav bike on earth,,,,great job saving her
Love the old 90's mountain bikes!
N.Z. needs a similar club scene, some gorgeous examples in the collection on the day,, everyone should be proud
Thanks for sharing this Nige.
They are missing a Mountain Cycle San Andreas.
amazing bikes! Still watching.
Much appreciated!
I wish we had these retro meetings in Brisbane!I still have Gary Fisher Hoo Koo E Koo from 2000 that I just recently restored!
I am 51 years old now, and remember vividly all of those bikes, some of them are my dream bikes, even to this day, disappointed I never seen a Proflex 856, I had one of those.
❤just wow ❤😊😮
Lovely. My favourite era is definitely 90/96 before full squish became more popular. Fully rigid being absolutely the quintessential perfect all around bike and make for a great gravel bike.
Thanks mate food for thought ,I reckon it cost close to ten to get it together the forks at the time where 25 27 and recall just over 5 😊
Original hubs where cane creek ,rims wtb and never had the front disc for memory.
Nice one😍
Amazing Retro MTB, thank's God..I got Alpinestars CSR 700
No Konas?!
The Super V would be thetake home for me.......or the Tomac.
GT is beautiful
Hey mate just been watching your show 2023 retro show nice work enjoyed it , I’m pretty sure I built that black DBR V10 the red sdg seat the carbon brake booster red sachs grip shit the troylee sticker and the manitou forks they didn’t come out with those they had the next model down .I worked at Mitcham cycles when it was down stairs at the shopping centre before it Burt down. I only sold it after I had a big crash on my DBR full response at willunga and wrote it off , built that one up and never used it sold it as new pretty much .
Nice mate. My mate Paul owns it, has had it for 20 plus years. Rad to know who built it. He’s actually has it for sale if you ever want to buy it back. Cheers for watching 🤘🏽 the next show and shine will be in March, follow retromtbsa Facebook group for details mate 👍
@@nigehill hi what would something like that.be worth ?
@@christianmayo6819 I think he’s thinking around $1500 or offers, think because it’s so blinged out and has t been ridden in so long would be worth a bit. Best to negotiate if you’re ever keen, he’d be open to offers
@@nigehillPaul would keep it if shown the sentiment it holds . It may have seen changes since he bought it .I have seen one or two similar about 20 years ago . Christian , it may not be the same one as there are similar ones in the eastern states . You don't know it's full history nor would Nigel without exact dates. I followed retro owners in Sydney but have lost contact with many due to lifestyle changes .Nigel must have frequented this event exceot for Covid years . He would have made several acquaintances through it . I show a bicycle once and that is it as we want as much fresh input each year as possible to keep patrons attending . I showed wrestling merchandise at an exhibition in 2017 and it got good interest .
3:32 Man, the width of those tires makes for a gnarly look. I want some like that on my 26er
Tioga Farmer johns! , I loved those back in the day.
I have a new set of them .
This is bike porn for me. My first bike was that Diamondback ( in black tho); my second was the trek y-glide. I wanted the Gary Fisher version but couldn’t afford it. Some seriously slick bikes boys.
Y-bikes (and the similar Schwinn S-10) still look futuristic.
Eu admiro até hoje as bikes vintage
My dad still have a 1993 Marin Bob Cat Trail 3 n he said that I need to revive it since he's too old to ride outdoor (he's 77 now n still cycling on static bike). That bike has introduced me to mountain biking since I was in 7th grade.
Think you owe it to the bike and your dad to restore it 😉
This is awesome. So many good bikes! Thought I might have seen a Klein amongst so many lol
Sadly I do t think anyone has one in SA. They have the best colours
@@nigehill A friend in Elizabeth has one like Gerry Seinfeld's but keeps it as a mancave item .
I recall seeing my first mtb ever...it was 1985,I was 15 yrs old...I and EVERYBODY had bmx bikes ( except older people,they had skinny 10 speeds )... and so my friends and I are hanging out at the park,,,,some guy from school whom I knew of ,but wasnt a friend,just an acquaintance at most,,,rides up in this.....what looks like a bmx FRAME slightly longer,and these gigantic tires!!,,,I didnt give it much thought to ask him about it,,,and when we all rode off ,he was much faster then my friends and I,But he couldnt do tricks,,,I thought he either didnt know how to do bike tricks,,or the bike was to heavy with those big ass tires,,,and so he ended up going his way and my friends and I went another way....that was the first time I saw a mtb........and not untill I turned 22 years old did I get my first mtb,,,,,and that's all I've had since!!!,,,still do,,,,I'm 53 years old now,
Crazy seeing double crown forks on bikes with a 71* head angle!
That was the tech back then
I know someone who owned a 1994 GT STS . After a show like this , it was found to have several scratches . They said , don't take any of your retro MTB'S to exhibitions . This was the time that I refused invites to show and shine in N.S.W. , where I am from .
That’s unfortunate for him.
GT 4 Ever man . Beautiful examples , especially your Avalanche LE and the earlier one at 8:18 . The golden age of Mountain bikes .
GT 4 life 🫶🏻
@@nigehill Got my first GT in '91 and now have 10 of them , from a 91' Karakoram to a 2014 Zaskar plus my signed race top from Hans Rey .I've subscribed to your channel , keep the videos coming .
@@allanbuchan6947 wow. You have the holy grail collection
nice! brings back some memories. Pro Flex?
Cheers. No Proflex this year but there will be next year
A shame these bikes are not for sale! I would purchase at least two of them!
Hey Nigel, there’s a local listing near me for a GT LTS 2000 DH for $275. Looks minty. Still learning about this era, think it’s worth picking up?
If it looks good, definitely. They’re like Bitcoin now. Just check for cracks in the rear triangle.
The Scott Boulder was lovely with some excellent parts on it, I am confused why they would then opt for Deore LX, nothing wrong with it, I have the 1st Deore LX GS on my 92 Retro Bike, but surely you would go for XT/ XTR with a bike of that caliber ? Thanks for the video, I love my Retro MTBs, I have 2 of my own, maintained to a very high standard, The Trek is Early noughties though, "Retro" would be pushing it, but it still has V Brakes (with the holes & cable guides for Disc Brakes) , but with more modern geometry, front suspension etc. The other is completely rigid custom Alu build done for a Bike Shop/ Person (Bill NIckson) cantilevers, Mavic 231's and Maxxis racing Larsen TT's front and rear, and of course Deore thumbshifters
I’m not too sure but then again I do like the fact that it’s not over specced plus the black suits. I think that’s why I liked it so much
or even the more polished Deore DX, I much prefer the chrome look parts
How close to original are your two retro mountain bikes ?
The main frame and wheels are orig, but many other parts are upgrades/ replacements, orig thumbies, Renthal Bars, Rolls saddle and some other bits@@robertmcfadyen9156
which is how I had my bike when I rode in the 90s, it was an ongoing project, always getting upgrades etc, I was never bothered about having everything facrory or matching, so am not now@@robertmcfadyen9156
Would my 2004 Gary Fisher Tassajara be eligible for one of these events ? Also my Giant Yukon from 1994 ?
Anyone know the pedals on that steve peat gt? @3:35
On another note. I’m looking for a intense m1. Does anyone have one?
What no Kleins! 😱
No one local owns one
@@nigehillA friend in Whyalla has a green and blue one but they are "NOT" a member of a club or Facebook group . Just because you don't see a certain make of bicycle at a show or exhibition doesn't necessarily mean that there isn't one or two out there . The owner may wish to keep it in the family . Not everyone that owns a rare mtb wishes to exhibit it .
Wen is the next?
Well this makes me regret selling my proflex
