This might explain the recent uptick in subs over here! It’s fun to see all the butthurt ex-BikeFarmers in the comments. You’re far more likeable than me. I’ll keep sending them your way! ✌️❤️🚲🔧 PS: I also cut my hair and donated it to charity once!
I would like to say one is not better than the other. I love both channels. As a home mechanic I have learned so much from both of you. I love the different perspectives you both have. You guys are both great! Your videos on the bike industry is great. I live in Iowa and my area is very bike snobbish. I love you both have the attitude to just get on your bikes and enjoy. Not always have the latest and greatest but bringing the average person to the recreation. Thanks for the channel.
EVERYONE should be on a 🚲 regardless of religion, politics, sex, region, nationality, or heritage. Keep what divides us away from 🚲 riding. Lets all enjoy a 🚲 ride together and leave what divides us behind us in the dust.
Wow, I at least know the difference between Colorado and Wisconsin. And the different shop setups. Both are good and for different reasons, both of you keep up the good work.
Classy Comparison! I like both channels. The new look is way more professional, I don't know if it will translate into more authoritative but hair grows back!
Watch both your channels, like them both. Different perspectives, different operations, and I love your perspective views on the cycling industry. Very insightful, and thank you very much, from Southern California.
Thanks for clearing that up as RUclips brought me to you and honestly thought you were the bike farmer 😂 anyway, lovely sweet reaction from your children 😊
Loving the rant, as a former bike pro I am here in my bike cave designing a motorcycle style rear wheel stand for my eMTB with stuff from a hardware store that will work with my B.O.B. trailer mounts. B.O.B. trailers are awesome for a sweet spin to my local markets.
You be you my friend. I’ll watch you both. Never got you confused. And I think I like working on bikes just as much as riding them. And maybe a bit more. I do live tools, bike tools, clock tools, Watch tools…and tools to fix tools!
You’re very spot on about your audience and we like your content. Why else would I spend the last few hours waxing my bikes. Now I’m on the hunt for some ceramic coating. What have I become. Definitely a bike farmer influenced by I know a guy. I better seek counseling. Thanks man. The new look fits you perfectly
Dude, you’re the best love luck you’re the one I started watching first still number one man. I enjoy your content. Enjoy your knowledge. Keep up the good work.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Personally I prefer your channel and style dude 😊 I don’t think you need to change buddy.. I think it was the look with the beard and hair but wow I was surprised when it was all gone 😮 great channel 😊😊 love the outtakes at the end.. Pete 🚴🏻👍
Thanks for watching from the beginning! I hope you have seen me improve over the last year. I'm always working on making better content for our cycling community. Have a great ride!
Been recovering from a hernia repair. Very little riding. Today, I just might be recovered enough to smash the pedals in earnest. Better. The ugly weather will be here (Michigan) before you know it.
Thought you might do that! I did that once shaved off my bearsad so my kids see without a beard. Some of my work colleagues took days to notice the absense! Acknowledge that there was sometuing different!! Three days before he realized no beard!!
Yesterday, I watched Bike Farmer do a $400.00 re-do on a Trek 8000 and I thought that you had changed the name of your channel......later realizing that this was another guy. Seems both your presentations are similar. Great homage to bike farmer by you shaving but I say......grow it back.
Try again! Thought you might do that! I did that once shaved off my beard so my kids see without a beard. Some of my work colleagues took days to notice the absense! Acknowledge that there was sometuing different!! Three days for to realize no beard!!
I retired from my bike shop in 2016. I never got any traction on my horrible unedited RUclips videos. I still do the videos and still have my Facebook page...I still build bikes, (but no Huffy's) I still enjoy bicycles immensely. lol...nobody seems to notice my video's. I got like 30 Subscribers... MY TAKE ON YOUR CHANNEL: LET YOUR KIDS GET INVOLVED. 12 YEAR OLD KIDS PREDICT THE FUTURE. YOUR KIDS ARE THE PERFECT AGE...GET THEM INTO professional level 😊VIDEO PRODUCTION AND BICYCLES!!!!!!¡!!!!!!!
She's eight now and has a very squirrel-like attention span. But she does show a lot of interest in both the bike part and video production. We're working on a fun kid script of "bike murder on the bike path", basically an abandoned bike that is brought back to life in a fun, kid-friendly way.
Oh great, now The Bike Farmer has to shave off his beard. The look on your poor daughter's face... priceless. How long did it take for them to come around?
@@IKnowAGuyBicycles Wow, The Bike Farmer won't respond to comments unless you put money in the proverbial tin cub. I always enjoy the occasional banter with RUclipsrs. It reminds us that were all human.
Bike farter is a hack...you are a professional. Bike farter is only interested in doing things as fast as possible, taking shortcuts, and covering the whole bike in oil overspray...you, on the other hand are doing things the right way no matter how long it takes.. His videos are somewhat entertaining though and I do enjoy watching them. Keep doing what you are doing and be proud of it!
Bike Farmer made video on anti helmet use when riding bicycles, trying to sell the story helmets would not prevent injuries. I ended subscription, I refuse misinformation, out of their - won't watch his videos anymore. If a helmet costs you $40 or $150 it is well worth it to possibly lessen a brain concussion or closed head trauma.
Helmet safety is HUGE in my book. I even made a couple of videos about them and interviewed a brain injury rehab specialist (Scott) it's a must watch: ruclips.net/video/ve6NoTBxgTw/видео.html
Damn, didn’t know that. He needs to see what happened to my helmet when I carried too much speed into a berm and hit a tree! Finished my ride no problem, but helmet was toast…
Spend less time promoting ceramic products and bike frame restoration. Promote safe cycling including wearing a helmet. Show pre and post ride bike checks and on the ride bike fixes. Focus in detail on one issue to resolve on a bike brought in for repair.

Nice, thanks. It's been one crazy ride for this old bike mechanic.
Well - Maybe your videos are good enough for who they are for.
Now that’s funny 😂
Yep. Hilarious.
I don't know what to tell you to make you feel better about that 👍👀
Ope!
I see what you did there! Clever!

I suulbscribe to both of you all and never could get either of you all confused. Two totally different presentations. Best of luck going forward.

Thanks for watching! You and people like you make this channel.
Come to think of it, I have never seen "Know I Guy" and "Bike Farmer" in the same room. Hmmmmm 🤔
I never thought you were the Bike Farmer.
I enjoy watching you both. I think the algorithm brought me to your page from previous watching bike farmer.
Thanks for watching!
Now hold on !
Bike farmer Never said don’t wear a helmet, go back and watch that episode again
That was a huge transformation! Thanks for going the extra mile.
You nailed it mate. It was the look. Love the channel ❤💪👌👍
Thanks for watching!

I enjoy both of your shows. keep up the great vids. Thanks
Glad you like them!
Wow I kept rewinding and looking at you with the beard and without. Huge surprise. Awesome that you donated your hair.
Interesting video. And yeah, I follow you both and enjoy both channels very much.
You really are rocking those sunglasses with the new look!
THIS video made me smile throughout. Good stuff!

Thanks for watching and for your engagement. It was crazy to go clean-cut again, and I have been shocking friends and family all week.
Beard-off challenge! It's on!😄
Play-Off Beard will Come Back. LOL
The two of you are EQUALLY QUALIFIED. His topics are IMO wayyyy longer than yours.
He seems to be a little taller that's all
Keep up the great work 😊
Amazing transformation!! Hey, I like it.
I remember when I cut my hair....
Must add to that! Work colleague told me not to tell what was different! Would work it out! Three days!
Also my wife at the said I look to young than her after I shaved off my beard for my kids to see without it!! So Ihad to grow it back!!
I think I was one of your first followers. Overjoyed to see your success!

I will, I scare myself every time I walk by a mirror.
Good video - you and Bike farmer can help each other
His channel is doing great, with 50k+ subs; I'm definitely on the chase to blow up like him.
hes the bike farmer but youre the GUY! lesgooo!
Thanks for watching!
Waxed Handlebar Mustache, get it? Handlebars. Seriously, it’s a hook. I decided to subscribe.
I would but "2ND LIFE BIKES" got that down. lol
❤❤❤
Looking fresh brother!
Everyone is diffent
Thats What we need!!
Try again! Thought you might do that! I did that once shaved off my beard so my kids see without a beard. Some of my work colleagues took days to notice the absense! Acknowledge that there was sometuing different!! Three days for to realize no beard!!
Plenty room for both of you.
Yes there is, I just needed a hair cut and wanted to do something fun.
I hunted up that Bike Farmer video. To call it anti-helmet is a really big stretch.
Good to know, thanks for looking it up and sharing.
Used the link to buy some Fiber Grip.
Thank you!
I thought you just had two channels.....funny vid
No you didn't....... Great vid . Love both you guys... Too cool dude. Peace ✌️

I really thought this is the bike farmer channel. 😅
Part of my childhood was on a farm, but not the bike farmer. (Just the Guy)
Hope your daughter recognizes you soon.
nice try, bikefarmer. it’s not even april 1st.
I swear I’m not the Bike farmer. But I’m very flattered that you think I am.
More furniture polish please
(warning: vulgar shop joke) Love that lemon scent air particulate spray on my Bamboo bike...Give it a good rub and it will grow 36" in 24 hours.
Should've kept the beard. But nice transformation.
Its growing, my daughter recognizes me now.
🏆🥇
You do you.
You look way better shaved up !!
Thanks, and thanks for watching!
OK, I bit.
cool
Too shocking, boss!!!
Tell me about it. Took me a week to recognize myself.
You guys are brothers, though, right? 😂
From a different mother. Thanks for watching!

Not totally convinced
Me neither
Who smokes the best weed tho?
Not saying I do, but I do live in Colorado.
I gotta admit I’ve confused you two.
He's not the guy either.
You were twins separated at birth.
You are not fooling us. :P
I never knew my biological father, so you never know...lol
Different noses.
That made my morning!

Helmet shaming is anti-cyclist
I think it was a bit more nuanced than that.
@@pex3 yet many people ignore the nuances and choose to believe I’m anti-helmet so they can get all butt-hurt about it.
Yeah I do not watch that guy. I didn’t like his video on bike mechanics.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
You're much better, IMO. He's an act.
😊 i’m flattered thank you for watching
Spend less time promoting ceramic products and bike frame restoration. Promote safe cycling including wearing a helmet. Show pre and post ride bike checks and on the ride bike fixes. Focus in detail on one issue to resolve on a bike brought in for repair.
Thanks for the suggestions
