HOW (NOT) TO BUILD A BIKE WITH DAN BANKS

Steel pegs save dolphins' lives

8 Jan 2021

Filmed and edited by Fred Murray

After Dan Banks received a box containing a Wethepeople Battleship frame and parts, we thought it would be a great idea to have him whip it together as a how-to video of sorts. Unfortunately Dan is definitely not a bike building expert... and he didn't have Substance owner/bike wizard Si Gibb to help him. But most importantly - save the dolphins!

(Apologies for the change in sound 3/4 way through - our lapel mic stopped working!)
