You have a great taste for watches!!!
Thank you!🧡⌚️
I wish you were local to me.... I have never seen a shop in USA (I worked in a few) that does what you do.... the cleaning alone is far beyond what the US shop does.
The price follows though...
@@Leviathandk What is the cost?
@@Leviathandk Maintanance is always way cheaper (and much less wastefull) than buying new. Keep this in mind when talking about prices. Theres pretty much no difference in cost for the mechanic when you take off the parts, clean them and put it all back together, compared to replacing (for example a rear deraillurer) with new parts. The price for the new parts is where it get's ugly. Think about the production process; an aluminium plant easily needs the same amount of energy, a larger city needs, so that's where it get's hefty.
@@rainerunsinn4808 I agree..
I'm a bike mechanic in denmark. Im thinking about doing something like this, here. The places i've worked it just seems almost all customers only want the bare minimum done.
@@Leviathandk Absolutely wish you the best with with that! Yes I know absolutely what you are talking about, but I think "we" have to take responsibilty for this too. A lot of mechanics feel most comfortable when they can hide somewhere in the back of their workshop, having little to none contact with the actual customer. On the other hand, sometimes you get the feeling, the person on the counter of bicycle shops might as well sell you a washing machine the next day somewhere else. A good amount of customers don't know much about bikes, but they have an understanding of service quality. And I think this is also the reason why these videos from bikespeeds are so popular, even to non mechanics, because ( I think it is safe to say) most of us have never seen a shop getting this involved into servicing bikes.
I have a 2015 Cayo Carbon, has been a great frame for thousands of miles.
BTW, update just retired the frame, has probably 18,000 miles on it. it is now hanging up as wall art.
Enjoying the channel, greetings from Nova Scotia
Thanks for watching Chris!🧡🇨🇦
A lot of spacers😄
Yes there was!🧡
4:38 I love that applicator stand you have so that you can quickly switch from one lubricant type to another depending on the need, and then apply loctite for reassembly. Necessity is the mother of all invention.
This is something we’re trialing to hopefully sell!🧡⚙️
I love my Focus Cayo 2012 XL Red20 with 7.2kg.
Clicking a torque wrench in a bolt that is done up already only checks if its undertightened. Overtight bolts won't show up. Worth bearing in mind.
Several issues that were solved by an expert in his field. Great explanation of what was necessary to get the bike ready. Merry Christmas to Bikespeeds!!
Merry Christmas! We have a bit of a “special” coming this Wednesday for Christmas 🧡⚙️
Super nice bike, I have 2 Focus bikes😊👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome! This one is for you then 🧡
The spoke tension diagram is too cool. Loved this long video and your work. Comment for the Lord Algo.
We feel the love, thanks as always 🧡⚙️
Gentlemen, brilliant attention to detail. Thanks for taking the time to post.
Memphis, TN, USA
Our pleasure! Its comments like this that make it worth it. Thanks very much🧡⚙️
I’ve got a Focus so even more reason for a like..........👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome! This one was up your street then🧡
wonderful work
Thank you!🧡
Hi Lee, love the videos! It would be ace if you could do one of your full services in a step by step format at normal speed so we could follow along at home, cheers👍🏻
I've now caught up on all the service videos! And greetings from Tasmania Australia.
Greetings newson!🧡⚙️
awesome job guys.!!
Thank you!🧡⚙️
A few minutes ago I was wondering when the new video will come up! Thank you for another amazing video!
Little late but we got there in the end!🧡
Sorry, I have to comment (always like 😉) Im constantly amazed at how many components you bring back to life. Im sure you could easily upsell more new components to the customer. 🙌😎🇫🇮
We always appreciate the comments each week! The support is what keeps us going so thanks as always Dean🧡
The Focus and last weeks Giant looked similar in the thumbnail, thought this was a repeat at first !
Yes they do lol, nearly at two years now no repeats so far 😂🧡
Great work again!
Thanks Scott🧡⚙️
Really do appreciate your videos. By carrying out thorough servicing you have a chance to discover previously unknown defects, the broken spoke is a case in point. Have a great Christmas. Look foreward to the next video.
Next video is a Christmas special if you like, a big vintage rebuild 🧡⚙️
Your videos are so relaxing!
So much grease! That front derailleur is going to be a ball of grinding paste in a hundred kms.
Great transformation, appreciate the commentry as to what is being done and any issues encounted. Thanks, Dave, Mooloolaba, QLD Aussieland
Thanks for watching Dave! We appreciate your support🧡⚙️
Satisfying seeing the clean up.
Quality service as always guys 👍
Thanks Brian!🧡⚙️
Thank you Lee and Simon. Always great content.
Thanks Rodney!🧡
It’s not surprising that a man as meticulous as you would have an affinity for watches.
satisfying to watch
Thanks Ben!🧡⚙️
What's the brand name of the cables you use please ?
Great show as ever chaps.
Having difficulty with my rim brakes at the moment (bought cheap cables !!) please can you let me know the make of the " super slick " cables you mention in your shows.
Going to give them a try.
Many thanks in anticipation of your reply.
regards
Mark
Hi Mark, these are a trade cable we buy in bulk, however I’m sure a google search will help you find whatever version of a “super slick” cable is available near you🧡
It's such a shame your shop is so far away from me, every city should have a bikespeeds shop.
Maybe one day! Thanks for watching🧡⚙️
@@Bikespeeds I never heard of a bike shop (not a retailer) that does franchising before. Way to go ;) ?
👍
Another great restoration.
Thanks for the support!🧡⚙️
I often see you use several types of lubricants, it goes pretty fast. I'd like to ask or suggest a video where you educate us on the different types of greases and oils you use and their purpose. I just cleaned up a bike where the owner used WD-40 for everything, and I mean everything. Love your videos
We have done a video on this a while ago. The videos a bit outdated in terms of production now but the information is all there 🧡⚙️
Awesome job guys I have a cayo and love it and mainly use it for turbo work 👍👍
This was the perfect video for you then!🧡
Just wished you would move to Devon 🤣🤣👍👍
Another fine service. Will there be tinsel next week? :-)
There will be no tinsel though we definitely have a special episode coming!…🧡⚙️
Hi thanks for your videos, really enjoy them each week, have you details of the super slick inner cables you use and and where they can be obtained from, thanks
Thanks! We are soon launching a website just over a month from now and will be selling them on there so stay tuned till then🧡⚙️
This bike was really easy to assemble th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and required very few adjustments out of the box. The wheels did not require any truing/adjustments. The frame had some small scratches, but nothing major.I did replace the seat though - the seat it came with was very uncomfortable. The tires need to be re-inflated every 4-5 days, but this appears to be quite common for the narrow 700x25 tires.Overall, in my opinion, this bike looks and rides like a much more expensive bike.
The degreaser isnt being forced into cage spring area?
You put the Pro in Professional
Thanks very much!🧡
Hi, love the video's. Could you share what program you use for the spoke diagram?
I wonder if there were any peculiarities to this bike service, knowing it's going on the turbo? Or did you just treat it like any outdoors bike? Happy Christmas Gents, all the very best to you
Not at all really. Many of the things we did, we didn’t need to do for it to just go on the turbo but you don’t get less of a service just because it’s going to be turbo so we treated it as normal, Merry Christmas to you too!🧡
@@Bikespeeds Turbo tyre not recommended ?
Bit of a waste of a Gatorskin….
I have doubts regarding your chain checker. You could compare its reading with the reading of a ruler (+1/16"==0.5% wear etc.).
+1/16" over what distance?
@@janeblogs324 12 complete links (inner+outer pairs) which measure 12".
(1/16) / 12 ~ 0.52%
For further details, type "Sheldon Brown Measuring Chain Wear" in your favorite search engine.
Would you please show us an amazon or ebay listing for the "super slick" cables ? Thanks!
There are several cables available, you should look for a stainless steel cable with a grounded surface. I mostly use quaxar or jagwire, but I'm sure there are many other brands available where you live.
Always struggle with SRAM Red rim brakes sticking after getting grimy , never sure how to strip to clean and then put back together correctly ,any tips or have you covered these on an older video?
Keep up the good work ,just ordered a Sonic Cleaner after watching some of your vids
Could you tell us which greases you use so we could purchase them as well? Great job as usual
There is a video on this channel that focuses only on the oils and greases used, I'm sure you'll find your answer here.

Hi Jay, we’re currently trialing this grease stand to sell, it’s months away as of now but we’ll keep you posted when there’s news 🧡
@@Bikespeeds I can't see the stand but keep me posted. I would be interested and keep those videos coming. I always learn something from you even though I been riding/racing for over 30 years.
Hey when you put rear derailleurs into the ultrasonic, what do you do to the greased innards afterwards? There are greased moving parts after all inside RDs. Not bearings but still.
How often do you change the degreaser liquid? And how do you dispose of it?
It gets to a stage where it stops cleaning as well and we change it then🧡
What temperature do you set your ultrasonic cleaner at?
That depends on what we put in it so many different temperatures 🧡
How does a bike get to that state?
Hard riding! 🧡⚙️
@bikespeeds can I ask where you buy your syringes and the holder?
Hi Simon, we’re actually trialing these as a product to sell ourselves in the not so distant future, so we’ll keep you all posted once they are ready!🧡
What brake was that on the rear? I don't recognise the branding. Looks almost like Bontragers logo
Looked like it said Concept CEX, same as the stem. Evidently, that is an offshoot of Tektro.
What bike wash product do you use?
Soapy water!🧡⚙️
What's the brand name of the cables you use please ?
