Big thanks! :D

Loved the build! Glad to see the followup ride video!

Great information bro, I appreciate it. I absolutely hate mushrooms. Like the typical ones you find at supermarkets. You think this will taste good for someone who hates mushrooms?

Living in NL for 4 years, it's fantastic. Except the scooters. They need to be banned... We have electric bikes, and pedelecs if you need faster. Nothing justifies the loudness of the scooters

A very nice collection! It's true it is best to buy what one needs the most. Myself being guilty of sometimes buying 'ínteresting stuff' off second hand auction sites and really not using it. Keeping it small makes one more flexible, and requires some creativity to do some jobs anyway. It is a hobby for me anyway. Actually it is quite hard to make money with bicycle repairs here in the land of the more bicycles then humans... Btw also love your videos on my country.

Nice workbench ! I don't have one myself, but it is the first thing I am going to buy once I have some money. And I agree with the vice, you really need that if you work on bikes a lot.

what tools do i need to unscrew the three screws? Two are torx (I believe) but the other is somethign else. All really small. If you could let me know what exact tools + sizes are needed that would be suuuuuper appreciated. i'm trying to fix mine and local bike shops have now appointments for several weeks (I tried 4 stores)

Yellow bikes are great. I don't love the colour yellow, but a bike that was yellow from the factory has yet to disappoint me. I own quite a few yellow bikes now.

30 km per hr = 18mph

You need the Park tool crank puller with the black handle. Is the ccp-44 tool. Is for Octalink, ISIS Drive and ISIS Overdrive 👍

Get 2 metres of pipe, 2 20cm plumbers hooks attach it where the bikes are. 10 S shaped hooks twisted 90 degrees. One end over the pipe other through a wheel. Bonza, you've got a sliding 10 bike rack like mine.

You’ve got a lot packed in there! Very compact and practical. How much time do you spend in there? Is your main objective to refurbish bikes to sell?

Too bad your viewers are all dutch people circejerking haha, including me

NOOOOOOOO!!!! Ive been looking for one of those and now your going to try to make it into something else....just buy something else then!!! Dont sell him an old Porsche....he will try and make it into a dump truck.

How about we give motorists a button, they can only proceed once they hit a button. they are the ones in control of heavy machinery, why is the safety of how they negligently control heavy machinery, placed on the people who are at danger?

The US never learns, not even with ten white bicycles at a crossing.

Your lack of research on a £500 tent aside 😀, an initial pitch with no prep is a great proxy for the day you arrive at a campsite, dog tired, failing light, pouring rain, and then erecting whilst attempting to keep the inner dry. I have the 2P Nemo and really like it - but had to practice setting it up a couple of times. On my previous tent, I used the frame to stretch out the footprint first. This made it easy to see the lay of the land. Only when I was happy, I would retrieve the inner/fly from the tent bag and attach to the frame. I am seriously considering adding eyelets to my stupidly expensive footprint to get similar functionality.

They're called Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons, or RRFBs for short. They have been shown to increase driver yielding behavior by up to 90%. these are NOT Hawk / Pedestrian Hybrid Beacons. The two different systems are used in different situations depending on the Speeds, AADT, distance crossed at once, etc.

I don't know the exact law in Michigan, but it seems like if the pedestrian took one step onto the crosswalk, the drivers would be "required to" (but wouldn't) stop. It seems bonkers that they would spend all this money to not even stop traffic. It's jarring to have a sign for pedestrians that functionally codifies that drivers don't have to follow the law. But year, these HAWK beacon things seem less than worthless. Similar ones that trigger an actual red light would probably cost the same. Having nothing would almost be better than these because at least then pedestrians wouldn't get the impression they're protected.

I think you mentioned it but seriously some kind of a sensing system for the walkers/cyclists (More the cyclists certainly) would make a big difference. Having a cyclist who's making 20 plus stop to zero MPH is asinine when you consider he's often got a green light in that direction! All of this feels very typical in that no one wants to inhibit the driving or the cars. Not even the idea of making it a less dangerous crossing situation.

Hello, I was wondering if you had any idea if these would fit the trek dual sport 2 gen 5. Thanks a bunch!

Yes. I find this kind of stuff quite interesting. I’m not sure if that’s unusual! I’m from Adelaide South Australia. Although there are HUGE amounts of unoccupied land in the state, obviously urban development probably makes economic sense. So the same sort of thing happens here. Adelaide is quite a bit larger than Lansing but the majority of the population of the state is either in Adelaide or a few larger country centres. In my research I discovered that Lansing and Adelaide share about the same time for European settlement. You have a good knowledge of flora. You mentioned the Monarch butterfly which has found a home here in Australia. The milkweed that it feeds on seems to have arrived at the same time. Anyway they think they’ve been here for over 150 years. In my own suburban environment there are remnants of farms that existed before the urban sprawl started. All the farming just moved further out. Those pines had the appearance of Norfolk Island pines which was quite a popular introduced species here. I’m not sure if they are those or not.

Nice build! I have a blue Grappler and am 5-11” and bought a large. It fits great and is very comfortable with stock parts. I sat on a medium and could feel that everything felt a bit too close but everyone is different. This fall I plan to swap out to 12sp and better brake system.

Inexpensive panniers from ALDI or LIDL (when they are available) work really well, as does an inexpensive dynamo light kit from aliexpress (if you upgrade the wiring, don't use what is supplied!). Great bikes, I'm going to add a front wheel pedal assist e-bike kit to mine, to help when taking off, in a headwind, and when loaded. Enjoy!

random dude in city he doesnt know "nobody knows" you could just ask someone

Thanks, very interesting review. This would be a great touring bike, since it has all the mounts. One complaint about this bike frame I heard, is that it is difficult to mount a rear rack, because the eyelets at the back are in a " special " place. They look like mounts for bottle cages, but who would put bottle cages there? Anyway, a special bike indeed !

You need to get a real Omafiets from Gazelle or Batavus!

nice build and Knipex pvc pipe nice plumbing skill as well

a pity Surly's framesets are so expensive here in EU - I was looking for Troll or Ogre for years now ;)

Thanks, I really like the idea behind this frame, except those dropouts don't make sense to me. Why can't Surly make normal thru-axle dropouts? I really do not see what advantage these dropouts have. Anyway, thanks for the video, I am looking forward to that other bike you have coming (Stooges?? ) Will be better I think. Cheers.

OMG… I feel like a complete idiot. My shifting had been garbage for a while and I thought it was bc I had 3000 miles on the drivetrain (though I did replace chains frequently). I bought a new derailer hanger, no luck. New cassette, no luck. New derailer, no luck. Check chain length, no luck (though it was 2links too short). Well yeah… when I replaced the derailer I ran the cable the same BACKWARDS way as the previous derailer!!! Such a simple fix for my bone-headed mechanic work. Everything shifts great now. 🤦‍♂️

this review really sucked

You don’t use the hook with the ball point pen ?

Very practical tool. That saw is pretty efficient. Always wanted that type of pocket knife combo. Maybe I’ll get one.

This is not a good bike. You want a bike where the gear cable runs through the frame and no hand breaks. Cables break when you park it in a bicycle rack and it gets stuck behind someone elses steering.

Those dips in the cycle paths are mainly meant to slow down the scooters =)

Just a little tip when using the escalator. There is no need to use the brakes. As soon as the whole bike is on the escalator, turn the steering wheel 90 degrees. The bike is then not able to go anywhere anymore, you can even let hands loose of the bike.

Johnsons Baby oil is the best! Using it for over a year! Never failed

Yo Well done, good info bro!!

Looks to be a nice setup. Is that storage area quite close to where you live? Are those other units used just for storage?

Nice video thanks. How do you find it comfort wise?

I wish more Dutch bicycles were sold in Canada 🇨🇦. I an so upset with the high cost of everything and the bicycles cost so much I may as well by a used motorcycle

Yeah, the car wash is "Tommy's Express Car Wash". I was looking at maps. It's all kind of depressing. I get you. Probably a lot of this has to do with the city not wanting to have to pay for the upkeep of a park compared to the upkeep of the previous golf course with the presumption that a park would be (should be) free access to the public, while a golf course would of had greens fees, cart rentals, and money from sales (pro shops) coming in all the time. They just wanted to be done with it and use the sale money from the land for other things. Very shortsighted of them. Also totally agree about the old shopping mall and those in general. You've got something already there for business and redevelopment without tearing up the open spaces. With the housing concerns, yes there needs to be that for people to live, but when too much of that is done, too massively, in brand new from the ground up areas, obviously there's a big profit motivation in play and it's going to mean more cars and more traffic and a lower quality of life. Even a more hazardous quality of life on a bicycle.

1. why do you need so much hot water? 2. I am having trouble getting the asymmetrical pattern to place the valve hole in the correct orientation? any tips? Mavic xc1025 key spoke is the second hole after the valve hole.

The tunnel Amsterdam can only dream of!

5:08 The speed limit only applies to motorized vehicles, so you can speed all you like on a pushbike (ebikes max out at 25, so even though they're technically motorized it's moot)

The first 5 minutes of this videos is world class. I watched it with my friends, and some of them just saw a black screen, but a few of us watched in amazement. It is then that I realized that not everybody has the paranormal gift. The video went really downhill after that.

Yes. Black for me first 5 mins. Did you wrap the camera with bar tape? 😊😊

Can it be that first 5:26 is black? Something went wrong in exporting/uploading?

I have to check this out, as a swiss Konstanz is not that far away... If you are already so close to Switzerland: maybe you check out Luzern? It's not a particular "bikey" city but it's improving. And there is a wonderful bike road called Freigleis that was implemented on top of an abandonded rail track path. And if you follow it, you can cycle along the shores of the lake and across the Lopper tunnel (Seestrasse) which is very unique and beautiful. Oh, and you could also cycle to Emmenbrücke via Xylophonweg - approach it from Bruchstrasse which is a "Fahrradstrasse" too, one with beautiful colorful houses and cute little shops. Xylophonweg (a dedicated bike street) is just on the side of river Reuss - a beautiful cycle trip to the industrial suburb of Emmenbrücke.
