    The tool you want to use to cut the zip ties is a pair of flush cut pliers. FastCap makes a few different sizes and they are great for getting a clean cut right to the edge.

  • @shawnomeara22
    @shawnomeara22 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    A quick tip, the first build of a bike you can’t get around the fishing challenge. I spin the bike in the stand and send the housing or hose down. BUT....once it’s built, when ever I need to change the hose or housing, I use the double ended little red barb sram makes for swapping reverb hose. You just screw the the new and the old hose together and pull it through.

    • @JeffKendallWeed
      @JeffKendallWeed  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Shawn, that trick does not really work well on the Ibis Ripmo AF. I did use to do that on the HD3 and Mojo 3 though! On the AF, the metal guides that snap into either end of the tube are super tight against the cable. You can't really get the old housing back through those very easily, and they are so tight that's going to be next to impossible to get a second cable to follow along. That said, I haven't tried that double ended SRAM barb, that is a cool looking piece!

    • @shawnomeara22
      @shawnomeara22 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jeff Kendall-Weed, my Ripmo AF was the 1st bike I used the double ended bard trick on. I pulled the cable guides out while the old hose stayed in, and slid the guides over new hose before I pulled in the new hose with the double bard. Did the same with the dropper housing.

    • @JeffKendallWeed
      @JeffKendallWeed  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Congrats on the HD5! I would say I love mine but it did just kick my a$$. Lack of tools? I've never found a better, cleaner solution than nail clippers for zip tie tails. Vice grips work great for holding the cable blocks, show me a better tool For that. And bench vice is the preferred option for the lockring. The massive 29" wheel means I can get a lot closer to the 49nm (yes, that's MASSIVE) torque sec of the Shimano cassette than I ever could with a shorter wrench.

    The right tool for the job is Excel sprue cutters, part #55595. You'll never use nail clippers again! (Except for fingernails that is) They cut absolutely flush so you can avoid those nasty zip tie scratches!

  • @energ8t
    @energ8t 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    8:20 I use needle nose pliers. Grab the excess tie close to the "head" of the zip-tie (so the tie you're clipping runs into and parallel with the needle nose). Just keep twisting the pliers until the tie breaks off. No sharp edges, bingo.

    • @JeffKendallWeed
      @JeffKendallWeed  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Codai, I've always pieced stuff together since so many pre-assembled tool kits have unnecessary tools. I normally use hardware store Allen keys, I prefer the Allen brand as it's made in USA and super high quality. Side cutters, cassette lockring tool, BB tools, chain-whip, bleed kit, 32mm wrench (for BB tool and fork top cap), spoke wrench, and chain breaker are pretty much all that's really necessary. For a headset swap you need a bearing press to do it right, and the fancy removal tools for headset cups are great. The crown race install tool is nice but also not fully necessary. And while cutting guides a great, you can use a pipe cutter just fine, and those are a lot cheaper.

    why 165 mm cranks ? how tall are you

    • @JeffKendallWeed

      Hey Konrad, I'm just over 5'8", or 174cm. The 165mm cranks are for two reasons- 1, minimize pedal strikes, 2, more comfortable out-of-the-saddle pedaling. I have swapped most of my bikes over to 165 and really like them.

      @@JeffKendallWeed thx for the info, I'm also 174 cm and I just destroyed a set of 175mm cranks son I'm reading everything about bike fitting and those 165 would be perfect just not sure how it will ride, don't have where to test it

    Do you shoot this in some sort of log profile and forget to do color grading?

      Hahahaha!!! I'm actually out of PNW bars and stems and posts right now! The amount of bikes I've been cycling through is a little absurd.
