No, drill holes in every visible part of your bike frame, and then carefully tap the holes so you can mount your GoPro on every part of your ruined bike. Carefully, to not bother your neighbors.
I've worked in a bike shop for nearly 7 years fixing bikes, and that hack about using valve stem nuts is brilliant 😂. Definatly going to use that from now on
It was litterally a light bulb moment for me. I've been a mechanic for 10 years too. haha! Seth, If I ever see you on the trail, or at a bike park, you can be sure I'll buy you a beer! For SURE!
@@Jonathan_Doe_or just shorten the chain and pedal home without the lowest gear... Usually when the chain snaps, it is only one or two links that are bent.
Hey Seth, i was out biking pretty far from home without a quicklink and my chain broke, so i found a string on the ground and tied the two ends of the chain together on the bottom side of the drivetrain. Then i was able to pedal one full revolution, backpedal, and repeat. Its a pretty sketchy fix but it beat walking home
Hey Seth, an added tip for cutting zip ties: Use another zip tie. You push the 2nd tie onto the tail of the first, snug them up, and proceed to do that twist trick. The 1st tie usually shears off perfectly flush with its nub, then you just pull the 1st ties tail out of the 2nd ties nub and you're good to go!
Not a native English speaker nor good visualizer. Gonna need a whole chart explaining what should be done. * instructions unclear, dick stuck in a groupset *
I’ve got to say, having subscribed to you a while back when I was still into mountain biking, and now being a hardcore bmxer with no desire to take up mountain biking again, I still enjoy your videos immensely!
If the bolt is not too rounded, you could also use a rubber band between the bolt and the hex. It should help to have enough grip to unscrew the bold. I've used this trick to get rid of a rounded top cap bold and it worked well.
You inspired me so much I have built so dirt jumps in my yard and its amazing I will use you packing tool next time I build a jump. Keep up the good work
As a pro mechanic I've used the valve-nut tip when doing fork overhauls for years. Glad to see it being spread to other riders! Once I remove the fork I like to use a pedal strap threaded through the headtube to secure the headset bearings, spacers and stem. This helps keep everything in the proper order, makes assembly easier, and most importantly it keeps the handlebar from dangling so that you're not putting stress on your brake hoses.
Good tips. Nice video. I had a chain break years ago and ended up walking home. Since then, along with chain tool, I keep a strip of chain links in the tool bag. Exact chain length is not important unless you have a single-gear bike. If you don't have a truing stand, put a cable tie on your fork and cut it where it just touches the rim. As wheel turns observe the gap and tighten spokes accordingly. After decades of working on my own bikes, just learned this from a youtube video this year.
The valve stem nuts to hold brake bolts/spacers is truely AWESOME. I tried elec tape last time, it fell off. Didnt think of those nuts, and I have loads of them spare!
@@INTEL965GAMES The joke is that it's obviously not real Mexican food, and nobody believes it is. I also suspect that the recipe itself is a bit of a joke.
"Find a hex wrench" **Pauses Video** Me: Okay i got this very expensive 200$ hex wrench! **Plays video** "Don't make it too expensive, since we're going to destroy it" Me: frick
I have a couple for you, you're not the only one who thinks ahead, for chain stay protector I used road bike handlebar wrap, I used cork for weather resistant and lightweight, another thing I thought about was my cable and hose routing, I ran everything thing to compensate for a 180 degree turn, but I also ran my cables a little shorter than my brake lines, so if it does happen the cables will grab before the hydraulic lines do, call it a failsafe, I would rather replace a cable as apposed to the alternative, AKA fluid everywhere, I hope you get this and share, I love your channel along with many others, you have been a great place for knowledge and insertion, one more thing, the road bike handlebar wrap comes in so many colors and forms it's the perfect product for chain stay protection.
Just bought my first hardtail in about 10 years mostly thanks to your videos. Needless to say, I overexerted myself during the first ride and puked next to a park bench. You never realize how hard biking actually is until you sit on one and realize that stamina isn't just a video game stat anymore.
I just recently snapped my chain in bentonville. It came back and skinned my shin, Invest in shin guards. Edit: I’m trying to lube my suspension fork. Any substitutes for fork lube? Since I don’t have any.
Yard Sale Dale I was trying to be “steezy” and showing off infront of my brother but my chain when off of my cassette and I started pedaling and it and it snapped. I actually had the KMC Gold chain so that’s trashed.
Tip for the valve core removal - Tyre levers, specifically the metal ones, the hook end that clips onto the spoke is the same size you need to unscrew the core... you're welcome ;)
After working on my brake caliper I forgot to bend the pin that threads through the brake pads in order to secure the them, so it fell out. I used a piece a bamboo and two zip ties on each end to secure it. It worked so well I hated to remove it once back home. Great vid!
Good zip tie cutting hack when on the trail. For when i'm home, I bought flush cutters for zip ties.... never have a sharp zip tie end ever again and well worth the $5. I'll never use standard wire cutters again because they always leave a very sharp edge and i've cut myself by accident many times before.
Hey Seth! Love the channel and what you're doing for the community. I have a suggestion for the next bike hack video. "How to dial in a bigger than expected dropper post". For me, I have a 150mm that's about 1 inch to high for me and really sucks because it came with the bike and I had no option to change it. I've thought about doing a shoelace tied from my seat to my seatpost clamp, when I've dialed in the right height. Or better yet, a thin plastic wrapped metal wire, or normal wire with some nice small metal crimps. Haven't tried it yet. Maybe you could!
Late reply, but some droppers allow you to lower the travel. You’ll want to unscrew the deal collar and find the keyways (slots on the stanchion). Put some spacers between the keys and upper bushing, and you’re good to go! If you look up “travel adjust dropper” you can find some videos covering the process, although you may have to hack it a bit (your dropper probably doesn’t have proper shims available).
Wait a minute, if you don't have the tools to repair your chain (chain tool) then the hack is to use a chain tool to make your chain smaller and wrap it around your chain ring... im kind of confused
Last time this happened to me I just took a little stick roughly the size of the pinhole and put it in there to keep the chain closed. You can't pedal this way but it'll get you down the mountain, even with bent chain links and no tools required.
One thing I've added to my "on the go" tool kit, is one of those tiny KEY knives. It's a fold out knife the size and shape of a key, even fits on a keychain, and if you sharpen this well when you buy a new one it's a very capable mini knife. I've had to use one several times since I've started carrying it, and have given them to a few of my biking friends. It cuts patches to size, cuts zip ties, cuts tape, we had to cut a piece of plastic one time & it cut that well, many uses. ~JSV
Try 'vacuum sealing' zip lock bags by sucking on a straw through a small hole at the top before you close the bag. This keeps everything in place and prevents stuff from rattling around and smushing together during a ride
Hey Seth... As a suggestion, how about a video about the most important things you think people should take on a ride? I went through your video history and it appears you've never done one like that. I know others have, but I'm curious about your take on it. What do you take with you on every ride? What makes you feel well-prepared for anything you might reasonably expect to experience on the trail?
A buddy of mine recomended to apply silicon shine (on a clean, dry bike) to prevent dirt from sticking to easily. Never tried it, but im sure I will someday
3:04 As a bike mechanic that deals a lot with things that someone tried to fix on their own, not knowing what he's doing we have a saying.. hammer doesn't ask, hammer does. The other day I had to take off a cheap ass grip shift that was stuck for good. Some years ago I would've tried to save it. Now I don't have the patience. Hammer time.
Without all the home mechanics i would not be an avid cycler. So thanks Seth for your videos. P.S. i think FDA has ruled it illegal for advertisements to claim eggs as nutritious, but no matter, them nutrients come from toast and avocados
On the bottom of a Rockshox fork you can pull out the rebound adjuster and use it as a small Allen wrench. This works on small bolts like the ones on grips. I was hoping you could put this in the next bike hacks video!
That rear axle demonstration makes me really glad that all of my bike wheels have regular hex bolts there instead of anything recessed. Sure, those can be stripped too, but it would take a LOT to pull that off unintentionally given how rarely I take my wheels off.
I laughed at the banana reese's peanut butter cup in a tortilla, but I will probably try that now. I bet that would be a great energy fix on the trail.
Try a rental bike, or if you want t buy, think of a used bike. In this case you often get really good value for money.´, though you need to do some repairments maybe.
here’s a hack for you if you want to ride with minimum gear and need to carry an air canister, you can attach the canister to your bike by using one of those hand pump holders which mount underneath your bottle cage.
