For some reason I'm super hyped whenever you build an XC bike. Especially such a cool build like this! Keep it up!

[@oldshovel]

Thanks

[@dondonoplimo]

So wholesome! The giveaway, their reaction, to you guys hiding in the next door yard, and retrieving the gopro 😂 even the video quality. A truly lovely thing. What a great community you guys have and I hope nothing stops you from making people happy.

[@oldshovel]

Thanks 🙏

[@jjonesmtb]

You are so kind to the community. Thanks for doing so much for the youth (our future)!

[@oldshovel]

Thanks my friend

[@katybeard]

This bike is even more sick irl. Noli KILLS IT on this bike!

[@bradberry117]

Well done! You have to do a follow up segment on the first ride & reaction when Nolie gets out onto the trails.
Thank you for the great content. It is inspiring and infectious

[@oldshovel]

From what I heard she was out riding that night (it was late, around 9:30 pm when we dropped it off). She also was out riding it early the next morning for a team practice ride.

[@josechaves9480]

Big fan from Costa Rica! My MTB and I can only dream about a restauration from Old Shovel... ✨🌋✨✌️😎

[@oldshovel]

Thanks

[@brentirvine2336]

Ok, you got me teary-eyed with this one. Great job!

[@brentirvine2336]

Not sure what that means, but if this is not a scam, please donate the bike to a kid in need if I win.

[@dtj9923]

I have to congratulate you on the early 90's Klein paint job. It looks like an Adroit or Attitude from the golden days of Klein. Very cool build.❤

[@Bikeops2021]

Absolutely amazing, what a fantastic thing to do.
Awesome donations from the cycling world, restores ones faith in human kindness. And of course how much they think of you for helping local communities. Hope the young lady will cherish the bike forever.
You're an absolute legend OS!

[@thomasstewart1417]

I have been building bikes for a long time and old shovel gave me the love of bikes back

[@paultaylorbikes]

At the end I got flash backs to all the pranks and surprises we did in high school 🥹. Awesome episode!

[@Donovangulya]

At this point you are a professional painter you have gotten so much better at your paint jobs this one is crazy cool. As a nica rider as well it’s so great that your helping your local team there are so many kids that deserve a great bike

[@suraj_jagdale]

I really appreciate the way you are doing such a beautiful thing to a child. Love from India ❤

[@oldshovel]

Thanks 🙏

[@sdq605]

thanks! tears rolling

[@paulcombes3782]

The BEST thing I have viewed in ages . . . . massive respect to all .

[@rubendevereaux6086]

That's the coolest thing in the world!! It's awesome how you can be the blessing and answer to people's prayers, whether vocalized or not

[@easyrider75]

That's awesome. The bike looked amazing. Great paint job and parts.👍

[@oldshovel]

Thanks

[@armandojuan64]

Those are my favorite mountain bike videos . What a selfless labor of love and giving .

[@thomassciaroni6942]

You're such a good Dad!!

[@oldschooldude3500]

Totally awesome. What a great way to give back. The build looks sweet. Great job.

[@radiocontrolled9181]

Great job keep up the good work! Giving new life to old stuff is fantastic!

[@jvlsgames4446]

Yes, perfect, all aligned, the perfect color, all perfect

[@TheBarrettCompound]

Very nice paint job, I thought i was a pro painter of bike frames and parts. You sir are Elite. 🙏 Awesome build.

[@waynetrini]

You are an artist when it comes to paint jobs!

[@freedomwon2004]

Wow! Great job!!! That's so cool!!! All of you Rock!!!!

[@oldshovel]

Thanks

[@JDM417]

Awesome video. Loved the fact that you took your time and showed the building process. It was all for a great cause. Just subscribed. 😁🚴🏻‍♂️

[@elliotthopkins8174]

Three way late 80s fluoro paint. Lush!!

[@oldshovel]

Thanks

[@matthewelliott1976]

that just made my day man! warms my heart to see you do that kinda stuff!

[@johnsonjay60]

Amazing job !! As always. That bike pops!!

[@oldshovel]

[@byrondot]

You are a man with a huge heart. Thanks for share this lovely video with us! Big hug!

[@decentdad1160]

Awesome to see- I love the generosity- always passing it forward. Keep it up.

[@oldshovel]

Thanks

[@ricosuavez_uk]

Massive salute for adding the
dropper-post! 🫡
Great Video and such a sweet XC ride 😎

[@daledubose3032]

So awesome. As a NICA coach myself, I say thank you.

[@oldshovel]

And I’ll say the same to you, thank you for your service. 🙌

[@daledubose3032]

@TELEGRAM ME:@oldshovel what is this? Looks like a scam.

[@2scoops624]

Love it. Anyone would be so fortunate to receive such quality components and frame. Even better that it goes to a deserving youth on the local MTB team. Sick paint fade and color matching parts

[@scottknapp8984]

Brilliant. So much fun to watch for reasons beyond the build.

[@andrewpritchett4058]

so awesome and your attention to detail is amazing.

[@entme8905]

Awesome build and the whole thing. You are so generous man!

[@RickPfeister]

Absolutely loved this video...the rebuild and the backstory were great!

[@k.c.8447]

Wow!!!what biking is all about. Nice work to all involved!!

[@edwardweiszbeck1649]

That was an awesome give away at the end. Total mind blower for them. And when in life, as an adult, do you get to have your mind blown. It's rare. By then we've all seen it all...or so we think !
Well done. 🤞

[@felixjackson2670]

What a superb build. Lovely thing to be able to do.

[@benboo6351]

The colour match between frame, grips and paint 🤩

[@somethingfatal]

That bike looks so sick.... I'm gonna start tearing down my old fire mountain!!!

[@ecymbura31]

One of the sickest bikes I’ve ever seen! Job well done man

[@bearded_borg]

This is awesome. Much love for you guys!

[@9987molly]

Loved the togetherness in this video. The bike was also nice too.

[@CoolBikeProjects]

So rad! Great work Rob and the whole team :)

[@brianmulford2061]

One of the best videos I have seen in a very long time. I love what you do!!

[@edjack1993]

Sweet paint job. Amazing work!

[@djdoublefaceTV]

[@drewsenthused6079]

Lotta lucky kids in your area! Keep up the great work!

[@matthewelliott1976]

[@mitchellsworld7570]

I love the quality and skill u put in to these bikes your a good man u remind me of my dad how u do things 👍

[@monkist]

Wow, the paint job was extraordinary (as usual) but I think your talent really shines with these creative ideas. Wish I could have you paint my bike like this too😅

[@bicicletasantigasdoendrigo6941]

Sou fã do seu trabalho!! Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏

[@danielwallace7645]

Of all the videos on your channel, this is my favorite video yet.

[@wilsarno]

Incredible paint job such a good contrast to the black rims and fork. I’d have that all day!

[@timmcdowell3097]

Awesome paint job on this one and definitely a great story. Keep doing the do my man it’s an inspiration

[@Jinedan]

That is truly awesome. It’s videos like these that make your channel very special. Also, as a coach, I chuckled watching student-athletes ride without helmets - wondering which coach would make them do burpees.

[@MikeBrown-eq6tz]

Great job. That looks incredible 👍🏼

[@name2594]

Im excited for my bike to repaint also, you inspired me a lot..bring the old bike to Life😁❤️❤️❤️

[@oldshovel]

Awesome

[@JulianGonzalezarona]

Beautiful as always sir. So kind!

[@dwtlax]

Better than ASMR. Thanks for the gift you bring to kids.

[@oldshovel]

Thanks

[@dwtlax]

@TELEGRAM ME:@oldshovel yes. Sure! What do you need?

[@mountainsmoore3657]

So awesome! I hope that Noli gets a lot of good use out of it! I must say, though...I have no idea how in the world that you kept that many people quiet enough to not give you away!!! Good job!

[@seandan68]

Nice job . Love watching videos like this. Keep it up!!!

[@roseworld8091]

Wow, excelllent result!!

[@socapex]

Good job matching your shirt with the new colors!
Afaik best practice is to lube the inside of the chain.

[@26ozkan]

Again, You put a big smile on our faces :) greetings from Turkiye.

[@Jun235sg]

Waoh waoh waoh... Amazing build.

[@jny78]

I love this channel! Every time you get me all weepy eyed. You are amazing

[@jny78]

@TELEGRAM ME:@oldshovel old shovel isn’t giving away a bike. You fraud

[@InitialP_Photography]

That paint job was so cool, reminiscent of old Kleins.

[@woutermvt]

That bike looks amazing!

[@oldshovel]

Thanks 🙏

[@joshplatt9941]

I love watching your videos!! Great job on the build and giveaway

[@romankotowski]

lol. my favorite part was the sneaking around at the end.

[@sop953]

Bro, let me represent Noli and say a big thank you to you. Thank you sir.

[@eulenemonis7360]

greatjob sir i hope to have a bike like that,

[@000207poosh]

You are one of a kind! 🙏

[@user-ot4vf5ss8i]

Awesome color 👍👍👍

[@kennith.]

Getting the GoPro back was hilarious.

[@jamilangon5798]

That's a sick looking Neon colored XC with Magura on it! (Kinda want that one as well XD )

[@robertgrell486]

great material 👍

[@harryrichards4654]

Wow love this restoration/upgrade but surely a bolted seat clamp instead of a quick release one with a dropper would be so clean, and also not to offend your painting inspiration but the base layers of the silver with the blue decals actually looked so sick. These are just things I would have done but loved this build

[@martinspencer5148]

Good on you mate!

[@kevincosnerfacebook8348]

Keep It UP, HARRY!

[@usagrunt100]
