I hope you’ve reached out to Paul and told him what you’ve done. He’s a pioneer and master craftsman, a class act and great person who’s currently going through some real challenges with his life. You’ve got a real treasure and it’s nice that you’ve made it shine again on the trail where it belongs. 🙂
Seconding this! And I'll add that the odds are good that Paul has some photos of that bike's early life, or at least bikes of the same model.
Hit him up he has a channel here. You can watch the master at work.
Part of me is hoping he’ll notice the video. I would love to collaborate with him. I’m a super fan of his work and his TH-cam channel. 🙌
@@oldshovel I'll let him know, he's a good friend of mine!
Paul Brodie is such an amazing person. And he is still making videos. Awesome bike!
That is true! The restoration of this bike is great and it’s nice to bring old bikes to new life. The scenery on the ride is awesome! Keep on going and thanks for this video 👍😘
Paul is awesome. I wish he was my next door neighbor.
The beauty in the simplicity of your rebuild is so fantastic, thanks for sharing, Rob!
Not to detract from the build, because that’s what we’re here for…but the ASMR aspect of your videos is just as appealing to me personally…HOWEVER, the music after the build is always SO ON POINT, and I thought worth mentioning. Please keep finding bikes with life left in them and sharing your perspective on how they should continue to live. Thank you.
I sure appreciate that you included the baby/robin blue fork for this build, paid some homage to Mr. Brodie and a legendary colour in his line up ❤
Old shovel you inspire me to do old bikes over like you do thanks for the encouragement
I don't recall ever seeing you mention where you live, but it must be pretty awesome to be able to ride out to a trail with scenery like that!
I love the early mountain bikes. I've never had anything high end like that, or a Ritchey, but I do have an 84 Mongoose ATB that I hit the trails with, and I also have a white 90's Mongoose Switchback, and a hot pink GT Tequesta waiting for there chance to be restored... Love your videos... I actually just learned a trick to v-brakes from watching this one that I hadn't caught before... Backing the barrel adjusters all the way out when connecting the cable... Then turning it back in. I'll be doing that on my next project. Thanks!
I think somewhere in the Salt Lake City area judging by a previous video
I did live in Bountiful but recently moved to Pleasant View. The riding here is on a trail through my new neighborhood.
Every bike has a story. Thanks for this chapter in the story.
I love your videos. They bring me peace and I learn a lot about bikes. You make me want to try to rejuvenate my old ladies! Thank you
Great build! great project bike!
Love all the parts in the build except that shifter. That XT derailleur and Crank looked great together.
That's a keeper.
A Brodie lightweight frame is one of the unicorns i chase.
I hear you.
@@oldshovel Yours is my size. And i don´t care for dings.😇😇
I like the way you used mostly parts. I love where you were riding it. I live in south Alabama. It flat here. I live in the wrong place. Also I love your work. Thanks
"The Purple People Eater" is a song that was written and performed by Sheb Wooley, which reached No. 1 in the Billboard pop charts in 1958 in the US and Canada. I guess he really liked that song.
I have an early 2000s steel frame Brodie that languished in storage for years as it just wasn't as "fun" or capable as my newer bikes. Out of curiosity I converted it to a single speed setup last year and its an absolute blast to ride once more! Looks like someone else may have had the same idea.
Beautiful build! I love all that simplicity!
What a gem❤ and NO rust🤗
Gen. 1 XT V brakes and Suntour thumbshifters still rock🚀🚀🚀
Beautiful build, Rob! And you've got some new scenery and some cool trails to explore. Good for you! Thanks
Great color!
Such a beautiful place to ride. Those mountains 😮
Always a good sign when the seat post just drops like that during disassembly.
Truth!
So happy to see these old dream bikes of my riding youth(prime) get a second life. Makes me smile and feel sad at the same time.
9.8 kg is insanely light for a steel MTB.
Your method of setting up V-brakes is geniusly easy.
Love the build and love the beautiful place you rode awesome scenery
Beautiful job on the build man!!! Paul Brodie is still kicking on his youtube channel and you can learn how to make a frame like that among many other things.
I love Paul’s channel. One of my favorite.
what a beautfiul location to ride a bike and live - you are blessed 🙂
Brodie is oldie, but goldie! ;) Beautiful build and video, I have only two observations. It seems to me that the headset bowls could be put in reverse, then the Chris King lettering wouldn't be upside down (1). And then, next time for us non US folks, if you could switch the scale to kilograms as well just for a moment when weighing so we don't have to recalculate (2). Thanks a lot and happy biking. Cheers from Czechia! :)
@cony Yes, correct. I also second measurements should be displayed as well in kilograms.
Super impressive. My 90s Schauff hurricane xt was 10.5kg in stock form with full xt, indy xc and crossmax ceramic wheelset. So thus being even lighter by 600grams is mighty impressive.
Your videos never get old. Keep it up!
I love this build ! I only have 2 Brodies and only one is steel. amazing frames
Another awesome build! Thank you for sharing.
Chris King 7075 aluminum headsets🤘🤘. I'm still using one that I bought in 2011; it's Royal Navy blue 🤘🤘
One of my favourite videos! Well done. Class bike
It looks beautiful where you live!
Great job and perfect choice of tires...
This is the best build you’ve done.
Great video.
Another great video about another fantastic bike.
Lovely resto-mod with solid component's on an awsome steel frame.
And the Flight is the perfect saddle.🤩🤙
Just like he would have built it today?
Love this build, maybe my favorite yet. I got a Barracuda A2V frame from the Salt Lake Bike Collective that's waiting to get built in a very similar way. Even has a lil dent that will make me feel less bad when I dent it again.
AWESOME! 21.5 lbs with pedals
I had that same exact bike in all purple. It was a XT/XTR build with gold cup Rockshoxs. Loved that bike, I gave the frame to one of my buddies after using it a few years. Wonder if he still has it.
Stunning build. Love the tires.
You can always tell a Canadian by the way he sports a plaid shirt 🇨🇦
That's a sweet bike! It's ironic for me that you scored this, I have been vegging on his vides lately. He's a class act, just like you!
Flite saddle is still my favorite...
Just rebuilt my 1999 Kona Explosif love the 90s steely mtbs
Súper-Cool Green-Walls! 💚
Great build & video. The upside down headset cups are wrecking me though!
😁😜
'Flying purple people eater' was a song from the 70's I remember hearing it on Dr. Demento all the time. guess he named it 'II' because the song was the first one.
Love it and I want it
That's a keeper 😊❤
Great job. 👍
Incredible less than 22 lb, muy bonita!!!
Nice that you restored a Brodie!
Was there a reason you reversed the headset cups?
Thanks for the build. @PaulBrodie has a great TH-cam channel himself where he shares bike construction knowledge.
Oooh... That's pretty!
The purple people eater came from a movie that came out in 1988! Starring Neil Patrick Harris, and Ned Beatty! And of course you know who Bodie!
Fascinant .... chaque fois ... merci
That frame is in great condition for its age
Parabéns pelo belo trabalho! 🇧🇷
Since it's for racing maybe try some latex or TPU tubes.
My nephew just brought home a 90's CCM (crap) in a similar style that actually has a very nice aluminum frame with replaceable deraullier hanger and really clean welds. I am going to show him this, and your channel in general, and see if he shows any interest in building it up. He likes my bike but I dont think he has the confidence yet to even think of building his own and I would like to get him started. Just starting with some new handlebars/grips/pedals/chain/sealed bearing BB and some new cables...stuff that looks cool, though mostly, so that he stays interested. Eventually though, I would like him to be doing things like rebuild the fork, bearing pack a headset or wheel, etc. I think the frame he has could easily be built to around 22lbs...I had a chromoly rigid 26", a cheap bike, and it weighed around 22lbs stock. My current bike, stock, a 2010 Trek 3700, weighs around 27lb or so (just guessing, have never weighed it). If I removed replaced the 3x crank with a 1x, got some lighter wheels, and replaced my steel handlebars with aluminum, it might be down to 25lbs. Also...those are the tires I have planned on for ages...I am in the middle of building an ebike, and those are probably the coolest looking tires I have found that dont cost more than my bike.
Don't know why it's called a purple people eater, but it should be fitted with one horn and not a bell :)
Doesn't seem to be much info online about this bike? I know of the Climbmax and Bromax frames by Paul Brodie but never seen or heard of this before. Maybe you could reach out to him and even do a video with him talking about this bike? Great build by the way, especially love the original 98 SID fork 😎
Hello, Ols Shovel, I've been watching your videos for aquieta some time. Thank you, I really enjoy. I have to tell you I don't remember see you making a mistake, but in this one.... I might be wrong, but it looks you mounted the headset upside-down, as I type this, I didn't watch the whole video yet... Curious to see what's coming.
I wonder which are your most popular builds?
Awesome bike.great music could that be JB Boone? Are you in US ?
Paul Brody was on TH-cam 2 years ago. I don't know if he still is. I'll check.
Yep. He still is doing videos. Legendary
I Hope to find a Brodie Expresso.
Kinda torn on this one. I'm not a fan of 1x drivetrains on old bikes - but I very much like the 10spd thumbshifter. I also don't like V-brakes on frames that have so much effort put into cantilever cable routing - but using the front derailleur cable housing stop for the rear V-brake is inspired.
I hope you checked out the serial number on the stolen bike database over here in Canada.
Paul also has pretty much every frame # recorded in his master files as to build date etc.
Hi my friend, what is the name of cleaner foam that you put It on the bike. Thanks
I think you put the top of the King headset on the bottom and vise versa - now it reads upside down on both. Other than that, nice build!
Was going to say the same. It works, but my pedantic ocd wonders why you'd install with words upside down. To each their own though.
Way cool. Amazing find.. Hooded dropouts....awesome. Love the original Rolf wheels! My favorite wheels ever.
Vintage class ripper.
I'd ride that to Skinwalker Ranch with a tent and back..
Please don't stop making videos and supporting 501C3 non profits.
Inspiration... passion. Too cool
Send that bike to Sam Pilgrim for proper testing.. jk .
Love to see a Brew racing frame restored like this.
How did you get those tires in such great condition? Geax / Wild Gripper colour with no dry rot...Thanks for sharing.
We wish you would use V- brake noodle boots and cable doughnuts.. maybe use some old road bike bar tape on the chain stay. An old Soma B Side with 650b rim brake wheels...Poor people can have a reason to be bike snobs again 😅
Lol Sam would destroy it 😂
Para cuándo una reconstrucción desde cero,hace bastante que no haces una!👍,saludos desde San Juan Argentina
What kind / brand tires are those (with the blue wall) ? Thanks.
What’s the spec of the thumbshifters?
By '94 pretty sure he had other welders, some guy named Chris came over from Rocky?
Possibly but one can dream. 😁
@@oldshovel Chris Cooney or Mike Truelove most likely.. :)
I think Purple People Eater was a nickname for his Johnson
The Purple People Eater: Perhaps in tribute the late 50s hit song, performed by Sheb Wooley?
(....."one-eyed, one-horned, flying, purple people eater..../")
I think 'flying purple people eater' is a song, isn't it?
Great bike .the term purple people eater was used on kawasaki triple motorcycles due to their wobbly handling under power and cornering as they were built forstraight lines lol . As well as the term widow maker.
keep the dents and blemishes I always say if a loved one has a mole or a birthmark would you get them removed ? 😊
Loving the greenwall tyres
Hello! Does Brodie comes in Aluminum frame? I just bought one without any label on the frame but it looks similar to this bike (just different materials).
There is a song by Sheb Wooley named "The Purple People Eater" and the lyrics talk about a one eyed, one horned, flying purple people eater. Maybe the name has something to do with that song? Paul is on youtube, you should ask him!
Дякую за роботу
Приємно дивитись
Люблю велосипеди
You’re Canadian?
Yep but now living in the US
Why don't you drill out the cable housing guides so you can use a continuous cable housing? Thanks.
Is a 26 or 28 wheell size??
Ang ganda ng bike
I have a Trek 6000 from 1999 should I RestoMod it
Eating people up on a bike means catching up to them and passing them.

Why did you put the headset cups in upside down? That's made me feel quite ill.
😁🙌.

I guess he named it after the old song...
@paulbrodie - nice bike Mr Brodie. What was origin of its name? Flying Purple People Eater II? 😅 Or let it remain a secret.🤫
hate that you talk about brodie like he's no longer with us. he's alive and well, ya know. putting out youtube content just as often, if not more often, than you do
I’m sorry it came across that way to you, that was not my intention. I am a huge fan of Paul and his work and content, I love his way of teaching and his easy going attitude. He is a legend. I’m sorry it offended you so much.
@@oldshovel i'm not offended, sorry my comment came across that way to you, that was not my intention. just a head scratcher that you're referring to him in the past tense when he's still building and repairing bikes to this day.
I hope he continues to also.
