    I’ve been watching both channels for quite some time. I don’t even ride a mountain bike. I ride a recumbent trike because I’m old and disabled. I love riding your mountain bikes vicariously through the camera. I get a really good vibe from you two.

    8:00 good tip to prevent cross-threading: hold the piece in position and start by unscrewing it. You'll feel a click when the end of the thread aligns, then start screwing in.

    You should do a video on your favorite accessories like helmet, water bottle, water bottle cage , gloves, and so on you like to use when you are racing. There are a lot of choices out there.

    Seeing the head of the guide cable poke its head out of the port makes some of us sigh with relief knowing it passed two other cables successfully.

    I put cable housings in segments and join them with dual sided ferrules. Makes dropper housing much easier to thread thru. Also allows you to adjust housing length without pulling the cable all the way through. Small price to pay for easier install without a second or third pair of hands.

    Beside the colour, wich is just ok, I have to tell you Ms Syd and Mr Macky, that looks like like one heck of a XC frame!! And bike! And I'll definitelly be looking at Ari when I complete my set of bikes for all kinds of range of use! Because it looks amazing! I ride a Rockrider hard tail with a sid Ultimate Race day 120mm fork for XCO and I fell in love with Enduro so I just built a gorgeous Specialized Stumpjumper Evo 150/160mm and I'm now waiting for spacers for an Acros headset to begin the build of a Propain Tyee Cf 160/180mm but...I'l need a good 120/120mm bike for all that these 3 are "inadequate" for. And my heaviest bike will be the Stumpy with 13,57kgs. Without pedals! Lol! The Propain is completely full of carbon "to the teeth" so it will be lighter. And I was very encouraged by the final weight of your bike! Let me ask you this...Don't you miss good 4 piston brakes, even when racing XCO? I know that 2 piston XTR brakes are very good but, when it comes to breaking, for me, only the best! And I've noticed you use Shimano components but...a Sram G2 Ultimate set is only 444gr. Magura Trail Sl, 460gr...For me there's no replacement for very good brakes. Best wishes from Coimbra, Portugal! I'm a big fan of yours! Cheers!

    Oomph. Truck tire expert taught me to stand tall, even lean away, with eye protection when airing up a tubeless tire. Seriously, even bike tires explode off the rim. Yes, infrequent, but risk of even a tiny piece causing trauma to the eye is a devastating outcome. And face injury is never nice.
    Big gap to an otherwise excellent vid.

    Hey guys, do you have any tips for holding the fork in place during installation when you don’t have Macky there to hold it?

    • @sydfixesbikes
      @sydfixesbikes  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you aren't an octopus (which would be really useful) you can put a stool or something similar under the fork after you slide it through the head tube then lower the rack if you need to so that the fork is resting on it.

    Aren't you supposed to fit the olive on the hose before pressing in the insert pin?

    • @sydfixesbikes
      @sydfixesbikes  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You can do either. Brand new Shimano brakes actually come with the olive in the lever so unless you want to fish it out, which is a pain, you just cut the line, install the barb and then press it into the lever, making sure you get it through the olive, then tighten it.

    What’s a good technique to size your chain on your e-fat bike. 126 link is to large and 116 is to small. It’s been yrs since I changed the original chain and
    want to ask y’all.
    Thanks Dave

    • @sydfixesbikes
      @sydfixesbikes  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Depends on if it's 11 or 12 speed. For both, wrap the chain around the chainring and biggest cog (skip going through the derailleur) then add 2 links (11 speed) or 4 links (12 speed). Always go longer if it's between links.
