    It's funny to have found your "streetfighter road bike" builds just now. I've just finished a build for myself comprising of old parts and a steel road bike frame. I have always leaned towards putting mtb parts on my road bikes. This one even more so with 1x9 narrow-wide setup and a downhill straight bar with a little rise. Its great to see a kindred spirit out there.... I just love to build up these old frames and making them my own. Mostly I love to ride them hard in the streets. They're lightweight, fast and very maneuverable machines. And I can fix anything on it. I'd hate to buy more new aluminum frames when these old steel beaut's are still around.

    I've come back to watch this 4 or 5 times now. I've become quite addicted to collecting and rebuilding bikes. It all restarted since March 2019.
    This video inspired me to build a street fighter / commuter.
    I found myself an old '88 Schwinn Circuit with the original Sente group, minus the brake levers. I removed most of the group and left the downtube shifters. I spaced and aligned the rear to accommodate a 130 wheel spacing. Tiagra 4700 front and rear derailleurs, friction shift, flat bar. It turned out perfect.

    Officially inspired. I built what I’m calling an “urban mtb” from a 2014 Felt 7sixty frame. Parts bin and ultra budget used parts. Had a lot of fun doing it and learned a lot. Next project I might even be brave enough to paint!

    Awesome build love the mix of components you used. Looks great. Tried bluing a steel bmx frame as a test, didn’t realize how quickly you need to clear coat it, I left it to sit overnight and entire thing rusted up. I had to re-sand and start over, wound up painting it. Will try again on another project, this build is the inspiration! 🙌

    I was so excited to see a Lemond in your last video- Im so pleased to see youve brought a Lemond back into service again, they really are great bikes, probably the best production steel bikes ever made. nowdays to get a similar quality steel frame your option is a custom bike. it looks fantastic, well done!!!

    OMG, goosebumps at everything! I did a light restoration to my dad's old '78 roadbike and now I can't stop riding it everywhere, so lightweight and stylish... I love it. Back to the video, I am kind of purist with these old road bikes, but your work on this one is next level. I LOVE what you did with the frame, and the flat bar is a reality check that now you can be more comfortable than those years...
    Seriously, awesome work!

    Just happened to come across a giant vintage steel "dad bike", originally a trekking bike, but I find it to be a road bike in disguise. Funny enough I decided to go for a road&mtb hybrid build yesterday - now I learned I am building something very similar to this. This video is perfect to get some valuable inspiration!
    Keep up your great work,

    Nice video. I did a bike conceptually similar this year, and I was fun watching your build. I had a '70s vintage Jack Taylor tourer that I never liked the handing of, but liked the general setup of. I transferred most of the parts to a frame of mine (I used to build, also '70s vintage 2x5 gear, 120mm hub). New brakes, new 32mm Gatorskins, and I now have a good handling 'round town flattie.

      I had first tried (in an initial mock up of the bike) some 560 bars but they seemed too narrow, I had these 720 bars that at first I thought would be too big, I wanted something around 660 ish but now hat it’s been built it feels awesome and feels more like my mtb builds.
