A bit dull ( unless you're a bit of a bike mechanic) but does show real craftsmen at work.
the last 2 minutes are nice.
Bikes were tested by engineers. Today they're tested by marketing.
Bikes were built to last rather than to the latest sales trend. Aluminium frames last 5 to 10 years, steal pretty much lasts forever (if painted).
Carbon will snap. Steel will bend and straighten.
