  • Since the very beginning of my channel, Park Tool and I have been very friendly with one another. They helped set up my shop, and from time to time I run into these guys at trade shows. On my way home from the West coast, it seemed like a good opportunity to pay Park Tool a visit to joke around for a few days, collaborate on some videos, and ride some trails in Duluth.
    For the sake of transparency this was not technically a sponsored video, but you could consider it as such since they paid my way to Minnesota. I was just stoked to meet everyone there and get in some good riding.

    A friend of mine asked me to bring a bike to a trade show for some demonstrations. I thought my commute bike was in pretty good working order till I handed it over to Calvin. Within seconds he found stuff wrong with it and was thrilled to show everyone. Happy to say Calvin has worked on my commute whip!

    Park Tool is awesome. Totally overhauled my hard tail this weekend, and I've got their tools and videos to thank for it. Sure, the cost of tools isn't fun, but learning to do it myself was, and saving on the repair costs isn't something to sneeze at in the long run. Cheers all around
