      those who CRITIQUE efforts are either well meaning in the effort, or, more often, covering up personal guilt over their own inaction(s.) Ignore the trolls, they feed on giving pain to others and thereby relieving their own pain by passing it on.

    On an unrelated note, kind of, my mate bought a diamondback grind and removed the front brake. Now for some reason he wants it back on and asked me to give him a hand, I was struggling to see how it would work with a gyro, thanks bikeman.
    ps. loving the mohawk, I bet when it's up it puts my puny 8 incher to shame.

    Just when I think you're going over my hairspray, you come back and say "We'll get to that in a minute." Now I feel confident about fixing the right brake on The Dutchess. Thanx!

  • @Dario927
    @Dario927 12 лет назад +1

    thanks. I recently replaced the cassette on my road bike and was having a tough time adjusting the sora rear mech, I thought it might be worn. I ended up using Sheldon Brown's method (with cable disconnected, hand pedal and push derailer in until it engages 3rd or 4th smallest sprocket, then reattach cable, best method i've found so far).

  • @NextGenesis88
    @NextGenesis88 11 лет назад +1

    I ride no brakes atm and it can improve your riding and style, but I'm going back to brakes again now my control is dialed because I love doing tricks with brakes like back tire stalls.

    BIKEMAN! I need help, my BMX bikes rear brakes aren't "locking up" on the rim. They'll slow me down but the wont STOP me when I need them to. They can't be worn down I've had the bike for a week now. What I want to do also, is to be able to make "skid marks" and drift on dirt. I know skid marks aren't very good for youre tires but its fun. :D What do i do!?!? Please reply.

    Riding without brakes!....From a Darwinian standpoint it is only a matter of time before those individuals are eventually naturally selected against. Nature's way of weeding out the dumb ones. As usual great episode, Bikeman! Keep up the good work!

  • @mewuvspiggys
    @mewuvspiggys 11 лет назад +1

    Did you make a video for how to install/service rear brakes? Would be a big help, also... what are those metal tube/loop things on the frame that hold the brake line to the frame? And if you dont have those on your bike, and want back brakes and dont want to use zip-ties to hold the cable... what would you do? Can you buy those as a seprate attachable piece? Mabye use some sort of metal brackets that arent too tight so they dont scratch the finish of the frame?

    @stephanie2069 8 лет назад +1

    I learned a lot in this video already :) just subscribed and gave your Facebook page a like! But aahh i need help! last night my cousin and I were trying to fix my rear brakes on my bmx. I found my back tire was rubbing against the "arm" of the brake on one side. and it was also doing what your front brakes were doing here in the video, only one side was flexing while the other stayed put so you had to fix the tension with the screwdriver, but my rear brakes don't have that little screw.. what should I do? If you have any ideas that would be great :)

    • @BikemanforU

    • @stephanie2069
      @stephanie2069 8 лет назад

      Ok so update, I think I got it to where it needs to be, but the short cable that you use that threads through one of the screws on the brake and through the triangle clip is very bent and looks like I may need a new one? does that matter if it is bent alot? because I feel like it doesn't maneuver through the clip as smooth as I think it should. could that be possible?

  • @mewuvspiggys
    @mewuvspiggys 11 лет назад +1

    Like, the brand of the lever and brakes? 0_o It really doesnt matter the brand or the price as long as you set up and position all the parts correctly. Other than having certain braking systems being $150 and others being $15 just because of the brand, ther isnt any difference. The difference is all in how you take care of it, and how you angle the brake pads. But there are brake pads that last longer than others, and some that generate more friction, but they do the same job, the exact same way

    Damn. I have a redline and those fucks made the cord too thick to pass through the grooves in the brake handle apparatus. I am not a fan of destroying my shit, but they have a protective cable under neath the rubber/plastic that surrounds the main pully-cable... they made the fucking grooves too small or the cable too thick, going by your video. This shit pisses me off because I paid more than 400 for a fucking bike thats faulty out of the box.
