What would you like to see next in the Blake Builds Series❓💭 Let us know 👇
Dirt jump frame 😉
dude you are so sick I have seen all of your videos and have gotten so much better thanks.
Gravel bike
a paint job, a name and some custom made decals would be fun
full squish build edit: would love to see blake send the mega with it
Should we get some respected frame builders to react/roast it?
epic!
HELL YEAH THAT WOULD BE SO COOL
Give it to Sam Pilgrim and let him "test" it.
Hambini
Oh yes! I second Hambini! :)
Can Doddy do a GMBN Tech breakdown of the Krab please?! Would love to hear Doddy roast that rig.
truee
Pleaseee
Should we get some respected frame builders to react/roast to it?
@@gmbn heck yeah
@@gmbn abso-fucking-lutely. But isn't it basically a home-grown interpretation of the Nukeproof Scout 29?
When will you be taking it down Whistler then?
I did not think you mountain bike lmao was suprised to see you here!
We should do we what we can to keep Blake alive lmao!
@@ur_mum2341 I frequently post mountain bike videos to my second channel you know :P
@@MattLowne oh dam gonna check em out then lol
Nope. Megavalanche.
Would like to get some more information of what Blake would do different the next time he would build a bike by himself, and what worked, what didn‘t quite worked out. nice stuff!
I think he’d make sure the bike is able to go in a straight line the next time
Practice welding a bunch beforehand
I love how 3 hours is an unacceptably long time for Blake to go without making friends 😁
Building the Krab is literally the coolest mtb video I’ve ever seen. It beats all the sick edits that come out every week easily.
I've been working as a welder for a couple of years so I winced at your MIG work and also wished you'd made a jig to keep it all straight but fair play to you Blake, you did it all yourself and it rides. It's certainly inspired me to look for old steel frames to chop up.
Slot the steel plate dropout adapters, you should be able to straighten it up.
I'd like to see that.
First, I could never build a bike so "The Krab" or not, great job. Secondly and most important is the love Blake has for MTB just makes me love it even more than I thought I could.
You call her the Krab and that is your due,
As you are the man who made her come true,
But to me she's Delilah I declare it with pride,
As she carried her Samson on that bloody long ride.
Why, Why, Why. :)
Blake is reciting the poem in the beginning like hes reciting a poem at a poem recital at elementary school lol
Next time you should try making your own fork (with suspension, maybe a with coil-spring like some forks), that would be interesting
I’ve been watching your videos for years and I can never get enough
That was such an enjoyable video for all reasons. ALL REASONS. Smiled for 14 mins straight. Also; yes please have Doddy and some frame builders roast it.
As a gentleman from the Glorious Republic of Kazakhstan once said: A GREEAAT SUCCESSS! Nice adventure, the journey I mean, as regards the bike - although I've known how to stick-weld for 5 years, I'll stick to using frames built by guys... or gals.. in large, massive houses with names like Giant, Trek, Corratec, etc. on them. Greetings from the glorious republic of Latvia and keep pedalling.
YEEEEES Blake Shelton goes bikepacking i love it! Now give us the diy fourwheeler
Great job Blake, as always! Is this what you're taking down Mega Avalanche next then?
dude...massive respect! i´m grinning ear to ear
Really impressive job! I have been considering building up a hardtail frame myself in the future, and Blake has really inspired me to definitely do it . 👍🏻
The dedication of this man is just 💪
I wonder if Sam pilgrim is gonna have a new free bike soon?
It would be awesome if Blake and Sam did another collaboration and welded up something crazy.
That would be epic.
Blake, I'd love to see a bike packing trip with tent camping sometime when the weather's better!
Poetry as well..blake does it all.
Well done with the build, it'll be interesting to see how robust it is...
I spent 6 months in Bournemouth in 2018, Boscombe to Sandbanks is a brilliant way to relax... I only had a folding bicycle for a bit of commuting but I liked how accessible the countryside was for walking and cycling... Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
The guy at 14:08 (At the Bike Rental Shop) was in a BFI Short film I was apart of. So weird seeing Blake Samson ride on my local beach with that dude in the background! The bike looks amazing by the way!!
All I want is whatever Blake takes every morning to always be so positive 😄
Reminds me of my epic trip the last 2 weekends. 240km over 2 days, day 1 100km with hills and a lot of loose sand, day 2 140km on mostly flat land with some loose sand and old cobble roads. Still epic.
that's just...wow!...the krab...whoaaah!...blake..wohooo!...
Blake, you are obviously a really great human being. Thanks for all the hard work and accomplishments.
Blake you are unreal love all the Blake builds watched everyone of the from bike cave to bike rack on your jeep and now bike build what is going to be the next build you'll be doing next carnt wait to see it you are amazing and definitely BOSS you should be made up with everything you build keep up the good work Blake
I aspire to get as much enjoyment out of the simpler things as Blake does!! Keep up the good work lad 🤟🏼
I really enjoyed to listen to the the real Fan of MTB with this intro 😜
It’s Mad Max Blake!
Blake going off 🚀🚀🚀
I love watching these epic rides and Blake is class. 👍
Blake is still the best!!!
That looked an awesome ride Blake
You are clearly stoked with your home build The Krab :)
Can't wait for the next Blake Builds
Are we going to get a bike check by Doddy on #GMBNTech ;)
Great stuff #GMBN
Blakes the best!!
These Videos are soooo nice 😍
cant wait for Blake's future Krab bikes 😁🤙
Kool ride and beer🍺
cheers 🍻
Well done sir. New cycling company start up? Blake's Bikes Emporium? You'll make millions I tell ya, millions!
This brother is my idol!!!
Nice work with the frame! Watched the build and started this one and recognised some of the scenery! (And the trail park in the 29"vs27,5") not far from me in Westbury! .
Impressive to say the very least that the bike is actually not only functional but seems to be holding up quite nicely. My biggest take away though is the importance of riding to explore, escape and enjoy life at slower speeds. Great video. 💪🏼🤘🏼
That was a beautiful poem. Blake's video's, the best video's.
That's nice and all. But can you flip it? :D
Seriously though. Blake is like the Bob Ross of mountain biking. Awesome.
Great job Blake, nothing like building something yourself and seeing it work.
This is something most of us could and probably should try
Awesome job Blake, I wouldn’t trust bringing a sandwich on a ride like that I made never mind a bike frame. Great content as usual 👍👍👍👍👍
Now all you need is a killer paint job on that beast of a bike!
Love to see Blake’s builds! Really enjoy the builds that Blake does and always look forward to his next adventure!
Ohh ! welder and poet... man of many talents. Loved it!
Amen to that !
Should try to make a down hill full suspension be awesome to watch
INCREDIBLE
Next Video: Blakes builds a Full Suspension Bike 😍 😂
These annual Blake bike-packing vids are so good. Well done mates.
Great job on the rig and the voyage. You guy's inspired me to ride on long journey's.
Poetic trail blast!
I’m glad you found a use for the savage “upgrades” you put on the reactor that time.
Oh yess that's so awesome! Surprised he didn't choose brazing to connect the tubes as it's easier to not screw up and it also looks good and doesn't need expensive equipment. My next frame will also be DIY! Hope the headtube won't snap off because it will have a headangle of 61degrees🤣🤣🤣
Full suspension build next Blake! Looking forward to it. 👍👍👍👍
his steel bike weighs the same as my aluminium bike lol
my bike is a merida big trail 500 with some swapped out brakes new bottom braket so fair play brake
Yes i was waiting for this. And firtst btw!!!
160kph haha! Go on Blake!
Awesomeness
this video made my day!
Great job Blake! You are my HERO!!!
samson bikes in gmbn store when? btw did you coat it in rust protection because if not the thing will start to get rusty soon
Great job, pal
Blake does the Megavalanche on the Crab please!
I've fantizised about building a bike with my own hands for so long... and watching blake actually do it and succeed at it pumped me up! Just a question... where do you get a steel Bottom bracket shell and a tapered headtube? Cuz that would be a pain to build
Great adventure.
I still say you did a damn good job on that Krab rig and you did a hell of a job backpacking it in One direction now you have to come back home don't forget to film that one
Blake put the bike to the test on a shred session 👊💪💪
I remember some of the cheap 80's MIG welded Raleighs with worse frame building than that. I think they were built in the same way back then. Lol.
So sweet blake
Blake, you're the man!
nice I'm happy the bike didn't break
That poetry tho , better than my English teachers
Loved the editing of this vid (and obvs Blake and the content). Poetry bit at the start didn't quite work, but glad to see you trying new things. Go Blake (and team)!
U should make a downhill bike next 🙌🏻
Really liked the video and your editing skills are getting better. Keep up doing what you are doing. It's the reason I watch this channel! (and of course all the 'Game of BIKE' videos are fun to watch)
Well done blake this must of taken alot of effort and looked alot of fun. Excellent content
Ha yeh i live in the new forest and this year everything so overgrown I’m holding the bars by they stem as well. Nice little trip.
Blake please start your own bike company I’d buy one!!! 😍
I wanna see Blake build a railbiking add on for the Krab and go investigate some of the many miles of abandoned railway lines in the UK from the Beeching cull.
So stoked about ur bike. Can u maybe do a video, where u jib a bit on it?
Superb Blake, love your vids man 👍👍
Blake, your the man!
You're.
Awesome
Nice
Damn!! This is inspirational! I need a shed!!!
man I never say this, but I have actually really enjoyed this video! doing this as a non-professional welder - wow! keep it up bro! :D
Just an idea 🤔
Let Sam Pilgrim get 2 free/used bikes, saw them in half and bodge a MTB tandem 😍 Then go shreddin' with Sam!
Now, keep doing this. Keep making bicycles.
Would be nice if you could send this frame to a manufacturer to be put through some of the stress tests they run in there own.
YES!!! LOVE IT!!!!
Now that's an epic ride on an epic bike bro!
