Summer tyres, aweful in mud and winter months. Does not grip or clear mud xx

Quality.I used to 'darts' pinched together to get them 'blank' screws out...Ha!!

Sticky Ricky

Would 10 mm length be ok? Or is just the 12 one good?

I want both and cant afford any😂... Good vid 👌

Great video sir. Is that the REKON 29x2.6 3c maxxspeed exo TR? never knew it exist, all i can found online is the maxxterra version.

nice but honestly I don't understand why would anyone need this or buy a higher model just for the toolless reach adjustment....it's not like your fingers grow big during the ride ;o] it's pretty much set it and forget it thing so once it's set to your preferrence you never touch it again

how long are the m4 screws that you replace the cap screws with?

So shimano has a lazy naming scheme. Having both a reel and a bike named the same...

The real hack here is improvising the tool bit. You wouldn't need to replace the standard plug once you have the proper bit.

I didn’t feel any resistance in my right lever. Screws going very deep now. Doe this mean I damaged my lever?

Amazing tire, I use it as a front even on my old 26er for "xc" 😂 👌

Well, did it an i didn't see or felt any change. Lever moved but to the same position and the same contact point. In general, to remove a screw and fit new one with the same length to the same position, what can be changed? On the XT this is an adjustable screw, here, what the use? Do i miss something here?

Works slightly. I only got about 10mm of lever travel before turning the bolt got harder (and I decided not to go further). Actually, I didn't see much difference to the hand ajustable srew around the other side of the brake lever mechanism. Oh well, worth a shot.

how long that screw should be?

I’m using a rekon for the front and DHF 2 for rear. I do desert loose over hard pack type riding and it seems to work well. 2.4 each.

собираюсь приобрести эти обода 421 для трассы и бездорожья , леса.!!

🤘🏼

Hi mate after some help.. just purchased this bike and hasn’t came with owners manual.. do you know where and how I could get one? Need to find out how long charging time is etc… Many Thanks Rik

I got Cube Stereo Hybrid 120 SLT 2023, which came with these tyres: _Hans Dampf 29x2,6'' Supertrail/Speedgrip/Evo (Black)_ . Scwalbe gives it 6 stars for rolling (of 10) . Normally it comes with Smart Sam 29x2,6'' Performance Folding (Black) . Scwalbe gives it 4 stars for rolling (of 10) . Smart Sam looks better rolling, but suprisingly is not, according to the company. Wicked Will SuperRace/Speedgrip 29x2,4'' has 8 stars for rolling Seems strange, when comparing to Hurricane 29x2,25'', which has 4,5 stars at best. Do you have any info about this kind of rollings stuff? To me both seem a bit of overkill, I mostly wanted the suspension for comfort, maybe a bit of gravel rroads, (gravel) trails, *but mostly just asphalt* . Im bit afraid of the rolling properties of these kind of wheels. Ive had MTBs earlier, but without E-motor, and smaller wheel sizes.

Part Nr. Y8VC98070 Shimano Deore XT BL-M8000 Stroke Adjust Screw & Shim 0.3mm

So the screw size is M4*12?

Late to the party but I’ll mention this since nobody else has.. the reason you can’t get the screw in any further is because there is a piece inside that will fall out of place once the screw is fully removed. The only way to properly re-insert any screw is to lift that piece into position while turning the screw in and this can’t be done without taking the brake lever apart fully. People are ruining their brakes by turning the newly inserted screw too far because it’s wedging up against a part that it should be passing underneath.

Maxxis Recon Icon or CST tires?

Thanks, just bought a pair of them for my e-bike 👌👍

Use tires with the most grip in the front. All of your combinations have the softer compound tire in the rear

Thank you for sharing. I run Hans Dampf and Nobby Nick with the softer Trail compound on my trail bike here in Denmark. Our trails are relatively flat and not enduro, so HD/NN are great for that purpose. I have a wheelset with Magic Mary/Hans Dampf for Enduro and DH and that works great! Thank you for a good video :)

Needle bearing 😂

More like making the starting point closer to the bite point, cause the bite point doesn’t change position sadly

Why not ditch the music so we don't struggle to hear what you're saying?

Done!!!! Thank you brother 👍

eww a 1x.

I would use a screw as close to the look of the XT one as possible. But a nice feature to have at no extra cost. I can see why people mix and match components considerable savings can be had with no performance lost with the right mix of components. XTR bearing jockey wheels can be used on the M6100 derailleur as a bit of a hack. 😎👍

I prefer the Maxxis Dissector to the Recon for the front tire. It rolls great while still providing the cornering control the Ardent does not have.

Hi. On my fun montainbike I have the NN front and rear. Just bought a spare pare for it of MM front and BB rear. I'm not a pro, so for my daily montainbike, that has the 2,25 Smart Sam, I want to try the HD super trail 2,35 addix soft on rear, and Rocket Ron super race 2,35 addix speed on front. I don't know what I'm doing... 🤣🤣🤣 Maybe as a spare pare for this one, I will try the R Ray front and R Ralph rear. Cheers...

Hi guys, I bought a couple of Vittoria tires for my bike a couple of weeks ago. MEzcal and Barzo. They roll really well. But now I decided to get a new bike, it comes next week, and the tires are the Hans Dampf... :( They look like great tires for mud, but I like low rolling resistance, and I ride mostly in dry conditions, so I believe there is no need for the Hans Dampf. What do you guys think? Thanks

What happens when you break the mechanism? I have the screw all the way in and I didn't really notice the adjustment. I did hear what may have been plastic breaking, but it really didn't take much pressure at all for that to happen. Did I just lose the ability to adjust or something worse?

I tried your hack with a M4 12mm screw that I paid 50 cent at a hardware store near home. I don't think that anyone is supposed to insert a screw more than 10mm in, because past that point you risk breaking the mechanism. The fact that the Shimano XT brake has a 10mm and the same exact structure (correct me if I'm wrong), is a pretty big tell imo. I think that the your hack should only be used for people that want to have MORE free stroke. I watched some other disassembly videos and I think my theory is correct. I can even see the stock screw pushing the piston, it seems all the way, with a plastic thing. I decided to revert back to the stock screw because I like the minimum free stroke and I don't want to risk breaking the lever while trying to reach the maximum point with a longer screw. On that note, do you know we can buy the replacement plastic part that is pushed by the screw, in the case it gets broken? The replacement is fairly easy.

Will this work on Deore M6100 brakes?

Nice job

Why not mixing vendors? I.e. rekon back hans dampf front? Cheers

What was your long term assessment of this cassette would you still recommend it ?

Thanks for the vid - can you tell me what brand is your bike stand..? Looks cool.. thanks..

Nice one! I’ve just installed the xt screws into my slx brakes levers.

does the 2.35 rear you mentioned has the same inner diameter rim as your 2.6 front?

does this work with the newer BL 7100 lever ? anyone tried?

Just done it on my Zee levers. Works a treat 👍🏻

Unfortunately, in maxxiss line up, only the rekon offers plus size specifically 27.5x2.8

You never hang a bike in a bike stand from the dropper post

Did this issue ever get sorted by Canyon as I don't see your update
