if i had a dollar for every tool I've had to buy during a spur of the moment ass backwards DIY bike project, i might actually be able to pay my credit card bill for said tools....
LMAO!!
Haha, such a relatable comment 😊
so you only buy 1 dollar tools? :)
Sir, compliments on how much video editing went into that. There was so much editing, it made 12minutes of bearing change not just watchable, but actually enjoyable viewing. Kudos.
Peter
I truly appreciate this! Editing this one was such a heavy lift.
I cut out a lot. My goal is to try and make these as watchable as possible.
Thank you.
@@EverythingsBeenDone You're welcome. Keep up the good work.
Ditto to this. Great offering!
@@EverythingsBeenDoneyou retained just enough to convince me this is never something it should attempt to do on my own
Bearings all have a number on the side of the inner ring, this is a standard across all industries, I think mandated by ISO. Any local bearing shop should be able to cross reference the number for a comparable bearing of the exact size. I have bought bearings many times at a significantly lower cost and they usually have them in stock. The exception maybe the ceramic bearing option......probably because they get better with age. I love the channel, keep up the great work!
Such a great tip!
Thank you for sharing this.
Next round that’s exactly what I’ll do.
Often the numbers are covered is corrosion so then you start measuring…
@@dominicbrittikr! 😅
As a mechanic at a shop, some bearings have no markings at all.
Typically all bearings can be cross referenced at a bearing shop, they'll usually take a caliper to the I.D. and the O.D. and cross reference the size. There are rarely new or unique bearings.....but if there was any industry to reinvent the wheel and make it "fast", it would be the bicycle
industry. @@cjones7854
This is a great endorsement for threaded bottom brackets and multiple wheelsets. Threaded BB... Easy to replace. Multiple wheelsets... Keep riding while a wheelset is in the shop getting bearings replaced.
😂😂😂😂😅😅 ditto! PF and BB30 are head-scratchers! Why the heck do they exist? To make maintenance an ordeal! And unfriendly to DIYers!
Lol for sure, I had to deal with pressed in on couple bikes and my last build last year, Ibis Mojo 3 thank got is back using English threaded bottom bracket.
I can relate to this so hard! 😂. I love tinkering with my bikes and will only buy a tool when the appropriate job for it comes up…. And that’s every single time! 🙈
Exactly!! 🤣
I've been a DIY auto mechanic for 20+ years, the most frustrating thing about getting into mountain biking at 40 is my tool box is almost entirely useless for bikes.
Replacing a bottom bracket was my first bike maintenance challenge and I felt like a complete amateur, I actually had to get a sawzall involved.
Well done on the task!
My grandfather was an auto mechanic for 40+ years, not sure exactly but you understand. He also built and repaired bikes as a hobby. When I started cycling and I realized how expensive tools are especially the once in a year needed tools, I went to my grandpa to see if he had anything. Turns out he didn’t… he has a plethora of modified tools from traditionals like ground down “cone wrenches!” The only two actual tools he had were freewheel removers and a very crappy spoke wrench.
Bro! Busted out the post driver breaker bar! Respect
An awesome video on why bike mechanics should be paid more! They are geniuses with the patience os saints. Santo Mechanico. 🙏🏻
I used to be much like you. Got some tools, figured out what to do and changed parts and did maintenance. Then changed a bike to find out it had different standards and required different tools... And I never bothered again.
Very cool sponsor choice ! Lawyers keeping us safe from those reckless drivers
Thank you ! Now I feel less lonely on this world when I realize that I am not the only one being actually scared of doing other stuff, except fixing flats and periodically changing the chain and sprocket on my bike.
You sir, are a glutton for punishment and I'm here for it. One of your best vids yet!
I did have a twinge of schadenfreude while watching this one.
😂😂😂😂
I put the Enduro MaxHit BB on my last steel build. Man I love it! They spin so good.
These mechanical type vids are informative and totally hilarious. Props for your patience DK. Next..??
Dustin, you've outdone yourself on this vid! This is by far the most entertaining and coolest version of this type of question. Most others on YT really fall short, but I'm really enjoying your take on things lately. Kudos for chatting with your community, and keep up the awesome work player
Can we also take the time to tabulate the nigh $500.00 tool set Bill! And nearly the same +/- in Bearing parts! Yikes!
Very polished video like a ceramic bearing with a life time warranty.
I'd get too frustrated with the parts/tool costs and all the time you put in. Cudos to you for working it all out.
There's something to be said for older loose ball bearings and I'll think of it soon
SHIMANO baby!
Found the channel earlier today, must have watched 20 vids so far. Fucking fantastic footage. Triple F approval.
Back in the DIY fixed gear days, I somehow managed to get the first half done without the bottom bracket tool. Was it done right, probably not but did it work, absolutely!
Diggin the blue hoodie
Another great video, thank you for this.
I had to change the bearings on a 3year old Mavic Cosmic Carbon SL front wheel which was hardly spinning anymore and my experience came close to Dustins. I ordered 3 additional tools, however there are some budget options on Amazon, like a nice 60$ bearings press. On top of Dustins challenges the dust caps removal added another two tools to my collection, one of which was not suitable for the job.
Dude, good video. You're funny. Love the "I'm not a Mechanic" patch. More people need them.
I’m obsessed with your videos, you’re doing a great job dude, I’m here for it!
Awesome! Thank you!
Wow! Really enjoyed this helpful and entertaining video. Thanks! Although I'm far more capable with my bike maintenance now than I ever used to be, I'll be sure to remind myself to limit my bike upgrades to things I know I can do and have all the tools for. Otherwise, it goes to a professional mechanic.
Love it you're still wearing your jacket and helmet after getting the pliers. I can totally see me doing this as well
Always! LOL
I'll take paul brodie's word for it. SKF or NTN Japanese bearings are the go to. Ceramic's a waste of money. Also you forgot the headset bearings. Happy riding dude!
Props to sticking it out and finishing the job. 🤘
Best tutorial ever! I can't wait to do it all myself :-D
Entertaining and informative. Good job 👍
entertaining and educational! great editing too. all said, some things are best for the pros, especially if you do repairs incorrectly and you've injured yourself.
Great video! I ignored this for a few days because youtube algorithm kept recommending but glad I finally watched. I remember buying my first bike at the bike shop, the pro said what matters most is bearings and I totally blew him off, haha. I only cared about what brand it was... frame, brakes, fork, drivetrain, etc.
This warms my heart! Thanks for hanging out.
This was very stressful and exhausting and expensive.
But well done! I’m impressed you didn’t stop and got it done. 👍🏻🙂
Hahahaha!!! I flipping love the way you did the video, I can imagine myself going through the whole process and realizing at each stage I need something else :P
Amazing job!
🧑🔧For all those 'Not a Mechanics' out there: bit.ly/EBD__Gear_Shop
Great humor! Fun to watch! Good info!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, that was epic. I think you bought 4-5 new pricey tools? I agree with your conclusion. And I hope you update us on how that bike now feels/rides!
I still have not been able to ride this thing/ We got nailed with ICE STROMS...when it thaws Ill be out there!
I hope there's "nothing" to report for a long time & that they just _work_ ... forever
@@malcontent510😂😂😂😂
This made me subscribe! Thank you for your work.
You just made my day!
@@EverythingsBeenDone I think that you deserve more that a good day. I wish you whatever you wish for! Thank you for your work.
Can't wait for the update video! Nothing like entertainment while bike working eh lol when he was up on the bench trying to get the barin out😂
For the bearing size of a wheel, you can always use the Serial Number and go grab the manual online, one of them will have each individual parts that's on your wheelset including the bearing with their size code.
I did not have luck trying this for these wheels. I dug around on line and found minimal.
@@EverythingsBeenDone I guess that's what I like the most about owning Mavic wheelsets then ! Finding specs and manual never been easier. Also if you ever struggle to find parts from your local shop or favorite online dealer take a peak at bikeinn !
Ahaha as a bike mechanic I can tell you that is almost never true, unfortunately
@@andyzacek9760 For Mavic Wheelset ? They have a subsite dedicated to that "techicalmanual" which you can find manual for any of their wheelset as long as you have the serial number, done that for 3 set so far
@@MartyCoonyGreat tip!
Learned something…again !
The way you edit your video’s keeps it fun to watch.
BTW the mustard color jacket from Gore Wear …is that the Lupra ?
And the blue hoodie ?
Aha, I had a feeling you were filming this past weekend when I started to count your layers. Looks like you got a bit more ice than us down the valley further!
I do appreciate the simplicity of repacking my cup and cone bearings. I’m old school that way. Though my newer Trek hardtail surprisingly has cup and cone for the wheels I may face tool upgrade-ism when it comes time to replace whatever is in its bottom bracket… 🤔
It does seem like ceramic cartridge is a good way to go for a nice carbon bike that gets lots of miles in yuck weather too.
For our horrible weather nice bearings really make sense. BUT mid level would also fit the bill they just may need to be replaced at some point.
We still love you down here in _The 510_ Dustin -- home of Enduro Bearings. As Marshawn would say, they doin' bidness!
Great work! And yeah, I'm off to the LBS!
That looked hard, you sure made it entertaining 💯🤙🏾
Thanks for your entertaining but essential video on bearing upgrades 😂
Sound design (if thats what its called) and editing on this video is flippin amazing!! SUBBED!
Wow, thanks!
I think this was one of the best bike maintenance video I ever watched 😊 and yes bin there and done it, wheels, bottom bracket, headset and suspension bearing on multiple bikes and builds. Definitely not fun 🤣
Looking at the weather you ride in the bearing tools should pay for themselves in a few years. I've managed to get by with adapting a few tools for bearing removal on DT Swiss and Novatec assisted by cheap Aliexpress tools. Great vid!
Haha, loved the Thrasher mag easter egg! Great episode, as usual. 🙏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
A true cyclist has experienced this. Not a "fancy" one, who has a friend mechanic for everything. In my case on full sus frame it is even more fun.
Thanks Dustin.
I could so relate to the learn how to do something and then have no idea how I previously fixed something a year or two later.
I used to know these things because they needed far more frequent repairs.
I've replaced bearing on wheels numerous times, without needing brand specific pricey tools.
However one of my recent wheelsets is DTSwiss. Damn!
First time coming across your channel. A+ video! As an aspiring bike mechanic, I hate it!
Your channel always gets me in the mood…..to cycle..
Hub work. The only thing I'd need a shop for. I refuse to buy these tools and I'm happy you created this video. This video is exactly for me. For my enjoyment and reassuring me not to do bearings myself. Thank you so much
Amazing video and editing.
Mate, one of your best vids yet, had me laughing, it's so ture to life, FYI I'd hazard a guess we've all put both bearings in the freehub body, minus the circlip🤣🤣I remember fitting bearings to a hope hub, using the official tool kit, putting both bearings in place, then looking down on the bench and spotting the axle🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🏴
I can relate to this!
I haven't touched a new enough bike to have press fit bearings in anything. New grease or a new sealed square taper bottom bracket has been about all I've done. Diy headset tools is fun tho, very satisfying to use
Good stuff, once again! BTW, sweet skate decks on the wall!
for those who know ;)
When I used to play competitive roller hockey we were obsessed with getting the highest Abec-rated bearings available -- I think it was Abec 5 & Abec 7 at the time.
I thought I saw the worse of bike mechanic hell/debt when I bought all the missing tools I needed to build my first bike from components on my own (and my first fully internally routed bike too).
Somehow, you proved me wrong and now I dread the day I decide to build/rebuild a wheel and its bearings.
Yooo. A R.E.Load bags patch! Nice to see appreciation for a great Philly brand.
I'm now completely convinced... That I don't want to do this. Thanks for taking the bullet for me Dustin!
Every video is entertaining, please keep it up. Onto the keyboard critique comment: Think of bearings just like you think of tires and road surfaces. The ceramic balls are harder, and deform less, but that is only good if the surface is pure and perfect AND UNLOADED. Once you load a bearing, especially as small as these are relative to the weight of a human, the balls press themselves into the race with a lot of force. Ceramic could be fine if you have lots of balls (point contact) and tight tolerance races, but for the rest of us, steel with steel make the most sense. Much of the claims of ceramic bearings being lower friction do not do it under normal, or even high loads. Often, when all things are considered, steel ball bearings provide more "squish" that cause them to mate with the race better, which then allows the grease to turn liquid and provide a thin film for sliding with very low friction.
I'll keep my steel ball bearings for now. Never had to replace them, only clean them and repack ever so often. Oh, and I'm over 40 and over 200 lb. Still have my bikes from 20 years ago running strong, OEM bearings :)
hi! very nice video, even though I already knew I'd never be doing that, even changing my chain proved to be' more difficult and expensive than I thought.
that said, what kind of phone support are you using? aren't you afraid of messing up the optical stabiliser in your iPhone camera? thinking of getting one but afraid of that...
also, what camera did you shoot this on?
thank so much, definitely subscribing!!
My dad had a bike shop many years and all the bike mechanics whore white coats. I’m glad you’ve kept up this tradition 😊
And this lady's and gentlemen is exactly why i never work on bearings myself ! Wow, impressive video indeed. Could you tell us how much you spent on tools alone ? 😮
Fcking around with those bearings and tutorials reminds me of administrating any linux for a bunch of colleagues :D
12:00 "I hope to never have to do it again"
Well but you already have the tools now...
I feel your pain here. There is soooo many different standards, tools, sizes and shapes in the bike industry. Tnx for the follow // GravelNorway :D
I laughed my ass off at you forgetting the c-clip. I've been there before and know your pain. This was a fun video and proof that some services are better left to a shop to spare my sanity.
......and here I was, thinking it must be something revolutionary!!
I've been very tempted to buy new bearings for my bike many times. I do believe my rims/hubs that came with my bike don't even allow for maintenance even though they are dt swiss.
I want carbon rims(winspace grapids) this summer so I'm just going to run mine into the ground until then.
Bicycle are such simple machines its a good idea to just learn everything and collect the tools if you have multiple bikes because they will pay for themselves. You can buy cheap tools to start and upgrade as needed. That's the thing with bicycles. It's not complicated you have to be will to buy all the tools which aren't cheap if they put a little blue or yellow on them.
I am from this school of thought!
It used to be much much simpler! I remember my father was cleaning ithe bearings of its bike in the nineties and not so many specialized tools where needed.
For sure upgrading wheels and hubs would have cost similar and given other benefits. Back in the day that sounded JUST like me! Upgrading bike parts with abandon.
I appreciate the humor and all, but there are alternatives to the tools you've chosen. You've pretty much gone with the first class option of tools for every single step in the process.
With the exception of the ratching ring removal tool, which is ridicously expensive (and as you noticed always outrageously tight for some reason), getting the bearings in and out, can often be achieved responsibly with a selection of basic handtools such as a hammer, drift, various sockets, some allthread and washers/nuts with corresponding spanners.
If you want to splurge a little, something like Harbour Freight are likely to have generic bearing press tools at a fraction of the cost of that fancy anodized Enduro thing.
The blind bearing puller is nice, but not necessary for most DT Swiss hubs (at least the ones I know/have worked on) - their own maintenance guide actually suggests/suggested (been a while since I've had to do it) using a hammer and a drift. Hambini even has a video on why that is not just a hack - but actually the right thing to do, in order to avoid deforming the spacer tube and messing up tolerances. Even though that - in typical Hambini fashion - has coursed a fair bit of discussion.
So for those viewing: enjoy the good humor - but know that there are alternatives :).
... but if you own a set of e-Thirteen XCR wheels, just know that they simply don't support changing bearings in the cassette body - when worn, they want you to buy a complete body... :-/. Never accepted that, and tried changing them a few times, never lasted - replaced the hub with a DT Swiss one... runs flawless as their products always do...
"Balls deep" and "Dangerous", sounds like a good time....lol
that was pretty cool! everyone should know how to change the bb. wheels, on the other hand...
I'm partial to Wheel MFG BBs. USA made with enduro bearing on many of their models. I have it on my hardtail & plan to run it on my Wzrd drop bar xc bike too. It was under $100 for the sram dub version I have. Side note not all mechanics have those tools for DT Swiss wheels. My friend's bike shop does not have the tool I would have to drive to a bike shop 40 mintues away(via the Arroyo Seco Freeway w/light traffic). One of the few shops in the area to have the tool according to DT's site.
This shows are gnar this project is when only specific shops have the tools to do this job..yikes.
Wzrd Drop...love this name!
@@EverythingsBeenDone bike brand &builder is wzrd. It will be using gravel wheel spacing but mtb bb spacing to get some wide 29x2.3 tires to fit for a, gravel meets xc build. Will have Enduro bearings in the wheels mfg BB
man, that was actually fun^^
As for bearings, get a set of NTN or SKF bearings, they're the best on the market and cheaper than Enduro's overpriced ceramic bearings. Ceramic bearings are one of the most overhyped and overpriced things around.
Watching it wasn't that transformational...I always go to the pros to get things done... But it was super fun, well done maestro!
Well done video!
Glad you enjoyed it
it's just the first time that's expensive with all the tool purchases. There is some cheaper tools that would work fine but quality tools are nice to have. The next time you need to do the job you are all set! Just order bearings and fire them in. It's also fun and satisfying doing it yourself.
Nice Melie
I experienced PTSD from this video. I had trouble finding a local mechanic to rebuild my Sturmey-Archer hub so I attempted it myself. I didn't have to buy a lot of special tools except for a cone wrench but had to buy a lot of basic tools like spanners that I did not have. after three failures I was ready to give up when I got a tip on a local mechanic who saved the day. It cost me less than $100 and several days of frustration.
What is that blue hoodie you are wearing. Its awesome! Great video btw :)
I came here for the bearings, stayed for the "woo!"'s
I'm cheap, which is why I have ancient shimano cup/cone bearings on my winter/poor weather bike. Whole lotta ball and grease replacement! See you in six months!
You could have hacked an old long nose PLIER into a Spring Compressor/Removal Tool by simply filing the tips thin and bending them inward like pincers.
Have one in my Toolbox. Works just fine.
Bought another wheelset with the money and time you spent. Fun video. Get multiple wheelsets, take the wheels to the mechanic.
god I love this fella and his you toobe content 🙌🏼
PLAYER!!
Now service the motor bearings in the creo 😅
Great vid as usual! ❤
I do have those xd-15 bearings as well, they indeed get better with age. i really wonder how long they will last. They are nitrided races with ceramic bearings, the only thing that makes sense for ceramic bearings, so the science behind it is sound.
Great vid, I laughed a lot - can you give us a total tool spend for these jobs……..I’m seeing my mortgage adviser and hoping to get tools added as ‘home improvements’
Fence post driver for the win!
Sealed bearings are not actually sealed they are just covered, I've tried many types of grease,nothing works better than CV axle grease,cheap, durable, insanely thick
also, all of my new bikes come with a manual and prescribe the annual bearing clean and re-greasing...among other periodic maintenance recommendations-- chain wax/oil and cleaning schedules as well as washing your bicycle after any wet and/or off-road rides wiping all the dirt and water off the bike before putting away until the next ride...
This is rad!!
BRING IT TO A MECHANIC! I appreciate this. Especially if you're logging thousands of miles every year and you love riding more than wrenching, it'll save time and money. You can use all that to log more miles!
the forgetting how to do it next time thing is all too relatable
My local bike shop would do this job for 20 dollars 😂. I changed press fit bottom bracket bearings once before I knew better. If you can afford all those bikes you can afford to pay a shop to fix your bike. You should have just used the lower end bearings and had a shop put them in.
Can't stop laughing!best upgrade DIY video ever LOL
i can see myself ,spending time & money ,trying to do ,for the very first time ,upgrades or maintenance on my bikes😂
When ambition runs head long into reality 🤣
