In the previous two episodes we showed you tubing selection, geometries, tube mitring and tacking the frame together.
In this video the frame is brazed together. It isn't as simple as that. There is a technique to ensure that the frame remains straight and in-line.
Simon adds his magic touch to the left rear dropout of the frame, arguable the most important part (in Simon's words).
Once the frame is brazed together all is not done, there are still some finishing touches to be done, bottom bracket needs to be threaded, the brazing needs to be rubbed down nice and smooth, the head tube has to be faced so that all bearings sit perfectly in place.
A massive thanks to The Bicycle Academy for their help with this video, check them out here: gcn.eu/TBA

What do you think of it? Would you like to build your own frame? Let us know 👇
Global Cycling Network how many years do i need to wait for the entire series 😂
Great series. After this process does Simon want to build more bikes??
nice but for the course and materials it is £1800 so not cost effective for some I expect
I liked the level of detail in the series so far. (If a jobs worth doing....), please do not skimp on the following episodes like full details of how to choose all the components and powder coating considerations/suggestions
Yes, if it was a composite frame. That would be my ultimate frame -- a custom composite frame made specifically for my weird old-guy geometry. I would want it to blend elements of aero and enduro with accommodation for disc brakes and larger tires.
Love this series! Had a close friend who was a frame builder and he passed away from cancer. Nice to see the ins and outs of what he did.
I could seriously watch this all day. How awesome to create something that will provide years of enjoyment and adventure, pain and suffering! GCN you've inspired me. Can't wait for the next installment. A big thumbs up!
thanks GCN for another perfect video. you guys are the best channel on youtube
thanks Joel!
no problem. you guys deserve it. Are you planning on doing a fan meet up / group ride. i would really love to meet you guys in person
Global Cycling Network yeah me too...i seriously want to meet you guys
Group ride, hell yeah! i live near Bath, would make a great video, GCN does group ride.
well i live quite a way away but would make it to bath for a group ride
When will 4 come? Thought it'd be only 3 parts, really looking forward to the result
Wouter Jeuring I'm equally confused. Want to see what happens next!!
Never fuck this channel

@@J.IR.I thanks :)
@@J.IR.I Nice one...
Hey Guy´s, where is Part 4? I´m looking forward for it! Just can´t wait! ;)
Hugs from Brazil!
I can't wait for part 4!
This is like the Custom Shop of Guitars and I love it!
Good Job GCN !
Living relatively close to where GCN are I get very excited when they mention a place I know, such as Frome for example.
absolutely love those franebuilding series
Always look forward to Monday on GCN good work .
It's really lovely to see this craftsmanship. Not sure who has the greatest dream-job here: Simon or the guys from the Bicycle Academy...
Really loved this feature- just brought a hand built bike and knowing that Justin Burls has worked like this on my bike makes me proud of my new bike
So what are the advantages/disadvantages of brazing vs TIG welding?
As Simon is saying that someone else will finish the bike and he"ll see it n two days, there is a poster in the background (see 5:42) saying "Finish what YOU start". The irony made me LOL.
I've been waiting for this one! Thanks!
Would love to see gmbn's version of how to build a hardtail.
This inspires me to get back into welding again!
GREAT CONTENT.
really cool series, hope to see more videos like this one
Superb series thank you !
Is it just me, or is this starting building series to become a trilogy in four or five parts? Keep 'em coming though, I'm enjoying this. Curious about the choice of components though.
Thank you! This series is really helping with my day to day bike maintenance!
They have a lovely little pantry for a bicycle studio.
@2:34 I can totally see Si doing the bracing there
the guy always says that's right i find that funny, good vid
Jake is legend!
The Link to the final part 4 of this series - Hopefully GCN will add it to the playlist and wrap up this fine series

Hi GCN, I have to a school assignment that is on our interests and I have picked aerodynamics on a bike. Can you please do a video on how to make a bike more aerodynamic with all the welding and things like that and hands on stuff on a already built bike. Thankyou GCN love your videos please reply Thankyou for your time!
Slo-Mo Filing - wow!
Excellent video , good insight into the process . where is number 4 and the Test on the road ?
YES!
Love this stuff!
I'd like to see more of the engineering side eg brazzing and maching threads
This should be your next giveaway. You might have to make one in every size though. I would love to build a bike but, I don't have a workshop right now.
This is fu**ing awesome!!!
I am actually designing my now frame now, get the CAD file half down, realize there are so many details only in the frame, still a long way to go:3
Part 4 is not online yet? Or is it?
You at GCN should make GCN branded bike frames :D
Really cool!!!!!
Pure beauty
love this series only problem is i already no what it will look like as we have already seen it in a different video.
I know right
High quality 👍🏻
Chapeau ! I just want to bild mine.
Simon, you want some welding goggles to go next to your science glasses, do you? :)
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cool! Great video..
Hi guys, i am a fan of youre shows and are very inspired about the frame building at TBA in frome. I am attending the course in oktober this year. Is it possible to send me some detials about simons frame? i am crazy about the featers of this frame and want to try to make it for my self, ofcourse with my own measurements! Hope to hear from you you, good luck with the show, greetings from the Netherlands! Nathan.
I've brazed copper pipe for underground water in plumbing. Are there any differences between brazing copper and brazing steel. Example: differences in flux, differences in the silver solder, how hot to have your torch
when is part 4 coming?
This starts to remind me of LinusTechTips. Part 1 of 23
Someone who knows!
I see I'm not the only one that came here from LinusTechTips...
keyboard cyclists assemble
scrapyard wars on gcn would be nice
Awesome video you guys are amazing keep it up
Nice
Nice bike Si
Cute performance Alhamdulillah
Part 4. Hole is cut in the frame and it is filled with molten lead, holes are filled and painted.
Part 5. Simon tries hill climb against a chain smoker.
Rlly nice vid
Look at Si going full Boonen and doing the dirty work with no gloves on
Great video!!! What is the brand of the flux and the brazing filler? thanks
Where is Lasty ?
Hi, what is the weight of the frame itself? With or without paint? Thanks, great job
I miss Lasty!! :( :(
Why braze and not weld? Is welding not stronger?
Is brazing good enough?
ahhhhhHH!! Where's part 4???
So when you go to one of their courses do they build the frame for you, and you give some token help and make the tea etc. Or do they teach you how to build a frame?
Jack Tweddle They do it for real. We as you can imagine didn't have a spare week to take one so they kindly helped us in a day. That takes some serious logistics!
Looks like Simon's scoring a new set of cycling sunglasses after his last fashion faux pas.
Thanks and there is me thinking that bracing must be much easier than welding. Think I will just leave it to the professionals then.
Where is the final vid?
th-cam.com/video/A4wAeTk4wAU/w-d-xo.html
I so want to build my own frame.
Wouldn’t doing a lugged steel frame be stronger?
whats the advantage of brazing over welding? thought welding would suit better as its stronger and less material
Clorox Jericho brazing doesn't get as hot as weld so maintains the temper of the tubes. A good fillet braze is strong due to the extra material, but as you observed will be heavier (slightly), but then if you wanted super lightweight you wouldn't choose steel would you.
Keith Bontrager says you are wrong btw
i dunno after a steel frame but I don't think id trust a brazed frame, mostly mental ill conceded but it would have to be welded for me
silly question maybe but where is the part 4 of the completed frame i.e panted or even built into a bike?
Why Brazing and not welding? are some steel frames actually welded? What about in aluminium?
www.lucasmilhaupt.com/en-US/brazingfundamentals/brazingvswelding/
Should build your bike for your 'hour record' yourselves too
Suggestion for a video: Instead of comparing carbon rim brakes to disk brakes, compare alu, carbon rim brakes to disk.
Shame we didn't get to see more of the whole process. I am interested in knowing what the tool is called that holds the bike frame for welding.
That is a jig :)
@@gcn I knew that much......
come on part 4.
1:48 LITERALLY A LIGHTSABER
si looks like Terminator with that glasses
Where is this shop/bicycle academy is? thanks for rply
Why don't they just weld it?
It's mentioned in one of the videos. Welding is melting the tubing, while Brazing joins them together without changing the size, shape or quality of the frame.
Those are peter sagan's glasses!!
video idea-how to trump in the peleton?
how do you keep your cycle safe
Part 4?
Next video should be: How to earn enough money for parts 😂😂
well that's why a handmade steel frame more expensive than the mass production one.
jake looks like undercover lloyd :)
qkc i
how to make bike frame fixture and jig ?
When's part 4 coming?
Hi Jason, the pro-bike video will be coming soon. cheers
final cost
5:28 Was that Tom ?!?!?!
I already made 3 aluminium frames for me 2 airo and one round tubes 🚵🚵🚵👍👍👍
Jake Rusby AKA Dan Lloyds brother. with more hair
Someone should tell Jake that rotary tools have been invented.
