If you haven't dropped your brand new fork on the ground or installed your tires backwards, can you even call yourself a MTBer? 😅

I feel like you are the most realistic MTB garage mechanic. We all make all those mistakes all the time. Love it. Too relatable!!

Hi i work in a bike shop and one of my favorite thing is watching people like you who arnt new to the bike sence but arnt season mechanics work on bike and i always get a thrill when the drop the for they always do keep it up

For about ten seconds I was fully convinced this was the Sam Pilgrim channel!

t's rare to find a content creator who strikes the perfect balance between entertainment and effective communication, but this presenter has nailed it!🚲

Man! You made me want to go into mountainbiking! Started a saving account to save up to a stumpjumper! I ride a rockhopper now, mostly as a commuter bike to work. But after you popped up in my feed I decided to save up to the stumpjumper and blast trails! 😍

I also eyeball once and cut twice. That was a fun episode. Congrats!

New bike day is the best.

There are a handful of mtb channels where you get really excited about a new video. You are absolutely killing it my man. Rofl, the point where the fork fell just happened as I'm writing...

Beautiful bike. That raw optic catches me. I am not a fox or kashima fan, but it always looks more premium than any other forks and dampers and the adjustablity of them is great. More room for adjustments especially for heavier bikers. Have fun with it.

ive had this bike for almost a year and i love it

that piece that you put in your headset is called a headset cup. also here is a trick for cutting dropper housing to the right length, basically youll pull the housing out of the front of the bike until you have about an inch of housing still coming out of the seat tube, then youll turn the handle bars all the way right so that the bars are close to inline with the frame, then just line up the housing with the dropper lever and cut it with a little slack and there you go perfect length everytime.

Great video, I’ve put plenty of tires on backwards.you just get excited and don’t pay attention. Also I just got today my first fox 34 kashima coated fork put it on my Santa Cruz 5010. Looks sweeeet. But when I was installing it I put a old blanket under bike just in case I drop something 😂. Your bike is sweeet also. Enjoy.

I have an old 1997 Stumpjumper and it still rides amazing

C-bass first thing in the morning? Let's get this weekend started! Congrats on the upgrade man, you deserve it!

This guy is the best his mountain bike is nearly

You are a joy to watch my guy 🔥🔥

Stoked for you man! You have to do that in pink like the cover photo 🤘🏻

Nice reference man! SaaaamP!

Can we get a t-shirt with you holding a t handle Allen wrench, giving the ok symbol with your fingers, and a quote saying "torqued to spec".

Gorgeous rig, mate!

As a bike mech ..this vid hurt my soul (lol) and made me laugh.. Well played sir!

sick bike bro i wish u had a good day

Can’t wait to see riding videos! This bike is on my radar for me and I’m a “big” guy as well so really looking forward to your reviews!!

ahahahahahah those hits to the frame and fork got me in tears xD

Really enjoyed watching that! Well done mate 👍✌️

Favorite part of the whole video, you ask?! The incognito “stick”stand at the end lol, well done brother, sick build!!!

Picked up a status 160, and here in Alaska trails here not ready til end of May June, bike has gon thru alot of parts changes 😅 sikk bike build my dude 🤙🔥

Yo sick video! I highlyyy recommend butcher front tire and eliminator rear trust bro

Bruh just got a new bike as well!!! Hyped for you can’t wait to rip out this seazzzzz

I thought for sure it was going to be an Specialized Hotwalk

Ever though if riding a bike with a lower leverage ratio on the suspension? I am a large gentlemen my self and oh lord it makes a difference. I had a stumpy and running max PSI was no bueno

As I sit next to my bike by the water with my coffee. My Fox 36 smiled at me when you said that... lol

Your “real-ness” or NRML-ness is so refreshing.👍😉

I just upgraded from my Costco $399 bike to this bike. What a jump! I feel blessed I was able to do it… went for my first ride today; I felt like I was flyin with it! Chewed up everything and asked for more 😂

I'm sure you're gonna love this bike. I'm in completely in love with mine, never gonna sell it (lie)

Nice bike! stop beating it up lol

The full fox suspension setup is sooo sick

Last year I upgraded my base stumpjumper to elite specs, your gonna love it !!

Congratulations on your new bike

Lovin your videos man! The Black Jack of MTBs! Keep sendin' ! ❤

Considering your size, I think your dream bike would be an e-bike.

Hahahahaha.... I haven't laughed this much watching a YT video! So entertaining... and I felt like I was watching myself! The ooh, aah at the Deity bar and color match... the OCD of lining up the specialized logo on the tire with the valve... so entertaining and I felt as much joy in watching as you probably had in assembling the bike! Great stuff... liked, subscribed! Ride on and tail winds!

“You guys think about things too much”. Best line ever 😂

to be honest.. you're better than all the bike mechanics in my hometown.. even with all those bike hits no joke

Hay man when are you going to do a ride review. Im buying a bike mid january ans this us top of the list. I had a kona processes 153 2021 and loved it. Im also a big guy so your the only one i see doing decent reviews for big guys.

Man I just discovered this Chanel super fun ! Good job dude !

have mines coming soon, but i wont be riding it as ill be cleaning it, ceramic coating it then applying frame protection. i went with the race face kashima handlebar, stem and pedals. so will see how well it matches. like to see a video on your thoughts when riding, granted my trails are mostly flat in my area unless i travel a few hours away.

That’s pilgrims intro !!

Picked up a really nice niner rip9 RDO..bike is unbelievable.

5:00 this makes me anti-regret putting carpet under my bike stand

Yoooooo love the bike just got the same one 😂

You dropped the KASHIMAAAA nooooooo!! Hahaha!!!!

I'm really interested in this bike and I'm a big guy too. Hoping to see a review video

Hey!!!! I ride the same bike!!! Converted it to a mullet and love it!!!

Bro. I've been a subscriber since April 2016 I love your style of Comedy. Dude I smashed my back rim and derailleur I was wondering if maybe you have anything lying around that I could buy from you. Did I realize you're not a bike shop put until you have so much stuff and I work a minimum wage b******* job. I'm a super fan keep the funny stuff up.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who put the tire on the wrong way after installing cush core 😂😂😂. Also, we're so lucky to live in one of the most beautiful places in the world (California), but this rain fuck right off.

The accidental Sam Reynolds intro 😂. Gorgeous bike, I was considering this over my Nukeproof mega, but even on sale the specialized prices are crazy

Dropping the fork on the ground isn't nearly as bad as Sam Pilgrim spray painting a brand new fork or grinding the burrs off the steer tube on the sidewalk.

Got the homies PDX pedals on there! I got the same bronze ones 🔥🤘🏼

I think you may like the Sensus Meaty Paw grips

ROFL! Wrong directional tyre, had that moment before!😂

Love the EVOs

that bike is a beast. congrats!

3:00 pov it’s first day having your new bike

i like your bike bro…wish i can afford that one

I love how this video reminds me of setting up a new bike/upgrades with my buddies. Putting the tire on the wrong way happens every time even though it's a 50/50 chance. 😅

Excited for bike park season

so sick mate!! keen to do some vids with you one day

Have an evo alloy elite as well. Super capable bike.

Dudee you should totally put and Fox x2 factory on there, ive heard they are really good on that new stumpy

Such a nice bike!

Love an Asymmetric frame ❤

I was click baited I was really excited for that bike to be pink

make sure to hit the dmr grips with a mallet so they're on properly

@00:06 seriously perfectly made 🤣🥰🤣 I want a t shirt with this Not pink so ?

you fckng stress me out when you drop that fork dammit hahahaha

Sana All...😁😁

Go mullet!!

Watching you build a bike it’s like watching a toddler bake a cake 😂 😂😂

The fork falling out 😳

nice :) thanks

Nice one dude, I'm still riding stumpy alloy elite 2015 never getting rid of it !! What pedals you use my feet are 13.5 I can't find fitting pedals all feeling small🙄

Sick bike!

i stil ride my 09 stumpjumper fsr comp, its a wonderful bike.

I was wondering when you started to mount T9 on the rear))

Nice! I just picked up a Stumpy Evo Pro on sale. Luckily local shop had one in stock and I didn’t have to assemble 😂

Mint

How is the bike holding up? Any longterm review?

the sam pilgrim intro

This is my dream bike

I would have gotten this instead of my Trek Fuel EX 8 Gen 6 if the sale started at the beginning of march since that's when I got my bike. Has a mid range drive train and a very good suspension but still Alloy which I prefer. Though probably has a little more travel than I want in an all around mountain bike. This one is getting a little to close to an Enduro bike. Grat's on your bike I'm jealous. Looks like your learning how to work on mtb's the same way as I do lol.

Awesome...cheers 🇨🇦

looks sick af ...

0:13 Its crack a monny o'clock!

Epic

This bike is on sale now for 4199.00. Save heaps !

Sick I love specialized

is no one gonna mention the fact that the frame colour is pink in the thumbnail 😫

Where are the trails that u ride at? I know you go to Stafford but I don’t know where else u go. I am looking for new spots to ride at and the places you go look sick. Love your content man.
