Bike Check #48 Gary Fisher Advance Disc

Hey pedal bashers! This time we are checking out an older Gary Fisher Advance Disc 26er mtb! It's easy to recognize the iconic Gary Fisher paint job on this one, I love the metallic blue! This one is in great shape and would be easy to turn into a commuter/bikepacking/or gravel bike. The components are all original and work perfect. Was not sure if original tires, if they are, they have been kept in great shape with no rotting. Another surprising feature was the 3rd bottle cage mount in the down tube! Really enjoyed working on this bike and making the video! Hope you enjoy, thanks!

Tech #3 Chain Replacement

Просмотров 95Месяц назад

Hey fellow bike DIY'ers! This time we are doing a chain check and chain replacement! There are probable better videos of this out there, I have enjoyed the other two tech videos I put together so since I was already replacing a chain, why not do a video?! As I state, the chain checker tool is fairly accurate for up to 10-sp drivetrains, would not use for 11 & 12-sp drivertrains. The chain break...

Bike Check #47 Trek Emonda 6 ALR Pro

Просмотров 68Месяц назад

Hey there weight weenies! Sorry, I can't help myself with road bike videos. Anyways, we have a really nice Trek Emonda ALR 6 Pro road bike for the bike check. This is a race ready aluminum frame machine, according to Trek. It's really light and stiff, I was impressed as how light the frame is and that carbon is not the only option for competing. This one has some changes from stock, usually you...

Bike Check #46 Cannondale CAAD 10 5

Hey roadies! We are checking out a nice Cannondale CAAD 10 (5 or 105 submodel). I like these older road bikes with good components, they last a long time with proper maintenance and replacing parts as needed. This one has quality components all around, including solid Shimano wheels. Only thing i'm not so sure is the Tektro brakes, wish they could of been Shimano as well. Besides the ugly bar t...

Tech #2 Disc Brake Rotor and Pads Replacement

Просмотров 90Месяц назад

Hey fellow shredders! This time we are looking at a recent disc rotor and brake pad replacement for a Trek Stache that I had been working on and also doing Bike Check video. The reason I decided to change out those parts is because the rotor and pads had become contaminated with mineral oil at some point and once that penetrates, it will not go away and the squealing was horrible! Only thing to...

Bike Check #44 Specialized Roll Elite

Просмотров 70Месяц назад

Hey my cruising riders! This time we are checking out this very nice Specialized Roll Elite. It's several years old, but in excellent shape and with with great components. I think my description in video sums up this bike, it is the cadillac of cruiser bikes! Not only does it have 9-speed drivetrain and hydraulic brakes, but it has suspension seatpost and a threaded bottorm bracket. Bike is the...

Hey my upright riders! We are checking out this Giant Cypress DX in like new condition. This is my first experience with an updated Cypress. As I mentioned, there are plenty of older Cypress in the market, but this is a refreshing update with disc brakes and a 2x. Not much else to say on this bike. The market for this bike is those wanting entry level market, but wanting an upright ride which s...

Bike Check #42 Liv Alight 2 Disc

Просмотров 1553 месяца назад

Hey there fellow riders. Today we are checking out this Liv Alight 2 DD Disc. I learned that DD stands for Double Diamond frame, so i'm constantly learning new things too! This is a clean looking and good component spec'ed hybrid. The drivetrain is different than specified in official Liv/Giant website, but it seems to work ok. It is a little clunky, it gets the job done though. I like the colo...

Hey there! Haven't uploaded bike checks in some time, but have been actually riding more myself. Anyway, today we are checking out this Trek Dual Sport 2 hybrid, 2022 Gen 4 model. The main items that stand out for me on the bike are the newer generation Altus and Acera derailleurs and shifters. Shimano and other manufacturers are constantly developing new tech (mostly on their higher end groups...

Man I really enjoyed making this video! Fair warning, the first 10 minutes are most informative about wheel upgrade and driver swap, second half is me rambling! Anyway, fellow shredders, this video focuses on a wheel upgrade for my Trek Roscoe 9 and the driver swap needed to have matching components. Hope this is informative and explains some of the common compatibility issues with mountain bik...
