turning my 90s MTB into a gravel bike (the budget way) | was this a good idea?
With my focus recently shifting towards off road riding, I needed to find myself a gravel setup to take on the local trails. In this video, I convert my old 90s mountain bike into a gravel bike using a semi drop bar setup, in an affordable way. The idea behind this is for the bike to be a temporary off road machine until I can build up a fully fledged, more performance oriented gravel bike. Join me as I take my converted bike off the roads and into the local woodlands to test whether or not this was a good idea! Hope you enjoy the video and let me know what you think about this idea!
