20:48 one thing i did when i first swapped my bike to single speed but never seen anyone else do was routing the chain under both pullies instead of the convetional manner, this way it'd be nicely tensioned and wouldn't swing as much since it kinda negates the swing point of the deraileur
@@brunaogemeplay2439 it’s as much just not wanting the chain to skip, with a reduced wrap it can happen though with a bigger 18t it’s less likely than with a smaller one
@@Ali_Clarkson indeed, it's something to take into consideration. Also, i just realized your diy tensioner does just what i mentioned in a more effective and safer way, guess you're really ahead of the game lol
Love the build! +1 for adding the race face stem / azonic bar combo back on, but that's just me... and bc this looks so similar to my old 2001 hardtail Balfa in bright red. I ran the same kujo but on the front. Avid mech discs.. bb7s? which are still awesome today Would've loved some of those cranks back then. Broke so many square taper cranks.. Remember once I switched to splined "is*s" style haha.. it made a difference. cheers mate
You hit the jackpot! I always wanted a Pace frame with Pace crank-set (or was that a Race Face crank-set?). What a great combination! My preference of course was for the anodised aluminium frames but I have to say the powder-coated red version looks gorgeous! 1:58 What's the big deal? It can be gusseted and re-welded. There's tons of good welders out there. The question is: do bicycle riders know this or do they chuck their broken frames in the recycling bin without checking first? 10:15 Any half-decent machinist can fix that. Shouldn't be that expensive. 11:33 An Alex 24 on a Pace frame with Pace hub! What? Alex 24 were bottom of the pile! Not even Halfords would stock them! 18:35 Middleburns looked ghastly though. I wouldn't use such a set unless everything else on the bike was just as vulgar looking. 21:50 This is the obvious choice.(32:33 agrees) 22:44 If you're that worried about it make a mould of it to have it re-cast if it brakes. Better yet, make a laser scan and have a few spares 3-d printed. 28:03 Are you sure the seat-post alone would not be more comfortable? This looks mega painful! 29:05 I'd be more interested in how much that thing cost. 31:30 You need to place a protector over the vintage NOS Pace chain-stay protector! I know I would. 31:13 You brought back a lot of memories, especially with the Azonic stem and the Tioga not shown. I'm definitely subscribing. Oh, I was already subscribed - never mind. Great skills too! One word of caution though: I would be so worried about being period correct with the tyres and especially the inner tubes. These things deteriorate exponentially with age. The last thing you need on a period bike like this is some serious damage due to a burst inner tube or, worse, tyre wall!
I consolidated all my comments into one so that it would look less annoying without realising you had already replied to each one of them @@Ali_Clarkson ! First time this happens to me! Unfortunately, I cannot undo the deletions so I'm not sure which replies corresponded to which comments exactly. I guess you're right about re-welding the frame, it would weaken it without heat treatment which in the case of this painted frame would mean you'd lose the original paintwork. I guess that is one huge downside of aluminium and titanium frames... you gotta to take care of them. Which one of the comments you think I'm dead wrong about? The one about the hub? Or the one about old tyres maybe? For the hubs, reckon, worst case, the machinist would cut off the broken flange on the lathe, remove the metal down to the carbon tube, make a new flange and glue it back on the tube. Easy-peasy. Probably cheaper to buy another hub of course. Alternatively, if you don't want the ultimate strength, the missing bit of the flange could be built up with welding and subsequent machining would give it the original shape. Probably harder than it sounds with dubious results. I'm no machinist by the way. I had never seen a red Pace frame before this video btw. I'm torn now because I always thought that the Pace anodised frames were the coolest. I also did not know they are not as strong as they looked. I always thought that they were the meanest and toughest out there based on their looks alone. Of course back then I could only dream about a Pace frame...
@@Ali_Clarkson crikey, that's not good!!! Great build btw, it was so cool to see so much retro stuff, it brought back so many good memories 🙌 those were good times
Back in the erly 2000s as a teen, i used to do abit of trials,,, not much money tho,,, i had a saracen xray, mini seat,, big old long stem,,, onza cranks,,, the ones with the saw bashring😊 ,,, this build reminds me of that so much
Bike industry always convinces us we need new stuff. Nice to see you revisit all these things with the expertise to review them. I ride my 14kg 2002 planet X bike so I can blame my failures on the weight.
Love the Granny God and the bike! Those John Tomacs are pretty sweet too. External butting is a little strange although it makes total sense. Looks like a good BB hieght too
That's an HS22 booster from a 90's model brake. I have a pair of HS22s in that exact grey colour on my 1996 Santa Cruz Heckler. The levers are honking great 3 finger hobbies but you learn to get used to them with just two fingers and careful positioning of your hands.
@@Ali_Clarkson they do appear to be as rare as rocking horse shit! Wayne Walton, mark lowles or one of the other hoarders probably have a full colour run of them! 😂
That sort of rings a bell@@Ali_Clarkson from back when I was reading up about those things a lot. It makes sense. I could never afford one of these straight spoke affairs which back then were all custom lacings and the thought of snapping a hub was frightening enough (mostly for the cost aspect, the thought of breaking my neck obviously came a distant second) to keep me off them.
I really adore PACE frames and their forks, they always look so cool. Have you ever played with TPU tubes at all? i heard theyre almost impossible to pinch flat and theyre SUPER lightweight
Wanted one of these so badly after seeing Akrigg on one at Addingham but they were out of my league back then. Had to make do with a cheap copy that still had square top and down tubes and similar geometry. I used to run the old STX cranks and ran two 22t chain rings back to back with a piece of chain acting as bash on the outer one. Gave it to my nephew when I upgraded to a Saracen team frame. He snapped it long after🙄
Have you ever used Planet X BMF rims back in the days?? I remember using those rims on a set of wheels on my old OLD DH rig and they where just monters that would run through anything
That small hole in the bottom of the BB shell, is that for a crank stopper or just drainage? (I wouldn't have thought crank stoppers are a thing in trials?)
That Mavic X517 rim, and Kool Stop red pads (grinded rims and a lot of tar:D) brought back many memories:) Also do you have a reccommendation for a rear hub (not insanely expensive) similar like shimano silent clutch was, with "instant" engagement?
Can’t say I can think of a decent hub sorry, you’re almost asking for an impossible product…if it’s cheap it probably won’t be strong and if it’s silent it also might not be reliable
The Shimano silent clutch hubs engaged pretty much instantly but felt so spongy under load that they were very hard to get used to for XC riding, not to mind trials. Box (Formerly Stealth) and Onyx make Sprag Clutch based hubs for sale at the moment (More or less the same thing as a roller clutch), but they're not cheap. The only Shimano roller clutch hub I'm aware of now is the Alfine 11, and it feels noticeably spongy under any kind of power, with 2nd gear being more or less unusable it's so spongy. I love the silent running and low maintenance for commuting though, the 2 kg ish weight it adds to the back axle means bunnyhopping the bike is a challenge.
great build! i have a set of silver middleburn cranks with a red spyder that would look great on that. also is there a reason for the cut flange on the grips?
Pace are they full aluminium and flex a lot when you are on the back wheel? Maybe Im mistaken. I remeber the mech as a tensioner too. Your titanium design is 200% better. Great build.
@@Ali_Clarkson always enjoying your bike build vids! So relaxing to watch! 😊👍 Specialy your rare bikes, never knew this brand names until your vids! Sick bike collections you got there!
The Rocket Pro was a very cool looking bike, especially with the Pace style forks (I think they were a company called U.S.E) that they sold the whole bike as.... I had a couple of Rocket Pro trials frames, cracked the first one (on the underside of the top tube just behind the brace) and they gave me a replacement. There's just something very cool about Reynolds tubing and Canadian products
@@bengray5013 you are about the forks the was u.s.e from memory only came in silver !! I had a friend he was sponsored by rocket he was always cracking them as well !! Good times
@@miamiglia I remember the U.S.E forks in black and silver versions, but by all accounts they were really flexible. I used sunn straight blade trials forks on my original Rocket which I think caused the frame to crack, so on my replacement frame I opted for curved Giant trials forks and had no stress issues with that... my frames were blue, but I always loved the look of the White rocket with the U.S.E forks, it looked so clean and the wrap around logo decals were really smart 🤩
Wow almost a perfect replica of mr akriggs bike 😍😍😍😍 the pace was the holy grail back in the day. Then it was the leeson followed by the crescent of jj gregovich
Some later pace frames had really cool sliding dropouts, no need for a mech or tensioner. I’ve still got an old pace 325 with them, it’s setup single speed with the chonkiest azonics stem and a pair of straight carbon tube forks, sadly they are just a pace copy and not the real deal.
@@Ali_Clarkson Ahhh maybe not then... Red Letter Media - I believe they coined the term "memberberries' when referring to all the little 'ohh, I remember that' moments the various recent Star Trek series chucked in for fan service. I may be wrong about 'em coming up with it but that's how I know the word, and the first time I heard it.
This was so close to my mate Daves bike from BITD! I was gutted when you swapped off the Carbon Fork!! I remember him spending what seemed like unobtainable amounts of money on his Pace way back when! Chris King Hubs, Mavic Rims, HS33's, that exact Seat with a Thomson Post! Race Face Bars, Stem, Cranks, DMR V12 Pedals the Mag/Ti ones & the gnarliest bash guard i think I've ever seen, it was like a circular disc saw from Mad Max 😄
@@Ali_Clarkson Maaaaaate!! Haha. He spent a solid year saving up, getting in contact with companies via his job to see if he could get sneaky shop/staff discounts etc. Pre-ordered the F&F
V-brakes on the back of the fork seem like a bad idea. Braking will push them against the bolts that will loosen with vibration and everything will soon explode, instantly killing everyone in the vicinity in a most painful manner indeed.

20:48 one thing i did when i first swapped my bike to single speed but never seen anyone else do was routing the chain under both pullies instead of the convetional manner, this way it'd be nicely tensioned and wouldn't swing as much since it kinda negates the swing point of the deraileur
