Very Special Cyclocross Bike Build
Vložit
- čas přidán 13. 12. 2022
- In this video, I am building a cyclocross bike with a frame handmade by one of my good friends Zak Hinderyckx. He is a frame builder located in Port Townsend, Washington. I really enjoyed this bike build and it definitely became one of my favorite bikes to ride to date. It is super fun, fast, and light!

She's a beaut!
What a sick build! Reminds me a lot when I was young and dreaming of those spinergy wheels for cross
Thank you! They were great during the cross race, but probably not ideal since these are very old and dangerous to ride! Be sure to check the condition before using if you’re planning on getting a wheelset eventually.
You just can't beat cyclocross geometry. Beautiful build
Thank you!
Cowboy Tomi: "I love it when a plan comes together"
Is what I guess you'd say finishing all these wonderful builds.
Thank you. I literally say this to myself every time. Everything happens for a reason!
Sick bike
Thank you!
Thinking about buying bike tools, finding an old and cheap mountain bike, and using your videos as a guide to rebuild it
Amazing! Thank you, I'm glad my videos are helpful to you and others. Bike tools are a great investment, my channel literally started from the Park Tool beginners bike mechanic tool that was given to me from 718Cyclery located in Brooklyn, NY. Then the tool collection slowly grew from there, depending on what tool I needed next.
very special
20 speed ftw! Old school 😎
Love this gear ratio so much!
Sweet ride 👌
Hell yeah. Get it Cambodian Cowboy! This build is sick.
Thanks brody!!
Wooow sick build
Thank you!
another great cowboy tomi build!!!!!!!!! thanks for sharing the love homieeeeeeee!!
What a great bike. Love it. For my mind 2x10 or 2x11 works great. Not a fan of 1x.. love simplicity..user friendly maintenance. Canti brakes worked great for decades!
Cantilever brakes still work very well. For all the braking i do i prefer them over the brake squeal, rotor drag and maintenance routines associated with discs. The only downside is rim wear. Meh.
Thank you! Can never go wrong with a 2x group, it covers a lot of ground as far as riding goes. I totally respect the 1x in keeping it minimal, but I just love my gears! And Canti’s ftw, so simple to work on and did great in the (very muddy) cross race.
That bike is total sickness. Nice work.
Thank you!
been seeing this on your IG finally!
Thank you!
Beutifull build
Thank you!
Hahahah the shoutout!! Glad to help just a tiny bit with this epic build 🤘🏼 much love
beauty!
Thank you!
Thank-you, Tomi.
Thank you!
beautiful build!
Thank you!
Wow hermosa
Thank you!
Nice work it Came up a treat
Thank you!
Oh my god, I was waiting for this video. Love it!
Thank you!!
Very cool !
Thank you!
wow sick build, !! love those spinergys, makes the bike look like something out of akira or something ! cheers!
Thank you! Akira is goated 💯
Thank you! Akira is goated 💯

the bike looks great, though i would be scared to ride these spinergys offroad
Thanks! It was scary, but that’s what makes it fun!
@@CowboyTomi thats the spirit 😆
Recently traded my old gravel bike for a Bridgestone Anchor C9, its more like a touring bike but close to cyclocross when it comes to geometry. Currently running it singlespeed, but this build made me want to put more miles on it and maybe add a 2x10 too in the future. Anyways, great work man!
Thank you! That’s a great bike and a 2x10 would be a great fit for it.
@@CowboyTomi Thanks! Will look into available drivetrain options soon.
@@hiulaws I'm all in on 2x. 24% harder high gear and 13% easier low gear on my 2x9 cross bike than my 10 years newer 1x11 cross bike, even with a 12% smaller granny cog. I definitely let complacency convince me that 1x was a better setup and didn't realize how much I was sacrificing with that setup until I went back to the 2x.
@@brianvannostrand7762 Thanks for the insight!
Neat build as always mate!
Thank you!!
saw you in the bike list vid! sick build
Thank you!!
chef's kisses
Thank you!
Great build & great video as ever Tomi. Do you have more videos coming up?
I still have a set of Spinergy Rev-X wheels. They are so old, the rear is a freewheel type. You just have to check the joint between the "spokes" and the rim for cracks.
I do not believe that they are legal for racing anymore. Sachs and Shimano 7 speed freewheels indexed perfectly with Campy 8 speed Ergo shifters (you just had to lock out the last shift)
PS. You can't go wrong with an old school, Flite saddle.
Nice! Thank you! Thankfully the rim seams were still good and apparently this wheel set was donated to Bike Works Seattle by the founder of ControlTech Components!
Not legal for a reason. One spoke breaks and they instantly collapse into extremely sharp spinning daggers. No point in checking them. They can show no signs of wear and still fall apart and tear you and nearby riders to shreds.
Hello, Tomi. You even shared how to make frame bag and da I am still curious your sticker videos and setup. I am still waiting for this in the upcoming videos.
Can you make videos of how to cut and crop own stickers and your setup also? Please! If possible and also If you had a time!
Hey! that sounds like something I can definitely show to folks in a seperate video.

hi sir, did u fit an oversize fork to standard frame? and what headset was used?
The fork was a standard carbon fork that wasn’t oversized. the headset is a very old mtb headset that the frame originally came with.
Do you have any advice on covering paint chips? I restored a 1998 Gary FIsher Big Sur from a thrift store. they were throwing it away, so I offered 5 bucks and got it 😄.The only thing I cannot do is fix is the paint. It is peeling a lot. Do you think it would be better to cover it up with some sort of adhesive sticker, or should I just try to repaint it?
Yeah, if It doesn't have any rust, I'd just use a frame wax spray by the spray.bike company and apply a coat or 2. As for re-painting, it would just turn into a longer project, but it's always worth stripping everything down because the parts could possibly be checked too.
let it flake! gives it street cred
There was never a recall of any Spinergy wheel model. I have yet to see a failure rate report. Material failures happen to every bike component resulting in crashes.
I've always loved the purposeful look of Spinergy 4-spokes and always wanted a set. How do they ride? Looks like a harsh ride? I didn't realise the UCI had sanctioned these wheels, especially for cyclo-x, but then i'm not up to speed at all with the current rules. The bike kind of reminds me of the Marin Titanium with the pink forks. Regards.
Thanks! They are fast wheels and great during the cross race I participated in, however not ideal since they are old and dangerous to ride depending on the condition. The hubs are not the best, but still very smooth ride.
most races at lower cat levels are not UCI and don’t really care what bike you ride, as long as it’s not an e bike, and single speed for the single speed race
How's the stopping power on those brakes?🚴
They're good! and did great during the cross race even tho it was a little muddy!
Is that gearing a bit heavy for CX? Not trying to sound like a wimp, but I'm new to CX from road/MTB and 50T off-road sounds rough.
Great question, the big ring is definitely too heavy. I wanted the 2x drivetrain so that I can also do some road cycling with this bike. I pretty much stayed in the small ring during the whole race.
@@CowboyTomi I've been struggling with my CX to "gravel" bike build to find a good gear range. I picked up a 39/26 Truvativ X9 for a good deal, but I tripped myself up with the BB standards. It's PF30 and my BSA to BB30 adapter BB is just too wide for the spindle. Back to square 1. Might have to stick with the square taper, or something Shimano.
Nice build but I don‘t dig the pink.
Thanks! That’s okay.
Everything is ok, but you have desecrated the fork ;)
I sure did!
bike built by fwends 💓
always make sure to only show 2 rushed shots of the entire bike, and each of those snippets of shaky footage should never exceed 5 seconds. it's an unwritten rule of bike build videos for some reason
😂😂😂
check out his instagram there's more pics!

Never ever run spinergy wheels On a CX bike, if you do , dont race it.
Whoops, too late for that. I just finished two cx races with them couple weeks ago, haha! I have another wheelset for this bike just in case something goes wrong.
counterpoint: run what you brung
I have a feeling he is gonna crash very badly if one of those wheels goes bad at the wrong place wrong time. Just be careful even if u got spare parts u dont have a spare YOU i did cx races and see crashes related to two bikers clashing badly and the wheels got one of the dudes arms and slashed it all while they was falling. So think about that pls
@@CowboyTomi point is, those spinning blades of carbon that are very stiff and sharp, do not belong in a cx race with arms and fingers etc. they just dont. most organizers that know the difference wouldn't allow them.
@@heywasuphelo3425 Very true, I’ll most likely be doing road riding with them only from this point on. I don’t plan on using them as my cx wheelset in the future.
Why change the fork? Why the carbon blade wheels and inferior colored tires?
Cool frame though.
I did like the old fork, but wanted something lighter and that goes for the wheels also, plus they're Spinergy's! It did great in the cyclocross races! and I wanted more color in the build, so I got offered these limited color gravel kings.
I agree re the forks. Steel fork makes for 80% of that "steel bike feel". There's nothing inferior about the colour edition gravelkings though, they ride exactly like the black rubber ones.
@@martinhartmann3121 they said in an interview that the colored ones grip worse and they only make them to appeal to those that don't care for performance
@stuvade makaroner probably I don't ride at the limit of these tyres then. Haven't noticed a difference and my stats haven't either :)
Be careful with those Spinergy wheels. Those "spokes" are sharp. I cut my finger a couple of times on them. They might just be the best-looking wheelset ever, but that's the only good thing I can say about them. Not trying to be a jerk - just passing along my own experience. They are fragile, subpar build quality, poor bearing life, flexy, etc.
Thanks for the heads up! Definitely gonna monitor them as I keep riding them.
Funny I heard the same thing from a friend who had a bad experience I was gonna pick some up fairly cheap on Facebook market.
May just try the ones from Ican, super nice, affordable and lets say adequate quality (cheaper and better than Spinergy actually 😅)
Yeah, they are notorious for cracking or literally exploding while riding. Nevertheless awesome build.
@@filipdzi Thank you! Yes, I'll be watching them closely on every ride!
Best place for spinergys is in the trash. They give no indication of wear or fatigue. If one spoke breaks there are only three points of contact. They then instantly collapse and become shards of spinning daggers. Extremely dangerous to you and other riders. Destroy them first so no one finds and uses them and get them in the trash today !
