  • Today we'll look at mountain bike tools that live on or inside of your bike. By having all the essentials on hand, you eliminate the need for a backpack on short rides. I can get on board with that!

    Although One Up and i9 supplied their tools for review, I had to spend my money on the rest of these. So I’d like to thank my Patrons for making that possible. For two dollars per month they support this channel, and in return I give them a one hour ask me anything podcast, premier screening, uncensored videos, and best of all exclusive episodes.

    As a follow up to the video, I actually decided to use the One Up EDC instead. After examining the Synchros more closely, reading comments, and doing some tests, I found that the pump is not as effective as it seems. To fill the same tire with my Crankbrothers pump takes less than HALF the strokes, and with the EDC pump, a third. Furthermore, the Synchros does not have a 6mm, which may or may not matter to some. I still think the Synchros is a good product, but the EDC is worth the extra weight and bulk to me.

    My mistake on the Specialized. Apparently you can just buy their bottle cage and use MOST of the stuff. If I do a follow up I’ll include these products.

    Dang it! This video makes me want to go back into mountain biking again. With all the new toys that you feature... I'm very much tempted. When the mountain bike first came out in the 90's, at a young age, I was on it. Stopped when I became a family man. Now that my daughter is older, I think I can make a comeback just for the fun of it.

    Instead of getting a cage like the topeak ninja I just get a inch wide piece of tube and slide it around my bottle cage to the same spot as the ninja is. It can keep a large multitool without any issues and it is free if you have an old tube lying around.

    if I need 2 water bottles I just put the canister in my jersey pocket. Never know it’s there.
    As far as water from a stream goes, I only use Geigerrig/Aquamira hydration packs with a filter on it. The only brand I trust after landing in the hospital with another brand.
    As far as the urine test, go to RUclips and look at the video of the runner who tested Geigerrig’s filters with a hydration pack full of pee.

    things I take on a long distance (4-8 hours depending) ride - 3 liters of water, about three different multi-tools, two patch repair kits (tubes bro), a high calorie food store (fruit works wonders), torch, bike lights, jacket, a phone, a powerbank for said phone, cash, ID if something really bad happens, a roll of toilet paper (for science) and a travel first-aid kit. Bear in mind that I ride alone and I don't have a car so some of these things are there because of those reasons. It's also super tricky to travel with so much weight in a backpack, but these things I carry from bad experience without them and have saved me a lot of grief, so these tool ideas here are amazing and I'll have to invest in some of them.

    Love your videos man keep up the good work !!! I just routed my first dropper post in a trance 3 frame that is not supposed to accept a internal routing. i went inside the frame around the bottom braket an up the seat tube.
    I made myself something similar to the parktool routing blue string with a piece of string, a small washer and two tiny but very strong magnets I had.
    I glued one of the magnet to the washer, tied up the rope in the hole of the washer and voilà !
    Also GRAVITY helps a lot to route around the BB. I turned the bike almost upside down so when I let go the magnet from the outside, the inside one would naturally fall in the BB toward the seat tube. then i fished the first magnet with the second one again using the same trick (washer + super glue).
    I don't know if it is a hack or more juste technique but i thought I would share.

    The EDC plus a Specialized SWAT top cap chain tool is a nice setup. I also really like the SpeedSleeve Ranger for tube, co2, inflator, money, zip ties, mech hanger. Does not rattle and is easy to remove and use. That said, the EDC is not great in wet environs. The bits corrode quite badly.

    Finally! Someone who bites back towards people who don't know that velcro is the first brand name of a hook-and-loop system. Fun fact: In Swedish, it's called kardborre (burdock) after the burdock plant that inspired the Swiss inventor to create the attachment system. Germany, Norway and probably other Germanic languages also use their respective word for burdock to name the system.
    Unfortunately, since many companies use English as business language, "hook-and-loop" is commonly replaced by local pronunciations of "velcro" (just like "mesh", "webbing", "foam", "tarp" and "buckle" replaces domestic words that have worked perfectly before). I want to say that is likely because of laziness, lack of imagination and ignorance ;)
    Do I sound bitter? Good :D

    Hello Seth. I would just want to add another tip. On the handlebars you can take the cap off, and put a tyre plunger with a bacon strip already with it. Then if you have a puncture just take that plunger straight out of the handlebars and plug the leek then inflate with a pump, and you'll be back on the trails in just seconds.

    Your videos are always top notch...the RUclips MTB editing master! On some of the less expensive bottle cages, no matter what you do the bottle still doesn't fit perfectly snug, and it will rattle a bit at times or even try to fall out on big hits. I take a thin can koozie and cut the bottom out of it and slide it over the water bottle. It makes it fit snug, prevents ANY rattle, AND helps to keep your water cool for a little longer. Win, win, win. :-)

      That isn't an equivalent comparison. Velcro is a brand name for a type of hook-and-loop, just like Coca-Cola is a brand name for a type of soda. It'd be like calling any type of soda "Coke" (which some people incorrectly do).

    I'm a fan of my One Up EDC pump. I like that it's always on the bike so there's no thinking involved if I ride packless, and if I ride someone else's bike I can just bring the pump with me and be covered. The storage container fits a few zip ties, a brake pad, patch kit. If you go with the CO2 caniser, the end of the pump unscrews to be a CO2 inflator head.

If there’s one thing I would love to do but don’t since it’s too much it cold camel pack, and as many waters in cages as possible. Too much hassle and weight. That straw and bottle combo is life saver!!! Brilliant. Life straw needs to advertise that in EVERY shop and they’d sell out

    The topeak Looks like a Walmart version of the specialized swat tool. Their cages are also great if you’re one of the people who has a bike that doesn’t have enough clearance to pull the bottle out of the top of the cage. And they work with any bike. Mine has stayed on the bottom of the cage no matter what I’ve done to it. Also they have a chain tool that fits in the headset

    Glad you mentioned the specialized there, I have a 2018 specialized and utilize the hell out of SWAT, and have the chain tool remover in the stem. I was wondering why it was not part of the review. I did not realize it would not work on more bikes, which is a shame and a market Specialized would be wise to adapt broadly.

    • @SethsBikeHacks
      @SethsBikeHacks  6 лет назад +1

      I think this was my mistake. Apparently you can just buy their bottle cage and make it work, although some models work in an internal compartment which is proprietary.

    • @lforrest14
      @lforrest14 6 лет назад

      My multi-tool is connected via the cage, while some of the s-works have it in a seat connection. It does not have a chain tool though, I had to purchase separately the specialized tool that goes in the stem. The set up you have shown on your trail bike has it all in once place, that is nice. Though I do like being able to put the tube, pump and tubeless repair kit inside the downtube of the bike.

    If you were disappointed in the Ninja T8+, you could use the Ninja TC Mountain. It uses the Mini 20 Pro if you need a tool with more ... tools. (Chain tool etc.)
    If you need the tire levers, you can change the tool-cage to the one fitting the bigger tool from the Ninja T Mountain.
