- In Part 1 of this series by Cycling Adventure Studios the artist Garry Orriss will travel around Australia on a 29 inch, aluminum mountain bike bought in the supermarket chain Aldi. The mountain bike has been modified and turned into a professional touring bicycle and in this episode you will see the changes made and the equipment used.
In his poster competition your lucky guess could even win you a tattoo art poster, signed by the artist and sponsored by GoArt.com, you will also see the Berlin Solar Taxi. The artist has owned many touring bikes and welded his own frames and this video gives an excellent insight and overview into the equipment used, with some useful tips, techniques and critiques.
Truly one of a kind bicycle, I love it!
That's become such an interesting touring machine! I love the ingenuity. Especially the custom shaped parts!
What a motivation, your modifications are very innovative and practical, i love it.
Hi there. What a great job with this bike. It surely is one of a kind. I share your passion for bicycle touring and much of my channel is about it. My touring bike is a mildly modified 1980's mountain bike. I rode it across Central America and Canada. You''re an inspiration. Keep the shiny side up and happy trails!
Everything about you is creative!
😲 ohh, this video changes my tour planing ^^
Brilliant concept on many levels.
This bike just knocked those light gravel, backpacking, cofre cup hanging by the side bikes off the park!!! What a beautiful beautiful bike!! You have 211 subscribers and The man Durianrider is a fan already. Well done. If you keep posting videos, you will have a regular subscriber here!!
Well made Gary. Sharp smooth video. Crisp sound. Very interesting and pleasant narration. captivating technical story that should appeal to a wide audience.
25 kilos and yet here i am worrying my weight of my bike because i have a mindset of a boyscout always have backups/tools/aids kit/tubes/lubes/locks all in my bike and thats just for going to work everyday but yours is wow that is awesome
It was great you meet you Garry and I hope to see more of your.videos soon and safe travels around Australia.kind regards Kane.

You are a bit of a genius. saludos desde Canada
Lovely video, such a cool bike! 😍👍 You've got a new subscriber! I can't find part 2-7 on your channel, only part 1 and 8... Would love to see the rest! Greets from Sweden 🇸🇪 Keep it up!
sweet! that intro though!!
Josss
not bad not bad couple questions for ya can u Make a mountain bike as fast as a road bike and what are the best gears to have
I'm curious about the crank design..
Greeting from Indonesia 👍
That's a heavy bike indeed!
Between Aldi and Lidl, it's amazing the amount of great stuff you can find in the middle aisles.
I bought a pair of 20 litre roll top pannier bags in Lidl in Ireland five years ago for either €8.99 or €9.99 that have been used and abused and they are bloody magnificent. Unfortunately there's a taped seam coming apart on the side where there is a zipper on one of them.
I keep hoping I'll find another set of them for sale. 🤞
I'm just a tad under 2 metres tall so unfortunately I think that Aldi bike may be a little bit on the small size for me.
I need the largest frame size available. Long legs.
Great video.
Probably late for the contest but I like your art . 119.3 lbs
I hope.
That's an amazing video! Also super interested in how the spring system works for you, what a great idea. Really like the MGM inspired logo, too. Gonna guess 61 kilos, but if I'm right, I feel bad for your knees ;) #Subscribed
thats a wholesome-ass video, Gary
Great video - looking forward to the next one. I’ll have a guess at 128kg.
can you use a step through bike for touring ?
Super Video, ich schätze das Gewicht auf 79KG
Beste Radler Grüße
♥️
I would love to start a journey
hey Garry, I was searching your profile for long time. We met each other in Gunning - Australia. Camping along the road! I was on my way to Melbourne.
How are you? where have you been last months? still in Australia?
I am living in French Guiana for now. if you are around let me know.
cool bike think iam a bit late but how much is it? i would say around 120 pounds .
What a random intro. Like your style. PS the bike will weigh about half a metric ton loaded up!
power
Great video I love so much your WORK. I'm prepare to trevel by bike to Brazil to Canada and Alaska. How a can find solar batteries I need more information. I'm no riach guy.. I will need a sponsors to some support. Maybe you KNOW some guys patronage. Who knows? Just a question. It will be honar if I can trevel in any adventure trevel with YOU. Maybe you can be with me in this travelling to Alaska or I will to your next bike travel?😊 thanks for read my massage. Ed.
Nice to see you put so much afford and creativity into your video’s. I hope this series will continue! You probably got held up by the infamous virus i guess?
How do you push that two hundred fiftyseven pound bike and what do you eat for energy ALL the best FROM THE Pacific northwest
Polygon Indonesia
Electric motors work well with heavy touring bikes. They have the torque to move the bike without gears and help lower centre of gravity.
what are the two springs on your crankset for please ?
What happened to this crazy, ambitious, dare I say audacious project?
What name front rack??
My guess would be bike and gear 160 pounds

Nice video. I don't want to criticize. But it seems to me thatyou carry a lot of apparently unnecessary weight
Can you please make your content inclusive and accessible to everyone by formatting the auto captioning into closed captioning please? it is very hard to enjoy your content relying on only the auto captioning sadly (I'm Profoundly Deaf)
I envy you
