Tbh Jeremy is actually really good at shooting on his own
He use to have his own youtube channel I'm pretty sure
@@jeremielamothe4192 Yes, he produced "Behind the Barriers" for years. Definitely worth watching, as it's a great inside the US cyclocross scene show.
Great concept for this series. The absence of judgement & snobbiness about parts as long as it works is refreshing in a sport that can get so carried away with the latest developments in technology. Looking past that and showing what can be done with the smallest realistic budget really encourages accessibility for those who don't have the finances to drop four figures on a bike.
Very true, I have ridden 3,000 miles this year on a 30 pound road bike from 1984 that I got for free and put about $300 into "resto-modding".
Hear, hear!
We need more Jeremy on GCN!
YES!
I appreciate the fact that you left in the little goofs, re-dos, and "mistakes" that happen doing these projects. Instead of editing it out and making it all look like it's easy and took 5 minutes. A lot more genuine.
Appreciate you doing these projects with actual real life realistic part prices! Cool build, too.
Imagine rolling up to your local CX race and JPow lines up on a hoopty fuji...
Jeremy is so refreshing as a presenter. He doesn't act dumb every two minutes like some other presenters here. Really like his style and enthousiasm.
This is epic! Ripping up the trails on a $300 chugger proves that it's all about the rider and not the kit. More of Jeremy on the channel please!
I love this series. Please make more like this! It's so inspiring to see someone who is more than capable working on a fun "what if" kind of project. Anything with Jeremy is going to be pure gold!
Iâm pretty sure proximity to epic off-road trails was at the top of Jeremyâs list when he last moved house!
Great Job Jeremy, love this and Ollie's TT bike build project đ. Literally recycling.
Iâm pretty much old school my bikes are
3 steel and 1 aluminum and I hang with all my friends in there carbon bikes.
I love the way the bike looked in the end great job can not wait to see how u do in the next episode . Awesome GCN /Jeremy episode representing the good old USA đ
Lovinâ it. Bike projects are the only thing to keep you sane in Covid lockdown
You are right about that. I bought a low price entry level gravel bike and over time bought better components to rebuild. It was fun figuring out what would work, and finding parts on sale on line. Every time I received a new component in the mail was like getting a birthday present. Best part was I could still ride what I had while waiting for new part delivery. I moved the parts I replaced on an old 2003 bike which I gave to my brother.
Once the lockdown is over I would love to see Jeremy on a Gravel/CX bike go against GMBN, that would be a much better comparison than setting Ollie up for failure against Blake :)
More like IF EVER the 'Lockdown' is over. I wouldn't count on the Deep State relinquishing their Power anytime soon there buddy.
I'd like to see JP vs Brick vs Si. Also, bring in Matt for old times sake.
Hey!
I really enjoyed Ollie (failing massively) against Blake. He rode how I would have, except better.
Love seeing old bikes turned into something useable and fun (and for
Jeremy, delighted you brought a vintage Fuji back to life and are so pleased with it! In '77 I bought a Fuji America, their top touring bike then, hand-made in Japan under Dr Shoichiro Sugihara. It's 52,42 up front, 14 to 30 (6) in back, 38cm handlebar, and 24 lb. With 35cm Panaracers in front and 32 in back (widest that'll fit), it's still giving me great Kansas gravel rides. Thanks for these episodes!
im a mechanic at a local shop- i recently rebuild a Red. yellow, and blue Fuji Cross, true temper 4130, I think it was an american built Fuji - and did EVERYTHING TO IT and threw on some 32mm conti 4 seasons (he had 20mm slicks on), supacaz tape, and brakepads, did allot of new cables and housing, new front derailleur (his original one had been replaced with a mtb triple that did not play nicely with his STI shifters) and a chain and cassette, 11-28, the bike is a MACHINE now
I'm surprised by just how much I've enjoyed watching someone else bungle through bike maintenance just like me!
Haha yes, like cabling up the brakes and then realising the hoses are crossed - tbh I would have taped the bars by then lol - rookie
This is the kind of series i really love!
On the budget like me and I guess, the majority of viewers ,who don't have thousands of dollars to spend in a fancy bicycle!
Your happiness is so genuine and contagious!and I know that feeling!
There's just something about refurbing an old ride. I share your excitement & am happy to see this thing rolling.
Love that your Wahoo is worth more than your bike :)
Is it though? it is nut what a few bits of plastic copper and silicon costs vs the entire material cost of that bike.
This was a great series. I love the rehab. Enter this baby into the @GCNTECH show.
Nothing more fun than bringing a old bike back to service, I find them in the trash all the time fix them, ride them and then donate them to our local Mission, makes me feel good and helps out the less fortunate
This series is great.. good to see a top pro rider using affordable components and genuinely enjoying the results.. no snobbery just getting on with it.. an inspiration to us that live in the real world and can't afford ÂŁ3000.00 machines..
Love the video! I did a similar build with a trek multitrack 750. Did my 1st two cx races in it. Got lots of positive comments about it. I feel like there should be way more of this type of stuff.
Hyped. Can't wait to see people get old schooled.
Great Video looking forward to you thrashing it on the cross course!
Wow its SR Custom, i love this brand. I feel glade when GCN uploads all about vintage roadbike.
Awsome build and filming project. I love it
I would never bet against you JP in any kind of cross race. Looking forward to the next episode and seeing the competition. You really put that bike through its paces already - Great Series
Yes itâs backkk
Your enthusiasm is contagious, Jeremy! Thanks for the video, it's inspiring :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Cool concept, this should be a regular series. So refreshing to see those old bikes being revived.
I'm finishing my 26" to 700cm gravel road do all ...a 99' klein attitude now with drops and kenda kouriers in a 38 ...linear brakes with pro max extensions in the rear and a funky diy in the front to hit rim...I have old manitou or Judy shocks to use with disc mounts ...will do soon on the front ...46/34 and 11-34 9spd...just needs a fine tune and better parts...tiagra rear and brifters real old ...its mostly or all parts bin now ...found the wheels and the tires in excellent shape ...its gonna get the bulk of the miles this winter and possibly most next year....$$$tight
The most honest video on GCN so far. Who doesnât love taking home bike parts delivered by another one. Great work J Pow
Jeremy: This chain's only $13.27, it'll be here tomorrow.
Me: Cries in Australian
Hmm, KMC Z7 can be had for âŹ6.49 here in Lithuania in 2 business days. Why would this ubiquitous low-end consumable cost AU$25 as it seems to do Down Under is a mistery!
$12 in Norway, including shipping.
Don't know when it'll be here though, with the Norwegian post. So could be here tomorrow, maybe next week. Who knows?
Kiwi here, feeling your pain mate.
I rode mtb most all my days since 88' I'm 51 ...seattle
...the mtb freed you back then and it was great...I ignored the road snobs and grew old riding the klein less and less off road...got an 85' eddy Merckx pro from a storage default for 250$ in excellent condition...turned me into a roadie and now Jeremy is turning me into a cyclo cross gravel head...makes since tho...cant tell ya how peeps have said I should do cyclocross over the years ...the way I commuted and rode was cyclo Cross...yeesh
A mechanics perspective on the build. It gets the job done... who cares what she looks like. Good work!
I really like this series and how he breathed new life into this bike, it inspired me to take on a retro build.
This is what I love to do and the content I love the most! If you know what your doing ou can build a sick bike for next to nothing. A couple things: Look into a quill to 1 1/8th adapter. They cost $10-$20 and are well worth it. Also converting the front crank to 2x without chain drop should have been a matter of adjusting the inside limit screw? Anyways more of this!!
JD! Now I recognize him from UMASS rides in the late 90âs with the candy cane striped Douglas Auction uni
So refreshing to see a guy with an arsenal of "super bikes" enjoying a cheap build and ride!
Watch jeremy test this bike, this bike seems good and he also fit, this soooo goood
Jeremy youâve already won, regardless of the outcome đ€
I grew up in Amherst, love seeing western Mass.
Great video and great to see Jeremy!
Yeah boyeeee! Super nice job đ
Interesting bike and the video.
Few months ago I bught similar touring bike for about 40$, tires were blown, bar tape was fell off and chain was ready for replacement. I stripped all the parts, sand blasted the frame and powder coated it. The bike came wery good and it is fantastic to ride.
Awesome series!. I found a Jamis Coda hybrid in a trash bin few years ago and rebuild it as a Cross bike too, cool thing about it...it was made with Reynolds steel, It was so much fun. I donated it to a friend of mine needing a good commuter.
This is a great series. I converted a Trek 7600 hybrid to a cross bike years ago - before there was widespread availability (at least in the US) of dedicated cross bikes. I love the bar-ends! And have the rear brake routed to the left hand lever for simultaneous dismounting/deceleration. I loaned the bike out to someone and they replaced the bar-ends with STI and I was VERY SAD when they returned the bike! To each their own, I suppose.
Get some kool stops! Looks like you're still riding the original break pads. It'll do a lot of you've still got it in your budget
Hopper would be proud! Great job JPow!!
Jeremy! Dude! Bike looks awesome! Go ahead and splurge $10 for a x2 front mech! Fall in Massachusetts is a great season. But 33 degrees this morning meant another cup of coffee before getting out. đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł. Canât wait to see how this build stacks up against some competition! Keep up the great work!
I want to BE Jeremy...relentlessly enthusiastic without seeming fake....loaded yet scratching around for cheap or swap parts....damned good rider...knows way round any bike. đ
Congrats! I really loved your enthusiasm during the project, it cheered me up!
Nice to see someone excited!
Such a cool project giving new life to a bike. During the supply shortages for new bikes and parts seen with the global lockdown this is a great series to show how you can build a bike for a purpose through bartering and investing some time. I was able to repurpose a couple of road bikes I didnât ride any longer and had no market before the lockdown, but since cycling was generally allowed in the US there was a demand for solid entry level bikes. Not everyone needs CarbĂłn and disc brakes. Good luck in the race. I predict this bike will measure up well
The thrill of rebuilding an old and unuseable bike into riding condition never gets old. Almost more fun than a new bike because you have low expectations.
Very cool build. In 2001 I built a budget cyclocross bike. I bought a Haro CSX aluminum frame on a blowout for for $250.00. I found a Campy Grand Sport double crank with
Mans was riding on some full on mtb trails. Big props.
This part was also so nice! Really liked the series so far. What a nice winter inspiration. Thank you for that GCN team and especially Jeremy!
Last year, at age 63, I decided to dip my toes into CX. I have a Giant Farrago hybrid (flatbar w/CroMo tube frame and canty's) bike that I got for free from a neighbor that moved. I had been using it as my rail trail bike. A co-worker gave me Giant alloy handlebars. I bought a quill adapter and a stem ($10 ea.). I bought a pair of Micro New 3x7 shifters off Ali Express ($37) and SPD pedals for $30. New cables for $11 and a pair of wheels, local, off Ebay for $70 (Challege tubs, f. Campy hub, r. Shimano 105 hub.) Oh, and $8 for handlebar tape. Used an old Brooks Professional saddle from another bike on a seatpost given to me by another bike buddy. Total of $176. Well under $300! Unfortunately I had prostate cancer complications this year and can't race, but there's always next year!
I love bike rehabs. This is a fun one. I just found a Raleigh Technium sitting in a trash pile earlier this week. Trying to decide how I want to clean it up. Needs a lot fixed up....
Love this series! You guys should do this with a road bike too and a little higher budget, like maybe $500?
This was a great project, I like the budget challenges, different tiers and different disciplines. Great tips and ideas. Keep up the great work!
Love how real this video was. Relatable prices, plus back forth deals, and a great bike at the end of it all
Finally a good video, itâs been quite a while.
Cool series - that bike is a great value built up the way you have. In addition to a cyclocross use, it would be great for bikepacking or gravel riding.
I ran a triple with original front deraileur and triple shifter, with small ring removed with no problem. I just adjusted the stops to prevent the deraileur (and me) from selecting the now non existent small ring.
Looks really good. I'd be happy riding that down the lane! Good work.
I love this series! So good! Bike turned out sick!
Superb! Well done for making such a worn out thing so sweet and rideable. I just canât imagine how you guys ride the paths you ride. That chest cam footage was terrifying.
Jeremy has mad off-road skills for sure
Cool. Like to see old bikes done up.
nice work and love the authentic approach and more relaxed Jeremy in this series- this Fuji should be entered in screw upgrades buy upgrades đ
I'm loving the Massachusetts honesty system of payment/barter ^_^
Jeremy, your camera work is as amazing as your bike mechanics and handling! What a great series! Thank you!
This was an awesome series, and I feel you did an amazing job with the build. Here is what I would love to see with this build though. As of course YOU know better than anyone, racing requires a continued investment, and why not now continue with a "Now you have the bike, lets go racing" series. Start with $500 for some upgrades, essential gear, and a race entry. This could go for Cyclocross, Gravel, etc. I am currently building a Gravel race bike on a budget, as a challenge, and will be racing (hopefully,.. Damn COVID) a few races come 2021.
Awesome build, Jeremy, nothing not to like about affordable bikes constructed of metal, especially with cool blue frames like yours. And it'd be interesting to see your times/performance on your bike with those wheels v. a modern rim brake wheelset purchased either new or used at a good price.
I got to tell you it's really nice when you come on CZcams trying to do some research about turning a vintage steel bike into a cyclocross and then you find a multi-part instructional series of a professional doing exactly that. Love love
Sweet build! Inspire one to build their own
Good video Jeremy. Authentic.
Very enjoyable video and love seeing this old bike bring a smile
I can't wait for episode 3......if Mathieu or Wout show up for the race your in trouble!!
Jeremy, you're awesome. Loving the theme and also loving the colours up here in Canada. Cheers!
JD called; he wants he rear rack back! Edit: ohhhh it actually made it back to JD đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Tbh, He charged way too much for that bike for the condition it was in. Still, it all worked out in the end.
@@prestachuck2867 I feel like Jeremy accepts that because he keeps tossing in parts as extras. Living in NYC, that isnât worse than the prices Iâve seen here and Boston can be pretty close to NYC price wise at times.
Jeremy's a G, love this vid
Pedal spanners. Always a great way to skin your knuckles. On a different note, Jeremy is a natural in front of a camera, and seems a really positive guy. I think in the long term he'll do well in cycling media, if he stays involved in it.
He's been in cycling media for well over 10 years, so we hope he will continue!
Bravo JPows !!! People at GCN listen up, we need more real life cycling videos on here!!!
Proving once and for all, it's not the bike, its the rider.
Great video brings back the cyclocross bike in the late 80's.
This is a fun series! Would be cool to see Jeremy take this bike out for an epic gravel ride/tour to hit some mud and slush and put down some real miles.
I have enjoyed you Cross Bike rebuild. Look forward of more stories and adventures Jeremy!
Solid Bike. Still use my old 531 Cross bike for training on.. Maybe improve the braking with some mini V brakes .. Best way to go on a budget . get creative with older frames and equipment..
When you were threading the bars through the stem, it brought back a memory of when I did that only to find out I had the bars reversed and had to undo them and rethread them. You are right, the face plate is much easier.
Jeremy's vids are always top notch, both vid and bike are gems. Now I'm going to be running 30c cyclo's on my fitness bike this winter for sure. Can't wait for the third installment! Keep up the good work!
I love this bike! In fact, I'm envious of being able to find such a nice bike for such a low sum!
Very excited to see the next installment! Good stuff Jeremy!
I can't ride like this on my old hardtail MTB. it's all about the rider. Great skills JPow!
Highly entertaining. How many of us are now searching ebay for cheap CX frames. I just bought a Kinesis Crosslight 5T
You'll still destroy me on that bike while I'm on my modern Fuji cross bike. No doubt there.
I can't wait to see how you do against the monsters in Northampton. Carrying an extra 8 lbs on your bike is going to make things interesting.
Fantastic series. I love this concept. My first cross bike was built out of an early 90's Diamondback hybrid, so this is very relatable.
