Choosing New Bike Parts & Components | Cheap Bike To Fixie Ep. 2

Which parts would you have chosen? Let us know in the comments below 🔧

Wonderful to have on hand for little ones.

Can anyone send me a link to the headset used In this video

why dont you post a list of compomets you have bought? and the total spent?

Indonesia BB there lol

where can i find the wheelset? or what is it called?

Where did you get the wheels? Please advise

Front brake for freestyle hub or to give ur legs a break on fixed rear brakes r useless

FOOT RETENTION

could I get a list of budget friendly flip flop rear wheels please?

I wonder how a person can be so considerate about the parts he buys but still end up with such an ugly build at the end

do you have any website links to purchase the parts?

Superb video, it helps me a lot to transform my bike, however one question can you give more details about the flat bar, which model brand?

What size of rim ?

As the owner of Shimano® aehy can tell you most if not any bicycle shop will know a Shimano UN55 weighs twice as much as a UN77 and only costs %40 more most of the "HG" aka 7-8spd is XT or 600 group set durable because of improvements
in metallurgy for example 1992 Shimano "DX" cranks (175mm if your height is 182cm) were "XT" in 1994 with XTR being the most durable especially in Melbourne where trams use sand on their brakes in winter getting into YOUR chain, if you want components that will last a commuter rider 20yrs go for top of the line.

Could you let me have details of the wheels you used in this build please. Thanks

How much would those components cost now?

Hi could you make a parts list but no for a fixie for a regular speed bicycle i have the same bike and i want to restore

Aye...BB made in Indonesia 😁is it Shimano?

This isn't cheap

I opted for bullhorns for my Fixie. They make it a little bit easier to go uphill. Plus they give the bike an “aggressive look” that I like.

Would have been great to put the prices of every components and where to get them (for newbie like me)

Would love to see another budget bike build

Anyone know what the wheels are? Couldn't find anything when I looked for a Ride wheelset

'All silver, because you just need to have that. None of this modern black stuff on there' Cranks, brakes and seatpost are all black. I love GCN but this video is way below there standard. They didn't even get 50 percent out of that nice peugeot frame. Scan the scene first guys before you rush into something...

the velodrome anecdote was so relatable.

Origin 8 do from I heard an alright headset, and Kalloy Uno sell all the crazy old standard seatposts and bars/stems (i managed to get a black finish for a 1980s Raleigh for around 10 pound via SantaFixie to save me using the 25.4mm+ botch shim the previous owner used)

Thorn sell a 1/8 chainring for 110bcd chainsets (mainly road bike chainset bcd and quite a few non compact sugino cranks from the 80s)

Really digging the recent series of bike builds.

what is the size of the new wheels? vintage bikes had 27" wheels and not 700c . the new wheels will ton be easy to fit because the larger diameter will make the wheels to touch the downtube.

Does that bottom bracket fit? You have a British thread BB (I have the same one), but that's a French frame, and I thought they used a different threading, at least on older frames like that?

Hello ! Do you (or anyone in the comments) have anymore information on the wheels ! In desperate need of some for my Peugeot Fixie conversion !

Hi, a great series so far, however it would be really nice to list the gear in the caption 😉

hahaha my fixie is cheap because it have no brakes

Could we get a part list with pricing? Hearing about the various parts is great, but being able to look them up would be even better.

Satisfied my cravings

a little disappointed - was hoping for a proper conversion thing, not just grab a cheap bike for the frame then buy all new components and assemble like lego. unfortunate.

have anybody link to this hubs

Consensus confirmed...

Lock-in grips

Drinking game: whenever Jon says "tradition"...hit it.

Who needs brakes

FOOT RETENTION

WE WANT 144 BCD

What brand/model are those rims??

Has anyone priced out the parts listed?

Now that I've gotten used to Jon wearing glasses, he looks weird without them haha

Nice video. Perhaps you could give a hint for where to find those wheels. I’m building up an old Koga Miyata frame and wanted some classic looking wheels like these but it’s hard to find - especially at a reasonable price. Ryde’s website only seems to sell the rims and building wheels from scratch quickly gets expensive (and a Google search doesn’t really give any useful results). Cheers.
