  • If you didn’t see Part 1, this may not make a ton of sense. Also if you are new to the channel, we make other videos than these that are actually helpful and give you information. This is just something we had wanted to do for a while for fun! #bikingroots, #mtbfor$150, #mountainbike
    Part 1 here:
    • $75 Cheap Bike Challen...
    In part 1, we had a $75 budget to go out and find the best mountain bike we could find. Had to be a mountain bike. We all went different directions as you saw.
    In part 2, we had an additional $75 to modify the bikes with parts laying around the shop, our own personal spare parts, or had to buy at retail parts needed at the shop.
    As you can see in the video, we all had different ideas.

    The Huffy actually looks like a decent, entry level hardtail. The Specialized looks dialed for an upgraded 90s MTB. I’d have to go with the Huffy as the winner though.

      Thanks for the comment. Yeah the Huffy turned out good minus that it weighs the most at 37lbs! It needs some work, but could potentially be a good bike for someone. Thanks!

    Hot In Houston No way 🤣 The Rockhopper is definitely the coolest bike in the challenge

    Great video, love the fun, relaxed atmosphere you have with your staff. I would love to be part of the team, but I live in Canada, anyway keep the fun going :)

      Thanks, appreciate the comment! Tims headed out tomorrow to join the Army so we'll miss him. Dang, Canada sounds like a lot of fun. Maybe we'll just move our operations up there! It's too hot and flat here lol

    Lets upgrade the Huffy Scout and make it Nukeproof Scout 😂😂

    • @BikingRoots
      @BikingRoots  Před 11 měsíci

      Ha, oh yeah I forgot about the Nukeproof Scout! So many Scouts out there apparently. Yeah, it could be done... but.... ha!

    This is a cool idea but it would be better if the participants took it more seriously and didn’t buy kids bikes. FB market place is full of cheap and capable bikes but of course much older and needing repairs.

    • @BikingRoots
      @BikingRoots  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Ha, agreed. That's my fault, I should have been more clear, that they had to be adult bikes! I guess that's what happens when you ask kids to go buy bikes for the video. Oh well, it was fun. Yeah, FB market place had a lot of junky Walmart bikes, but I was patient and waited for mine to show up.
