This channel is one of the very few channels that I press "like" before watching the entire video!!! Always a great job. Congratulations.
Awesome thanks 🙏🙌
Same! And always get a little inspiration.
Same here. Love the vibe.
@@automaticraccon Exactly. The vibe is always light and extremly positive.
Been thinking about rebuilding my first mountain bike, a ‘90 High Sierra MOS. Identical frame. Thanks for the inspiration, bud.
Awesome Jeffrey. Good luck with the High Sierra.
Try to keep it 3X.
I'm rebuilding an 88 High Sierra right now, similar 1x wide range setup
Few things are more satisfying than a headset being regreased….well hubs being rebuilt are awesome. I really enjoy a well loved bike being cleaned/tuned up, it feels like it is now the ultimate sleeper ride.
Totally 🙌
When u get security cameras for the safety of ur bikes..... And ur family😁😁 love the way u said it.haha
So I got on my first MTN bike in 1989. In the early 90’s the Schwinn Paramount was the premier MTB that I could not afford! I used to drool over that bike. Awesom.
That is the whole idea of a build like that. Mix and match to see what works and what doesn't. I call it a "velcro" build....throw stuff at it, see what sticks! Fun build. Thanks for another great video!
If I had two nickels for every pair of Oury grips I’ve watched you install… Seriously, Sunday mornings, coffee and an Oldshovel video starts my day right! Thanks for more great content, Rob! P.S. - my ‘87 Schwinn Circuit likes that white Turbo saddle.
Man, and I thought I was a bike parts junkie. I got nothing compared to this guy!
„Parts bin“ is a bit of an understatement here. What a collection!
I had a Paramount back in '91. Great bike with all Shimano XT, Manitou front suspension, Smoke rear tire, Porcupine front tire. Also had Shimano SPD pedals that I busted my butt with several times early on.
I just love the part when you open the drawers and boxes chock full of parts - a mechanic's dream. I unfortunately live in an apartment with a small cellar where my small bike parts shoe box competes with the rest of the family's stuff. Ahhh how I miss the full garage where one can just sprawl out. Thanks again for the great video
Brings back memories of my Paramount PDG 90 with a gorgeous red, white, and blue frame, and a Marzocchi suspension fork, my first suspension equipped bike. It was a great bike but the seatpost seized in the frame (my fault for never greasing the seatpost), and an aggressive last-ditch effort to unseize the seatpost toasted the frame sadly. Nice to see you bring a PDG back to life.
The red white and blue paint job from the pdg 90 is what I had put on my custom Waterford built Schwinn Paramount OS. That paint job was gorgeous.
ever since I watched your video 2 years ago I bought a used neglected no famous brand dusty and rusty bike, washed, cleaned and lubed part by part I replaced the Suntour fork with a rigid and enjoyed it, then bought a used dirt jump bike frame and another used bike to get parts for the DJ , I was inspired by your Specialized DJ bike build. Thanks a lot for giving great ideas and wishing you the best.
Nice sneak peak in the parts bin
Simple mind, Simple build. WOW!
I’ve put a ton of miles on a drivetrain just like that. I gave it to a friend on a bike so he could get out and ride. It was an X9 type 1, shifter and 11-42. It really is a great range for MTB.
Tell tale sign of a true bike mechanic:They always line up the tire logo with the valve stem.🤣
This was really nice to see this bike rescued and on the trails again. I've been a fan of Schwinn since the early 60's, was never able to afford a Paramount, but now days I have a 22 Series and love it , just like the ride better than a carbon fiber. I'm still looking for an older MTB , I'll find it .
I usually give you a like before your done cause I know no matter what.. even if its not my style.. it will be a dope build..
Thanks 🙌
Great rat build restoration old shovel
Lol yep. I wondered if anyone would notice that. I picked it up at the same time I got the Paramount frame. I’m still debating what to do with it.
Appears to be a Reynolds 853 Nevada City. That’s a tough one on what to do with it. Clean it up and ride it is the obvious, but not so exciting for a video. Not quite “racey” enough to justify a retromod build with a new groupset. Could do a flat bar roadie. Or a touring setup for bikepacking
Man, that cloud of dust triggered my asthma. LOL!
That was an absurdly long looking seat tube you pulled out ha
nice job. A rat rod with a sid on it. sweet.
That green steel dust though. I had to cough with you. 😂
😂😂🙌
Pleaseeeee make the giveaway world wide
This channel inspired me to restore a 1989 specialized hard rock it was such a fun build and is super fun to ride . love your videos old shovel! good luck with your future builds!
Dude, I've got a Paramount that I bought in the late 80's. I haven't riden it in probably over 25 years, and it's been sitting, but it's still in good shape. Mine's a road bike, and I'm getting it back on the road. I like that you didn't mess with the old paint. Looks awesome. Yeah. Peace
I wish my spare parts bin looked like that! So full of goodies!
Loved it ! Ride all day and not worry about getting dirty ! Glad to see you picked up a sponsor. I'm sure you've laid out a lot of $ from your own pocket. 👍👍👍
heyyyy Simplisafe!! There you go moving on to the big sponsors, cool to see your channel grow. More cash bigger projects- the more we are rewarded! Yay!
Resto mod rat bikes are the best!
Ah, square tapered cranks, where, on occasion, I'd space out and install them both pointing in the same direction. Love seeing the old parts, brings back memories of my bikes in the late 80s and 90s.
If you put the cranks in the same direction, put SPDs on and pedal in a most curious hopping motion, you get an awesome workout for your lower abdominal muscles. And some very funny looks....
i find peace of mind every time i watch your videos man... Keep it up!
For a Parts Bin Special, that are some special parts! Nice wheel set!
Every time I see a build like this it makes me want to build my old '99 Sunn...
Awesome
Loved the video. I really love your selection of music. Your should put together a pandora station or spotify channel. Thanks
I'm sorry but you getting blasted in the face by that dust is relatable and made me laugh
Lol 😂 😂😂🙌🙌🙌 I put it in there just for you. 😁
I just finished a 90's road bike which I grabbed from a hard rubbish collection. A thorough clean and lube, tires and tubes and a new/old derailleur and it's good as gold. Bikes are like cockroaches 😂
Lol 🙌
Thanks for share this videos bro!! Blessed from abya yala south america !! Very nice restoration and ensembling in this bike bro!!!! Regards!!
For those wondering, the SRAM X9 uses a 1:1 pull ratio, which makes it incompatible with Shimano shifters. I also learned this the hard way hahaha!
Your multiple boxes full of random old bits makes me feel better about having a shed full of "spares" haha.
Love the video, as always 👍👍
bike's a beauty sir
Thanks
I'm from Poland.I like Yours short videos with restoration old bikes 👍 Best regards from Mosina near Poznań in Poland 😉
Super cool frame. Love the bend in the chainstays and the wheels.
Boom! The good ole schwinn before the cheap overseas mass production happened.... I built a bike or 2 that probably cost me $800 in frame and parts that you can now buy better new for $399!!!
Awesome job once again. My first mtb was a 1991 Schwinn High Sierra w/ a paint job that was opposite of that, red w/ black splattered. That bike got me hooked
Awesome 90’s bike frames.
I had the same sierra. Bombed around sacramento to with it. Went to nm and got dropped out the back of a farm truck and kept on rolling. Kicked up chain stay lowered center of gravity a bit, dont know if it helped
I think I like your parts bin builds the best. Most of mine are patina builds.. looks great

Привет, спасибо за подобные видео! Жаль что скорее всего не прочитаешь т.к. пишу на русском
I love that trail!!
Grew up on it back in the '90s
It’s an awesome local one. Just up the street from me.
Great Job I always watch your videos from Edmonton Alberta
Wow That’s a lot of parts
I’m starting to get a lot of spare parts. 😁
This Guy has More Parts than a bike Shop
The actuation is different between Sram and Shimano. Shimano is 1 to 1 while Sram is 1 to 2. That's why the shifter didn't work. I love your videos and that there is another old guy who loves reviving old 26er MTB bikes like myself.
Ah, I was wondering -- haven't finished watching yet but I thought the shifter & derailleur might not match
You've got some really lovely bike trails there!
Another great save /,build 👏I'm on at the moment turning a raleigh pioneer trails into a upgraded trail bike ..old bike giving it some love
The riding/outro footage was awesome. Thanks for another great video.
Awesome thanks
So that’s where all the world’s parts have gone. 😜
...new life to old iron, good one, keep safe...
Thanks Bob
Another wonderful restoration! So evocative the final clip! Just amazing whatever you do! Great!
You make all things with all your soul! Congratulations!
Me gustan mucho tus trabajos y las rutas por las que vas preciosos paisajes FELICIDADES UN SALUDO DESDE ESPAÑA
As you know just love the rat builds
Yeah unfortunately while cassettes and chains are pretty interchangeable you cannot usually use a Sram derailleur with a Shimano shifter and vice versa. The pulls and throws of the shifters and derailleur don't match well. The only exceptions I know about are Sram MRX shifters which are specifically designed to be used with Shimano derailleurs.
É sempre uma alegria quando chega um novo vídeo. Você faz um ótimo trabalho e nos passa uma grande paz. 👏🏼🇧🇷
Tiagra shifters from 4700 series are not compatible with other rear derailleur. I had the same with road shifters from 4700 and 105 derailleur. When i use ultegra shifters all working ok. There is a different string pulling between them.
Great video, although that rear tire needs some work sitting better on the rear wheel or a different tire all together. A great looking bike though, thanks for sharing!
great buil again, btw. Sram and Shimano have different actuation, you can mix em only when using front shifter and mech.
Lol I know. I knew it would be at least a little off and was curious to see if it would be sufficient… it wasn’t.
I would love this bike build
Great vid and a very big fan of what you do. 👍👍👍 The rust damn coming out of the frame wasn’t optimal but when the dust stops spray oil inside and also in the small holes where possible in the frame just to stop even more corrosion and hopefully it will last for many more years 👍👍👍
Good tip
Telaio vintage e componenti moderni.. ottimo 👍
Good call on the white saddle.👌🏻
Bella! Complimenti!
Great job again bud, i really love you vids you really do prove that no matter what age or condition any bike can have new life 👍🚴♂️👌
Я так смотрю, у вас с запчастями полный порядок))).
Awesome build Oldshovel ...nice attitude ...sometimes it don't have to be pretty , it just has to work properly ! Love that ! To the shifter situation most Sram have printed on the cage of the derailleur the shift ratio ... if it's 1:1 then it needs a Sram shifter because they build also deraileurs and shifter compatible to shimano parts but those have a different actuation rate . Well done mate ! I just was confused that you din't do a paint job on this xD but maybe in the future ...who knows ! Can't wait for the next video !
I knew when I installed it that it would be a little off but was hoping it would be “close enough” but it was really not close at all. It was fun to try though.
@@oldshovel Yeah I can totaly understand that ! But it's the same struggle with the older 6-8 gear derailleur those have only about 1mm play on the upper pulley and that's why they don't work with 9 and up but I always modify them to 9 what is very easy to do, and because I personaly love the look of the older derailleur.
Soon as i seen the Tiagra shifter I was like, What are going to pair that with that can take a wide range...Then i saw the X9 and I was like ehhhh naw... Not gonna work, Pull ratio is different. lol Nice try though. :)
Superb and an amazing parts collection too
Nice bike
That bike came out nice indeed 👌, I was however thinking that it wouldn't work with the Tiagra shifter and SRAM derailleur but I'm super stoked about the build regardless, very good job and I live the channel.
Keep it up
Cool 😎
My wife has a Paramount 50 adventure-townie bike.
Un gusto ve como con tanto ainco tu armas las bicis un saludo desde Ecuador amigo
Thank you
great music
Yup, can’t mix/match sram/shimano rears. SRAM is a 1:1 pull ratio and Shimano is 2:1
Wish my parts bin was as comprehensive as yours!
Very cool. I had a 1992 PDG, def interesting bike
What is the reason you put the coin in the grip?
Great video by the way
End caps inside the grips. The nickels are the perfect size.
nice bike:)
I'm on a older Novara chromoly mtb with a dirt jump ridged fork flat VP pedals short pivot stem and nice bar with rise looking to 1 by it not sure to go to 1x10 or 1x9 it it will fit my Shimano silent clutch hub on Araya rims with nipple supports
Hermoso trabajo!! Consultas: No quedó el sillin por arriba del nivel del manillar? A los cables de acero le aplica lubricante? Cómo se llama el tema musical del final? Gracias!!!!
Just in time I was gonna type comment how can sram x9 and shimano tiagra be compatible you showed new shifter :)
great video as always wondering why you make some of your bikes 10 speeds i can never understand the higher speeds and lower speed bikes
Hi! Was that a 1"threaded headset converted to 1 1/8" threadless? I asked because at the beginning of the video the quill stem was hanged.
Shimano and sram usually don't play well in the rear but you can get away with mixing them in the front
Love it!
Really enjoy these videos. Keep it up.
your "parts bin" is like a fully stocked LBS.
I saw a lemond. When is that gonna make a reappearance?
I’m looking at it this morning before Thanksgiving festivities. Sorting out what I have and what I could do. I have some fun ideas.
