Old 60$ NEGLECTED Dirt Jump Bike Gets A New Life (Restoration)
Ойын-сауық
I bought this neglected Dirt/Street bike for only 60$ and decided to give it a new life!
Bike was falling apart, rear wheel was totaled,tires were worn out,suspension fork was leaking air,seat was missing,cranks were falling apart(literally) and paint was horrible..
I used a lot of parts that i had lying around and some i bought to make this bike look like brand new..
Whole bike is painted,all parts are serviced,it has brand new chain,headset,tires and bottom bracket.
Total Costs:
Bike:60$
Parts(That I Bought):(50$):Headset,Chain,Rear Wheel,Cranks and Bottom Bracket.
Painting ended up costing me about 15$.
So in total that's about 125$ for a bike that looks and feels like a brand new bike !
Thanks For Watching, Hope you enjoyed!

Even for a bike of that condition, 60$ is a steal, especially with no structural damage to the frame. Great build- keep it up! 👍

Got 60 $ I got a Kona shred frame 💀
Oh man is that a Thömus Farmair??? When I was in the US Air Force, we weren’t allowed to drive cars while in training for my job so everyone rode bikes to get around base and when further along in training, to hop on a bus with and head into San Antonio. SS MTB’s or BMX bikes were the norm. In fact I don’t remember seeing a geared bike. Many of them were hand-me-downs or purchased ridiculously inexpensively from trainees in previous classes. This was my exact bike. I know it came back with someone from Germany. I was never quite sure of the year but it was the same red frame with black accents and logos that appear to be on your bike underneath the paint job you sanded off. Mine was also converted to SS prior to my having it. I passed it down to a lower classman when I graduated and I’ve never seen another one since. Great job, thanks for posting!!!

Wow i swear i seen this type of bike rolling around when i was younger good job! bringing any type of cool hard tail back to life is cool the frames are just bomb proof and can shred for generations.
I love to salvage neglected bikes. Finishing the job is such a feeling😌
It came out beautiful it gave me a good idea for a paint job as well thank you
wow, thats a good purchase, all it needed is a bit of work and parts

@@Nexxxx Okay then maybe im just swapping to many bike parts around... Since middle of last year i started building new bikes from used bikes and mostly new parts ordered online... It has become somewhat of an addiction and rn im building and keeping about 1 bike / month. I usually only spend about 300 Euros per bike and sell what left... Now I've got a ton of nice bikes and don't know where to put them nor do i want to sell any of them... I usually settle for 26" bikes because they're just cheaper to get and parts are also cheaper. Although 26" is a tiny bit too small for me it normally doesn't bother me all that much. (Im a 1.9m ~6'3 tall guy)

Why do you still have installed the brake disc?
@Nexxxx
2 жыл бұрын
My plan was to put a rear brake that i had laying around but it was leaking oil so i left disc on the bike for when i buy a new brake.
the oil that you added to the air chamber of the fork will drain into the negative chamber and the fork will not work correctly
@Nexxxx
2 жыл бұрын
If you read the service manual it says that it needs only 3ml of 15w oil in air chamber just to keep the air assembly work smoothly. So it should have oil in there and if seals are good it shouldn't leak oil in the negative chamber

For bikes like this with vertical dropouts you can use any 26" wheel that has 135x9mm axle. For other dirt bikes that have horizontal dropouts you need 135x10mm hub. Hope that answers your question.
