That placement of the ruler against the outer plate (@3:36) for alignment is brilliant.

Yes Please. Advanced front derailleur 'how to'. Many thanks.

Very cool..a bike mechanic names Ducky showed me how to bend the front derellier back in 75! Nice to see it's alive and well in the video!

Thank you sir

Definitely do an advanced front derailleur video please. You may even need to split that into two videos!

Wait, how long you been doing this?😂😂 seriously though, you’ve inspired me to have another go at improving my front mech function❤

I thought grease was used for moving parts and copperslip for non moving?

Excellent video this. (And advanced front-derailleur manipulation vid - yes please!)

Thanks for your videos. I'm always looking for good information, to be a better home bike mechanic.👍

Brilliant... many thanks. I have found correct front derailleur settings to be critically important when using wider range touring triples...to get a good shift up or down, everything has to be spot on. I wish I had seen your video ten years ago which would have prevented all the fits and starts of self-learning.

Fd adjustment = dark art

Thank you.

If my rear derailer falls down the chain and it does not go up,what should i do???

Thank you for this video it’s very helpful

I don't think we can get GT-85 in the states, but I know a lot of bike shops us tri-flow and it sounds similar because I know that too has ptfe.

Great tip Mr Brockley

"oblivious while blasting house music". what a line! But what was there reasoning for shortening the gear adjusted on the RD? Please dont be weight...

mines straight from the shop !

Nice job. Thanks for the pro tips!

Just subbed. Quality videos 👌 first thing I did was go out and buy gt85 😄

Life saver, just replaced crank gear and chain... Time to replace cassette.

My chain cassette are brand new, so this really provides no help.

Hi there, can you advise? I’ve just replaced my cassette, chain and rear derailleur. All Shimano 11 speed 105. But mainly on the large chain ring and under pressure/incline, the chain jumps quite badly. I’ve been told the teeth maybe warn on the large ring.

Turn off the music..!

Magic!

Chapeau for this helpful info, squire Bring on Stage 14 😊

Outstanding content, thanks. Just a bit difficult to understand for not fluent english speaking people 😊!

I really like your videos. I have been a shop mechanic and now retired do all my own bike work. I am puzzled why you show a womens breast mannequin in the intro. Your excellent videos could be off-putting to some people because of this one item. Keep up the excellent repair/tuning videos . Thanks !

Aha moment - overshifting up the cassette is likely an H screw problem. Hah!

thanks man, great info for us home bike mechanics

Great Info. Thank-you!!

Great tutorial. Thank you.❤

Hi. Thank you for this from a new subscriber that loves to tinker with his bikes. Your no nonsense approach is great. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

super helpful Ash

There were moments while watching this when I saw equations floating in front of me and I could feel knots tightening inside my skull. However, by the end it all came together for me. I have to admit I've never thought as much about the B screw. Now I will. Thanks, Ashley!

buy a recumbent -the chain is 12 foot long and last for years

Fantastic video. I have been mountain biking 30 years and I still learned something. I use my chain checker regularly but not in the largest sprocket on the cassette. It does put the chain under more tension and gives a more accurate reading just as you say. Thank you very much, that is how I will check the chain from now on.

tried this and my chain and cassette started rusting due to no real lube on it:/

Nice job here from BB, Ah Ha factors: 1) leading edge of cogs curved to (cassette/chainrings) sharp point, 2) Don't over oil the chain! and keep it clean of muck. Sometimes I get a skip of the chain "when standing on the pedals" during a power sprint, up a short incline. Also, I'll get the chain checker, Thanks from Fullerton, California

I have an old Giant chromoly frame with a mishmash of components. It will skip out of first to second under extreme load. I dont have all my bike tools at that location so I just live with it. Pretty sure it is just a bit of frame flex, as the wire is routed under the bottom bracket. It only happens at a 100 yard long extremely steep hill, which starts at the bottom of a river gorge, and of course starts with a turn just by the bridge. The way to get across, is to put the gear in first riding down the gorge, and let the brakes up when nearing the bottom for max speed, but not so much speed that you fall in the river. Then, spin as fast as possible with as light a touch on the pedals as possible, to get to the top, and after that take it easy for a minute to bring the pulse down from hummingbird to human levels. Any deviation from this method will mean walking that hill, or worse, go for a swim.

The guy knows his stuff but I find the music a bit of pain. Like trying to pay attention to the details of a divorce settlement while the Judge calls it out on the dance floor to an ear splitting baseline of WE ARE FA MI LY.

Annoying music 😮 can't watch 😮

this would qualify both breaking news and braking news

actually this reminds me to buy a couple pairs of rim brake calipers to stash away

I’m probably the only one who switched the front disc from 180mm to 160mm on my xc mountain bike. All other tips worked so good in reducing the noise. Love your videos, thanks!

I will try your rim brake set up method. It may give me my braking back. Good video as always

Really really good video! With lots of infos you don’t get elsewhere!! Thank you!!

Thank you , sir,,,,excellent video...

unlistenable with music

Haha moment: once in a while, rotate a bit your chain rings relative to the crank. No wait… that’s too much work. Note that on some casettes, cogs 1-2-3 maybe also 4 can be replaced: uses these as much as possible. Another note: I have over oiled one of my bikes with plenty of motor oil and it lasted forever. Never clean, always oil, excess and gunk falls off. The bike is now 50 years old, a Peugeot touring bike, on its original chain.
