DREAM BUILD MTB in the Idaho Mountains - 2023 TRANSITION PATROL
I’ve never done a 100% custom bike build from the frame up, so I wanted to do something really fun to celebrate it. Are you going to build a bike in the backcountry? Probably not. But the whole setup from RIGd Supply has been a game-changer for me and part of celebrating this build is showing off what it can do. Huge thank you to the crew at RIGd for supporting my vision and making this project possible. Sit back, relax, and take in this 2023 Transition Patrol build and first ride atop a mountain peak deep in the Owyhee Region of Idaho.

As always, thank you for watching. And until I see you in the next video,
EXPLORE. RIDE. GET OUTSIDE.
P.S. My dad was the one behind the camera for most of this video and with virtually no experience, he crushed it. I’m so grateful for his help and it was so cool that we got to share this experience.

I've built up a lot of bikes over the years but never in a place like this. Well done.

That’s awesome. Thanks, Greg! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Most entertaining chillest build video I’ve seen. Nice bike. The red on the Patrol and 4Runner pop so good. Gray zeb goes well with it all. I love my mtb and my Ridgeline that gets me to ride!

That was actually so sick. What a cool concept.
Love your passion for 4Runner's and mountain biking. I have a 2021 Lunar Rock Pro 4Runner and a 2020 Yeti SB130 mountain bike. We have some great mountain biking here in MD, but no exploring / overlanding options. I did a 20 day trip out to Grand Junction and Moab from MD hitting trails along the way last Fall and it was the most liberating experience I have ever had. I slept inside the 4R for 17 nights and was perfectly comfortable. Planning to hit Boise and Bend, plus many other trails this Fall. Great content - keep up the good work! Thanks!

Thank you, James! I appreciate it. That’s awesome! That setup is rad and Moab is a special place. What an awesome trip. I’ll make it out to the east coast one day for some riding. Seems like there’s some good trails out there. Stoked that you’re coming out this way for a trip. I know the Bend trails quite well too. You’re gonna have an awesome time.
Very cool to build a bike on the trail, hoping you have all the tools and bolts

@@nickmcdvtt My Rhino colored Yeti SB130 matches my Lunar Rock 4R. Not originally intentional - I cracked the original bike frame after two years which was Storm colored (a flat blue) and Yeti no longer had that color. So I had replace it with Rhino which perfectly matches Lunar Rock. I love seeing mountain bikes on the back of 4R's!

Well, that worked out nicely! That’s awesome! I wasn’t originally planning on making this bike match, but then Transition came out with red and then I zoned in on the grey Zeb... It just sort of came together 🙂
Another epic vid combining multiple things, that why I like your channel. BTW, have you found any shops in your area that are good for offroaders that you can recommend? My sister in Mt Home has had issue with local shops for her Tacoma not understanding the different needs of overlanders vs folks that just drive on highways. Case in point, putting those heavy plastic zip tie like clamps on cv boots vs metal clamps.

Thank you! I appreciate it. This was such a fun project. The best offroad shop in Boise that I’ve found is Taco Vinyl Offroad, especially for Toyotas. Brandon is a great dude and has helped me with several things, including removing and re-installing my front differential to fix a botched re-gear.

Ah, gotcha. I installed the OneUp EDC tool in my steer tube, which uses a threaded top cap instead of a star nut. OneUp has a thread tap tool specifically for that system that cuts the threads for that top cap. All of the build details, parts, etc. for this bike are in the description if you are curious about the setup. Thank you for watching!
