They also cover the latest MTB tech news, the Quiz, and a bumper Rewind section. What better way to celebrate Doddy's final Tech show with us. We'd like to thank him for all of the good times and knowledge shared over the years! See you on the trails 🚵

    What was your favourite bike from the Malverns Classic Show and Shine? Is there a retro bike you’ve always wanted? If money was no object what would you be trying to source?

    • @floydblandston108
      @floydblandston108 Před 9 měsíci +1

      I'm cheap; Moots YBB, and Turner Stinger are the only two I've never managed to find used for a price I'd bite for. If I was to drop big green on a bike now, it would be for something unobtainable, like a custom fat tire ebike in Reynolds 953 with belt drive, a Rohloff rear, and carbon bits everywhere else. That being said, I can still spend half a day staring at old C-dale fat tube hardtails....😊

      @thealliest Před 9 měsíci +1

      The full Ti Xizang was my halo bike when I was a kid. I would love to get one with modern geo and 29” wheels. The OG Ti Hei Hei was also up there. Oh…. And a Richey Team Edition with the softride stem that Frischy rode. So many to choose from but those are my all time favorites

      A Bontrager Race Lite like I used to own in the 90's. Sold it cheap when I was desperate for cash in '99. One of my dumber moves in life, for it was an absolute barnstormer of a cross country bike.

    Doddy is a one off, he has passion, integrity, vast knowledge and a very real love of mountain bikes. He has crafted his shows, which comes across to the viewer. that's why they are the best on your network by a mile.

    Doddy the legend will be missed. Always feel like I am hearing from an old friend who lived all the same MTB experiences I lived back in the day. My first serious ride was a Giant CFM3 1992 and I changed the fork to the original Girvin with the yellow elastomers Would love to see one again!!! Love to own it again

  • @connorcampbell144
    @connorcampbell144 Před 9 měsíci +52

    I’m 17 and If it wasn’t for doddy with his knowledge on the tech channel I wouldn’t have got myself a bike mechanic job in a bike shop and then going on to run a class teaching people how to maintain and build bikes. I’m really grateful as I now have a love for retro mountain bikes since I found the channel in 2020. All the best with your future 🚵🏻🚵🏻‍♂️

    The show won't be the same without you Doddy. Seem like a real down to earth guy with true knowledge and genuine passion for all things MTB.
    Couple of dream bikes i couldn't afford at the time... the Mantis Pro Floater Carbon , Mountain Cycles San Andreas,
    and after just seeing it, that Xixang Titanium.

    @ish474 Před 9 měsíci +2

    I keep meaning to send in my bike to the uploader. I bought it in 2019 and realized that I have replaced every part except the seat. Just did a refinish on my frame and now I'm dissapointed that Doddy won't see it. He is a big part of my MTB content and sopmeone I'd really like to show something I'm proud of!

  • @lufo5

    @zephyrmansor Před 9 měsíci +2

    When I started riding 2 years ago, this channel was the first MTB channel I subscribed to. Learning all the tech stuff to be able to strip my bike and put it together, Doddy has been on that journey with me. I would like to thank you for sharing your immense knowledge and history of MTB with the rest of us. Good luck to your future endeavours and you will be missed.

  • @nicocornelis5926

    @mattkavanaugh5623 Před 9 měsíci

    Bye bye Doddy! It is a sad day. You are the best and you will be hugely missed. You have inspired me to dive into bike mech that carried me through the pandemic. And I have to admit after watching many many hours of GMBN Tech videos, this is the first and only one that made me cry. Best wishes for your new endeavors and I hope we get to share some of your future on CZcams or otherwise!

  • @tylertomasko
    @tylertomasko Před 9 měsíci

    Thank you, Doddy! You have been my go-to source for MTB tech and tips since I got into MTB about the same time the tech show started. If it wasn't for you and all the others at GMBN, I would have never gotten the confidence to take a bare frame and turn it into my dream bike. Wish you the best in your future endeavors and hope to see you again, maybe as a guest on the GMBN channels again.

  • @photofire100

    Really going to miss you Doddy here in SoCal USA. I’ve enjoyed your vids so much over the years and gained loads and loads of knowledge. Much appreciated friend from this ol’ 72 y/o Levo rider. Pls keep everyone in the loop as to your next endeavors.
    Cheers 🎉

    I am a huge Doddy fan. My very first comment to him I actually addressed him as Andrew but was quickly corrected. Over the years I grew to LOVE all his content. Such a wonderful guy and I will miss him dearly. I will still get my Doddy fix through his Instagram posts. Love you Doddy. Good luck on your next adventure.❤

    You can't name a more iconic duo than Doddy & GMBN Tech! You've been an incredible presenter, bike nerd and educator for these past 6 years Andrew!
    You will be missed, not just by us viewers but I'm sure everyone at at the GCN/GMBN offices.
    Anna you're an incredible human, really wholesome ending, I think there was someone cutting onions near me while watching, as tears were forming.

  • @MadLFC
    @MadLFC Před 6 měsíci +1

    What Doddy brought to GMBN was his great credibility in bike knowledge. His skills as a journalist also proved to be a great strength as he was able to put across any detail of mountain bike technology without it being overly complicated or patronising. His leaving feels like the end of a era. Not sure GMBN Tech will be the same again.

    Retro bikes… I loved all my ProFlex bikes. 854, 855, 856, and 857. So innovative even 10 years after new they were “state of the art.” (My first 1x conversion was in ‘95)

    Doddy
    You introduced me into having a go at maintaining my bike after getting back into biking following a massive accident at work. From that I’ve watched GMBN loads on how to improve myself as a rider
    I’m a mechanic at heart and loved your videos on how adjust and maintain anything on a bike and make it look easy giving me the confidence to do it myself
    You and your teams videos have helped me loads with giving me back some freedom on the trails and at home tinkering on my bikes after some dark times a few years ago after my accident
    Thank you and good luck on your next venture

    OMG how did I miss this? Where are you going Doddy? I've been watching GMBN for years and have to say the TECH show is what keeps me coming back. I was going through a pretty rough break up around the time Doddy started and boy did Doddy and GMBN help me remember what's important.

    I have to admit I am a little Choked up. Anna and the boys really knocked it out of the park with the gifts! Doddy, you have been my favorite presenter in the MTB space. In fact I would give partial credit to my return to the sport to you! I live in NYC and had started riding a Specialized Turbo Vado around for commuting. I watched you vid about securing bikes, which lead to more vids....and well here I am. I'm Even building my own bikes these days. Thank you for everything, I cant wait to see what's next!

    Best of luck doddy. When I 1st started mountain biking I hammered the tech videos learning so much. Feels like the end of an era, thanks for the content and all the best. 🤙🏻

    Doddy is undoubtedly the best part of this entire outfit, and will be sorely missed. I wish him the very best in his new role, and look forward to learning where I can follow. And maybe buying a bike from a brand smart enough to recruit him.

    Doddy was the first MTB CZcams presenter I watched when I first started down my biking journey 2 years ago and his calm and non-intimidating approach to bike tech and maintenance has been a big help getting this passion for me off ground. Be well Doddy. Good Luck.
