Paul Brodie is a personal hero. As a mountain biking kid growing up in BC, there aren't many people who stand out more in my mind. I was crushed when I learned that he wasn't going to do frame building 101 anymore. Building a frame with him is one of the top 2-3 things on my bucket list, and I fear I may have lost my chance. But I am, very much enjoying his UA-cam channel these days.
When we were there, sadly only one peacock - Peter. Another one had passed on a few months earlier. Paul mentioned he may be on the lookout for another. Peter is a bit lonely.
I follow his channel. I think Paul is a great person, a fantastic teacher and and artist overall! And you can see how much he loves sharing his knowledge. I really recommend, go and take a look! 😉✌️
I love Paul's channel I've been subbed for a couple years now and every video is YT gold with tons of information, tips & tricks on how to build & restore MTB & Motorcycles. I wish he was still doing the Frame Building 101 bc I'd love to take one of his classes and build my own MTB.
Hope you guys do more of these. This lead me to Paul's YT channel and I've enjoyed watching and learning from him, he has such a great knowledge base and is willing to share it, failures/mistakes included.
i had not seen this before now…very few follow their passions as you have. I am fortunate to claim that i have as a real estate developer and historic home renovator. I am at a new phase of life and have always had a passion for motorcycles and bicycles and i’m an avid rider of both…your videos have inspired me to build a bike from a walmart genesis g7 …just kept the large aluminum frame and added all new upgraded components…i wanted a comfortable road bike that is geared towards long distance cruising, but also can get out and stretch my limits for speed workouts…i had never known of builds like what i had envisioned until recently discovering some touring bikes with bigger wheels and tires…these are great all around bikes, and i have no need for multiple bikes…now I want to build my own frame…i’ve never done fabrication, but want to learn…i truly admire the fine quality of your builds and crave building one that clicks off all of the boxes…my concept bike is by no means traditional, but is very straight forward functionally, and designed for easy maintenance and making on road repairs..perhaps one day I can share with you…hope you stay well and keep the incredible videos coming …
Love the insight, I see some things we have in common, but are otherwise vastly different. I appreciate how you go about what you do - the process is what it's all about and you excel. Thanks for sharing.
Your class seems to have become framed as the favourite favorite of many online friends. Sharing knowledge is the most valuable use of UA-cam. How would Paul brodie build it?
I was told I always would only play with tools and things, so my mom got me a toy work bench, with plastic bolts, plastic saws wrenches, it was for older kids, but I was not interested in anything else, I was only 1.5-2 years old, then by 4 or so I was tearing things apart to see how they work, by about 8-9 I would buy old bikes from other kids and build bicycles from the parts, they would have bad tires, no chain, needing tubes, missing seats or handlebars, things like this, I would fix them or use them for parts, then I got into motorized vehicles, I got a old car when I was 12, driving my dad's tow truck when I was 13, moving cars around the house, and built my first car engine about then, I love making things go fast!
They ask me who the president was, I had no idea, so I just laughed, because, I had no idea, didn't know much else either, I had a temperature of 106.9, that's after I cooked down a bit, and could talk, before bi could not talk, and hallucinating badly, all because I had a bone infection, from a crushed heel, so it had to be atleast 107 before the ride to the hospital cooled me off a bit, maybe even 107.2-107.5°F. I doubt it was as high as 108 , but the only change I notice, is memory I cat recall things when I'm talking, or names, I know what ever. It's just not there when I want to say it , that seems to be the only asking effects, I'm lucky to still be here, crazy how a single event can almost kill you more than once! I really enjoy your stories, I wouldn't mind if you wanted to go into more details, You could probably start a class of your own, get a metal car shed, as a classroom/work area, depending on skill level, you may teach students how to braise , how to weld, how to machine parts, then mild fabrication, I think ebike frames will be the next thing, that ppl could make money on, maybe 3wheel ebikes, something not far from a motorcycle, but teaching about 3-5 ppl, 2 classes a day, 2-3 days a week, could possibly pay for it's self, then some, I don't know what classes like this cost, maybe make it more of a ciminar, where they sit and watch, you build something, have cameras and TV's showing close-ups, then answer questions, so about like UA-cam only LIVE!, I'm hoping to build a shop, where I can weld things for ppl, like lawnmowers tractors, fix trailers, maybe build trailers, but harbor freight, has that market, you can buy a small trailer for about $300, but if I only make $100 a week, it's more than I make now! A part time shop at home, isn't a bad idea!
Well we have something in common. I too fell out with Grayson. Had to ask him to leave my office. Luckily he did. Wonder where he is these days ? Will you make me an exclesior motor bike to use here in Cuba ?
hi Paul i lived at 19th and highbury had the ossa stiletto the white one with the big glass tank and rear fender all most like one peace..... like the thing you made sorry but what else could you call it say hi Fiona for me Steve

You have more than a knack for teaching, you are innately a teacher. Put the technical knowledge and skills aside, teaching is in your soul.
One of the masters. Great you tube channel.
True. And true.
Awesome interview! He lives down the street from my in-laws and he's got these peacocks. Those are the loud little buggers you hear in the video!
When we were there, sadly only one peacock - Peter. Another one had passed on a few months earlier. Paul mentioned he may be on the lookout for another. Peter is a bit lonely.

dont watch his videos.. you'll be addicted to it😄😄😄 believe me cause i am one of those who gets really really excited when a new video comes up👍

You definitely have a gift for teaching, thank you for sharing your talents.
i got a lot of it.
U honorable.
Thanks for sharing
A Great Builder, greatly enjoyed this insight to Paul's early work.
Thanks... I'm one of the people inspired by Paul. I'm rebuilding an old mountain bike right now. :)
Hope you guys do more of these. This lead me to Paul's YT channel and I've enjoyed watching and learning from him, he has such a great knowledge base and is willing to share it, failures/mistakes included.
Yeah he's really genuine, isn't he? I love his channel too.

Great to put a face to the name after all these years. Thanks. More please. Dekerf maybe?
Great suggestion! Chris' name has come up as one to consider for future episodes.
Thank you! I enjoyed the interview!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Paul for the inspiration 👍👍😎👍👍
I still ride one of his 2007 Infinity series road bike and I'm very happy with it .
@18:08 I bet that's Mitch!
Looks like the frame Paul fixed in one of his videos.
Cool. Paul Brodie made me want to replace my beloved Ritchey the first time I saw the sloping top tube back in the 80s
His videos are so watcheable with the best content an unbeatable combination.
Always learn from watching other....... P.B. is one to watch!
Love the insight, I see some things we have in common, but are otherwise vastly different. I appreciate how you go about what you do - the process is what it's all about and you excel. Thanks for sharing.
This mam is a national treasure.
Mam??
Lol 😂😆
I enjoy your videos Paul,please keep them coming.
Didn't realise where his shop was, I used to work for a print technology company Creo Products in Vancouver, a nice part of the world.
Your class seems to have become framed as the favourite favorite of many online friends. Sharing knowledge is the most valuable use of UA-cam.
How would Paul brodie build it?
I hear he’s got a pretty stellar UA-cam channel 😏
I heard that too....the guy behind the camera is pretty cool too I hear ;)
Thanks in large part to your work, Mitch. We'll add a link to the channel in the notes.
@@NSMB 🤙
@@mitchellnurseproductions is this a clue that Mitch is not in fact a robot constructed from red sharpies?
Mitch? is that you?!
Serious Question have you ever misplaced some thing in the Shop and Blamed Mitch for moving or taking it some where else ?
Hi there yes find your program very interesting do motorcycles myself earlier the better keep going and do you like it Michael in England
how could you not like Paul Brodie
I was told I always would only play with tools and things, so my mom got me a toy work bench, with plastic bolts, plastic saws wrenches, it was for older kids, but I was not interested in anything else, I was only 1.5-2 years old, then by 4 or so I was tearing things apart to see how they work, by about 8-9 I would buy old bikes from other kids and build bicycles from the parts, they would have bad tires, no chain, needing tubes, missing seats or handlebars, things like this, I would fix them or use them for parts, then I got into motorized vehicles, I got a old car when I was 12, driving my dad's tow truck when I was 13, moving cars around the house, and built my first car engine about then, I love making things go fast!
great video but the music is quite disturbing
"That's a nice fit!"
Paul’s a badass 😃
My brodie romax has somehow remained as close to perfect as your resignation.
I like the geometry of those center pull brakes. The new V brake design did nothing to get rid of the MAFAC squeal.
They ask me who the president was, I had no idea, so I just laughed, because, I had no idea, didn't know much else either, I had a temperature of 106.9, that's after I cooked down a bit, and could talk, before bi could not talk, and hallucinating badly, all because I had a bone infection, from a crushed heel, so it had to be atleast 107 before the ride to the hospital cooled me off a bit, maybe even 107.2-107.5°F. I doubt it was as high as 108 , but the only change I notice, is memory I cat recall things when I'm talking, or names, I know what ever. It's just not there when I want to say it , that seems to be the only asking effects, I'm lucky to still be here, crazy how a single event can almost kill you more than once!
I really enjoy your stories, I wouldn't mind if you wanted to go into more details,
You could probably start a class of your own, get a metal car shed, as a classroom/work area, depending on skill level, you may teach students how to braise , how to weld, how to machine parts, then mild fabrication, I think ebike frames will be the next thing, that ppl could make money on, maybe 3wheel ebikes, something not far from a motorcycle, but teaching about 3-5 ppl, 2 classes a day, 2-3 days a week, could possibly pay for it's self, then some, I don't know what classes like this cost, maybe make it more of a ciminar, where they sit and watch, you build something, have cameras and TV's showing close-ups, then answer questions, so about like UA-cam only LIVE!,
I'm hoping to build a shop, where I can weld things for ppl, like lawnmowers tractors, fix trailers, maybe build trailers, but harbor freight, has that market, you can buy a small trailer for about $300, but if I only make $100 a week, it's more than I make now! A part time shop at home, isn't a bad idea!
Hi please follow up with fellow B.C . Ed Becker and the 3 bearing Norton twin. Hope he obliges.
Where is Mitch?
Well we have something in common. I too fell out with Grayson. Had to ask him to leave my office. Luckily he did. Wonder where he is these days ? Will you make me an exclesior motor bike to use here in Cuba ?
hi Paul i lived at 19th and highbury had the ossa stiletto the white one with the big glass tank and rear fender all most like one peace..... like the thing you made sorry but what else could you call it say hi Fiona for me Steve
Meccano. I built my fingers raw with that kit.
And I learned to cuss.
2 x 3 speed hubs = 9 speeds.
Gotta make sure you get that Jab at trump in there
Don't like that last one cause it was trump right.. HaHaHa!!😆🤣😉
Well, I was liking the video and Paul until the Trump comment then I realized that he is a liberal... I'm out ;)
