- Part 2 of 2 in the Bike Build Series
See Part 1: • Building a Wheel
You've spent countless hours scouring the web, visiting shops, and dreaming about it in your sleep. You finally have all the components for your dream bike, now you have just got to put the pieces together. While it's not rocket science, it takes finesse, skill and practice to do it right. The thrill and excitement of taking that first ride is worth the effort.

Thanks to Josh Gieni & Clément Tremblay for the build, Velo iBike for the late hours and PBR, and Vincent Malo for the camera work while I was enjoying my new ride.

I love the simplicity of this video and how it captures the pride involved in crafting your dream bike. Such a good video!
Bicycles are awesome. Building your own bike so that you are efficiently pedaling along on a truly functional, dialled and unique creation is really satisfying!
I really like how dramatic the editing was, very brilliant, Bravo :) and very sweet build.
Still to this day the cleanest looking bike i have seen!
What a bike absolutely stunning.
I would never go for that color combination, but what you did out there was a wonderful piece of art !
thats a tight looking cycle, super slick frame as well. Real good, boys.
As soon as I heard Explosions in the Sky, I knew this would be a good video.
once i hear explosions, i liked the video. great band and great video.
wow, beautiful bike and great choice in music!
simple yet beautiful
nice editing, awesome bike.
Great build man. Love the handle. Kinda new in this, still need to learn more.
That`s really a beautiful bike...
Sir, you got great taste in music!
checked out your mag. awesome read. cant wait till your site is up fully.
That is one sweet ride !
kill for that frame set
Nice work. bike is fire kid
that frame is sick! is there a link for pictures of this fixie?
love the crank
seat angle and height is fucked up
damn bad ass, but what kind of seat is that i really want one?
Cinelli!
did the frame already come leaning forward or did u do something to the forks to make it lean forward? lovely looking bike!
that's the geometry of the bike... just the way it was designed - VERY aggressive!
What frame is that? It dope ha
A custom made GURU... 1 of 12
Cool!!!! when im older i want to be an engineer
Always wanted to get a fixie ....
dayum son nice ass fixie....wait let me rephrase that!!
DAMN son nice track bike!!
What the name of the type of red u used to paint ur frame?
thats a royal flush crank, correct? those are so gorgeous
yup!
What kind of frame is that ?
0:47 try clamping the fork guide insted of the fork.
What tipe of seat post is that
That would be even more cool if it had a standard freewheel
Fuck freewheel
what wheels are the front ones?
What's this music? Explosions in the sky?
i love that bike/real cool
i agree, that bike looks awesome. must run around $1,500
Nice build but wtf is up with the steerer tube cutting@ 0:45 seconds? The Park Tool cutting guide has a clamp area ment for a vise. This prevents damage to the steerer tube and you won't have to use a rag in the clamp...fyi
Whats better an aerospoke in the front or in the back
well if you're using it for its intended purpose, on the track, it's better in the front with a full disc in the back. Otherwise just skip the aerospoke and get a better wheel set that won't blow up if you hit a hole in the road.
Nice vid, grim bike 😂
what is chain ling`s name?
You should be proud of yourself
whats that song called
why? Paul Components make great cranksets.
what brand of frame is that?
Bobby Peterson It's a custom made Guru
can someone tell me what crankset that is
royal flush.
I want to know the frame information.
Guru, a Montreal based company now defunct.
What kind of cranks r those
Djhero714 royal flush
all i can say is you got money
I wish i have like that too.
If you love this baby outside is gone in 5 minutes. I'll still with my old still frame Schwinn.
Radu Lacatusu: me too
you don't have to oil new chains. they are factory-lubed.
Tiene el sillín alto.
WHAT FRAME?
@Emils Berzins It's a Guru
Is that crankset custom or what??
Hans Olsen It is a Paul components crank, custom painted
It's a custom GURU
what frame is that???
Guru
Scott Meleskie model that frame
It's paint from Guru bikes.
i realy love that frame "red" awesome,. i will made frame like that.. hahhahaaa
musica del min. 2:37 hasta el final
Looks like a carbon frame
first lost me at white wheels and then at everything :D
ahha jmattendai pas a sque ce soit un video quebecois ^^ beau bike !
so cute
I wonder how long he spent color coding his bike. XD
Lower your seat...nice build
haha... ya, was just the build setup.
I guess a repainted Leader..
It's a custom GURU. Not leader!
I was super into this up until I saw it was a fixie lol.
yeah sure, why enjoy the purest cycling experience, eh?
I just think they are less practical.
Jesse Strode true as hell. fixie is dumb
Why do people seem to confuse building a bike with assembling a bike? Two completely different activities.
Solid build, the whole red and white thing looks like garbage in my opinion though, especially the white chain...
that bike hurts my eyes
aerospkoe or as most call them aerojokes because there really heavy not veary aero adn veary flimsy
too high saddle
Nice components but that's one awful looking bike.
No worries!
epic components
but the final look
looks like a 200dollar chinese fixie.
thats an epic fail to acheive.
kudos man ;)
Ew that front it’s not aero it catches air slows yoj down
5mins.
no
shut up and take my money
I see im not the only 1 who greases there pedal shafts
nonsense bike ,no ergonomics
comfy bike > fancy bike
Look at seat to handlebars positions
But maximum aero
The worst crankset I've ever seen
Ewww wtf is that
man that's an ugly bike
It's a custom GURU
