In this #ButterSuspension video we take you guys on a #DreamBuild of the iconic #MarinBikes Pine FRS 1994
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Greg and Dom on this one. We create these videos and spend hours, days, and weeks working on them out of love (trust me, money is not a factor here at all). We hope you guys enjoy these videos, they really come from our hearts to your screens.
This was fun
Holy crap dude! The holy grail of my childhood dreams right there. I stared for hours at the MB Action article on the Manitou version of this frame. I have collected most of my favorites from back in the day. My most recent is a Ventana El Habanero that was my cousin's. We used to ride together back in the 90's. Many miles of jealousy riding behind that old classic. She now is displayed next to my RTS-3 that I rode with him. I love these old bikes. Transports you back to the best time of mountain biking. All the small cnc shops cranking out pure coolness. Back when all the big names were made right here in the USA. GOOD fricken times. I just can't spend the money they want for the modern stuff all slapped together in China. I'll spend it on these old rides in a heart beat. Last new bike I purchased was in 2007. Still got her. I went with a Rocky Mountain Element 50. Handmade in Canada. All my favorites had sold out by then. No way I was going to drop that kind of cash just for a name. The brands are all dead to me. And yes I know my RTS-3 is Taiwan, but it's all I could afford in '96. I do have an RTS-1 that's going to be an epic build. The 3 was built over the years I rode it. She's running GT Tech Shop cranks, Hadley hubs, XTR drive train and V brakes. Thompson elite stem, monkey lite carbon bars. She's a piece of art. The 1 is going to be just as built. Already picked up some blue anodized Hadley's laced to Mavic rims, and a full XT drivetrain including V brakes for it, oh and a Race Face crankset of the era. It's an addiction for sure. Now I just have to actually ride them. Lol
Ooh, we can't wait to see how this turns out!
I ❤ the condiment bottles. Great build!
I had to make the yellow grease with food coloring 😂
@@ButterSuspension when I first saw the ketchup on the seatube, I thought it was for the acids to clean the metal maybe rust. Then the mustard. Then I realized it was the old switcharoo. Definitely had me wondering for a bit.
I use ketchup for all my bike builds now! It works great! lol
@@7hhuman995 just be sure to use organic 🤣
What a sensational bike! Congratulations on your care!
That's such a cool bike
That smoke/dart tire combo is still great! So glad Panaracer started making them again, they work really well in PNW conditions.
Well they certainly look rad, but a 2.1 that actually measures out at 1.9 probably wouldn't last one ride under me. 🤣
@@ButterSuspension they are super narrow! They look comically small compared to modern tires, but they will definitely look period correct there.
And as a fellow "man of size" you have to run like 30-35+ psi in them. I have them set up tubeless and they actually work well, haven't blown a bead... yet 😂 Not as harsh as I thought they would be.
I like to see the dedication and attention to detail that you give to your work, I really enjoy seeing your work and the love that you dedicate to each bicycle, greetings from Costa Rica.
Thanks for watching!
Pura vida mae!
Had to re watch this one. I was so excited that I had to comment and I missed the video. Wow man. Just wow. What a pleasure that must have been to work on such a classic. Great video! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Just...brilliant 👍👌😎
Thank you!
Manitous of that era were cnc works of art..and the best thing about this bike is u get two of em...Cheers Butter
Stunning build. Loved the ketchup and mustard bottles. It had me thinking for a bit that's for sure. haha.
Ive just picked up one of these frames, I'm looking forward to getting it built. The 90s was such a great time for Mountain bikes
Nice to watch, great background musak.
Your attention to detail is amazing. Fabulous
Thank you! This job (and my whole career) has all been about details.
This was my dream bike back in the day and I loved Manitou of old. Had a Manitou SX on my old Stumpy and now have Markhors on that bike going strong. Looking to figure out how to pay for some Mezzers to replace my Pike select.
Honestly I’m a TH-cam bikes channels junky and that is the best bike build video I’ve ever watched
So...we should do more? 😂 We're gonna do more!
A quick link huh?
What a great video, I grew up working on bikes from this era - nice work!
It was a last minute thing...I haven't seen a Shimano chain pin in years!
Awesome build. I just spent all summer building up a 1991 Reflex F1 frame. I even used the same fork you used. I've been enjoying it on the trails for the last two months.
Just had this exact bike imported from Germany. I’m a lucky man that this video exists 🫶🏻🤙🏿
Somehow, I missed this in my feed until today. Absolutely loved this!
Thank you for sharing this build! Very cool!
You bet, thanks for watching!
Love the calmness of the music over this. Superb.
That was my dream frame and fork! Haha. It was like looking in a mirror watching you assemble the bike. Except that you are taller and cooler than me!
Beautiful video!!! Brings me back to my childhood.
I remember seeing a Manitou FS at a bike shop in Yakima and thinking "This is the bees knees!" One of the cleanest looking FS bikes of the 90s!
We should do a vintage bike ride video collaboration! Tapeworm shenanigans.
@@ButterSuspension Hell yeah. I'm in!
Impressionant. He tornat enrere 30 anys, recordant quan era jove. M´he emocionat i tot amb els sorolls.😅
Can't wait for this one
Epic! I loved how you stayed true to keeping it period correct!
I love the old stuff!
This is the most oddly satisfying Mtb video I’ve ever watched! The bike, knowledge, skill, editing and just pure love for this great sport. Hope you took to Tapeworm for a proper shakedown. Thanks to all that were involved in making this beautiful bike.
Love this one Greg, my dream bike when I was in 9th grade!!
Thanks Peter! Wish it was your size, you could totally borrow it!
beautiful bike, but i cant ignore how awesome your truck is!
I agree!
So good! I recently watched some Japanese bike assembly videos which were awesome and I suspect this is not coincidentally similar. Plus, Smoke and Dart...!? Can I get an amen!
They still make these tires new! I tried to find some NOS skinwall Velociraptors but when QBP had these in stock...easy choice.
Lovely build! 👏👏
Thanks Phil!
Well done !
Thanks!
TH-cam is a strange place. One minute, I'm buying scrap donor mountain bikes in a sketchy neighborhood and wondering whether to keep the old Rockshox Judy fork and what to do with it. Next minute, totally absorbed watching a Zen master applying greases with tomato sauce and mustard bottles.👍
nice vid.
..and I really miss those Smoke - Dart combo from Panaracer.
but the Smoke left its legacy by being copied and used by everyone on cheap bikes.
a bitlike the Primo V Monster did in BMX
inb4. they still make 'em. (I just miss the old days)
I daydream of riding Velociraptors in 29x2.6...
I'm so glad I looked up steed springs install..I would've never found this channel. And how did you make a chrome spin wheel
Thanks for watching! The Spins are painted metallic silver, I got them that way!
great video always! could you pls make a video of how to assemble and disassemble fox X2 air shock ?
It's possible, but there are 3 different generations of Float X2, the DPX2, the DHX2... All of their rebuild manuals are online as well.
Good video! But please continue spoiling us with suspension nerdery too!
i was lucky enough to ride one of these years ago. it looked and still looks phenomenal. it was far too bouncy and uncontrolled due to the elastomers but that did not detract from the feeling of how special it was and its importance in the development of the mtb we know today. thankyou ❤
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Nice tub of slick honey on bench there
Go through at least two a year...
Great work you guys! What are the amazing hubs on this build? Maybe Hope?
Prototype Cronometro wheels with Titanium spokes. This design was eventually licensed to Cane Creek. Thanks for watching!
The elevated drive side flange of the rear hub is awesome. No chance for a dropped chain to wreck the spokes.
what's the stuff out of the mustard squeeze bottle that he puts on the threads in the bottom bracket?
Grease, it's all grease. I just emptied all the bottles and refilled them with grease.
@@ButterSuspension that's some weird looking tan colored grease. What kind is it?
Can't remember, it was just some random grease from the auto parts store. I just needed yellow, red and mayo colors 😂
@@ButterSuspension lol
I want to downvote for the hockey jersey. But I can't. So I just won't up vote.
Regardless. Shame! How dare you wear such a thing.
