Also, I really enjoy the craftsman 6gallon pancake air compressor. I found it for $150 online, and it's small enough to fit in your home or a small garage but has tons of power. Makes even the most stubborn tubeless setups a breeze, helps you clean off your dirty kit at the end of the day, and ofc helps you clean up your workspace too.

Great advice on experimenting with tire pressure. Most people I ride with never even look at their tires before a ride. I check my tire pressure before every ride because it's important for the way I ride that my bike be absolutely consistent. I quickly check wheel trueness, spoke tension, brake function, tire pressure, axle security, headset tension, crank/pedal/saddle clamp security, shifting operation and shock performance. Before every ride. And i ride every day. But I ride at a higher level than most people I run into. It just goes with the territory when you ride professionally...your only as good as your equipment and equipment failure can cause serious injury or death. And if you don't think about it one day...that's probably the day that it's gonna fail and put you down. I speak from experience. I've had a rear wheel come off in a wheelie in my top gear because of a faulty quick release. Chain snapped and when the wheel came out my legs collapsed under the bike and the chain wheel rode all the way up my leg to my ass cheek. I got rolled into a ball with my bike. Hurt like a bitch. Left me a nice little scar as a reminder to go with several others to check my shit before every single ride. And I do. 😁 Happy trails y'all.

as a bike mechanic, one of my favorite tools is the PW-4 pedal wrench. I think the close second is the park tool ND-1 for wheel building. it's so much easier to install spokes with that tool if you're running dual wall rims. you could just use an extra spoke to feed the nipple through the holes, but it's easier with just one tool. as for tools that are useful if you aren't a mechanic.. I'd say just get a really good set of allen wrenches(2,2.5,3,4,5,6,8mm), a chain checker, housing cutters, a Phillips head screwdriver and a 9 and 10mm wrench. dont forget a bike stand and don't cheap out on it if you're gonna do lots of bikes. with all of those tools, you can do most of the non specialized work and do your own tuneups with no hassle.

We got two of these for our daughters kzfaq.infoUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L the same size for age 6 and 9. It works very well for both girls. Gears were very easy for them to learn. Changing gears up takes some hand strength and is a bit hard, but they are learning. They did not come with water bottle holders- we actually got confused and thought the Derailler Guard was the bottle holder!! Regardless of these details, the bikes are fantastic- even our six year old who only just learned to ride bikes caught on within an hour of practice and loves it. Lightweight and easy for them to handle. All the parts are in excellent condition and the bikes are easy to assemble and very well packaged. Great choice for kids!

While the description says "tool only" it does come with one each of a bi-metal kzfaq.infoUgkx0vyBwjtx9GGOuiqUVT2sRoYqmDoNT_RI and HCS blade plus an adaptor plate for non-DeWalt blades. Wish I had known that before I bought the blade kit, but oh well. Since I already have a DeWalt drill, charger and batteries there was no need to buy more of those so this was a great deal.There is one other consideration. DeWalt does't sell the depth guide separately so you need to buy the three parts which make it up -- the N275350 block assy, the N275341 metal rod and the N278801 knob. Amazon does sell all three.

Valve core remover - good for pulling the valve cores on your forks and rear shock for rebuilds too. Multi Tool with chain breaker - used mine a few times now. Very handy. Digital Tyre Pressure Gauge - I learned my floor pump reads 3 to 4 psi high so 22psi on it is 18 real. Been quite a changer for my tyre setups. Best. Need to look at a plug set - lost a relatively new tyre past summer from a side wall slash but I probably would have needed an inner patch to get it useful again. Another great tool is a Park Tool Spoke driver - I have the 3 pronged one and as I seem to be chewing through the odd spoke / nipple with the forest debris I ride over (lots of rubbish left behind from the local fores harvester machines who's track is what I ride) - well, a PITA to having to pull the tyre off the rim but replacing the spoke/nipple - a breeze especially with deep rims. A good pair of gloves for saving your hands when wrestling with tyres is also helpful. ))

@GNX157
@GNX157 3 жыл бұрын
Disconnect the cable from the derailleur. By hand, while pedaling the bike on the work stand, move the derailleur up to the biggest cog, adjust the upper limit screw so it goes in that gear, and not overboard etc. Then let it gradually return to the smallest cog (while pedaling), and make sure it can go into the smallest cog correctly and not overboard. Now your limits are set. Don’t touch them again while doing your indexing. Before connecting cable again, make sure barrel adjuster is at least one turn out from fully bottomed out. Make sure shifter is clicked down into smallest gear (pull on cable manually while clicking to be sure). Attach cable and adjust indexing. If you still have problems after that, you may have a cable, housing, or shifter problem.

Okay guys, Doddy is still not describing accurately how a chain wears. Inside the roller, is a bushing, that the roller does not touch. The roller rides on a shoulder created by both inner plates. You need to take apart a chain to fully understand this but, the wear you need to measure is the wear between the PIN and BUSHING, not the roller. The tool he is now using, when done correctly, will remove the wear between the roller and shoulder, from the pin to bushing wear measurement. Worn or loose rollers have absolutely NO effect on elongation of the chain.

Don't bother with the air booster, the previous suggestion, the CO2 canister, works better and seats tyres that the booster cannot. If you need to seat more than 4 tyres per year, consider buying a compressor instead.

Doesn’t CO2 mess with some sealant?

@@scottlstone first seat the tyre and then add the sealant.. Pref. let it seated and pumped to the maximum pressure overnight. Just make sure that all the beads have popped out and the tyre is seated fine. Once it takes the correct shape, you can unmount it (for example to add sealant, though I prefer to add it through the valve stem) and then it will seat back up. If you HAVE to use CO2 on a tyre with sealant already in, release it ASAP and pump the tyre with a regular pump. The sealant will survive for an hour or two with CO2 in the tyre. Though I'd take the tyre (and the sealant) out, repair the tyre if needed, and add back the sealant, topping it if necessary.

@@roilev Seems a bit of a faff, surely just get the hang of doing it the standard way in the first place, if you do it enough times you get a knack for it. Besides in my experience it is the cheap tyres that are difficult to seat. Good tyres and good rims shouldn’t give up too much of a problem.

The Topeak chain tool is the worst bike tool I’ve ever bought. Got the other week tested the pliers to remove a tyre and both of them broke on first use. Wolftooth do metals tools similar look far better bet

I always wondering why people use multitool in their carage or workshop. They are great when you need tool when need when ride stop with mechanigal issues & etc. but after all they are no handy tool to use.

TOO MANY INTERRUPTIONS! I’m not even halfway through and I’ve already seen numerous in-vid break in advertisements 👎🏼 This high interruption rate combined w ill fitted placements lowers quality, ruins content, massively reduces viewer enjoyment, but worse views takeaway, and more. Sadly, I don’t plan to watch the second half. I enjoy you guys, but can’t roll w the interruptions, especially such a high number.

It is annoying I agree but how do you think they help bankroll their channel. You can subscribe and become a member which removes adds but it’s pretty pricey
