A lot of you guys wondering how I fit 1 1/8 steering tube to the frame. The frame has a 34mm headtube, and your eye has been tricked by the 1 1/8 thread type fork of this bike. Not all thread type fork has a standard size so NO HEADTUBE CONVERSION happened here. You may see the image link below with regards to the size of the old thread type fork I replaced. imgur.com/a/KIU0TyM

OMG,man, that's impressive! I love it!! ❤️ hope someday I can build A dream mountain bike for myself just like what you did.
What a labor of love! I'm really glad there are more people who share my love for the GT heritage. The Avalanche was my first bike and it was legendary!
Excellent restoration! I actually prefer watching these types of bike builds over all the new fancy stuff

I like how the bike straight up looks like a newly released bike with modern parts instead of restored bike with the upgrade. Top notch.
This is the fourth time i see this video, gosh, the details, the music, all the hard work to come back to life this beauty.
Nice work Coggie. Im very pleased to see another old bike back to life. Great to see that you press bearings in to head instead hmmering them ;-) I have some advice for you: 1. Use rust inhibitor before painting. 2. Try avoid to use filler (beter to play with primer only if rust marks are not too deep.More work but better results in long shot) 3. When welding with electrode try to place one continous bead instead of short tack welds. 4. Hide your stickers under clearcote that way they last longer.

@@genesisjulian9524 What about some kind of acid? A lot of people don't realize that acid will strip paint, rust, and grease. I use Muriatic Acid to clean old rusty automobile parts, but It's my understanding that Phosphoric Acid works well too. In Canada here, Muriatic acid is easy to come by because it's used to clean swimming pools. Just don't get it on your skin or breath the fumes.

Therefore, I found it great that you have given the rear derailleur again a chance. The bike has become really great. One question I have, what kind of handlebar is that? Manufacturer, model or designation? I have never seen this handlebar. lg Armin
