I will say, this video has single handedly saved me on every service I have completed on my Yeti SB 150. Thanks for such an informative video and a special thank you for including all the torque ratings

I've noticed you're not making video's any longer. Selfishly I wish you'd start again. These are my go-to video's because of how clear and to the point they are.

Getting my SB150 ready for the new riding season and this will be my first full tear down of the linkage. Saving this video for reference if I need it.

Watched the whole video and I don't even have a Yeti.....yet. Thanks for the great info!!

just did my first full teardown on the sb130. this video really helped with the switch - thanks!!!!

Great Vid, extremely useful. Tip not mentioned is male bolt for the linkage may require a hammer to remove. I used a 10 mm hex wrench pushed against a 10 mm socket to pound it out from the other side. It would not move at all. Reading comments, seems like others have had a similar problem. Thinking Yeti should have made a larger diameter tunnel in the frame.

Thanks for posting this, man! Love the way you recorded and commented it.

Good video, quick and to the point, good audio quality and explanation.

Nice video. I've been servicing the SI since I bought my SB130 late last year but haven't done a tear-down on the upper linkage yet. I never knew about the guide pins so I just ordered one from Yeti, that should make my life a lot easier.

A video teaching how to service the pivots on a yeti asr will be so helpful 🙏🤞🤙...thanks

Just got a new sub, great videos super clear and amazing video quality. Cheers dude!.

Excellent video. My next project. Thanks

Great music for this video man.

Thank you for these videos. They are very helpful. I like the music but think it is a tiny bit loud. I paid the 30 (less my first time order as a Yeti owner 25% discount) for the grease and matching gun.

Thank you for this one.

This was great and super helpful, thanks.

Thanks for the infomation.. It was a big problem for me, who owns the SB5.

Great video, well done!

Very good video

Very helpful guide! Cheers

Very informative. Thank you.

Thank you.....I'll gather the tools and try my luck.

Good video thanks

Thanks for this video. The SB130 manual says to apply Loctite to the Main Pivot Collet Bolt, looks like you did grease?

Great helpful video, that makes this process simple. For me it would have been slightly easier to hear without the music.

Hi I buy a yeti last week sb100 what Caine a grease can I use and it's the same Nm to my yeti thanks nice video God bless you 👍🖐 I'm from San Diego California

I feel the local craft beer falls under "necessary" tools.

Well thought out and executed video with very clear info thanks!

Wondering if you had suggestions for collar axel that does not thread out when I do this maintenance for my yeti sb4.5c? When I unscrew the collar axel, it pushes the nut on the drive side out of the frame instead of coming out. Used a rubber mallet as suggested by another u-tuber. Worked good on the upper collar axel to the dog bone but not the lower one connected to the switch infinity. Appreciate any suggestions. Thanks

Awesome video I have a 140 on the way but just the c1 build. Will you be doing videos on shock and fork set up. Even though mine I ant the factory I’m sure it will be the same principle

So Iv been servicing my link and just realised I don’t have any of the spacers for the link??? It’s an sb140, should I be worried or did they stop using the spacers after a certain age. Thanks 🤘🏻

Hi! Greetings from Finland! Thanks a lot for your really helpful videos! Just one question concerning the SI service: which RRP adaptor kit (RRP code) do you use with your SB150?

i have a 2018 yeti sb130 frame i sourced for a really good price. i still need the rear triangle any idea where i could find a used one?

How would you go about removing bearing from the SI link?

Excellent point, IBL. Even if repacking bearings extends their life, it's best not to make it a mandatory maintenance step in a public forum in which warranty issues could be in play.

Awesome video. What make of grease gun are you using and what type of geese please

After replacing my seat stay bearings one inner race seems to stick through slightly further than the other. Is this something to worry about?

Is the wedge bolt necessary? I bought a used sb150 and it doesn’t have one

How can I order the long screwto push the other one's

Where did you get the guide pins?

Is that a normal bearing or is it like Yeti specific? Edit: The bearing on the infinity link thingy.

I've just changed the DPX2 for an X2 on a SB130, did find it a struggle to align the the shock extender to the sock? When I'm tightening the bolt it feels like I'm cross threading the bolt. Did you have the same issues? Excellent video by the way. Thanks

Agreed that the switch pivot bearings should not be removed, but these are not sealed bearings (unlike the dogbone link bearings, which are sealed and cannot be serviced), so they will dry out if not repacked. Yeti recommends replacing the bearings every year so of course does not recommend repacking. If they are regularly spun and repacked, they will last many years.

Can you link to cassette tool and the grease needed? Also I have a 2019 sb6. I assume process is similar.

it would be great if you could show pulling all the bearings (including SI) and pressing in new ones.

I am having trouble removing the main pivot bolt. I have tried tapping it lightly with a hammer but have had no luck. Any idea what I could do to remove it?

Very good video well explained cheers buddy like step by step where no rush like other videos on KZfaq subscribe to you now 👍🇬🇧🚒

Will be ok do this service every year or two? And just using the grease every 30 rides without remove the system will be fine? Any problems with muddy days and the switch infinity sistem? Thanks

Fyi. On sb150 and sb165 you can access the rear grease port without removing the main pivot bolt... Remove shock and rear wheel and swing the rear triangle upwards

Do you use alcohol, brake pads cleaner or any cleaning, degreesing fluid?

Do both sides of the infinity like spin?

Is that a Specialized water bottle cage? The infamy!😀

Is this the same process for a 2016 Sb5? Just to grease and service the si link and stanchions?

Do you have any advice how to remove the main pivot in an easy way? 3 out of 4 times the bolt is stucked inside the frame and I need to use a sledgehammer to carefully remove the bolt. Every time I reinstall the bolt, after greasing my Switch Infinity, I use some grease for the bold and clean off everything. But the bolt still stuck the next time I want to remove it.

do you usually clamp the frame?

Where do you get that guide pin?

Assuming the upper linkage should be torqued to 15nm also?? You skipped it

Great bike , rides smooth kzfaq.infoUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L I added a bigger spring loaded seat to it . Takes a bit of adjusting cables to get brakes and shifting to perfect . I've owned quite a few bikes in the past that were absolutely uncomfortable to ride and they always ended up as garage wall decor . I'm not seeing that with this one. It's pretty light I've only ridden it a few miles but I like it . As for the pedals falling off in the other reviews , the pedal arms are aluminum along with the pedal studs look to be also . I would not overtighten them. I can see it would be very easy to overtighten them and strip the threads right off . All in all I think it's pretty good quality besides the aluminum pedal thing .

dude you didn't even clean the bearing while you had everything out? also a better idea is to get some suspension cleaner and to spray out the infinity link, stanchions, seals, and everything before wiping down with a microfiber. this way you remove all of the grime and grit before wiping anything.

Now I know why this bike is so expensive 😅

He forgot to repack the switch bearings, which is essential when servicing the infinity link. Remove the black circular rings around the pivot bolt and pack the bearings with molybdenum (lithium base) grease.

Your not cleaning your while servicing bro.

What a pain in the ass

clamp your stand on the dropper, not your frame ya joey

Whats the point of this vid when you blocked the most important thing you want to watch in the first place?
