NJS bikes are amongst my favorite bikes ever produced: simple, elegant, but at the same time, they’re hand made for the express purpose of high stakes gambling in Japan: pretty badass.
In this MEGA NJS bike check, we’ll take a closer look at 4 beautiful NJS builds that will be sure to make you consider if you can justify having yet another bike. Today, we have an Iribe, Nagasawa, Bridgestone, and even a 3Rensho.

That 3Rensho is hands down one of the most beautiful bikes I've ever laid my eyes on. Thanks for sharing these superb builds with us Zach.
3Rensho (pronounced sahn-ren-show)
That 3Rensho is a work of art. Be still my heart! If I were going to ride one regularly though, like you I'd pick the Bridgestone.
That black Nagasawa is to die for.
I think I died and went to heaven after gazing upon the 3Rensho.
My fave is the 3Rensho because it has my beloved lugs and off the chart fixie points chrome plating. If you're going lugged; they should be shown off with contrasting paint, or better yet chromed! That green/gold paint is a beautiful color. I would have gone with polished cranks, personally. I see 3Rensho frames are about $1,500- $2000 in the USA, so they are not too much - no banks need to be robbed. Next fave is the Bridgestone with the nice purple metalflake! I would have blinged it out with all chrome components. Oh yeah, polished flat bars all around. As "Classic Motorcycle" magazine says, "Don't hide 'em. Ride 'em."
That 3 Rensho is truly mind boggling!
straps on straps off brilliant
Pure bike prawn. Polished aluminum components are just impressive. Tough to pick a favourite, but that 3Rensho ... Oh my.
that pink iribe frameset is beautiful
"enough lights to make stevie wonder put on a second pair of sunglasses"
that shit got me good
Duuuuude..... these bikes....wow....
Bridgestone is my fave. Purple. Practical. Understated.
Also, appreciate the ad format- mention it early on, but save the plug for the end. Feels polite.
My favorite?... ALL OF THEM!!!!!!
"ZOMBIE LIKE PEDESTRIANS " lol. Sums it up
Mike Garcia uhh not rlly if u were to ride in Singapore u rlly have to shout at the pedestrians as they are constantly on their phones
Not sure how its like elsewhere but in Singapore their heads are never not buried into their phones.
Wreckless Reckless Productions how sia LOL
That 3rensho is bonkers. Absolutely bonkers.
i can't be the only one that gets a kick out of hearing that voice describe steel and rubber. somehow it never gets old.
Bridgestone hands down. The purple.....
To be honest there were parts of all three builds I loved, like. The crankset, and rims of the first build. The tires and handlebars of the second build, and the frame of the third build.
The 3Rensho's paint is nuts... it really reminds me of the Legnano green.
Fun fact i actually have a Legnano Olimpiade frame from the 70s that was my grandfather's (beautiful lugs and fork,complete with internal routing for rear brake and shift and custom welded frame pump holder 'winglets' on the seat tube. Never seen anything like that up until this). I rebuilt it this year, but i painted it a beautiful Lime-Acidic green, with bright yellow notes under light, but keeping the deepest hue under the shade. I can't stop marvelling it, but it was meant to be functional too, and with everything but the original NISI rims replaced, it rides like heaven!
1st build was my favourite.
Favorite channel on CZcams . You seem like a really genuine dude. Good luck to you and keep up the good shit.
Wow I really love the 3rensho, all the bikes were nice but the 3rensho, 😁😁😁
Nice work brother!!!!! Definitely love the Bridgestone for sure!! Cheers from Argentina.
that bridgestone though
That Iribe was hoooot
that 3Rensho would be in a glass case in my living room... So damm pretty!
We spell 三連勝 not 三連章
勝 means winning
章 means chapter
Great video! I can see your energy and creativity shine through.
I could watch this all day but I have a final project for cs due tomorrow, so im gonna still watch this all day
i bought a used 09 paddywagon today because of your videos payed 200 € and found out the seatpost is stuck, still rides great, photos for fixiepoints will be send after i overhauled it.
Touching..drooling..don't think I need anything more from Zach's videos
3rensho’s super clean but there’s something about the Bridgestone that makes me want one so bad 😻
Great Works!
It's been years since I read it, but I'm pretty certain that the inspiration for the name 3Rensho is "3 consecutive victories is the sign of a true champion".
You are great Zach. Best vlog on CZcams 👍
I really enjoy your videos Zack. God bless you.
The track bike is currently out of commission, missing riding it while I wait on warranty parts but this video helped scratch the itch.
I personally like the nagasawa because i like thw simple classy look of it.
Excelente video Zach, me gustaría ver mas de ti riding the street, kind of like a vlog, at least one per month, just saying, cheers!!!
That 3Rensho is art..
The 3Rensho is the most beautiful bike I've ever seen. As I was watching the video, I began to wonder if I had one, would I ride it or just put it in a case in the living room with a light shinning on, like in a museum. Riding it in the town I live, when I park, I would have to hire an armed guard to watch over it. :(
the 3rensho ROCKS OVER ALL but l want the bridgestone in purple metallic to make a JOKER THEMED BIKE
For your next Q&A can you explain why NJS builds are so good.
For practical reasons, unless you're trying to race in Japan, they aren't. NJS parts are built for professional use so they tend to be high-quality, but you can find cheaper and better non-NJS parts. It's more about aesthetics and the story behind your bike.
Hard to outshine any Nagasawa but GODDAMN! that 3Rensho is a goddess.
Bridgestone
The 2nd was the one I'd want to ride the most. The 4th was my favorite, but it looks too good to ride.
I finally got myself an njs frame in pristine condition with no dents. A makino I built up. Once it’s complete I’ll post a bike check video
Khai’s iribe is so fucking nice
Zac is back.. Great content bro!
These bikes OOOOZE!!! 😛😛
IRIBE is pronounced (E * Le * Beh). Trust me I'm Jap🇯🇵
@@khaitee3161 TIL that japanese pronounce R as L on purpose
damn i think its super cool that the most expensive bike had the cheapeast rims. i think that shows that they really ride it
Bridgestone eyecandy 😍
Baller whips ! 🚲☺️❤️💢💢💢
sweet lord, Zach
fix your Iso settings. it feels like I'm continuously getting out of a pitch black room and getting blinded by the sun
The Nagasaw made my list
1 hour no dislikes. You're on a roll
Toriano Jones 5 hours 1 dislike
So you have a genuine NJS bike with undrilled brake attachment points, and then you put riser bars on it!
KHAI'S BIKE UWUWU
UwU
3Rensho all the way
Bit disappointed that none of these bikes are really NJS builds. Like lots of others, that 3Rensho is my favourite.
same here !
Sugino Aero is also for road.
people are still obsessing on NJS? I thought that ended in like 2007. fuck man, we were going nuts for sheriff stars and chub hubs back then and those were already old news. I do have a lot of nostalgia for my Ohtaki though. nice set of dura-ace hubs on some practical miche rims. can't remember the crank set, but I had a lot of fun on that bike.
you've never heard of sapim? they make spokes. rims look like some standard deep v style thing.
OMG - super vid! 1st or last - I would trade my bike for the 3rensho in a heartbeat; seriously consider trading my bike for the Iribe. Would proudly ride the hell out of the Nagasawa and Bridgestone, but wouldn't trade for the current whip.
Sparkle pink & holographic decals - may not sleep for days.
Glad you like my Iribe! Was pretty worried about what the traditionalists would say about my choice in parts, but no regrets because boy does it ride and look like a dream
5:37 best Comment ever lmfao
Have you built up an NJS ZG?
what bridgestone is that??
Will an NJS frame accommodate 28c tires?
How much would the 3Rensho cost to build / buy...? I'm just curious!
Holy shit. That 3 rensho is one of those bicycles I’d be too afraid to ride just because of bicycle theft.
Also some njs nerd would probably give me shit for tossing out those drop bars. I just don’t like drops ok? I’m sorry. I know. I’ll go away now
Ascent da best!
While you're in traveling, it would be so cool if you featured women fixed gear riders episode to hear about their experience and favorite bikes/parts etc.
How do you feel about riding with no hands?
“Stevie Wonder would need a second pair of sunglasses “ Brutally awesome description! Your english language skills are getting better as you do more videos. Next up stand up comic on a fixie! 😂
'San' Rensho...
I need to know how to clean my bike like theirs cuz shit they're shiny
Polisher
Nice bikes
Not beausage... it reflects wabi-sabi.
wallet wont fit the pink one, damn, hotness
of course there was a purple bike up there
Woooo singapore
For an emergency Fix Gear mod that made me think of you , check out Iohan Gueorguiev .
Hey zach! You here in sg?!
Those bikes were built by kick-ass bike builders at Kuromori Bike Co. in Singapore.
kuromoribikeco.com/
This is probably a noob question, but I'm serious. What qualifies a build as NJS? Is an NJS frame with nothing but AliExpress components still NJS? Do I need to be able to take it to a Keirin track and not be disqualified? What specifically?
@Jarda P Right, but none of the bikes in this video were 100% NJS, and most could not be ridden in a Keirin race. Does an NJS frame make the entire bike qualify as an "NJS build?" What if I have one Dura-Ace hub and nothing else NJS?
😍😍😍😍😍
Go on friday got peaple go mbs at friday
Looks like I am not saving $ for a Wabi anymore...
That's not how you pronounce Sugino... it's - Sue Gin noh - not - suegeenknow
The rims on the black bike are Sapim, you've never heard of Sapim???
