    I still have my Nitro which I bought new in 1995.
    Got fed up with the crappy gears so I stripped them off and had a back wheel built with an SRAM 2 speed automatic hub and put that on it.
    It's a nice comfortable no hassle urban bike now which doesn't need to go at Tour de France speeds.

    I look forward to your videos. I learn a ton, and they are extremely relaxing.

    Got at the end, with the riding/music scene. The passion of bicycle mechanics, 26 inch wheels and real cycling.

    Oh my goodness I forgot how much I love that stop-motion effect that you do! SO good to see a new video pop up.

    Bike looks great. Whole video is very inspiring. I've changed bike for winter few days ago, it's veeeery old ATB Mongoose(now with winter studded tires, quite a change from my commuter fixed semislicks) and I'm so lazy to go into the garage in these freezing temperatures to make this bike a bit more "aggresive" with whole different cockpit and changing of cables... So man, I feel now like I can do this no matter of weather! ;P

    First one of yours I've watched - impressed at the build and customisation - I'm SSing a basic trek 820 and was searching for inspiration - don't have your fab' skills though.
    The end riding cinematic's set is classy and really shows off the end result.
    Subbed. 👍

    You have to hand it to you that build is pretty ballistic, geometry setup it just the usability looks so cool, top it off of the front rack for functionality it's definitely sick

    love seeing these vids, the stop motion interludes really set them apart. one constructive criticism: the sudden drop in audio during the clips is distracting, but i think you could easily have a generic background noise audio loop in your project timeline that you unmute for any stop motion sections, so there’s a little continuity. just had the idea, i hope you don’t feel insulted!

    The chain clip is facing the wrong way round the rounded side should go in the direction of travel so it doesn't get snagged and pop off.

    I feel like the heavier the bike, the more it deserves to lightened up by going SS. 10x more enjoyable now shedding all that weight.

      I use a Sony RX100 III, I need some cheap because it gets covered in paint and dust.

    Does the tube you inserted in the fork acts as a sim?

    Bei den Ausfallenden funktioniert das doch nicht mit schnellspannern. Da verkantet doch das Rad.
