  • Filmed by geebeebee media over a weekend in 2013 in the BTR Shed, 'From The Ground Up' is an introduction to BTR, and why and how we build bikes.
    Music: Soul Tide by cinephonix.com

    This is the very first video BTR released demonstrating the frame building methods used in "The Shed". We talk about the passions that drive us to build frames and the lengths we go to to ensure our bikes are the best they possibly can be.
    The frame built in the video is a Ripper DH- our kids downhill hardtail frame: www.btr-fabrications.com/product/ripperdh/

    Your company inspires me when im doing anything to do with bikes. I know I would never be able to get one but the fact that you've stayed as a 2 man company to this day is amazing. I hope one day your bikes are on the podiums of all races because you put the most effort into your what you do.

    I love what you guys do. And believe it or not I finished high school last year and now i’m preparing for university. I too always wanted to build my own frame. You are a perfect example for me. I hope i can do that just like you guys did.

      A bike frame looks so simple. It should be just so easy to knock one together. I also under estimated the sheer amount of work that went into one.

      @BTR-Fabrications  Před 8 měsíci

      Thanks mate. Not much point cutting the tip off the road on steel unless you are wire brushing the weld each time you stop as well...

    Awesome video. Makes me want to build a frame from scratch!!!
    I love Hardtails, I really want a "Yeti ARC-ish" frame for me and I'm seriously thinking about trying to make it happen with my own hands. What would you say is the easyest and most difficult material? Like ranking aluminum vs steel vs titanium
