#TequilaCamTuesday..... The long awaited 130 build video is here for your viewing pleasure. Grab a margarita or three and enjoy the stupidity. Let me know if you have any questions!!
where can i find those wheels in europe? roval website only ships them in the us, and on the specialized italia there are none, just the new ones that are heavier, more expensive and uglier
The total dream rig right there! The new sb130 is so beautiful! It might be one of my next bikes! The new generation of small travel bikes are so capable. I love how you make fun on Pinkbike from time to time. Imagine those people ride as much as they comment!
first bike build ive watched till the end. wasnt really bothered about the bike more just listening to you chat on about bikes! awesome vid. would love to see more mechanical videos!
Surprisingly information bike builds vids! Always fun to watch when it's cocktail time.I just slapped some fresh Minion DHF's on my Yeti this week. I LOVE new Minion day also haha! Cheers dude!
Big thanks on the build Nate👍🏼learned a few tricks. Next time, a little more instruction on making the cocktail. I found myself pulling directly from the bottle cuz I just couldn’t follow along quick enough😉
This video was very informative. This format outshines your other bike checks because you show additional tips and hacks as you build it. Transparent pipe on derailleur, vinyl, “Clear Brah”, Etc. What is CLEAR BRAH? Thanks and do more of this. Thanks nerd
Nate, morning from Bangkok during my "on rotation" flying gig. I must say its great to see you in a kick back relaxed , jovial mode and enjoying some killer T when building your Yeti as opposed to your hair raising downhill intense MTB'n! Always enjoy your videos and for giving me a lot of confidence and admiration to better my riding skills. Blue skies brother, Jg
Fek yeah! Anytime you combine tequila and new bike day...life is glorious. Especially a real lime marg. I've been seeing pics here and there of your 130, but never quite got a solid "up close" look at your build. Super solid, amigo. Will definitely check out those Roval wheels. Keep pedalin' and enjoying the margs!
Nice vid mate. Great to watch and love the humour. Looked at a SB 130 today at local bike shop ,they are sweet bikes. Looking forward to your thoughts. Cheers Nate👍👍
That quick glimpse of you swinging a hammer into you bottom bracket at the beginning made me gasp out loud! lol Sweet new sled Nate, I'm sure you'll give her a proper spanking on every ride!
Those are the important things! Always enjoy the videos and if you're ever in the Southeast (Atlanta, TN, NC) area, would be great to have you join up on one of our ChattaHooligan rides.
Should def do a show like this where u talk bikes stuff. Really like the one on one feel of this vid. Would be awesome variety with the riding vids, you've got the personality for it and all the knowledge as well!🤙🤙 #tequilacamtuedsday
Hi Nate, I always enjoy your videos! My sb130 is needing some love, and I will throw on a super deluxe. What is the tune that you used for this build( I too weigh 150lbs)?
So good man. Love these build videos. Can't wait to ride one of these bikes. Purely for the water bottle of course. Should have put a "PinkBike" branded bottle in while making this video. Would have made this over the top and probably brought down the interwebs. :-)
Always quality !! Nate ; Nate can you Run a Fox 36 160 on the SB 130 & cranks can you go down to 165 instead of the standard 175 to reduce Rock strikes ; Loved your bike build👍🏼🤘🏻😎👌🏻
Badass bike! I'm a monster of a man at 240 lbs kitted up. I'm thinking I should be on a 150 for the extra beefiness. Or do you think the 130 is up for the challenge?
The geo feels very different. Feels just as stable as 55, but seems to be a bit quicker to turn and has a more lively feel on trail to me. The steep seat angle is SO much better for climbing. Still love my 55 though.
im glad to hear you say do whats comfortable (gearing and cockpit) here lately all my buddies just do and copy whats on the internet. im all for customizing for comfort and because you perfer it.... so fuk um iv allways been an upstream type of guy anyway....
That is just not a thing in my world. I can't take the risk in races or in riding exposed terrain where one slip of the drivetrain could result in injury. I see people loose their chains all the time with the newest drivetrains, regardless of brand. The clutches are good, bun not 100p. If you ride really rough terrain, you need a guide. You should see the bottom of my bash guard, it has saved my chainring hundreds of times.
@@natehills9388 yea I definitely run the bash guard as well, idk maybe I just need to ride faster, narrow-wide + clutch has been working great for me and I ride northeast rocks a lot
Nate, I ordered the 3M tape you suggested and was curious if you've had any issues with it peeling while applying dry instead of wet as recommended. Thanks!
First thing first, you are quiet a bit bartender, always know what is the right at the moment, CHEERS!!! The build is just perfect, love the 36 chain ring, is great to use "real man" gear when need it, preorder mine, love to run oval and YETI recommended only up to 34, so will have 32-34 (even my wife has the same), always saying you can or you can't climb hard stuff, not any BS spinning like hovering helicopter , done!!!! Have to tell this, wishing you many many new frames and components for great entertaining video builds like you done already...... NERD, you need to meet me, everybody knows that right color coordination and personal touch make your bike faster, cooler and easier to pedal than any average one of billion low standard! Enjoy!
Told you last winter we are buying 5.5, but we didn't , spent money on camper van downpayment, this year is the year, I am getting SB150 and wife SB5 Beti, was worth to wait I think, tested 2 weeks ago and decision is concerted , cant wait, thank you again for entertaining production, maaaan!
Basically, I would hit my housing on rocks and small trees all the time, it would crack and have to be replaced. It is the weak point from a breakage standpoint. This just keeps that from happening, and I have to replace the housing much less frequently. More time to ride.
Sweet, thanks for hitting me back! Interesting that hasn't happened to me yet, I must not be riding hard enough! I'd love to know if anyone has a better solution to the end of the cable, I constantly losing the crimp and the cable starts to fray..
Thanks for the awesome vid Hillsy! Mines on order but as I am a non-ambassador slouch 🤪 it’ll be awhile before it arrives. Did the Stages clear the chainstay without mods? I was afraid the sensor/battery housing was going to rub and force me to switch to Quarq...🤞
The arm that I am using clears with about 3mm without any mods. This is the most clearance I have seen after running meters on the bikes for. a couple of years now. Stoked.
How does she do when you get her into some bigger stuff? For my riding style, this bike would be more suitable than the 150 for the most part, especially if i threw a 160 in the front. But I do see myself getting a bit more sendy in the future, and love to hit bike parks a few times a season. I am coming off an SB5.5 which was the sweet spot for. I cant decide between 130 or 150
#TequilaCamTuesday..... The long awaited 130 build video is here for your viewing pleasure. Grab a margarita or three and enjoy the stupidity. Let me know if you have any questions!!
Yeah, I got one... how can I become a matchy, matchy, tequila nerd? 😂
The more you drink Russell, the easier it gets.
Here's a awesome question....What's better 26 or 27.5 or even 29er ? 🤣😂🤣😂
Pinkbike is waiting for you Superminiracer..... haha
where can i find those wheels in europe? roval website only ships them in the us, and on the specialized italia there are none, just the new ones that are heavier, more expensive and uglier
"...think they make like fishing poles" 😂so good!
Lures, reels, that sort of thing.....
Can't say Shima....fishing poles lol
Yes, proper color matching! (paused vid>hit like button>continued vid) Sick bike man and nice build!
I'm such a dork.
Unless you’re red/orange color blind like me. Cool to see the tracing idea. #kindergartenflashbacks
Dat sponsors disclosure doe 👌
Sick machine!
Transparency is always the best policy.
The total dream rig right there! The new sb130 is so beautiful! It might be one of my next bikes! The new generation of small travel bikes are so capable. I love how you make fun on Pinkbike from time to time. Imagine those people ride as much as they comment!
The PB comment section if good for a laugh now and then. Time is better spent riding though, if you ask me, ha.
First bike build I’ve watched in ages. Enough detail without boring. Like your “matter of fact” style and tequila interludes... 🤘🏼
Thanks Tim, drinking while watching this video also makes it more interesting, haha.
At 09:10 tequila was already possessing you 🤣, thank god you didn't cut a leg of your Lyrik instead of the steer tube.
Haha, close one. Measure 14 times, cut 3 times....
nice one. One of the best bike build video's I've seen. Perfect amount of detail mixed with not taking bikes too seriously. Thanks, Nate
Never take things too seriously, bikes are fun. Just like tequila. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful build, proper cocktails. 10/10.
Cheers Ryan
first bike build ive watched till the end. wasnt really bothered about the bike more just listening to you chat on about bikes! awesome vid. would love to see more mechanical videos!
Real talk, ha. Thanks for watching.
Best 20mins I spent all week! Sick build🤙🏼🤙🏼
Thanks for watching all of that!
You crack me up!
Seriously can't believe that you are actually at home. Thought that you lived on the road!
Can't wait to see the ride video.
Loving some quality time in the cave of man.
Surprisingly information bike builds vids! Always fun to watch when it's cocktail time.I just slapped some fresh Minion DHF's on my Yeti this week. I LOVE new Minion day also haha! Cheers dude!
New minion day is the best day!
Great video! Had it on in the background with headphones on and the cheering that you added scared the shit out of me!
Probably the funniest bike build I’ve seen before
Big thanks on the build Nate👍🏼learned a few tricks. Next time, a little more instruction on making the cocktail. I found myself pulling directly from the bottle cuz I just couldn’t follow along quick enough😉
Sounds like you are drinking correctly! ha
This video was very informative. This format outshines your other bike checks because you show additional tips and hacks as you build it. Transparent pipe on derailleur, vinyl, “Clear Brah”, Etc. What is CLEAR BRAH?
Thanks and do more of this. Thanks nerd
Clear braah is thinly sliced bro bras that have been bleached and pounded until they become translucent.
This was awesome. Shows your relaxed personality, which is way cool!
It was the tequila talking, ha.
Nate, morning from Bangkok during my "on rotation" flying gig. I must say its great to see you in a kick back relaxed , jovial mode and enjoying some killer T when building your Yeti as opposed to your hair raising downhill intense MTB'n! Always enjoy your videos and for giving me a lot of confidence and admiration to better my riding skills. Blue skies brother, Jg
Dude! This is entertaining as hell. You’re a funny dude and a great rider. Cheers!
Haha, thanks for watching. Glad I could amuse you.
Fek yeah! Anytime you combine tequila and new bike day...life is glorious. Especially a real lime marg. I've been seeing pics here and there of your 130, but never quite got a solid "up close" look at your build. Super solid, amigo. Will definitely check out those Roval wheels. Keep pedalin' and enjoying the margs!
Loved the video. I can't wait to get my SB130 ordered! Also, cool tip on the vinyl to color coordinate. I'll definitely be using it! Cheers Nate.
Cheers Brian, enjoy your new bike;)
Nice vid mate.
Great to watch and love the humour.
Looked at a SB 130 today at local bike shop ,they are sweet bikes.
Looking forward to your thoughts.
Cheers Nate👍👍
hands down the best mtb youtuber out there!!!
i road this bike this past weekend..sweet!! rig..obviously not spec out like Mr Hills
Thanks Jason. Glad you got to throw a leg over her.
Right on Nate! Can't wait to see this beast in action!
Love your transparency and love watching your vids!
giggled quite a few times through this video. makes me want to build a bike for the first time
Do it.
That quick glimpse of you swinging a hammer into you bottom bracket at the beginning made me gasp out loud! lol Sweet new sled Nate, I'm sure you'll give her a proper spanking on every ride!
I promise to ride this bike with complete disregard for my personal safety.
Alien technology. Love the video. After a ride, I eat popcorn and watch your channel.
Sounds like a solid recovery plan David!
Great build, Nate. Thanks for sharing.
Best bike build vid ever. Great job :D
Thanks Chris.
Nice build! Oh and the Santa Cruz organic tequila mix is da bomb! Makes for some pretty tasty margaritas!
I will give that a try. Thanks for the tip. These are the important things, haha.
Those are the important things! Always enjoy the videos and if you're ever in the Southeast (Atlanta, TN, NC) area, would be great to have you join up on one of our ChattaHooligan rides.
That’s a nice ride bro! Cheers to you!!
Cheers Grant.
Sweet bike, sweet looking work area.
SUper awesome and fun bike build!!
ps. so many stans bottles on the right hahaha
Always prepared m8.
Fun video. Thanks for not getting too serious on the 🚲 build.
Happy Trails on your new rig bro 🤘
What me serious? Never.
Awesome bike man! i'm going to own it soon, you're the best, Thanks Nate!
You will enjoy! I promise.
Great video, very entertaining Nate!
Nate Hills - Legend as always!
Always dig the insight to the setups
I don't think anyone on Pinkbike actually rides. They just sit on the internet all day criticizing everything! Anyway, sweet bike there broski!
Always wondered if they actually ride... Pure entertainment if nothing else.
Nate I always knew you were a stud, but damn, you're THE most interesting man in the world!
Haha!
I AM JEALOUS!!! This bike was on my short list, but way too expensive. So I wound up with a new '18 SB5.5 instead... Thanks, Nate!
Enjoy! I have had several 55's. You will be stoked! Still love mine.
Such a sick build!
Cheers Scott.
Nate your the man! I think you should run a 38 tooth ring up front! Your bike builds are great thanks!
Wish it would fit! haha. Mountain gearing.
Awesome, been waiting for so long for another one. thanks man
Thanks for waiting.
Sweet build
Good video, Nate!
Should def do a show like this where u talk bikes stuff. Really like the one on one feel of this vid. Would be awesome variety with the riding vids, you've got the personality for it and all the knowledge as well!🤙🤙 #tequilacamtuedsday
Thanks Carson. Definitely considering doing some more of this style of video. Just need some more tequila... ha.
16:43 high roller II in the back?
Awesome bike build great video 👍 Bud light 💡 please! 💪🏋️♀️🚴♀️😎
You drink Bud Light? lol
Okay that was pretty funny I enjoy Tequila as well 🤫
Ever mix tequila into bud light? ha@@MTBTexasBikeRider
A matter a fact “Yes” I have😏
Nice build! Have a similar setup on my vitus sommet crs love it!
Still waiting on an espresso setup check... good shit as usual man
Such an awesome video made by an awesome guy, nice.
Cheers Yannick.
I relate to your big chainring use lol, I ride a 40 up front hehe
Yes, same team.
definitely a chain guide and bashguard when you run a 36t. me, out of shape running a 30 t, never hit it.
Hi Nate, I always enjoy your videos! My sb130 is needing some love, and I will throw on a super deluxe. What is the tune that you used for this build( I too weigh 150lbs)?
Like the Tequila, like the Breville , and man that Yeti 👌
All the good things.
That bike is perfect
Once you’ve had some time in the saddle would love to see a review on the 130!
nice one Nate!
sweet build!
So good man. Love these build videos. Can't wait to ride one of these bikes. Purely for the water bottle of course. Should have put a "PinkBike" branded bottle in while making this video. Would have made this over the top and probably brought down the interwebs. :-)
Haha, good idea. That would have broken the inter webs.
What's the diameter of the clear tubing you use to cover the rear derailleur cable housing? Siick bike! 🤙
Those are some nice G Loomis pedals! Lol Man! It’s been a long time since we’ve seen a video out of the shop and it was gold!
Haha, thanks mang
Team Daiwa bruh!
Sick bike how does the YETI 130 compare with my KONA 153DL small..
Always quality !! Nate ; Nate can you Run a Fox 36 160 on the SB 130 & cranks can you go down to 165 instead of the standard 175 to reduce Rock strikes ; Loved your bike build👍🏼🤘🏻😎👌🏻
You could run any fork or crank you like. I have no issues with 175
best bike build video ever
Thanks!
Is this build a 29er or 27.5? Also, do you run the same size wheels on all your mtb's?
This is a 29er
Keep on crankin'
Awesome video! 🤘🏻
Thanks Donny.
Badass bike! I'm a monster of a man at 240 lbs kitted up. I'm thinking I should be on a 150 for the extra beefiness. Or do you think the 130 is up for the challenge?
Bigger or smaller than Richie? haha. I say go 150 and smash into everything!
can this handle a vail pass shuttle?? seriously, sick build. hopefully this sees some good action at home before things change too much.
Haha, hope it is up to the task. Snow is coming!
Great vid Mr Hills. Only 3 more bike checks left. Or is that 4. 😉
I need an intern... ha
if you didn't flinch at 0:19 you have no soul.
Rad build.
Haha, keeping you on your toes!
Any thoughts on the 130 vs 5.5?
Bought a 5.5 last fall and love it. (Water bottle cage wasn't a deal breaker for me......lol.)
The geo feels very different. Feels just as stable as 55, but seems to be a bit quicker to turn and has a more lively feel on trail to me. The steep seat angle is SO much better for climbing. Still love my 55 though.
Bought 5.5 in the Spring. It's a monster. Can run over anything!!!
Indoor gold 🤘 @outdoorGold 😉
Hey Nate, what's that red vinyl tape you're using? Nice touch.
I bought this at a graphic shop in New Zealand. Any print shop should have some scraps laying around.
Really nice build. 👍
What do u call that red vinyl? And whered u bought it
It's vinyl. I found it at a tint shop. Any place that does automotive wrap or tint should have some.
what ever happened to the sb 100? awesome video though
100 is patiently resting. Waiting for the next beat-down.
Mr. Hills you crack me up. Great vid. Who makes that tequila again?
Milagro! Send me some! ha
As always awsome video..
im glad to hear you say do whats comfortable (gearing and cockpit) here lately all my buddies just do and copy whats on the internet. im all for customizing for comfort and because you perfer it.... so fuk um iv allways been an upstream type of guy anyway....
Do what feels good man. There is no "right" way, just preferences. Enjoy the ride!
Awesome bike bro, my dream bike.🚲💪👍👊
Best mtb vid of 2018 tbh...
Thanks Bud!
have you ever tried taking the chainguide off recently? I've never had the need for one with a clutch type derailleur
That is just not a thing in my world. I can't take the risk in races or in riding exposed terrain where one slip of the drivetrain could result in injury. I see people loose their chains all the time with the newest drivetrains, regardless of brand. The clutches are good, bun not 100p. If you ride really rough terrain, you need a guide.

@@natehills9388 yea I definitely run the bash guard as well, idk maybe I just need to ride faster, narrow-wide + clutch has been working great for me and I ride northeast rocks a lot
Nate, I ordered the 3M tape you suggested and was curious if you've had any issues with it peeling while applying dry instead of wet as recommended. Thanks!
I have only used it dry and never had an issue.
First thing first, you are quiet a bit bartender, always know what is the right at the moment, CHEERS!!!

Haha, thanks for the kind words Verdon! Stoked you are getting one, you will be amazed. So much fun!
Told you last winter we are buying 5.5, but we didn't , spent money on camper van downpayment, this year is the year, I am getting SB150 and wife SB5 Beti, was worth to wait I think, tested 2 weeks ago and decision is concerted , cant wait, thank you again for entertaining production, maaaan!
A camper van is always a god gall. Got to have some place to store those bikes, ha.
Great vid! Why do you put the clear tubing on the exposed shifter cable again? I didn’t quite understand. Just extra protection for the housing?
Basically, I would hit my housing on rocks and small trees all the time, it would crack and have to be replaced. It is the weak point from a breakage standpoint. This just keeps that from happening, and I have to replace the housing much less frequently. More time to ride.
Sweet, thanks for hitting me back! Interesting that hasn't happened to me yet, I must not be riding hard enough! I'd love to know if anyone has a better solution to the end of the cable, I constantly losing the crimp and the cable starts to fray..
Maybe you are just less of a hack than me;) This was more of an issue in the old days when the exposed housing was longer and stuck out more I guess.
While I got your attention, why don't you get to do the Trans Cascadia? Why does Kabush get all the fun? That one seems right up your alley..
I want to put a super deluxe 210x55 on my sb130 to go with the lyrik I have. What compression/rebound tune is the right one? Thanks,
I am running a M\M tune. Feels great.
What's the total weight come in at for this awesome build. The frame with rear shock looks super light...
I never weigh my bikes, they are as light as I feel comfortable without compromising durability. Probably 30 if I had to guess with real tires.
Awesome bike Nate! What is the chain guide you used? I can't find it on your parts list, and every MRP chain guide I see only fits 1x11 on its spec.
Mrp SXG. 11 is the same as 12 Spd.
Thanks for the awesome vid Hillsy! Mines on order but as I am a non-ambassador slouch 🤪 it’ll be awhile before it arrives. Did the Stages clear the chainstay without mods? I was afraid the sensor/battery housing was going to rub and force me to switch to Quarq...🤞
The arm that I am using clears with about 3mm without any mods. This is the most clearance I have seen after running meters on the bikes for. a couple of years now. Stoked.
This is fun as hell!
Thanks Geoff.
that is a badass bike but what frame protection are you running.
I run 3M clear bra that I bought for cheap at an auto parts store. Works great.
How does she do when you get her into some bigger stuff? For my riding style, this bike would be more suitable than the 150 for the most part, especially if i threw a 160 in the front. But I do see myself getting a bit more sendy in the future, and love to hit bike parks a few times a season. I am coming off an SB5.5 which was the sweet spot for. I cant decide between 130 or 150
130 feels similar to my 55. I would imagine the 150 is overkill for most of the riding we do. Almost a dh rig...
Thanks for doing this Cam!
Edit: Thanks neeeeerd
NEEERDDDD!
Hi Nate, Was it just the standard 130 shock or the LR 136 👍👌
LR
what size shrink tube is that? getting a new bike this week and need to have it lookin good for all of the lady bikes!
I can't remember but if you bring a piece of housing to the local hardware store, they will sort you out. That is what I did.
