I love how the new Yorker came out in seth when he said kitchen drawer
Haha I caught that right away
I was looking for this comment! 😅
Kitchen draw and wooder ala chrisfix
@@pnwriding4381 me too!
Same as soon as he said I came right to the comment section
Using great tools is one of life's truest joys.
Ain’t that the truth!
So true. A good tool is fun to pick up & use. You know the job will get done right!
Money doesn't buy skill.
@@jacobpoucher what does this have to do with the comment?
Your profile pic is stupid
Video ideas:
A video where you test the strength of different MTB components such as handlebars, pedals and crankset
A house tour (not really MTB related but something that could fit the BPE channel)
A video where you do a review on the “trickstuff trixer” brake
Yes good idea
These are great ideas
Trickstuff brakes are like 1000 idk if he wants to spend that much but it would be cool
@@brrandondarrrell He bought two Haibike electric MTBs for johnny and curtis for well over 4 grand each. Do they really cost 1000 dollars?
@@sirgooselover241 diamond back owns haibike so he probably got them for free
“It’s kind of a hoe, but with sharp edges” My favourite thing Seth has said this week
When he first reviewed it in a different video he said, “The issue with most hoes is that you just can’t trust them.”
@@jacobmiller8786 That's because he's using rogue hoes specifically, of course you can't trust them. Standard hoes are a bit more trustworthy. Although your mileage may vary.
@@frankthetankricard Oh boy. Now I have a bunch of questions about "rogue hoes" vs "standard hoes", but I'm not gonna ask.
I need a sticker that says “A little different, but kind of the same.” Lol I can use that phrase for so many things 😅
Same🌝🌝🤣🤣
Yes
he can also make that to a shirt too😂
@@ieatmeat8755 yes😂
Definitely!
Every video Seth be like “I can’t stress this enough this is not a tutorial”.
lol
What du you think about cube c 120 2021?
this needs to be on some merch
4:09 you can hear Seth's New York accent in kitchen draw
This is specifically why I came to the comments section.
@@fatmanonlinenow same
@@fatmanonlinenow same 😭
he's not from new york though
@@pinchpeak5203 he is, he says it in one of his older videos about how he worked hard to get ride of the New York accent.
I think my favorite would be a bike stand, but I don’t know if that counts as a tool.
Definitely counts. Sure beats leaning a bike against a wall or setting it upside down on the ground!
It counts. Jack stands count for cars🤷♂️
One purchase I desperately need to make
It is a tool
I inquired about buying a bike stand at my local shop when I brought my fork in for a star nut today. I really should just get one. Working on a DIY ebike MTB which in testing so far has been the best bike I have ever rode. Gary Fisher 2007 donor bike. 1500w rear hub motor. The stand and a few other tools from this vid will be worth it just for cables, brakes & tires.
‘Even this nylon gun pick’
Seth low-key letting us know he’s strapped up
Doubtful he's from NY. It probably was a Amazon or Facebook recommend thing.
I came into the comments for one thing and u absolutely delivered
Oh he's packing heat. He may be from NY but he's in Trump country now. (in case people forgot, pro gun Trump's from NY too).
Hey Seth, this fall I plan to take some friends and my dad to the bike park and I’m really exited. Love your vids and good luck finishing the trail
You'll have to let us know how the trails are. I'm sure they'll be great, but let us know!
I'm an engineer at the company that makes Titebond, and I love watching your videos. Glad to see one of our products help you out!
Yes to all those tools. My personal favorite is the derailleur hanger alignment tool, every time I use it I'm glad to have it.
That's one of my favourite tools too, up to the point where I'll think no hanger is aligned unless I say so. I plan to get the Park Tool DAG-3. What do you have?
That 3 way wrench was my first ever bike tool and I love it
every time i watch one of Seth's new video's i end up rewatching another 5 just because how good they are.
Wera hex keys are my favourite. Great for getting out bolt without rounding them and the colours make it easy to see where you've chucked the one you need quickly.
My favorite tool in Mountain Biking is Seth. I knew nothing a few years back, I have a bunch of hacked tools and gained knowledge that keeps me riding and I truly appreciate the channel.
Thanks Seth!
Yay! You seem to be posting more now. Also, could you make some BTS and bloopers videos? That would be cool.
Yay
And the crowd goes wild 👍
Yes!
Yes
That seems cool
I know you don't always need high end tools but damn when you get a really well built one (the scissors for example) it just makes a world of difference
i got that way about knives a long time ago. my dad gave me my first case knife when i turned 13. i'll never go back to cheap gas station knives again.
@@ArmyBoiSweat once Victori-nox all other knives lose.
I absolutely LOVE my ratcheting mini screw driver from Milwaukee Tool. Have used it on my bike, motorcycle, car, truck and inside the house on multiple occasions
Best video Seth has released since last week
Hey Seth, I wanna say thanx for making ur vids, I've been going through a tough time and u have been helping me get through it.
Ohh I like pushing wood glue in with the air compressor! I'm saving that one!
Same here. Hadn't thought of that one, but it's genius!
On the off chance that you see this, thanks so much for donating the funds from the Orange P7 to the Bogue Chitto trails. I just got back from riding them, and it's easily the best trail system in south Louisiana. We don't have a lot of trails here, so being able to ride well planned trails in an area that actually has sizable hills is great.
+1 for the greasy toothbrush! I love them for both cleaning/distributing grease. Works like a charm
You aren’t lying Seth! Those Pedros levers are super nice!
Agree. I've had about 6 different levers over the years and the Pedros are the best. Most durable. I've cracked steel-cored levers, but have yet to break a Pedro's.
@@Driver8takeabreak Lol. Ya man they are super durable. Super nice to have on hand for a flat while riding too.
6" crescent wrench is probably one of my favorite tools to use. It is small enough to use for most projects , but still big enough to take off a set of rims
My favorite is the park derailleur hanger straightener because i am so relieved to have it every time and its also saved me about 200 dollars so far
My favourite non-essential bike tool is the stub screwdriver - gives you so much more control when adjusting V-brake tension screws, shifter limit screws, any finicky little screws really. The short length means they're easy to seat and when you press down real hard you don't risk slipping/twisting the head out and stripping the screw. Lifesaver.
Love everything Knipex makes, I don’t have a lot to compare to but their Wire rope cutter is fantastic for cables/housing.
The other bigtime winner is the Cannellock WideAzz wrench (8”). A quality adjustable wrench is just so handy. The jaws aren’t too thick too so it’s more useful than a lot of other wide mouthed wrenches.
This just made my morning before I go for a ride
Loving the Pedro's tyre levers. Had mine for decades now and still going strong. My favourite tool is my Dremel 3000, useful for all sorts of jobs, drilling out frame stops to run full cable housing from shifter to mech, cleaning up rusty looking bolts, deburring stuff, cutting hydraulic hoses cleanly and accurately etc.. And probably second is my bench vice.
Love your videos, I’ve been watching for years and started out on Mtn Bikes, in the last year I’ve realized my love for riding recumbent trikes and it’s amazing how many tips and tricks work in that hobby also 👍
I love using that park tool tork wrench the one that’s a T and you can adjust to newton meters so fun to use.
Literally watching this on the way back from buying a new wrench.
The 3 way is one of my favourite. I use it everyday at the shop, mostly for brake pads, brake/derailleur cable bolt and stem/handlebar bolts. Even true axle, seat post, pedals... literally everything
Got myself an old Marin Bear Valley SE (1993) in semi good shape, for 30$ last week.
So far I fixed the shifters and changed the chain and tires.
Got a few thing to do, to restore it, but since yesterday its ready to ride, and it feels amazing for such an old bike.
Your Videos about "what to do if you lack of the tool xy" helped me a lot.
But if I gonna stick with that hobby, I gonna get some special tools over time.
Thanks for inspiring me.
Great video
Awesome video
One of my favorite tools for bikes has got to be hex driver sockets. After growing up using regular little L shaped Allen wrenches (even with mini braker bars for leverage sometimes lol ) I got a set of 1/4 & 3/8 metric hex sockets years ago, put them on any ratchet i want and they've been fantastic!.
My favourite tool right now is the Milwaukee air pump with a presta adapter from presta cycle. It is easy to use and I like that it will stop inflating at a set pressure. Thanks for the video.
you forgot "Park Tool Master Link Pliers" saves so much time (Y)
Oh, that's a great tool!! Nice choice.
The handles smell real nice too
Why are you such a good RUclipsr
Love my Topeak Ratchet Rocket!
Teeny tiny wrench that makes me feel like a pro mechanic, so I use it for absolutely everything. Of course it's also very practical and effective.
Thank you Seth for your posts. Your posts are one of the few things that make me happy these days. Keep up the good work.
I think this is the first time I've been early to a RUclips channel I actually like.
Harsh but fair
same
Just love this channel😍
I have automotive flare nut spanners, I probably only use them once a year, but really glad I have them when I do.
had my first ride of my home trails to day and had a huge whipeout, safe to say this was a welcome surprise!
The best feeling in the world is using a brand new premium set of scissors, that is the high I am always chasing in my life.
My favorite tool is a set of Knipex needle nose pliers. I keep them in my nightstand I use them so mush
My friend has a little garage shop and he said the greasy toothbrush is blowing his mind. Thanks Seth
Adding to my Amazon cart as I watch the Video!!! Truly great items!!!
Video idea:
100 vs 130 vs 150, vs 180 mm fork travel on Berm Peak, going up and down. Basically a comparison of the pros and cons of each travel level.
Hey Seth cab u do more stuff with traxxas
One tool I love using is the chain whip. It is often not pretty, probably the least ergonomic tool I own, but every time I take it, it makes me feel like I know what I am doing, even though we all know better ...
An electric screwdriver has to be one of the best tool purchases I've ever made! I tend to spend hours at a time working on my car or bicycle. With so many repetitive turning motions, I started to develope carpal tunnel syndrome. I got an electric screwdriver from harbor freight on sale for like $5, and it has been a lifesaver for my hands! Its small size and light weight make it very maneuverable and easy to use. It is often times straight up faster than working by hand. Highly recommend everyone get one even if its just a cheap one from harbor freight!
(Sidenote, there are socket adapter bits that let you turn nuts and bolts too)
“Why are your teeth all black?”
“Oh crap, I used the wrong toothbrush this morning”
😂😬
sure we all miss seths riding, but i’m okay with learning about tools while he heals :)
everybody that is a Seth fan is just so nice and caring thank you everybody for letting him have a youtube channel as a job.
Definitely agree on Pedros! They are great.
100% agree! I bought a Travis tool a couple years ago and it's incredible! It's so versatile you never need to put it down while working on a trail.
I think Seth is the most entertaining video creator that I've ever watched
Seth, I might be speaking for everybody but can we see some riding like at kanuga or whatever I just miss you riding
Yeah me too, we need some riding
That would be epic to see bud but he is coming off a major surgery and it can sit in the back of your head as far as what you use to do I'm sure in time he'll be ripping it up when he feels it 😉
Yeees, we need more riding!
plus this is bp express
This is his reviewing channel you have to watch berm peak
This was awesome. I love the subject. Here are my favorites
1) Pedro's tire levers. Over 20 years of using them and there still is nothing better
2) PB Swiss Swissgrip Coin Driver is the best brake caliper "pusher backer", battery case opener and all around pryer.
3) PB Swiss Digitorque V02 Digital Toque driver, 3.4-16nm with the pistol grip. It is probably the best feeling tool I have ever held.
The 3 way hex also just looks awesome
Was that "kitchen draw"?
Took me by surprise as well. Sounded a bit like he's from the Dirty Coast.
never clicked on a video so fast
same
Same
Love this video!!! Just getting into bike maintenance so this is helpful. Thanks
I’ve found the most joy in the few times I’ve gotten to use my Wheels Mfg press, so satisfy to spin that beautifully anodized bar slowly and watch everything fit together snug
Berm Park is going to be insane!
I clicked faster than me muting in a zoom class
😂
hey can you give me your zoom id i am gona prank your teacher plaase please
Same 😂
I'm so glad I don't have to mess about with zoom with me being a lorry driver in UK I can just turn the phone off or just ignore everybody

Hello to all.... from Nottingham England 🏴
I love using a tool.....
And that tool is me 🤣
YES. I love it when SSS is shown in your videos. I can't wait for his next video. Your videos are also awesome.
Here before the video blows up.
What people forget about with Snap-on tools is that you aren't just buying the tool, you are buying the right to that tool for the rest of your life. This means that if you buy a pick from them at age 15 and break it at age 90, they will give you another one for free!
yeah but craftsman and i think mastercraft both do the same for 1/3 the price. i still have my grandfathers 1960s craftsman screwdriver set. when it comes time i'll have them replaced with a brand new set
@@ArmyBoiSweat Except that Craftsman hand tools are most definitively not what they used to be, you would be getting those USA made tools replaced with the current made in China tools
Tekton is where its at, and they also have a lifetime warranty. They don't even care where you got the tool- if its in your possession and it breaks, they will replace it.
i just ordered the park tool sw 7.2, cant wait for finally having the right tool for the job
Park tool ATD-1.2
Soooo many stripped bolts in my past, this little tool has saved me a lot of frustration!!
"Drowah."
Yay
Love the Pedro levers! and flush cutters!
My favorite tools: 3rd hand, 4th hand and BB tap/thread chaser set. This last one I use every time I service or replace a bottom bracket; it makes reinstallation foolproof. A close 4th is my spoke cutter/threader. When I build my own wheels I buy uncut or long spokes.
Hey Seth could you try a budget hardtail with a certain budget (like 4-500) to see if it can hold up (I wanna upgrade my bike like that)
He did a while ago back at berm creek
@@brrandondarrrell but not with a certain budget but thank you and could to tag me or tell me what the vid is called
Hi Seth 👋
Mine is a mechanical multi bit screwdriver that has every bit you'll ever need in small comparment in the handle !! Useful, efficient, and surprisingly cheap!
Hey Seth I’m sick right now your vids have game me entertainment and joy while I’m sick. Thank you for the awesome vids.
I saw this and knew to was going to be kinda the same but a little different
4:10 Little bit of that accent comin out, there!
I love using the right tool for the task at hand .
I actually use a small screw driver for all kinds of things when working on my bikes.. Its just so useful and I use it wayyyy more often than you would expect
aaah yes, we're doing something kinda the same as last week
I clicked so fast!😂
Same
My personal favorite would be digital calipers. Picked it up for bikes, now using them to validate the sizing on a ton of other stuff before I place an order.
The AWS-7 is absolutely one of the best! One of my favs
I am unexpectedly early. Anyway I'd like to see you go down berm peak on a full rigid mtb tho hehe
Yay another Seth video | (• ◡•)|
Yay
I love these types of videos
👌
My current favorite and most satisfying tool to use is my cheap derailleur hanger alignment tool i got off amazon for around $38.🤷🏻♂️ i find myself checking just about every bike i work on with it and most of the time the hangers are slightly tweaked and this tool gets it shifting buttery smooth!
Hey guys today we are doing something different... but kinda the same haha. I can literally lip sinc the first part of every video.
I skip it. It’s annoying AF.
@@spydersniiper lmao
One doesn’t experience self-transcendence, the illusion of self only dissipates 🎈
Awww yesss the snap on picks! I have had a set for a long time. They are so expensive that they always get put back in their place and have never been lost because of that.
Whatever tool gets me out on the trail is my favorite tool.
