  • I walk through the steps to tighten a loose bottom bracket on your bike. I recommend using a flat head screwdriver, hammer, crescent wrench, and vise grips for this job. Hope it helps!

    Thank You Soooo Much! Your video saved me a trip to the Bike Store to tighten the crank on my Schwinn which has loosened up over 2 years. Pretty sure that was the cranking metal type noises I was hearing, especially going up a hill. I will have to see if I can tighten the crank on my old 2001 Mongoose also this way.

    thanks dude. Fixed my shite walmart bike. It only came with loose crank, warped wheels, and bad brakes. Such pride in their work, lmfao.

    Cheers Vincent - that worked (I used a plumber's wrench to loosen the lock nut and a hammer and screwdriver to tap the other thing around a bit).

    Thanks,I have a brand new bike and get a knocking sound when pedalling. It is always when the pedal/crank arm is in the same position. Your remedy is something for me to try.

      @@cafkn3664 yes I can confirm I just did it. All I did was clean out the bottom bracket and put it back together after that it stopped. Just make sure to tighten everything.

    Hi mate, completely random but can you tell me how I can stop plotting a matlab graph after a certain point?

    • @Dominicus808
      @Dominicus808 ปีที่แล้ว

      you need to set limit parameters for your input variables if you're importing data and change/delete those that fall in the outlier range. The code could thus stay unchanged. Otherwise, you'll have to write a batch specifying the number and type of elements that you want to plot

    For real though, if you did not have anyone within your circle of friends or family who understood the specific the problem in question, how did people even solve issues like this before the internet?

      Books, manuals and we tried until it worked. Current times are making people dumb because you have everything compared to people 20 years ago even.
