Today, we flip our first full suspension mountain bike. At first this looked like a really good deal, but we found quite a few correctable problems with the bike. Join us for some repairs we have certainly not done yet, on this episode of Flip Bike!

It's not just the price. It's also the fact that the work was well documented, and I'm sure it would have had a higher price if it was done at a LBS. I think your reputation goes a long way when it comes to buying a reconditioned bike from you.

For anyone who works on things like this regularly, here's a tip. If you need to buy a bearing, check out the price of 10 or 20, it's often only about double or triple just buying one. If you buy in bulk every time you need a different size bearing, you'll find soon enough that you already have the one you need in stock and don't have to wait around for shipping!

Love the flip bike series, but you need to tell us how much time you spent on servicing the bike. I think it would be really helpful to know but also as time goes on you can keep timing yourself to see how fast you can flip some bikes. Then try to set time records or something for fun.

I wish I could say for sure, but when filming things it takes several times as long. If I was alone with my head down doing these repairs the whole build would only take a morning. We're moving cameras, planning things out, re-arranging, changing batteries, etc so it's a few days of work.

Having fun and a properly serviced bike are the most important things, no matter how old, heavy or maybe weird they are!

I'm certain that the DualControl levers didn't come with the thumb paddle originally, but Shimano added them after complaints from shops. I have two bikes with them, and I like them, though the reservoir design on the XTs is pretty bad compared to the XTRs. One narrower riser bars you don't have much room to move the XTs inboard.

I had the XT version and after getting used to them they worked fine until something in the right shifter bent. The bike shop and me couldn't repair it. I turned the bike into a singlespeed (with proper brake levers) and ride it every day to work and the grocery store.

I still have, to this day, a mtb perfectly fonctionnal in my parents' garage with Shimano LX V-brakes "brifters". And the most ridiculous thing about all this is I remember buying them on purpose 15 years ago to upgrade my bike ! It works well, but it's atrocious to change speed while braking. It happens really more often than you think...

Hi Seth. I really want a dirt jumper to use as a jump bike. Would you think a dirt jumper would work also for winter riding? Love your videos!!

Depends, if you want to ride snow, definitely not, if you want to ride hard pack stuff in the winter, then your own gear and clothing will be what holds you back

I reckon you should get a giant STP because it has dirt jump geometry, 26” wheels and a shimano deore 10 speed so that it still pedals better than a single speed

i wouldn’t recommend a dirt jumper for winter riding or “trail” riding because of the hardcore geometry and the stiff suspension. but if your an average rider and you want to get into riding i would recommend if you do get a dirt jumper make sure it has and air fork because then you can adjust how stiff it is.

12kg is a bit too much for a chest mount, i'd recommend some kind of cargo setup on the bike itself

I agree, even with and e-bike, your dog may be too heavy for a chest holder unless you are some kind of giant. I'm not sure how a full size French Bulldog would like being held like that either. Dog trailers do exist and are cool but maybe a rack above the rear wheel would be something to consider. Good luck!

Thanks for the help guys, after looking into it a trailer is probably the best way to go with most of my riding being on flat ground,, I may look a fool but I'm sure me little man will enjoy getting out with me again 👍
