    I’ll be 44 this summer, I’m fixing up my 97 performer as I watch this…
    I live in the city RAD was filmed in, and GT or dyno can take criticism a few levels…but there’s no denying that those particular brands evoke feelings of nostalgia like nothing else.
    For that era, I’ve always loved the look of them. The decals, the finishes, the frames and bars…
    What a way to go out and enjoy a beer and a bike ride with my wife. Love the hobby, dug the video 🤙🏻

    Growing up in the 70's and 80's, my Dad didn't make much money and he himself was raised poor. All my bikes were county landfill finds we salvaged. Every trip to the dump was like a treasure hunt for me, but it taught me alot to appreciate what I had, take care of it, and learn bike maintenance. I always envied kids who had the latest and greatest Schwinn Crate bikes or early BMX. Regardless, I learned to make the best of our situation and build what I needed to ride like anyone else. My best find ever was an old rusted up Orange Crate that had a seized seatpost. The only new parts I got were a used banana seat, grips, and tires, everything else was salvaged. I absolutely loved that bike, so much so, I didn't even care about the rust all over the frame.

    I’ve been totally in love with them since the first time I saw one in 1976. My first bmx was a Webco. The love of those bikes has never left me.

    Love it! When you first did the GT I really hoped you would do more BMXes and here we go! Thanks so much! Would be stoked to see you doing BMXes again in the future, especially some good old school ones from the 80s we grew up loving and admiring.

  • @odnetnin4720
    @odnetnin4720 ปีที่แล้ว

    Man what I wouldn’t do to have my old Dyno back. It was a compe. Red, white tires, gyro…it was a cool late 80s/early 90s bike to have as a kid. I won it in a raffle as the grand prize. I’ll never forget that day.

    When I was a kid a I always wanted the "Dyno Comp" with mag wheels that was orange and black that was in my local bike shop. I used to go in there and drool over that bike. Thanks for sharing this awesome video!

    Great video, this model was my only new bike as a kid. I sold it when I got my license and quickly bought it back. I still have it and am hoping one of my kids will take it over after some work that needs to be done. Anyway keep up the awesome work and thanks for the trip down memory lane!

    Nice GT your friend has,Rob! Like you I grew up in the same order with bikes. Banana seat,bmx, then into mtb. Just last year I rebuilt a 1998 Specialized Fatboy Expert bmx that I got for free. Love it.

    Rad. I still have my 1986 GT Mach 1 I moded at the time with Flight cranks. And my Haro race plate. And the GT frame/bar/stem pads. Still brings me joy going for a rip. Riders ready? Watch the lights, ...

  • @elliott959
    @elliott959 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    When I saw you adding caliper and v-brakes with the same looking levers I was confused, then my mind was blown when I saw the adjuster thingy they built into those levers to make them long-pull and short-pull compatible. Very cool trick there, and perfect for something like this indeed.

  • @cyrilvillarosa2421
    @cyrilvillarosa2421 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I’m trying to get a better understanding of using foil to take rust off the frame. Sorry of a newbie question. Again amazing restoration/video content.

    • @oldshovel
      @oldshovel  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yah, the aluminum foil is harder/more abrasive than rust but not as hard as the chrome so it acts to clear off the rust without scratching the chrome. 😁

    • @cyrilvillarosa2421
      @cyrilvillarosa2421 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the explanation Rob. I was thinking you’d shoot a light layer of clear coat. Again awesome content. Can’t wait for the next video.

    My first (and last) BMX bike was an Atala from Italy with plastic rims and drum brakes. It looked fantastic but had some technical issues.
    Maybe in 1981...

    It kinda hurts to see the plastic mags and pedals go back on. It also needs one of those mechanisms that let's you spin the handle bars without wrapping the cables.

    00 steel wool and chrome polish will get the rust off that was missed by the aluminum foil while giving it a deeper shine with some protection.

    Awesome video. I was going to send you a note about the brake levers. I need to get a set for my old Mtb. Want to put v brakes on front and keep the original Centre Pull brake for the rear which is mounted underneath the bike. Do you know the model of those levers?

    • @steelisreal4313
      @steelisreal4313 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My previous comment was deleted so here we go again. Shimano St-E51 4 finger version for a brake/shifter combo. If u want just brake levers just search for brake levers -mountain bike long or short pull.

  • @thomasariss9601
    @thomasariss9601 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm a surprise that with those pegs like they burn trusted on because with that style a lot of people put a tight-knit with the peg since it's got a spot outside of a peg or why call the face of the peg we can tighten a 15 mm bolt inside of their even though the peg is threaded ran into that a lot with the old BMX and a lot of times they were rusted on and boy was it trouble getting off

  • @xavierguerrero2712
    @xavierguerrero2712 ปีที่แล้ว

    Probably not related to Bmx bikes but I bought a bike that I plan to use the frame but it had some heavy rust areas that I plan on sanding down to bare metal and then just seal it would this muc off be good for protecting it from rusting again or is there a better method to seal bare metal.

    With me I hate to say it when it comes to GT 90s Dino zone lower end Dino I always liked the GT pro series mags I haven't even watched your video and I can already tell you have aftermarket GT mags from the 2000 era after the fact GT sold out in 2003 the me I like the six spoke mags was the pro series setup there was three and six and I have both sets I love GT retro bicycle BMX and if I were to own any like hybrid of GT from the 90s I'm leaning towards the Outpost

    I always found it weird. I'm 6'2 and ride a size XL 21 inch frame 27.5 hardtail and riding anything smaller for a mountain bike feels way too small but a tiny bmx in comparison feels fine, I really don't get it.

    Saw the two different brakes. Thought that isn’t going to work with the same lever. Noticed during the video you adjust the lever. Thought ok those tektros must have a cable pull adjustment, haven’t seen that before. Then the real fans stay till the end of your videos to get the good info! Happy Sunday morning when relaxing to an old shovel bike resto.
