    Your beginner mountain bike series really helped me to get motivated and go mountain bike for the first time. Me and my dad went out to bike for the first time a few days ago and it is really fun! One thing I did wish I had when I was biking is a pair of gloves. Being a first time rider my thumbs were rubbed raw and started bleeding and made my ride a little uncomfortable. I also fell on a wood bridge that curves and I got like 4 splinters.

      Christian Meyer I wouldn’t say “finally” after only a year considering it’s a pro grade tool. I have a snap on inflator that’s similar and it’s nearly 20 yrs old and for a few years I used it commercially. It unfortunately doesn’t work for presta valves though, I could probably change the end on it though

    Quality control issues is sadly quite common, I have Poc Resistance Strong gloves, and the stitching was inconsistent, some had great stitching some not, some of them had the same stitching issues,plus glue issues on the straps. palms that wear out fast is also common issue,if they got venting holes they wear out faster.
    I have not tried any fox gloves yet, because I want protective padding.
    I you know some one who can new or can do it your self, you can modify(For example putting stronger material at the palms) or repair gloves after they wear and stretch.
    With my fingers I should not try to sew I think, but my mom fixed my gloves,as I wear them out in few months.
    Hope our reviews will make a difference.

But it's good at what it does, filling your tires.

    That Double Bass Jazz music from 1:44/2:34 was on point when you spoke about the Sh*t Kit. I probably replayed that segment of the video around 20 times already, if anyone of you Seth happens to know what it is called I'd be much obliged.
    You seem to use the best use of contemporary, non-tacky, electronic/trendy music from places like NoCopyrightSounds, however none of that is bad but it is so refreshing to hear such sounds in your videos and to hear Jazz in Mountain Bike videos are amazing! Just shows your creativity!!
    Also the music you used in your tutorial videos called the sensei music was so ON POINT! If you could leave a link in the description on something like a playlist of the songs used in past, present and maybe future videos would be amazing. If you did another Q&A video, I'd definitely ask you this:)

    Hey Seth my name is also Seth, I work for a shop out of Minnesota called Michael's Cycles. As far as knee pads, I picked up a set of Fox Head Enduro knee pads and I don't have any trouble with them, and I really like them. I decided to pick up a pair after riding out in Moab Utah and having to go to the ER after messing up my knee. As for gloves I've had a couple pairs of the low cost Fox Head gloves, and they did split apart at the fingers like you. But this season I'm running a pair of the Fox Head Ranger Gel pads and they seem to be holding up better so far. With your shop inflator we have the same ones at the shops I work at, 2/3 of them seem ok, but after using them for a few yrs the seal between the valve stem and the inflator meet goes bad, and the black button falls off. I also wanted to say I really enjoy your videos, keep them coming, I try to recommend your RUclips channel to my customers and friends!!

    I just found your channel today; saw the BeFree water filter. Normally I run a Camelbak and fill at trailheads. Due to C19, the potable water fill points were disabled, so decided to try a backpacking trick. Install a Sawyer filter inline with my Camelbak. No more water fill point issues, and the filter is good for 10k+ gallons. The multi-tool with magnetic retention looks intriguing; I’ll have to look into that.

    To Seth or anyone in the comments that have an opinion on this please
    read and answer:
    Alright, so, before I start this I want to say I ride on roads 85% of
    the time, but I just hate road bikes and alternative road/mountain
    bikes. I like Mountain Bikes, even on the road. I am a good rider, I do
    not actually mountain bike. So, here is my question, should I go with
    the 2017 Rocky Mountain Growler 740, a 27.5+ size tire bike or the 2017
    Rocky Mountain Fusion 940, a 29er. I know it all comes back to my own
    preference but I would like to know what others think too just because
    this is probably the bike I will be riding for years to come and I want
    as much opinion as possible.

      Tangey1 I'm no pro but your choices come down to either a 29er or 27.5. And from personal experience I can throw my 27.5 around a lot better than my 29er. My 29er rolls over a lot and fast with little effort while my 27.5 corners great.

      Thanks for your opinion Seth. Also, love the vids, keep it up :) Comparing the Fusion 940, do you think its worth it going up to the Vertex 930 for the price or sticking with the Fusion 940. Its really Deore vs SLX, and what I have found online is that there is not much of a difference but SLX comes out just on top. I don't think its worth the extra $, whats you opinion?

      @JrSaiyan1 7 лет назад +4

      Tangey1 sorry for leaving that out,it's a 27.5 Plus. I also mainly ride trails if your going to be using it on the rode I'd take Seth's suggestion of going with the 29er and maybe getting a low resistance tire.
      Ever looking into gravel bikes like the cannondale slate?

    I’ve been using the inflator in a bike shop. It works great for a few years and then the rubber o-rings that seal the tube valves to the inflator start to wear down and let air through. You can either buy a repair kit and your own o-ring or you can buy a whole new inflator tip.

I also have short stubby legs and I use the RaceFace Ambush knee pads. They have velcro so you dont have to slide them on and stay in place. Cheers!

    I love Park but in our shop we were going through seal kits like crazy on the park inflator and the price is pretty high. A good budget friendly fix is to go buy a decent automotive schrader inflation compressor head with a gauge and then change the pump head, you can get high quality replacement heads for floor pumps from your LBS or the net, spend $40 and you've got a top notch inflator(mostly). Ours has been going for 8 months with no issues, but we went through 3 heads at first, we ended up with the Specialized Air Tool MTB head and it's been rock solid.

    @harlanswan8184 6 лет назад

    Hey Seth mate, I'd like to share two tips with you and everyone else. The first is cohisive compression tape (the wider 1.5 inch roll particularly) which is a ride saver in my book. If you had wrapped it around that lump on your shin right away it would have been gone by the next day and it's awesome for all sorts of swelling injuries but particularly for smashed or sprained ankles. You just wrap it up snug put your sock and shoe back on and will stabilise your ankle enough to ride even after a bad sprain. That plus the swelling and pain the next day will be 10 times less and you will be back on your bike in days not weeks. Plus its light enough to carry when you don't need it and cheap as chips. My other tip is 2 part epoxy on your gear cable ends. It never comes off and works way better at preventing fraying than the caps.

    The thing I like about the Be Free is that you can use it to refill your hydration pack or water bottle with clean water because it can be squeezed. Other options like the Life Straw can't do that, plus you usually have to get your hands dirty to get your face close enough to the water source to use it, or fill your water bottle with dirty water.

    Try Gform knee pads. They're soft and squishy and flexible before they hit a surface and then they instantly harden up and absorb everything. Very comfortable and slim. You can even where them under pants. A bit pricey, but absolutely amazing!

    Hey Seth, just wanted to tell you that I had been wearing shin pads but not knee pads for a long time. They did a very good job and didn't make me that much hotter. That lasted until I had a bad crash and got a huge gash on my knee! After this unfortunate crash I immediately went to a local bike shop and bought shin/knee pads all in one. I bought these awesome fox ones that are super bulky! They are even used for dirt biking! But so far they have done a very good job! For all the crazy stuff you do you should definitely get a pair for your self! An believe me a scab on one of the parts of your body that moves the most sucks! It takes forever too heal!!! Definitely get yourself a pair!
    Sincerely: Bike Hard
