I just bought an Aventure 2. Like the maintenance and repair type video. I live in a mountainous area in New Mexico and the hills are no problem for this bike.
Thanks for the tutorial. I found it especially helpful because my e-bike has the same Zoom hydraulic brakes. Earlier I had considered ordering some replacement pads from Amazon to have ready for when needed. On Amazon I was struggling to find which was the correct ones to order. I resigned myself that I'd probably need to remove the existing ones (still original & working fine) to see what I'd need to order. So far I had resisted because I really didn't know how challenging a job it would be. (In such situations I procrastinate even more than usual). Thanks to the video I now know what to order (easy) and know the replacement job is easy-peasy. I like easy! Thanks!
Thanks! Glad I can help. Semi metallic does have a bit of a better bite but try out different ones to see what you like. Also, bleeding makes all the difference if there is air in the line. Happy thanksgiving!
It seems as though recentering the brakes and adjusting the inner non-piston side of these single-piston brakes needs to be part of replacing the pads.
Thanks for this video, I only have about 600 miles miles on my step through Adventure, but I live in hilly area and by brakes are getting thin. Looks like taking the front wheel off isn't necessary or am I missing something?
It's a Suntour SR SP12 Suspension Seat Post, 27.2mm with Qfauto Road Bike Seat Post Sleeve Adapter, 27.2 mm to 30.4mm. Got on Amazon for about $80 plus sleeve at $10. Great investment!!

That’s awesome. Sometimes I want some mountains but Florida is very flat. Enjoy the bike!
2400 miles on my adventure. About to change my brakes for the second time. I live in Florida where it is very flat. Great video.

I liked your video it was very informative. I would have preferred that you showed the pin removal and clean up procedures.
Thank you. Have to edit some stuff or it would be a long video!
Great video!
Thank you Baydog!
Thank you for the video. Coming up on 500 miles. Originally got it for pleasure, but been using it some to commute. Price of gas.
Nice!! Yeah, miles come up quick. Great commuting bike. Enjoy!
Thank you for sharing. Just got my Adventure yesterday! I know this will come in handy in the future. Would love to see more maintenance videos.

Yes, I did do that. I showed that in another video. Let me know if this is not correct! Happy riding.
link to adjust rear brake cable? Only 200 miles on bike and rear brake are not griping enough.

What type of seat do you have on the bike?

@@Marvelofebikes Thank you, I saw those in your other video. I'm asking about the actual seat. What seat is that? It looks very comfortable
