Love this guy!!

You made a very smart decision selling those Reynolds, it's a bit like i9's warranty is top notch but you shouldn't change bearings and axles that often at this price...

Much to expensive. is this NASA technology ? No.

I've been using this guide for a couple of years to adjust the b-tension screw on my XT 12-speed. Recently I changed the chain after it reached 0,75% wear, only to notice that the b-tension was all out of whack. This was set up by the manufacturer after I received it back from maintenance where they changed casette and chain. Note that it was shifting perfectly. So after I put the new chain to lengh, making sure to put it on correctly (with the imprinted text to the outside), same for the quick-link I set up the b-tension to the indicated line (derailleur was much to high). Since then I cannot get it to shift good anymore; there are a couple of spots on the casette (from gear 5 to 6, most notable) that 1 out of 3 shifts, the shifting will go very clunky (also loud noise), and when pedalling it will feel like it's missing a buch of gears (pedals will fly forward). Now for the time being I have returned the b-tension screw somewhat to it's old position; shifting is better/quicker, but there are still some problem spots. Any clues before I bring it back to the bike shop? (I really like to do maintenance myself however)

Can’t you use flat washer to build up the width either side?

Try the 2mm thick discs they won’t flex and bend

Just wondering how the SRAM chain works so well with the XTR cassette if the chains are designed to work with the ramps of the cassette from their own brand.

Ny newest xc hardtails has 30 mm wide wheels and 29x2,40 tires front and back

Nice bike! Really sweet with that XTR rear mech and 45 tooth cassette, gotta be strong indeed! Congrats on new bike and greeting from the Netherlands!

Hello legend, congratulations on this beautiful bike! Bike really looks amazing and all it’s parts are top levele as I can see. As for Shimano rotors, I had exact the same situation with them, even XTR rotors are making “turkey noise” and if break harder they will rub. I mean on brand new 180mm rotors. So I turned to Galfer and they are awesome, no rubbing no noise and they break better and harder, wear is minimal. I can see you have HT M2 pedals, I am considering to get them. I had M8100 but don’t know how but it seams they bearings and bearing races are made of lead. Now I am on Look X track race and they are fine bit they have one flaw, you have to buy special tool to open the pedal. Working on solution to that problem.

They didn't sale the frame only right now.

beautiful bike

Why do you prefer mechanical over axs?

Congrats on the new bike! The color looks really good. Sounds like you'll break even with everything you sold haha!

Great video thank you.

This was good and useful, to show a line of tools and discuss the trade offs. I guess I'm rare in that I'd rather have a stand alone chain tool, like the Pedro's multifunction one and a simpler multitool like the M10 you showed with longer tools or even just a fold out set of Allen keys and another of Torx that I also would use at home. For a flat and Phillips bit I'd use a folding knife that has those on it or just a small two way screwdriver. However the M10 may make more sense in terms of weight and size to carry with you. I just like the dual use aspect of home and road use. I'd also consider a Leatherman type tool. Some Leatherman type tools can take bits, in which case I'd consider just carrying the bits my bike needs and using the Leatherman to drive them, most likely with their bit extension. I already own a Skeletool so I'd just need their extension and some standard 1/4" bits for my bike as I don't care for Leatherman's half width bits. You also get a serious knife and pliers this way. For countries with restrictive knife laws maybe the Leatherman Bond is a better choice. Same idea though...or the knifeless Rebar... I find the thin double ended 8 & 10mm wrench/spanner a reasonable tool to carry as well, it's thin and light and those sizes abound. If one has a backpack anyway I find a small adjustable wrench with larger thinner jaws worthy of being carried but that's a pretty big step up and maybe it's just better at that point to get an Alien bike tool, the old one or the new one? A lot of tools in a relatively small package.

excellent tips. thank you!

Campagnolo is still the best gears!

Great idea!! I’ve been evaluating a lot of different ideas and this looks best. Very simple to make and easy to use.

Am using this wax, works perfect for me. So whats wrong with it? I don't understand. If you want clean chain and cassette. Stop riding then.

SRAM Lately is garbage. SX, NX are garbage. In comparison to Shimano Deore M5120 Derrailleur + M7100 SLX Crankset, 10 speed HG 11-46. Got into an accident with a car and the derrailleur bended a little and it is still going after 10,000.00 kms where a friend of mine has bought 3 NX Cassettes, 2 NX Derailleurs in the same period of time ( almost 4 years.) Shimano all day everyday.

This video saved a marriage. 😂 But seriously, thank you! I'm now laughing at how many hours my husband and I spent trying to figure out the issue with my bike.

This was crazy helpful! Thank you!

My Pulleys didn't have arrows but those three dots in the middle. So these dots should be visible from the outer side? I build them in to the inner side. Have a M8130 Linkglide derailleur that I cleaned today but i don't know how they were in there because of too much dirt. My old Pulleys are worn out, the chain jumps off the T-Pulley i ordered new ones to change them asap.

The original pulleys are a piece of shite. I don't understand why they use this nylon thing. Sunrace has an alloy version, which is a good tuning option for everyone.

Las Maxxis Aspen son buenísimas además si las usa N1NO SCHURTER, eso me dice que son geniales, saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷🇦🇷

Thank youuuu for sharing this 🎉

Dude, the music! Ugh!

Thanks to your detailed explanation video, I performed hub maintenance for the first time today. In fact, this is the first maintenance in 14 years. Now that I have learned it, I will maintain it once a year. Thank you again to mu Hub and Your.

The Alivio RD-M 4000 can be confusing in this respect .

what a great video,, you must be doing pilates or some kind of mental training. Even by watching your video I get nervous 🤣

The reason why I put Shimano over SRAM is because SRAM put out the SX drivetrain! The largest pile of rubbish I have ever tried in my life! Shimano budget drivetrain is the Shimano Deore which is a very good drivetrain for the price. I have since upgraded my drivetrain to the XT I have thousands of miles on it. The only thing I’ve had to change is the chain other than that it’s sheer perfection.

Excellent video for those looking to do the job correctly. I deep clean my road bike's 12 speed cassette and always take the cassette apart slowly, and install it slowly and carefully.

Aftermarket pulleys often come in all size and with GX + cups options...

Can I upgrade my altus M2000 pulley to bearings pulleys?

I have shimano. Makes me want to closely compare and measure xt vs slx.

Your videos are excellent. Thanks.

I hate these vertical videos

Sorry Sick Biker. XT and ZEE on my bikes. I've been thinking about trying BOX though.

Strong words

Can the axle be inter changeable? Mine has the lock on the brake side and now it is hard to remove it

What is the oil that you put 6ml of at the end onto the bolt holes?

Excellent vid, thanks mate.
