Not only a story well worth telling but a story well told from the man who created it. Nothing short of excellent.
Very nice compliment. Thank you very much!
👍
Absolutely. I was enthralled. Paul is such a gentleman and humble icon. The photos were a great addition to his story. Thank you Paul ! Love to you sir.
Flip, That's hilarious . A safety meeting where a herb was involved..🤣
Yes, it seemed to happen on a regular basis.
Such an inspiring story Paul! I'm 43 and still pretty much a garage builder waiting for my "big break", stories like this keep me going. I love the work you do in all of the videos and I appreciate how much time and work it took to acquire the skills and work ethic. This with just the right amount of eyeballing creates the perfect content.
Thank you very much. Keep building and keep honing those skills!!...
Wonderful video. I’m past 65, have started and owned several businesses, achieving moderate success at best, but learned early on that with small businesses and startups, “survival is a passing grade”. Bravo to anybody who has put their heart and soul in a venture and can make it to old age with a smile
Thank you John. I like your comments...
The best hour I've spent on TH-cam ever! Thanks Paul and Mitch that was an exceptional insight into your career as a forefather of mountain biking
Thank you Daniel. Very nice comment!
Hi Paul, this is Justin from the Gasflux Company. I wanted to say hello and thank you for giving us your story!
Hi Justin! I still use Gasflux products and promote them when I can. Thanks for watching...
You may not understand the benefit and enjoyment we get from knowing the 'real story'. The documenting of your journey makes Brodie fans richer by knowing the background of what and when regarding Brodie bikes. Great story, thanks so much!
Thanks GC. I did have fun telling the story...
This story deserves to be taught in Canadian business schools. Thank you for sharing with the world!
Well, that's a great comment! Thank you very much...
Thank you so much for taking the time to produce this excellent video (whilst probably not feeling your best) and for saving all the supporting documents/photos that went into it. This is a very thoughtful, detailed, and important document (a gift, really) for historians of cycling-especially mountain biking. I’ve been following your channel avidly for many moons now, and while this video is all storytelling and no shop-action, I think it’s perhaps the most engaging of the lot! Well done and please, keep up the great work. Thanks too to Mitch! From what I’ve gleaned from all these great videos, they probably would not have happened were it not for your friendship with Mitch.
Thank you very much. I was feeling good when we filmed this video. Had no idea it would be our longest video, ever. Yes, Mitch and I really are a good team.
So many people have beaten me to the punch, on thanking you for this wonderful wonderful video. The history that you just provided is unbelievable. I came across your channel because of your motorcycle builds and machining knowledge. I come from a family of machinists and you inspire me every time I see a video from you.
I knew you had a background in bicycle frame building. Little did I know how much of an impact you had on the industry. Thank you once again for sharing your story.
Just the opposite here.🤣 I was astonished that Mr. Brodie works on motorcycles.😊
Thank you! Great comments..
Motorcycles are a huge part of my life. Just like bicycles!
Paul Brodie you are a legend! I rode for Brodie under Rodger, Phil and Bruce Spicer from mid nineties to 2001and was proud to represent the Brodie Name!! Also loved trials riding with you!!! Love you brother!!!
Thank you Dave. Yes, I remember trials riding with you, and I am still out at Ioco almost every Sunday... Hope to see you sometime this year!
This is pure gold. You could have made it three hours and I'd still have watched it in one sitting. Thank you
Thank you Kevin!
“ A person who never made a mistake has never tried nothing new” ,,,,Albert Einstein Love your work Mr Brodie.
Thank you.
@@paulbrodie the more I see your videos working with steel ,,, the more I fell in love with your art work ,, honestly ,,,,,your are a walking encyclopedia….I’ll be looking for a road bike frame on the internet,,,,someone has to have one, somewhere….
@@tongalizia3175 I hope you do find the perfect road bike frame for yourself... 😉
I got into DH mountain biking about a dozen years ago. On the weekends we would make the hour or so trip to a lift serviced mountain in Northern New Jersey called Mt Creek. Every so often someone would roll up with Brodie - what a unicorn! The bikes were probably over a decade old at that time but people would gather round and admire the outstanding quality and tech of these handmade machines. Paul, you are really a legend - thanks for the stories!
J, thanks for watching and commenting!
I haven't watched television for at least 15 years, my evenings are spent watching TH-cam. I can't begin to imagine how many videos I have watched during this time but this one is without doubt one of the best ever and I'm not particularly interested in bicycles! Thank you for your story Paul and good luck for the future.
Thank you. Very nice comments :)
What a great and informative session Paul. I'm glad you did this, for the record. It's fantastic we have this type of venue to tell the stories. I only wish our grandparents could have done this way back when, telling stories of the families and their histories. So much is lost, when they were trying to tell us as youngsters, and we weren't ready to listen, and by the time we were, they were gone, and so were those stories. Thank you for this.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks Johnnie!
I've never owned a Brodie, but I always wanted to. This was an awesome journey. Anyone who has worked in the community can relate to some of these experiences, as I have. Thank you Paul...
You look and sound great, Paul! I hope for a speedy recovery for you. Thank you for sharing your story, amazing to see and hear.
Thank you Jeff. And I enjoyed telling my story :)
I laughed when you mentioned a Sekine , pulled from a dumpster and scavenged for tube, to build your first mtb. It is a bike I bought in the late seventies and I still have today. I read they were Canadian built by a Japanese group, to get around tariffs of the time. Any idea where they were built?
All the best with your health issues. Really love your videos. Jeff
@@jeffgarrett1589 Jeff, thanks for liking our videos. I always thought that Sekines were made in Japan, but I could be wrong...
I became friends w your nephew Ernesto several years ago in Arizona.
Your an amazing inspiration. Thank you
Thanks Robert. I don't know who you are friends with, but I definitely have no nephew named Ernesto in Arizona.....
Me mum raised my sis and I on her own, from the late 1950's (you know, that period women were not allowed to have a bank account without a man's signature). Anyway, she got her Cosmologist Degree and became a Hair Dresser. Being the Entrepreneurial type she opened a 2 operator salon (one owner operated stall and one rented to another Hair Dresser). Within a few years (1964 when women were finally allowed to have a bank account) she bought a 9 Operator Salon, and eventually built a 26 Operator Salon in the 70's. After her retirement, she asked me which I think she made more money with? Yup, the 2 Operator Salon with little to no overhead! We all need to stay 'Small Business' whenever possible : )
P.S. Just Liked & Subscribed - great video!!
Edwin, good story! Yes, bigger is not always better... Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the ride thru time Paul. In 1985/86 era I had grown up around auto racing and never seen a mountain bike and came across one at a local store. It was on the end of a rack back in a corner like an outcast. Only one in the store and looked like nothing else there. Royce Union was the manufacturer, and it came home with me. Now going on fourth years later I still have it in my garage. It is still ridable and when I need to visit my youth, I pump up the tires and go for a ride
Right on. Yes, MTBs didn't always catch on really fast...
I know nothing about bikes, but I found your talk fascinating, I too have spent my life in development but of special vehicles. I will never be rich or famous but I have left my mark and lived a life that few have and I'm thankful for that. Best of luck with the treatment.
Roger, thanks for watching!
I bought an emerald green Brodie Catalyst frame in 1992 from Cyclelogical bike shop in Kamloops BC across from the police station after I sold my 1979 Mustang, the guy even drove me to the shop in the Mustang lol
Good story. MTB sales were still good in 1992.
I was fixing bikes for some friends who were going to ship them to Kenya ,Africa.When covid hit the price of shipping went through the roof.They decided it was too much so I was asked"If I would like them?"I said yes,kept the bikes for 2 years while adding to the collection.I was introduced to Rene,he wanted the bikes to ship to Cameroon,Africa.I went through the bikes and picked out the vintage bikes.One bike that I loved was a Brodie ,Kinetic.All it needed was new cables and housing,plus a chain.When I started cross country racing my first ride was a Ritchey which I still have.In 1999 I was sponsored by Schwinn/Toyota and Burlington Bicycle Company.My mechanic and friend Dave Walker who was also a downhill racer for Schwinn/Toyota said to me"At some point give back to the sport."It took 23 years but I used my money I got from the sixties scoop to buy parts I needed for this project.So glad that the bikes will be there for Christmas.Now people are giving me bikes again,this time I want to give to children on the reserves.I am very happy that I have an American classic and now a Canadian classic.Love and Light Mr. Brodie
That's a great story; thanks for telling it. The Brodie Kinetic is not Canadian ,however. It was made in Taiwan. I do like your Spirit of Giving Back though. Keep it up! 😉
Very nice, thank you. I was 18 in 1970, remember the CB750 very well. It was a dream I could not afford at the time. Those were the days. I did see the Dick Mann Daytone 200 race winning bike at our yearly motorcycle show, that bike travelled the world. 'Your' Honda has the same paint scheme as the Dick Mann bike, if memory serves me right...
Thanks for your comments. My friend, Doug, who has owned the same 1971 CB750 for over 50 years, and is very knowledgeable about them, tells me that the paint scheme is wrong. It should be a very dark red. I do like the new colour, but it might not be correct...
I've been a full-time bicycle mechanic for a decade, and the cycling industry is very unique. Sometimes hard to make ends meet as a shop, employee, manufacturer, etc, but somehow it's always fun and rewarding at the end of the day. This video was great, and inspiring. Man, I'd absolutely love to have an old Brodie frame. Maybe I'll run across one someday. Thanks again for the videos.
Thanks for watching. I hope you do get a handbuilt Brodie frame one day soon!
I could listen to your stories for hours Paul! I sure hope you get well soon my friend
Thanks Rich. I still have stories to tell...
You made my day Mr. Brodie! Thanks to you and Mitch for this lovely hours' history lesson. Didn't know about how influential you were on bike design, that only 4000 Brodie frames were ever created and the gatorblade was only 180 dollars. I was a poor student back then and I could only lust after your bikes , drooling over the magazines.
And yes.. a safety talk in the woods... Haven't done that in a while 😂
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Sarkis.
I’m not a bike nerd. But randomly in the 90’s I had a Rocky Mountain. Last week I bought a Brodie ocho 😊
Getting closer.. Thanks for watching!@
@@paulbrodie first week on the new bike was lovely, looking forward to an amazing winter
Great stuff! As someone in Canadian manufacturing, and a lifelong cyclist this great history.
Thanks Brad. I do enjoy sharing my stories...
Brilliant. Thank you for that. Was also road racing in early 1970’s. Saw an early MTB in California,late 1980. Returned to Oxford UK where I was working with friends bike shop. We decided to see if MTB’s were available in the UK. Fast became one of the UK’s few MTB specialist shops. Sold Specialized,Marin,Kona,Ritchey,Trek through the 1980’s. We owned the first Cannondales in the UK. Took part in MTB events,racing,fun,innovations,bike builds,wheel building etc etc through the 1980’s. Amazing days. Did some bike testing for MBUK magazine late 80’s until the MTB scene got too controlled and serious. Since then mix Road and MTB,won a few races and now enjoying gravel riding around my home in Co Donegal..NW Ireland. Still have workshop at home and do bike fit,wheel building,custom builds etc. Really enjoy your work. Thank you.
Felix, thanks for sharing your story. You were there at the start, and that would have been exciting! All the best :)
Lovely storytelling, thank you Brodie. All the best on your continued recovery! You look about 100 times better than the first "we're back", so I'm putting that down as a good sign :D
Thank you very much. My recovery is taking a while, but I am slowly getting better....
I adore my Brodie and it sees the most road time of all my bikes. Thanks for the video and for the part you’ve played in the cycling world.
Thank you Mark. Glad you like your bike!
I was transported back in time, what a beautiful story.
Awesome story and look back into the history of Canadian Mountain biking, Thanks Paul for all that you designed and created. I love the sloping top tubes and they way it has affected bike fit to this very day. You story is so compelling.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for commenting :)
I still remember a early Brodie Test of Metal Race in Squamish in early 90s. We drove up from Vancouver to see the race that became the most memorable ever. Mountain biking was not as big as it is now but every one at the race watching or competing thought it was. The organizers had a bus that drove spectators up to view the race and take it all in at no cost. The riders were from beginner to top end pros that went to go on to be well know riding bikes on trails that you most people would not try and ride today. Such a memorable day.
That must have been the race up at Alice Lake? That's the only Squamish one I can remember...
This was great for you to pass this bit of history on, now it’s on record for ever!
Yes it is, thanks.
Found this channel this morning, first saw the excelsior build then straight on to your story, what an interesting history! Im positive there’s more of your story to be written, all the best with your health.
Thank you Rodney. Yes, there is more to my story and it is already written. It's called my book. I still have a few copies left.
Hi Paul, I was there managing West Point Cycles and then Rocky Mountain after that so I very much enjoyed listening to you recall the early days. I was just talking to Christ Dekerf today and your name came up, small world for sure. Hope you are on the mend. M. Norris
A true inspiration Paul, Hope all is well. Your shop is superb. You had a few great teachers who obviously taught you well. Love all the bikes and what you do. Although not a religious man Bless You and Mitch and great to hear your doing so well. The world is a richer place to have guys like you around.
Bryce Nz
Thanks Bryce. Appreciate all of your comments!
So great to get a peek behind the curtain of my favorite era of mountain biking! Thanks very much!
Bert the Weldor
Thanks Bert, we appreciate you watching!
I remember selling Brodie frames and building them up in late 80s early 90s in Ellensburg at the Recycle, seem to remember a Rasta paint scheme on a fillet brazed frame . Almost cut one of those beautiful forks a hair too short , luckily had a short stack headset and got away with it, one of those memories that makes you double check before trimming a steertube too this day 😄
Good stories Brice. Yes, I hate cutting a steerer tube too short, that's for sure.
Paul, I love your videos, and i'm not even a biking fan lol. I am into machining-etc, and love your videos. Thank you for taking the time to teach the rest of us.
Thanks for watching!
YES!
This is amazing content.
I worked at a rocky dealer in the mid ‘80s: Tantalus, Sherpas…..
I bought a Thunderclap Comp in ‘85. Red Imron paint, black unicorn fork, brazed by you! That was an amazing bike. I kick myself daily that I let go of it years ago.
Thanks Will. I think that bike might have been called a Thunderbolt; don't think it was a Thunderclap. Yes, those were the days...
Hi Paul. I’m positive it was a Thunderclap. Name was changed to TBolt the following year. It was the first year RMB was offering that frame, and it was so amazing when you looked at it compared to the Tantalus which was def a Richie progeny. The reason the name Thunderclap stuck in my mind was that as you said, that name got changed to Thunderbolt very soon afterwards. Game changer for that frame was when Suntour started offering their XC line of components which included a long (for the time) seatpost. I think it was 300mm? Sadly, with that increased leverage I ended up cracking the the TT/ST braze on the front side. That was in 1992. Ended up with a Bontrager OR. The TClap hung in my shop and I can’t remember what happened to it, which as I said, I kick myself daily over.
Just thinking I’ve got some slides of that bike and I’ll dig around and if I can find them I’ll scan and send you a copy
Cheers
@@wills.7626 Well Wil, I was the guy making the early frames, painting them, and putting on the decals. I have never heard of a Thunderclap. So I Googled it. Nothing. There was a Rocky Mountain Thundercap, but that is to do with Pokeman. Rocky Mountain Thunderbolt is Everywhere... That's what the bike got named, and the name never changed...
Nice to see the Hite Ride.☺️ Dropperpost's Grandfather.
Yup, I remember the Hite Rite
Loved it. Life is never, ever, a straight line. You have to be ready for the turns and bad roads but with perseverance and a bit of luck, the road opens and your journey continues.
❤️
Wise words! Thanks for watching..
Thanks Paul for the video. I remember going out riding with your rep, Bruce Spicer when I was a teenager. He would make our trails look easy with those fancy Magura's. And I am not talking about disc's.
Thanks Steve. Bruce is a very good rider!
Fantastic video, amazing history. As a classic bike owner and enthusiast, I find stories like this super important in so many ways. I wish you all the best with your treatment and your retirement. Cheers from Vancouver Island. I think I might have to go find a sovereign!!
Thanks Michael. I feel very strongly that there is a Sovereign out there waiting to be found...
More time on TH-cam needs to be spent like this. learning about things well done by the ones who did them. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Russell. Glad you enjoyed our video...
After reading your book, I couldn't be more happy to hear this, to see the photos. Thank you Paul! I was selling bikes at the end of the 80's and sold a few of your bikes in Quebec City. I've always loved your philosophy. I would have loved to be one of your students. Thank you and take care!
Thank you Richard. Very nice comments!
Thanks Paul, you are a legend and an inspiration!
Thank you Fanus :)
Thanks for such a great slice of mountain bike history! Brilliant storytelling and editing! Lots of LOL too for which I'm most grateful!
Thank you Richard!
I love how much innovation there is, and quite a bit copying too.
It's incredible how incompatible 'love handles' are with raiser bars, I've had colleagues who gave in to insistant customers. It was needed on straight bars but impossible now.
Oh, my, the nostalgia! I got my first bike shop job in 1971, the first place in town with "real European 10 speeds!" I never made a career of it like you, Paul, but my brother and I did end up building some road framesets, and I even won a state TT championship on one of them in '96. Your stories remind me of all sorts of good times, so a huge thanks!
Thanks for watching and commenting :)
So cool hearing about the origins of companies
I agree.
...that was awesome sir! Totally enjoyed it and makes me think how different businesses all have the similar theme to it (idea, short of money ,shady business partner, and then it glides for a bit). Appreciate you sharing your life with us.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Kudos Paul. And hang in there. My mother passed away on the last day of 2020 from Covid. At the time my dad had colorectal cancer and was going thru chemo. He was done in late March 2021 and came back nicely. He was 85. When he was up and running he was playing golf again and went on Facebook and got himself a girlfriend at 86. And she's only 71. I told him he was robbing the cradle! Point being is you will do well and come back better than ever. You have a lot of discoveries ahead of you very soon.
Thanks Peter. Yes, I still have a lot to do in this life, so it was too early for me to leave. Very nice comments. Thanks again :)
You've played a part in many great memories. Thank you for not stopping.
Thanks RJM..
Thank you so much for putting this together Paul & Mitch, I enjoyed every second of it!
Vanir, thanks for watching!
Thank you Paul, from the bottom of my heart I appreciate the story of one's life such as yours. ❤️
Salvador, thank you very, very much :)
I was glued to my screen watching you share your story with us all. Very well done!!
Thanks Simon! You're a Pal :)
Loved this video. You’re so captivating to watch and hear Paul
Thank you very much. Appreciate your comments...
This reminded me of listening to my Dad and Uncle talking about their backstory in racing. Always loved those stories / history lessons. Paul it seemed like you only spoke for a few minutes but it was an hour. We want more. Thank you so much for sharing your passion.
it was truly inspirational to see this! i have been a follower every since i had the great luck to stumble onto your channel. i am currently in the process of building my first frame and can only say i am in awe of your story and life.
Thanks Dennis. Congrats on building your first frame! I still have a few copies of my book for sale :)
Wow! The Wasnot bike is phenomenal!!!
Thanks. You almost spelt it correctly.... Woznot.
Too cool Paul! Thanks ever so much for all the information and the excellent story telling.
Thank you Jeff.
Paul, fascinating story with great illustrations. I didn't think I would like podcasts but your foray into the arena held my attention non-stop. I suspect the cchemo has something to do with the less demanding format (more sitting, less working), if so a seamless transition. Keep your chin up, my hair changer from black to grey also but who's counting years?
Thanks Richard. My strength is not what it used to be, so this format works for now, and I get to tell my stories. I am slowly getting back into the fabrication...
Thanks for telling us your story very interesting and it teaches me to never give up which you are now carrying through to your treatment
I wish I had so many photos of everything I've done over the years
All the best for a good Christmas and continued recovery
Thanks John. Yes, I did get into the habit of documenting almost everything I did through my passion for photography. No regrets there :)
Thank you for sharing, your contributions to this world are appreciated greatly! Fantastic
So nice of you. Thanks very much :)
True Bicyclist seem to have great relationships with single cylinder motorcycles. We cherish corner speed and the Bravery of not slowing down, but when we do it takes strong brakes.
Outstanding history lesson here.
I worked at a Bicycle shop in 1979+80. The shop owner would get such a high building a "one of" special that all the workers seemed to glow as well.
Really put me back there watching this. M.B. Action mag.
Paul, Your Too Cool.
Glad to think that I know you!
Thanks !!!
Thanks Mark. Appreciate your comments.
Thanks for sharing the brodie bikes story! If you're ever interested in sharing more of your life story, I'd love to hear about the other careers you've had, too. Thanks again!!
Thank you jwoodyr1. I did write a book, still have a few copies left, and there are lots of stories in there. Email me if you are interested. Thanks. I only received your comment last night, so I am not late at all :)
I really enjoyed this documentary! I liked all the extra pictures you included of your history, and the things you created as well!
Thank you.
Thanks, Paul. Great share. I've had to get back up after so many issues and it's great to see that i'm not alone. I hope you're feeling better.
Thanks Marty. I feel like I am healing well :)
Thank you Paul and Mitch. Really enjoyed the history. Hope you have a safe and happy Christmas. Cheers.
Thanks Ernie. Merry Christmas to you too :)
Thank you Paul for sharing! Get well soon!
Thank you.
Thanks Paul, this was really informative and really makes me appreciate the small companies as is more a labor of love than anything else.
Thank you Alberto.
Looking really good Paul, bless you buddy and great to see you back on one of my favorite channels.
Bryce New Zealand
Thanks 👍 Bryce. Appreciate your comments.
Really great to watch. I loved the early days of mountain biking, simple fun times.
Yes, those were great days, simple!
FANTASTIC ! Tells so much about creativity, passion, entrepreneurship... Thanks god you made and kept this photos especially from the workshops.
I have a lot of photos. Always kept everything. Thanks for watching!
What a wonderfully interesting story, thank you Paul and Mitch!
Thank you!
You're looking great Paul. Fantastic to see you're smile, and hear your story.
Thank you.
That was great,really enjoyed watching this,thanks for taking the time to make this video👍
Thanks Sam!
Youre a fighter Paul! What a life you have lead. Thanks for sharing it with us. A coworker of mine at a bike shop in Maine had a rocky mountain in 1990, we all drooled over that frame.
Lee, thanks for watching.
Wow! Such a wonderful story. Thank you, Paul.
Thank you Bennett.
What a wonderfull story!!! And all this conections!!! Best regards Paul :).
Glad you enjoyed it!
thank you for your contribution to mountain biking Mr Brodie, i am very grateful.
Thank you Adrian :)
Paul, thanks for sharing your story. I'd love to see the follow up.
Thank you Paul. The followup? Laying off staff, downsizing, trying to get out of debt... It's all in my book. I don't think it's inspiring.
Awesome video and great insight into the early days of the industry! Thanks!
Thank you.
Thank you for sharing this incredible story! All the best!
Thank you Pawel :)
Thanks so much, Paul, and Mitch! Really enjoyed hearing your story! There were some hard lessons learned here. You never cease to amaze me, Paul! Glad you're coping with the chemo, and I'm holding good thoughts for a successful completion. Also hoping that your tie-dye banner finds it's way home to you!
Thanks Tom :)
Thanks for sharing, I think the bro/die was pretty cool.
Thank you Glenn...
what a wonderful, well documented story. Thanks Paul!
Thank you Klaas.
Bravo Paul. A story well told of a life well lived. Never been into bicycles much but you had me hooked and following the story avidly. Glad to hear you're doing well.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Really enjoyed nibbling through this over a couple of mornings with my coffee. Paul and Mitch, thanks for telling the story!
Coffee and a video... what more could a guy want? Thanks for watching!
❤Wow Paul and Mitch, great episode! This is a beautiful look into your personal journey with bicycles and is truly inspirational. Keep strong and making great things!
Jean-Pierre, thank you for watching and commenting :)
Cheers bud, Fab story stay well look forward to hearing more next year.
Thanks Alan.
Thanks for all the great videos you have done over the year Paul, i would like to wish you a Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year, stay well and strong, hoping for some more next Year.
Thank you David. Merry Christmas!
This has been very interesting to hear a part of your story, thank you Mr. Brodie
Steinmar, thanks for watching :)
Brilliant! Just finished reading Charlie Kelly's Fat-Tire Flyer so your video dovetails very well regarding the history of mtb. Noticed your first red frame was a 1x!! Thank you for your contributions and for your wonderful videos :) They don't make em like they used to :(
Thank you very much.. I read Charlies book too. Yes, 1X works well in many situations..
Amazing, you're such a good story teller mate :) Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
