- This was a momentous occasion. A chance to say thank you for someone's help in getting me started. This incredible build was imagined by Tom from Big Lick Customs. A local frame painter of exceptional talent. This was a chance to show you how we can now paint frames like the Time ADHX that comes Ready to Paint (RTP) and create unique bicycles.
Use one of these links to get in contact with Tom, or let us take care of your dream build from start to finish.

Amazing project to be part of thanks for the opportunity Paul, and hope you like the finished bike Sally!
Love working on creative projects like this, there’s endless possibilities with custom paint!..
You’re amazing Tom. Thank you 🙏
Paul, I might not always agree with some of your methods and philosophies on bikes but I do agree with your emotion and dedication. If I lived in the UK, I'd probably be one of your customers and not do all my bike work myself. Congratulations and well done!
Absolutely brilliant Tom and Paul, well done 👏👍
Honestly I’m amazed by the price for the custom paint job - £600 seems like a bargain for something with as much work involved as this!
having a raw frame makes all the difference.
I'm glad you think that! There was loads of work involved in this but we think it was worth it!
£600 is an absolute bargain I agree!
What a lovely gesture to someone who will really appriciate it - well done Paul.
Thank you James.
Marvelous! A customer like Sally deserves a mechanic like you. And, Paul, you deserve a customer like Sally. What a monster paint job! Thanks.
Wow, thank you!
We’re glad you like it! 😁
dude I TOTALLY get that emotion coming out. I would have cried also, gifting other people things they adore makes me so happy
Thank you.
Bless you Paul. An act of kindness in a difficult world goes a long way to making the world a better place. Thanks for sharing 👌👍
Thank you.
A simply wonderful video - made my day - it speak volumes about you, your company and so much more. Absolutely fantastic ! Chapeau !
Thank you Steven
Wow!! this brought tears to my eyes, 2 old friends helping each other. Wonderful looking bike and painting. Cheers to you Paul and everyone involved, Sally's reaction was priceless.
Glad you enjoyed it
In a world often full of sad stories, this little one represents so many big things in life that make it an outstanding example of appreciation, loyalty, dedication, going the extra mile in so many ways, and the joy of giving to others. May life continue to reward you in the ways you want.
Thanks for watching Pete. Hope all good with you.
Damn Paul we’re all cutting onions over here. You are an amazing man and a great business owner.
Just reading the comments and peoples reaction reassures me that there are still nice people in the world ( a much needed sentiment). Paul, you have a good community here, massive reflection of you and yours
Thanks David.
What a wonderful thing to do. Another reason why you should use your local bike shop, you get a rapport, good deals as a regular, banter and sometimes even free advice if they are a good one. This was above and beyond though. Nice one mate 👌
Very true! Thank you.
Not only with regard to bikes, this was one of the best videos I’ve ever seen. Way to go!
Wow, thanks!
I’ve come to this vid a little late Paul, but have to say, kudos to you mate!
So cool that you value Sally as your launch customer 10 years on.
I totally understand your emotion. It’s really powerful when someone believes in you - life changing.
It’s evident that you’re always so customer focused, and I’m sure that you have a terrific business as a result. Good on you for paying it forward by promoting Tom’s talents - he’s a wiz with a spray gun.
Being on the other side of the world, I can’t be a customer unfortunately, but I’ll be a loyal UA-cam subscriber instead.
Thanks Jim
FFS Paul! I'm crying. That's simply wonderful. Thanks.
Sorry
Chapeau! And kudos to Time too (supporting the right person)
Ohh, that is a nice bike. I have been on Time pedals since 1993 and would love a Time frame next. Love seeing stuff like this, hat off!
I had to cry too. You’re great guys. Period.
☺️
Absolutely brilliant mate, what a lovely thing to do Paul. Wish you all the best 😊
Best channel on the web.
Can't believe that paint job was only 600!! Amazing work and what a great video and gift for Sally. Love this channel
Having a raw frame makes a huge difference
This gesture is something special, and one more thing - after collecting my own custom painted steel frame, I know that these bikes are another level of appreciation for owner
That was so cool. Kudos to Tom, the paint work was sick!
❤SUCH LOVELY GESTURE & MOMENT ❤ People who knows how to look back deserves all the good things in front of them. 👍💯
Thank you
Fantastic idea, fantastic paint job and a worthy customer #1
Nice one, she must be thrilled, I knew you would be emotional, I felt it myself.
Dude....this is beautiful. Damn these onions. 🧅🧅🧅
Thank you
Wow, loved this. Amazing bike and story. Well done Paul, Tom, Time & Sally!
🙏
Paul my guy you are one of the most genuine person ive ever seen in the internet. Seeing more people like you more and more gives me hope to humanity.
Thank you.
Gosh! I got emotional too! What a wonderful gesture all round. I think this is the most beautiful paint job I've ever seen.
Thank you.
Thanks for the kind words, glad you like it! 😁
Paul you getting choked up giving the bike away, just amazing.
Tear jerker. Great story.
Oh what a lovely vid to watch first thing in the morning! Got my blubbing a bit I don't mind admitting! What a beautiful thing to do, and what a creation! Chapeau!
Thank you.
Amazing😂 love the ending: “you cheeky little f..riend” 😂
I always say when your on the rise. grab a hand below and pull them up as well. Paul not only have you done this. put to thanking the first customer that started you long journey is an amazing gesture. I hope you can carry n for another 10 years. especially in these tough times.
This is the only true dream build bike that I actually want.
This is pure awesome. Top notch service.
It doesn’t matter whether anybody but Sally loves or hates it. You made a beautiful thing personalized only for your friend.
But it makes me want my own custom painted ADZ. :)
OMG...I am soooo impressed, what a gorgeous bike, and to find someone who cares as much as you do about the process and quality. Way to go Tom.Then you started on the Sally story and I got teary eyed, then you got emotional and I flat out cried as well, though I must admit, I even cry at some commercials on TV. My kids tease me that I still cry at the animated movie "The Croods". Paul, well done...I always say I really don't believe in karma but...🙂
Now I'm convinced I want to order a Time frame through you and have Tom do a custom paint job. Getting it to Oregon will be a bit of a challenge. Some unexpected physical hurdles with knee replacement etc have cropped up so I'm still a few months away.
Paul, thanks for sharing, and for having the original idea, Tom thanks for your skill and passion and Sally thanks for being worthy.
Thank you. You wouldn’t be our most distant customer….
Thanks for the kind words! We really loved being part of this, and are always looking for more great ideas for future projects!
Great gesture, and gift! Lovely people, loving their passion, and loving each other!
very inspiring
Wonderful just wonderful
I think I'd only ride that bike on special occasions! Beautiful work!
I really hope she uses it and it wears the scars of adventure.
much needed act of kindness in this hard times. Kudos to you guys and times and biglickcustoms
Awesome video! I would take it out only on Sundays... on traffic less trails with brand new tarmac. 😊 However, I would go full gas til I puke or cramp... whichever comes first. 😁
Great example for rewarding friendship and loyalty and paying it forward all in one fell swoop!
Thank you.
love your genuine emotions Paul! you made me cry ! you deserve all the support
Thank you.
It is so easy to forget we are PEOPLE nowadays. You simply reminded us again what really important in the life is! Bloody hell - amazing things still happen!
Heroes. Both of you
No one warned me I would cry at the end!!!!!! Amazing!!! Definitely following you - you wonderful man!
Welcome aboard!
Amazing heart - and paint
Well that was the best moment of my weekend. Crying my eyes out. You are very special people
☺️
God bless you Paul, and Sally too. What an effort and it was so moving she stammered 'but it says Time here and I haven't got a Time ' 😂😂. Loved it.
Thank you.
Paul, your reaction shows how much you really appreciate your loyal customers. My dad has always been a person to be loyal to local businesses and eventually in some way, shape or form it ends up with a reward in the long run with discounts or little favours done for free.
Thats really cool. Small Business love their loyal customers, they tend to come to the rescue in hard times and reap the rewards in the good times.
That is the coolest paint job ever!
Thank you! Glad you like it 🙌🏼
Now that's a wholesome video.
Fantastic
A beautiful video about a beautiful bike!
Now that is what you call, a first-class personal and professional customer service. Chapeau to you Paul & Tom. Stunning bike.....WOW!
Thank you kindly
Thank you Graham!
10 years spent, only 90 left to complete the first century. Thanks for your excellent work... Rgr

I don’t often get bike envy, but that sled is a 10/10

I used to come here for quality content, but now I'm just Mapdec fan, hands down 🙌

The bike looks fabulous. But what you did Paul is off-the-scale! Nice reminder that there are good people in this world 😎
Thank you Eddy
Lovely video, I’m one step closer to visiting your place now
Wonderful Nothing like genuine appreciation
So nice of you
Good show Paul? If only I could have one done for this yank😂😂
I think customer number two will be coming in to see you very soon. Love the passion you have for bikes and for your business.
Wonderful! ❤❤❤
Thank you!!
Wonderful🙂
A special moment, and a great video. Not the hero we deserve, but the hero we need.
Thank you. How is your sexy ride doing?
wow! One of the best videos if not the best I have watched on UA-cam. Incredibly genuine. I do not know any of you but I was as happy as you are by the end of the video!
Wow, thank you!
Wonderful video, great build and amazing paint job. I would love to have a bike painted by this gentleman. Unfortunately I’m located in the US.
Looking forward to the next video. Thanks.
We have UPS
One of the best videos I've seen recently. Kudos for your humble and appreciative character. If I lived there, I would definitely be your customer.
Wow, thank you!
I can relate to this but not in that scale. My dog (Nugget) and I was the first customer in our local coffee shop and ever since then my dog always gets a ham when we visit and I get a discount on my coffee. It’s that gesture that I go nearly everyday. God bless you good souls!!
Super, i wish i could paint like that. I'd love to stop by Mapdec next time I'm across in England either on my way to or from the IoM ferry.
Sounds great!
Right in the feels. Well done to you all.
One of the best custom paint jobs I've ever seen. Greate gesture, Paul. Well done.
Thank you.
Thank you! We're glad you like it!
That is beautiful!!
☺️
Glad you like it!
