Fantastic video 😊

Damn! I guess I want worry about the little pea size ding on the top tube of my Yo Eddy

Thanks for sharing your methods of making the fork crown. As you said, you need to think of each step before making them.

Thanks

The paintstripping effect is cool, crafting the new old fork is awesome😎

Amazing! You are a Master!

Instead of the screwdriver spreader, slip a bit of sheet metal into the slot and tighten your allen screw from the other side to push the slot open without risking marking anything

Ha! I didn't realize Ritchey cast a spell on Mr. Brodie too! "After some early days riding mediocre road bikes in the early 80's, something important arrived at the Peddler bicycle shop where he was working in Vancouver: the Red Ritchey. "When the Red Ritchey showed up, for me, that changed an awful lot… I could not believe that anybody had made a bike that beautiful. I just, I couldn't take my eyes off it." Not being able to afford the Ritchey himself, he went out back to the Peddler on his lunch break and did some dumpster diving. "I found a Sekine road bike, a 25-inch road bike that was way too big for me. Well, I guess I could have made it work, but that's not what I wanted. I wanted the tubing. I wanted the bottom bracket and things like that."" Same here! The "bike that got away" was the Ritchey Commando. And there one was sitting on the sales floor in 1986 next to me for MONTHS! I could have employee purchased one! Why, oh why didn't I just put in a few more hours in the shop so I could buy it??!!!! (I know why, because my STEM course load at University was kicking my ass and I had to quit the shop job and focus on school. THAT'S why!) But boy is that red Ritchey its equal as a true thing of beauty! I'm with you, sir!!! Quote from Pinkbike. Haven't actually watched the video yet... will do soon!

I was really into bikes when I was a kid, hence why I’m watching you I think. Any ways I liked the bigger cranks for climbing the hills in my little town. I didn’t have any real good bikes just junk I’d find out we could get from the local roses, Walmart, Kmart. Sadly there was no mountain biking magazines in the stores either. That was not a thing. I don’t think this type of bikes came in out area till the 90’s. They were all road bikes at the stores, the typical ten speed. It was fun though as a kid putting two or three junk bikes together and making something.

Learn something every video 👍👌 Cheers Chris

Another good one, thanks Paul and Mitch.

I sent you a facebook message over a week ago, not sure if you`ve seen it ......

Thank you Paul and Mitch!

Awesome!!!

An Allen Millyard video AND a Paul Brodie in the same day.... I am a happy man now. 😁👍 Edit: 420 likes.... Nice. 😂

I recently picked up some "spent" suspension forks (RST, elastomer...) from sometime during the mid 1990s with a removable crown. I might not be the first one to do it, but making some rigid legs for these old crowns could breath new life into many old bikes, without having a boring old unicrown fork, because it's important to give an old bike some style.

Hey Paul down south we have things called pucks that are1/4" to 1/2" thick that we slide under the kick stand 3to4" in diameter to prevent indention into tar or the road 😅

enough poor content, unwatchable and unsubed, bye

This part reminds me of the magnificent Pace RC35 fork.

AMAZING craftsmanship spanning half a century! like a time capsule. I'm both humbled and amazed!

I enjoyed watching this video, I enjoyed listening to you talking about the bike as you built it.

Good as allways❤

Let's wait for Christmas in a little while!

I still hope to snag one of these some day. Great video and an absolute pleasure as always Paul and Mitch. thank you and cheers !!

Walk the Dinosaur 🦕

Awesome video!! Looking forward to the next episode!!

wow.. another video.. give me some popcorns! ☺☺

Great show. Always learning something new. Thanks for sharing.

I still think it should be christened NOTWOZNOT😃

I’d love to hear more about the other Brodie bikes there. The 90s models, their origin, features, etc…. Just more Paul Brodie stories.

Paul- if you turn your speakers upside down so the tweeters are closer to ear level you’ll get better sound

The tie-dye banner looks fantastic! Wish I was a fly on the wall

I keep making BBS , Not enough heat ?

Where do you get your accent from? I assume it's in the UK.

Arr the mock-up masking tape as opposed to the production masking tape. The steam chest collector is a steam dome in train speak. Wobbels the mad Ducatist.

Paul Thank You so much you've been my light and my inspiration. I have had a tough time with bikes. And always say I am an enigma and am misunderstood like a bike. I am writing a short bike history for a promo and I am mentioning you. I hold no credentials in the discipline, but the mastery you propagate is glorious. The levity and acuity of your channel, is a bonus.

Imagine having all the parts..the know how...and end up with a concourse winner.....it really does not get any better than this video and man.

im literaly doing an identical project, but i have run into major money issues, every thing is figured out and ready to start fabing it up, just money is an issue. tho my design uses an EUC motor due to how slim they are (80-70mm wide) so they are PERFECT to run on standard bicycles with a narrow 68mm BB. besides money the other issue (that i have many solution for but all are pricey) is mounting a sprocket to the motor side plate :p but yeah my design pretty much is a fit in every bike solution as long as the triangle is large enough, but even then if its not, cut out the bottom tube and a slap in two new bottom tubes and have the motor sit between them. as for the how to connect the motor chain to the rear wheel? this is the neat part, trails cranks, slap on a freewheel that can mount 2 104bcd sprockets, and you dont need any tensioners for the motor chain, and when using a full suspension BMX, or a slopestyle bike you dont even need a rear tensioner for the chain either since those bikes pivot exactly around the cranks chainrings. so my current project pretty much is a full suspension steel bmx bike. hub to mid conversion as said above (with the motor being able to push 8kw peak at around 400nm torque at the gearing id wanna set) single speed ofc (i thought about belt but chain is just nicer but only bmx chain is strong enough, but is more effient than moto chain :D ) with a easy swapable 72-140v ish batery around 50ah to keep the amps down thus having more eficiency and bigger throtle curve electronics wise. and since this is a OP build, the rear suspension will be ultra stiff with a lockout. the front suspension will literaly be double deck DH fork the inverted kind with a boost hub setup of 20x110mm (working on a front peg mount mechanism there too) the rear on 14x110 (might go rear 20x110mm too if i can find a strong enough hub) with stunt pegs that can take the weight of a full pasanger. front 250mm surron disc brakes x2 due to a special hub with quad piston calipers rear 250mm single with quad piston. and other gimmicks etc. guess the main dif in my build is its more of an ultra strong endurance beast in a small formfactor. and retrofitting as much existing parts as possible to keep the price and complexity down. and ngl kinda like how you made that hub to mid conversion, a french dude i know is building a very sumilar design but he replaced the motors core where the axle is with a custom machined one and custom sideplates too :) wish i had a workshop like you then my project would probs be cheaper to create and easier

A brass spacer would of been way cooler instead of the delrin

Paul you should make some type of small doodad to sell out of brass or copper

Very cool, really made me realize what I lost this past week when somebody stole my 25th anniversary edition Brodie Fury from out front of the gym. I miss my noble Canadian steed.

Just curious, where does one get pistons, rings and rods for Sprints. Also, why the shorter rod? It causes more side thrust from the piston to the cylinder walls but I guess has some benefits as well. I'm just not sure of what they are.

Awesome!

Congratulations ,awesome exhibition, love it.

That looked like a blast..... Wish I lived closer, or could afford to fly there for a couple days. That would probably be a smarter use of a wish... 😂

Great job, we really enjoyed watching you work almost as much as you enjoyed building the rig. Of course those who do not have the industrial machine tools in their garage and relevant skills may as well go and order the Chinese stand bad as this may be.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Congratulations on your show 👏

Watchin this video, it's like bein a child and walk thru the candy store....😎
