The perks of having a neighbor like Seth. The minute I started watching I knew Seth wouldn't just tighten some cables. 😂😂 I bet it made his day, weeks and months.... 😎👍 Also nice to show how you can nicely upgrade an older bike and bring it up to date with just a few new parts and maintenance....
There's not much that stayed the same... I think it's just: frame wheels seatpost rear tire pedals bearings seatpost clamp some screws. The suspension fork inner tubes
I love the fact that seth never overly acknowledges DiamondBack as his sponsor. He just casually says it and it is more impactful than shouting them our more.

Bru that was really nice of you! God bless you. Being a single dad myself with 2 boy's it's things like this that will go a long way! helping someone out.
👍Seth this takes me back to when you started your channel and we used to see your trek bike. So good to see a normal bike getting some work done to it and not something crazy expensive that most cant afford. BY THE WAY DO YOU STILL OWN YOUR OLD TREK ? You should make a video on it. 👍
Seth, spreading the love, one component upgrade at a time! I’m just stoked for Carson to get the bike, because nothing beats a surprise component /performance upgrade on an already well loved ride. Keep doing what you do, Seth!
I have an XC bike, I want the same things out of it. All these suggestions were what I have been wondering about myself. I’m just a novice so to watch someone who’s on another level confirm everything I’ve been wondering about is awesome! Thanks man!
I've accidentally caught my fingertip in a disc while it was slow speed spinning and I was aligning the caliper - cut right through my nail and mashed the nail bed, I had to have the whole nail pulled out in hospital and the nail bed stitched back together. I had a group of medical students watching the whole thing and one had to leave to throw up! They stick a metal nail shape in its place to stop it closing up while the nail regrows - and I'll tell you what; getting a static shock on a fake metal nail replacement when you catch it on a long sleeved shirt is the most discomforting feeling :D
This was fun to watch. Wouldn't mind watching more of these! A reaction from neighbour's kid would have been awesome but a follow up would be good too.

What do we want: MORE BEARM PEAK CONTENT!!!!! When do we want it: MORE OFTEN THAN EVERY FRIDAY!!!! ----- edit: They are great videos Seth, keep up the good work on Berm Peak! I am currently working on my own backyard trail system🤟🏽
Let Seth post when he wants. Yes we are all stuck at home, but he actually has family and stuff to do. He's I would like it posted more often, but that is not for us to give him a hard time about.
Zach martin I know he works hard on his trail system, I can relate in a way as I have a mtb trail system myself that keeps expanding. It’s a lot of work and he is doing his best. It was a joke. Have a good day.
Hey Seth, so I actually have the exact same bike and take it on my local trails. It holds up pretty well with the stock parts, but the drive train is a mess. Any budget friendly upgrades you would have done to this bike otherwise? Unfortunately I do not have your seemingly endless and expensive parts bin... Thanks!
Spencer Hatfield Changing the front ring to single speed without changing the cranks is way more economical. For the rear, a Box 3 is a great deal, and I’d check out Microshift’s 9 speed offerings. You could get away pretty cheap with a similar result!
Love this video. Gentlemen move on upgrading this kids bike. It is so important to share your knowledge and help others out when it comes to hand down your passion for a sport.
Seems like the channels got switched this week. This should have been the bike hacks video and the Deep knob trail should have been the Berm Peak video. These bike videos are money.
@@traviswilliams7582 oh definitly both channels are great. I like berm peak better because we get to watch Seth's hilarious personality and random bike stuff. After 10 straight videos of trail building on the main channel it kinda gets old. All in all they're both excellent
I found great reviews of the Diamondback Overdrive 29er. Picked up two and my son has been killin it. He hit trails with his full suspension buddies.

Seth: Hit everything but jumps.
*Hits a jump*
Cameraman: "I thought you said no jumps!"
the camera man is the singletrack sampler
@@mattduff4220 ok
*Seth being Seth* 🤷♂️
Sol Hancock but at that Moment je was cameraman.
What do we want: MORE BEARM PEAK CONTENT!!!!!
When do we want it: MORE OFTEN THAN EVERY FRIDAY!!!! ----- edit: They are great videos Seth, keep up the good work on Berm Peak! I am currently working on my own backyard trail system🤟🏽
nico Kellerman be grateful he’s uploading as much as he is now, he’s working his ass off doing what he’s doing now
Let Seth post when he wants. Yes we are all stuck at home, but he actually has family and stuff to do. He's I would like it posted more often, but that is not for us to give him a hard time about.
Squaller
It’s a joke, calm down buddy🤦🏿♀️
Zach martin I know he works hard on his trail system, I can relate in a way as I have a mtb trail system myself that keeps expanding. It’s a lot of work and he is doing his best. It was a joke. Have a good day.
Hey Seth, so I actually have the exact same bike and take it on my local trails. It holds up pretty well with the stock parts, but the drive train is a mess. Any budget friendly upgrades you would have done to this bike otherwise? Unfortunately I do not have your seemingly endless and expensive parts bin... Thanks!
Spencer Hatfield Changing the front ring to single speed without changing the cranks is way more economical. For the rear, a Box 3 is a great deal, and I’d check out Microshift’s 9 speed offerings. You could get away pretty cheap with a similar result!
Love this video. Gentlemen move on upgrading this kids bike. It is so important to share your knowledge and help others out when it comes to hand down your passion for a sport.
Seems like the channels got switched this week. This should have been the bike hacks video and the Deep knob trail should have been the Berm Peak video. These bike videos are money.
Yea i honestly find BPE to be more entertaining, kinda what SBH was
that's actually probably true.... but I love both of them either way
@@traviswilliams7582 oh definitly both channels are great. I like berm peak better because we get to watch Seth's hilarious personality and random bike stuff. After 10 straight videos of trail building on the main channel it kinda gets old. All in all they're both excellent
I definitely haven’t watched this 8 times
smae
Same
Yea 7.2209 times only
kids bike.
seth: this is too big for me
I found great reviews of the Diamondback Overdrive 29er. Picked up two and my son has been killin it. He hit trails with his full suspension buddies. It’s been about 6 months since he stared and we’re about to upgrade to something my appropriate to his skill development and new downhill love. Great fun sport.
Seth im thankfull for showing pounds and kilo’s, that makes it easier for us europeans
11:06 "thats 40 nm right?" lmao
Shane be like, "i need my sons shifting fixed",
Seth be like,"I'm just gonna replace everything on the bike"
These bike upgrades are probably my favourite videos you do! Keep ‘em coming!
*-seth:* "my close neighbor"
*-translation:* "the person who lives 3 milles from my house"
Definition of neighbor: "a person living next door to or very near to the speaker or person referred to"
I feel like I could turn up at his house at 4am and he wouldn't even be mad. Seths a cool guy
What a thoughtful human. We need more people like you on this planet 🌍
Seth is the most honest, stand up dude, on the internet.
We’re doing the same thing that you did to that bike today with my friends bike. My friends getting a whole new Deore drive train pretty 🔥
thats always sooo nice to upgrade - selfmade is even the best ^^
