Thanks a bunch for this, my bike is so much smoother to ride, the front dederailleur is much nicer to shift than the old one. She'll be back again for another service.
This is nearly my same bike (‘09 Madone 4.5 in white/blue) that I recently rebuilt in the spirit of Bikespeeds attention to detail! Phenomenal video and so very much appreciated for the editing and voice over explanations. Thank you both Simon and Lee!!
Another great video! It would be great if you could not only recover/maintain bikes but also show us some new builds and tricks and tips for that. Keep it up!
hello from Omaha, Nebraska USA. been subbed to your channel for awhile now. always enjoy your videos and learn a bunch too. i never knew chain waxing even existed before watching you vids. keep up the good work!
Hello from Perth Australia, great another video, absolutely enjoyed it. Interesting to see the exact same bike as mine is serviced and looking great. well done!
Loved watching your vids for a while and when I found out your only in Lowestoft and I am in gorleston, the second I get paid from my new job my trek hybrid will be coming for a full service.
Greeting from New York State. Love your channel and I have learned a lot as I consider myself an advanced do it yourself rod bike mechanic. Great content. I never get bored of these videos. Keep up the great videos.
Another wonderful video! A freshly waxed chain is so smooth and quiet. Noticed you use a string/cord when waxing. Is that easier than a “swisher” or a coat hanger?
For us, chain waxing is awesome but we are a bike shop. So it’s not so hard for us to maintain waxing chains, definitely if you can afford to upkeep of chain waxing it’s the way to go🧡
Interesting! I recall in a previous video you didn't wax/lube/powder a chain because you said it was new. But this time you did. I'm curious what prompted the change.
We don’t oil new chains as the ones we buy come oiled in a packet. This customer wanted chain waxing so we actually degreased the oil that was on the chain to then swap it for wax🧡
Great video and service again! Hope you guys over there are doing mighty fine. I was wondering if you guys ever heard of a brand called sensah? They make pretty cheap shifters and derailleur and from reviews they seem to perform really good
What grease(s) do you recommend and for which applications? I noticed you used several different types. The copper based anti-seize used on threaded fasteners I recognize, and I use that myself. But looking for some good greases for bearings and other dynamic areas.
Morning guys, loved watching your videos from the start - great job! Looking for some advice - my 105 5700 right shifter snapped and it no longer goes down the gears. Can you still get them new? I can only find used which is probably a risk! Looking at a new winter bike to replace the current (2012 Giant Defy 1) but this seems a waste just for a shifter. What would you advise? Cheers!
I learnt today that this will not work with the old 10 speed derailleur it has the same pull rate at the newer 11 speed so you’ll need a modern generation 11 speed derailleur (running your 10 speed cassette and shifter to get it working. Check cross compatibility with your retailer to confirm)
We check the trueness, and check everything, but if something doesn’t need doing on camera we don’t show us checking it in the videos, we did true a wheel last week I think it was so that’s worth a watch!
Yesterday I was tinkering with my bike and while removing the chainrings from the cranks my grasp slipped and the chainring’s teeth went into my hand. I needed a few stitches and can’t put my bike back together :( I should have watched your videos for the correct technique like at 1:44 😅
Once again, another great video. I was just wondering is there anyway you could do a whole video specific on hydraulic brake bleeding, I keep trying and just scared I'll mess something up. Anyways thank you for the weekly entertainment - greatly appreciated 👍🏽
We’ve always tried to steer clear of “how to” content as we don’t claim to be experts, the tricky bit with hydraulics is every system being different but we always showcase different bikes so we might end up doing the one you have if that helps!🧡
Find one person who is willing to let you film the first pedal strokes after you're done. That video will be the most viewed on the channel if it ends with someones smiling face knowing their bike is the same as when they first got it. The dirtier the bike the better!
Your content is great and all but I wanna see more I know you said it takes time but I love your videos and I learned a lot from watching them and tips helped me alot of how a bike is supposed to look and looked after. I wish their was a bikeshop like your that cares about the bike and costumer. all bike shop near me all they do is charge you for no reason and not the greatest service so that why I do my own work on my bike. 👍👍love from NYC.

beautiful bike
No problem at all Philip🧡⚙️
Thanks for giving us the chance to see the prosess. It's a fantastic bike.
Wednesdays are not the same without a bikespeeds video
We couldn’t agree more😉🧡
the universe is at peace again after watching a Bikespeeds video!
Every week! You know it
This is nearly my same bike (‘09 Madone 4.5 in white/blue) that I recently rebuilt in the spirit of Bikespeeds attention to detail! Phenomenal video and so very much appreciated for the editing and voice over explanations. Thank you both Simon and Lee!!
Thanks from both of us Andrew!🧡⚙️
What a great channel. Every time I watch these videos my bikes get extra TLC
You took off the rear wheel after everything was done just to line up the logo, a true perfectionist!
Haha it has to be done lol🧡
Bread and butter bikes, yeah! Chears from halle, germany.
Cheers Jack!🧡
There is something so relaxing in all of your videos, never stop.
Thanks Ragnar we appreciate the support! You keep watching them and we’ll keep making them🧡

I am from Markham. I maintained my bicycle by reading and watching youtube.
Hello from Australia. Love the content.
Hi Lorna!🧡
I’d love to see more mountain bike overhauls ! Keep up the good work!
We film them when we get them, our local area is very much road bike dominated but we actually have a mountain bike video coming next week! 🧡
Excellent as always lads. Well done. Lovely bike too.
Cheers Des!🧡⚙️

I always place the tire pressure recommendation above the valve.
Not a bad idea⚙️
I do that too, can never find it otherwise!

If you’re ever passing pop in and say hello!
This is a great video!!!! Good detail great work
Thanks for watching!
Nice job
Absolutely love the attention to detail.! I would have had sleepless nights knowing that the tyre label was not centered 😬😎🇫🇮
You can sleep easy knowing we fixed it😂🧡
Top job, mate!! Keep up the precise work.....Many a bike shop in the industry could learn from you..Cheers! PJW
Thanks for supporting Paul, it goes a long way for us 🧡
Loved watching your vids for a while and when I found out your only in Lowestoft and I am in gorleston, the second I get paid from my new job my trek hybrid will be coming for a full service.
We’ll see you soon! 👍🏻🧡🚲

Thanks Jimmy! Enjoy your bikes and working on them🧡⚙️
Love the video again. If I were to bring a bike in, can I ask if you could film it?
Greetings from the USA.
Greetings! 🇺🇸🧡⚙️
Could you do a tour of your workshop?
That frame would need some Tcut and polishing to shine properly. Nice job btw. Greetings from Bosnia 🇧🇦
Greetings Crazy Joe!
Top Class
Thanks Dave🧡⚙️
so i have brushed ptfe on my chain for years how does MSW race power differ was thinking of getting some
Another wonderful video! A freshly waxed chain is so smooth and quiet.
Noticed you use a string/cord when waxing. Is that easier than a “swisher” or a coat hanger?
We like it just because it comes on a roll! Easy to put away, easy to get out, easy to bin, a coat hanger will work just as well though🧡
3am here in philippines
Given a choice what would you choose for a drive train
For us, chain waxing is awesome but we are a bike shop. So it’s not so hard for us to maintain waxing chains, definitely if you can afford to upkeep of chain waxing it’s the way to go🧡
Would love my bike to be serviced like this..🥰🥰
If you ever pass by us!
Interesting! I recall in a previous video you didn't wax/lube/powder a chain because you said it was new. But this time you did. I'm curious what prompted the change.
We don’t oil new chains as the ones we buy come oiled in a packet. This customer wanted chain waxing so we actually degreased the oil that was on the chain to then swap it for wax🧡
👍
What do you use to get grease off your hands after you're done (serious question)?
Nice video\1 Wondering what product you put in the ultrasonic cleaner?
We use a water soluble degreaser so that it can be washed off!🧡
@@Bikespeeds cheers would you mind sharing the brand? I use mucoff but for very solid greasy bit its not the best
the wheelset so cool is it shimano 540?
Great video and service again! Hope you guys over there are doing mighty fine. I was wondering if you guys ever heard of a brand called sensah? They make pretty cheap shifters and derailleur and from reviews they seem to perform really good
We actually haven’t, we’re not the most central bike shop and the nearest bike dealer to us is Giant so we work on plenty of Shimano!🧡
What grease(s) do you recommend and for which applications? I noticed you used several different types. The copper based anti-seize used on threaded fasteners I recognize, and I use that myself. But looking for some good greases for bearings and other dynamic areas.
Checkout our grease guide!
Morning guys, loved watching your videos from the start - great job! Looking for some advice - my 105 5700 right shifter snapped and it no longer goes down the gears. Can you still get them new? I can only find used which is probably a risk! Looking at a new winter bike to replace the current (2012 Giant Defy 1) but this seems a waste just for a shifter. What would you advise? Cheers!
Tiagra ST-4700 is the current Shimano 10 speed and will work perfectly fine with the remaining 105 10 speed components.
@@Bikespeeds thanks very much for taking the time to reply! Much appreciated.
I learnt today that this will not work with the old 10 speed derailleur it has the same pull rate at the newer 11 speed so you’ll need a modern generation 11 speed derailleur (running your 10 speed cassette and shifter to get it working. Check cross compatibility with your retailer to confirm)
Thanks very much! I did read that somewhere
Please show us how to service road bike pedals!!!
Nice vid! May I ask after how many kms you recommend re-waxing the chain? Cheers!
That really does depend on many things, mainly the wether, but you’ll know when it’s time, the chain will just look and feel dry
Don't you true the wheels with a standard service? I would think you would at least check for trueness in the stand.
We check the trueness, and check everything, but if something doesn’t need doing on camera we don’t show us checking it in the videos, we did true a wheel last week I think it was so that’s worth a watch!
Yesterday I was tinkering with my bike and while removing the chainrings from the cranks my grasp slipped and the chainring’s teeth went into my hand.
I needed a few stitches and can’t put my bike back together :(

Ouch! Get well soon!

Do a mountain bike
We do as many as we can that are worth filming, we have a couple dotted on our channel🧡
Find one person who is willing to let you film the first pedal strokes after you're done. That video will be the most viewed on the channel if it ends with someones smiling face knowing their bike is the same as when they first got it. The dirtier the bike the better!
What took me so long?
bruh not gonna lie u sound's like donald trump. AHAHAHAHAH
