I've watched a lot of build videos. I've never seen anyone polishing hubs and chainrings 😍

Stunning... both your talent and your build!

Sick, do the Bombora next! 🙂‍↕️

So cool

24/7 live stream of John Tapping poorly prepped for paint threading..... tune in now and every day all day long :P

is it necessary then to take out the bearings to de-anodize the hubs?>

12:44 I was obsessed with that skee mask album for a long time. Also I’m wondering if you have any problems running the hope rotors with the klampers…I’ve ordered parts and am about to start building a wheel set

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Fantastic job and to take the time to video it, thank you. The one thing I am not sure on was after cleaning the chain and it goes into the crockpot and ice bath? Was that a wax and if so what kind?

Gorgeous

Now, this bike is too nice for riding outside.

Somebody has a lot of money and they’ve spent it wisely. That’s a lifetime investment right there. Congratulations on the build. So nice to watch.

I stripped all the Phillips screws besides the ones covered by the crankshaft. Those ones I hammered the bit in and they came out like nothing. The stripped ones I hammered in a torx bit and some unscrewed by hand just the hammer made them lose up. So thanks for that tip.

Yo this is the gayest build I’ve seen in my life.

where did you get the Retroshift shifters?? I can't find them anywhere!

The frame the fork the geometry crankset, !! video speaks for itself, in the added touch at the end, let me just create a custom bag for this build really nice!

Sir..did you remove the distributor socket before crank the engine? And how to torque it back after your job done?

Sweet build man. This is a dream bike for me. Is it standard for braze-ons to come un-tapped like that on a new frame? Never bought a new frame so just curious 😅

BEWARE of ordering anything from Wit's End!! I sent Joey $6000 for a turbo kit 25 months ago. He has refused to communicate with me for 12 months and has kept my money after multiple refund requests. This order was the worst decision of my life. Joey is a dishonest thief as there are at least 15 others in my same situation, waiting with no communication. If you are thinking of ordering from Wit's End, reconsider and drive on. Joey should never be a business man.

clean build, very well done!

Hey John, what is the tool you used for thread chasing?

wow...super nice!

ben, is that a long cage dura ace r/d or did you splice a cage from a different shimano r/d?

Wonderful

I just got the same bike! The color is so amazing in person. Where did you get the bolts to fill all the holes?

Beautiful build--wonderful attention to detail! Any tricks/tips for mounting the light on the front rack?

That is real.👍👍I have those same Gevenalle shifters on my cyclocross bike and love them. They are so fast and work great.

That is a beautiful bike!

Hi, I am fairly new on the whole building bikes world. I was wondering what do you add to the M4 screws at the beginning of the video. Is it grease? Sealing to prevent water from entering in the frame?

that is some build. what price for a bike and build like that. genius at work i love it.

When you busted out the jars and the instant pot I knew this build was going to be perfection!

hold this one close to the vest the longer you have it the more miles you put on it the more valuable it becomes

Love it!

How did you make rear derailleur long cage?

Why the front derailleur shifter on the downtube?

beautiful build!

How are you liking the bike? Still good? Any regrets building wise?

Crust Rivendelleur. Stunning build. 👍

can you upload a pattern for the bag to wetransfer? you could put it in the description. I see a few others have been asking for it too.

Could you share any details on how you routed the dynamo cable? I have a 2022 Romanceur with a dynamo cable port on the fork leg, and can't for the life of me work out how to use it

Wonderful build, I really loved it. One think that keept from being perfenct is the fact that you failed to align the big chain ring wih the crank arm, it hurt my eye. 😀

Amazing Bike! Love the front bag. Can you share the bag template? Thank you.

Lovely build. Personally would have more seatpost exposed. So different frame shape. However I appreciate this is based on a particular style and period in bike design history.

What a bike. It has all the components you can dream off. It must be so nice to ride, beautiful!

Did you strip the paint from the white industries chain rings? How'd you do it?

Impeccable build John. Like others said the attention to detail and professionalism when building this great machine is a joy to watch. I don't know if it's your own bike but if so, enjoy the miles. Cheers from the Netherlands

YOUR ON TO SOMETHING GOOD..................................bravo

Any desire to add mudguards/fenders? Would look smart with some honjos.

Your work is to perfect brother. If I'm the owner of this bike I'm not going to ride it. I will park beside my bed..🤭🤗

These bikes are basically a 1990's trek 700? $100 on craigslist for a complete bike. Maybe another $200 if you want to make the cockpit better.
