This Diamondback Release 29 MTB was pretty much a pile of parts in my storage unit. With miscellaneous parts from the parts bin, our partners, and Facebook marketplace, we’ll build this into a full bike and donate it to a great cause.

  • On behalf of The Dirt Therapy Project, I want to thank Seth, Diamondback, Cane Creek and all of Seth's Loyal viewers for the awesome support!
  • As someone who struggles with issues from past deployments, this is greatly appreciated that you support a great cause like this.
  • As a veteran that went overseas multiple times. I really like that project. Riding my bike is my favorite way to release and relax.
  • His bike spare parts: Carbon handlebar, half a very good mtb, a telescopic saddle... Now my bike spare parts: plastic children's bike pedals, used BMX grips, a city bike tyre and a clamp. Good video!

    Might need to get into supporting dirt therapy. My dad spent over 20 years in the army and we lost him to his PTSD 2 years ago. He's who got me into mountain biking and we had been planning some trips around to some trails when I had time off from my new job.
  • @CaptainBugey
    Helping the community with and thanks to MTB, that's how you secure a place in my MTB Hall Of Fame.
  • @jarthursands
    echoing a lot of my fellow vets here, I achieve clarity and peace one mile at a time. This is a fantastic charity Seth, thank you for the support.
  • @_MrSnrub
    I'm not a MTB rider, just a regular gravel/road junkie, but I love your content. This is a very sweet thing, and very glad that it will go to good use to provide mental health services to others in need. Cheers, Seth.
  • @andrewpm2
    You're one of the few MTB personalities that have selflessly given 100x back to the sport/community. You're awesome man!
  • @armadillito
    31.6 mm is a nominal diameter - if the post and tube were both manufactured to precisely that size you'd need a mallet or more to get them together! Each component will be toleranced within a window a fraction of a millimetre either size of the nominal size to make sure any combination of tube and post fit together.
  • Wow. That bike looks great. Let's stare at it. 😳. As a vet I'm proud to know that you did something so kind. Thanks sir. Keep on keeping on.
  • As a veteran I approve this video. Long time watcher and first time commenter. Great job Seth.
  • @bdog_rips
    It's so cool how you take this bike and give it away to make someone else's life better. It also gave the viewers more knowledge about putting together a bike. Keep up the great videos!
  • As a disabled veteran i tryly appreciate what you did to help other vets!! Thank you for sharing this with everyone.
  • @BomberCrewMtb
    Bomber crew mtb does something similar for veterans and friends in Southern California! We are friends with dirt therapy project I look forward to hosting some events together here in our area. I really loved the cause for which you built this bike Seth. If you or anybody you know in Southern California are in need of a veterans group please send them our way.
  • 9 years with the British army, awesome to see help getting your veterans with mountain biking
  • During and post-career, I found/find biking very therapeutic. Be it on a MTB or on my touring bike, it's great at stress relief, great at getting you out and about, great at keeping the chubbiness down and great at introducing you to a new community of great people. Thanks for introducing us to The Dirt Therapy Project. I had no idea they were around.
  • Just want to say thanks from another combat vet. My bike has been a life line many times since I got out. It’s so great to see you support a great cause. You’re my hero man🤘🏻🤘🏻
  • @thcmtb
    TDTP is a great organization! Seth, come to Burnet, Texas and ride this fall with us at Spider Mtn and RPR. We have small YouTubers and great people in our MTB community here. You’d have a good time. Thank you for leading the way!
