People who watch this channel obviously don't have the destroy sh*t gene. I watch because I like to see things restored and treated properly. I personally find it abhorrent to not take care of something l worked hard to buy. You've laid out a rich buffet of comment potential and then tell us not to say anything! I am so conflicted😂

But when you think about it, they had to put a vast amount of miles on this bike to wear it out this much. It's a sign that it was ridden hard, which is better than staying at home or keeping the bike in a shed gathering dust! Bikes are serviceable, better to use and abuse them than to baby them

Some people buy overpriced expensive shit like carbon bicycles without understanding they will also be a pain in the ass that needs way more maintenance. Bicycles are just like cars, the more expensive, the more expensive is to keep it going, and you see all the time poor people saving money to buy a second hand luxury car because they dont understand what a bottomless money pit they are getting into

I overhauled my own 2017 Giant Propel a few months back. I can attest, as a newly qualified mechanic, that it took me about 10 days to sort it out. Replacing the cables was an absolute pig of a job, and I don't mind admitting that it became so frustrating at one point that I almost took a hammer to the frame.😂 I'm still not 100% satisfied with the gears, but I can't afford to spend more on it right now, so it'll have to do.

@yonglingng5640 3 ай бұрын

What's still not right with the shifting?

@antunmcmagnais8856 3 ай бұрын

@yonglingng5640 I suspect two issues, both of which would mean buying even more new components. Firstly, the rear derailleur cage might be slightly bent, and secondly, the outer front chain ring appears to have a slight kink at one particular point as it revolves. Basically, I had quite a nasty crash when my rear cassette failed, and despite replacing the freehub and cassette, they're still not working as well as I'd like.

Makes me wonder about the design and quality of components in modern bikes. On this bike the headset bearings were shot, the bottom bracket had already been replaced and it appears to be a pain to thread cables through the frame. On my 2005 Tarmac Pro all I've replaced is consumables. The headset and group set including the bottom bracket are all original and in perfect working order after 20 years. Still, it was great to see you do a first class service.
