Awesome build, looks mean!!! I have a thing for quill stems and higher handlebars but that’s just me. Super cool part selection and silver was a great choice. Subscribed!
Im doing my own conversion. Using 3x8 shifters to keep low gear. And using v-brakes. Cantis look better but are harder to set up and Ive always found v-brakes just perform better. I will get cable pull adaptors if needed.
Great job, hope to build a similar bike me too. I’m a novice to the bike world and i noticed that you use two different grease, could you explain to me why and which types are they? Thanks
Hey, thank you! Sure: One grease is used as an anti-seize, so it basically prevents two metals from rusting onto each other. The other is a lubricant that reduces friction and ensures that bearings run smoothly
What was that spacer you used with that quill stem adapter to fit the stem? I have an old Gary Fisher bike with a wider than usual stem and I’m looking for something like that so I can use a different stem set up. Thanks in advance! 3:49
It's a pretty nifty quil stem adapter that is at its core 1" to 1", but comes with additional shims to fit a 1 1/8" fork or stem. Are you located in the EU? If so, you could purchase it through our shop
favor... where do you source out your vintage parts? i've been looking for a long time "SRAM x-9 (3x FD shifter, 9peed RD and shifters) can you share me a link? please
Petit tips pour le capot de potence qui fait un peu cheap sur un velo aussi bien fini, moi j'ai percé un capot de potence aheadset un peu plus gros et avec une vis plus grande on peut visser l'adaptateur 1" comme un aheadset ;)
beautiful result! it's so cool keeping these old frames on the road
Thank you! 💚
Just found your channel and i love all the old specialized bike video i started getting myself a collection
Thank you! 🙏 Do stick around then, there is a lot more of them coming! 😉

Nice! Sounds like a solid plan! Are you using a road bike derailleur to make the 3x work?
the claris brifters are just so underrated...looks like a 105 too.
Haha, yes, so true!

@@bottoncino_bicycles hmm, this is a good tidbit of information !! I was going to use bearing grease on everything 😂
Beautiful build! What model is that ahead stem adaptor?
Thank you! It is made by PRO. If you are located in the EU, you can order it through us, if you cannot find it elsewhere.
The brace you are using to steady the bars while the bike is in the stand. Who makes that?
It's part of this particular stand. Super useful and I don't understand why not more have it
❤❤❤❤

Georgeous groupset, why have you switched to copper antisieze instead of the regular grease?
Agreed! Been using that for a while actually. Just looked so rusty in that shot that I thought I'd point it out
@@bottoncino_bicycles is there a reason why you prefer copper grease? Lot of rain?
The Copper Compound has a very nice consistency and is easy to apply

If you guys are looking for a used one Salem Oregon seems to have tons of them and I'm taking full advantage.
Nice! Oregon in the US that is? 🤔
Is it work the road bike brifter with mtb rear derailleur? I have a vintage shimano deore xt rd and want to use a dropbar for my mtb
Yes, rear is not a problem, but front derailleur setup is more challenging
@@bottoncino_bicycles Ahh i see, thank you. Nice build anyway!
favor... where do you source out your vintage parts? i've been looking for a long time "SRAM x-9 (3x FD shifter, 9peed RD and shifters) can you share me a link? please
Mostly they come right out of the parts bin, so I don't have any secret source for you, I'm afraid 🙌
@@bottoncino_bicycles thanks for the reply
Great job, however, left side is for rear braking and right for front
That’s what the standard is!!

You are right, a silver top cap would have been even nicer 👍
Reminds me of sem back in the day when he eas naking music w ghost mtn

14:10 I am pretty sure you put the headset bearings in the wrong way. The balls should ride in the cup and the cone rides on the balls past the cage.
Don't worry, they're in the right side up and the headset runs smooth
