In this episode of Dan Escapes I upgrade my vintage road bike. My dad originally bought the Dawes Horizon it in the 90’s and I’ve been riding it as my commuter bike. I recently made extensive changes so the bike runs smoother and better.

I've just had my 1989 Dawes Horizon brought up to date with a 105 group set and new modern wheels. Showed your video to the guy in the bike shop.
Amazing! I was looking at putting 105 11 speed on the Dawes. For me it was going to be a commuter bike so didn’t want to spend too much, although would be a great training bike.
Looks amazing! Hopefully it last another 30 years.
And another 30 after that! Aslong as you look after and service your bikes they will run for along time
nice imma get one of this for just $40 tommorow!!
Great bike!!
i cannot find any information on the dawes horizon online - i have my own its amazing. what size are your tyres btw? did you change them from the original?
I did find a whole PDF of the Dawes catalog collection for 1990s with the horizon in it. I’m running 700x25c wanted to put 28c but don’t think it would fit with the mud guards! I’m running schwalbe marathon plus mainly for the puncture protection.
@@DanEscapes nice one I managed to find that - just did a 6 day bike tour London to Paris on one. I gotta say she's an amazing ride

Don’t go and try to cycle over that frozen pond!
Too dangerous to do that, and danger is not my middle name
*promosm*
A cockpit is an enclosed area I wish people would stop using it makes no sense. Probably came from the halfwits across the pond
A cockpit is also an area where cockfighting takes place. An activity, illegal in many countries, in which people watch as two cocks attack each other. 🤷🏻♂️
