- Опубликовано: 6 июл 2024
- Today, we visit our friends down the road at Cane Creek Cycling Components and see how they test mountain bike products. It turns out they have an R&D lab filled with destruction robots of some sort.
I have no sponsorships or paid collaboration with Cane Creek, so this is strictly for fun. Thanks to the employees and engineers for taking some time out of their busy workday to show us some cool stuff!

He never said “we are doing something a little different, but kinda the same”
Cry
Well, it’s a lot different from usual, I guess.
Now I have depression 😥
Thank god he didn't
It was kind of different but very different
Thanks for stopping by Seth! We had a blast showing you around our facility and putting your fork to the test on the “Cane Creek Smasher 2.0” ! - See ya on the trails
I love your cane creek series 10 but could you please bring back an ec34 straight steer 1/18 aheadset? I love my 90s 1 inch version
Thanks for the support @@InsanercYT ! We still offer the classic ec34 1 1/8 straight headset in our 110 Series (backed by our lifetime guarantee) | EC34/28.6/H16 | EC34/30 part number: BAA0163K
What happened to 1.0?
@@jack.3991 They made a new fork and it didn't go high enough
As a Mechanical Engineering student this is incredibly interesting and fun to watch! Great video as always Seth. But, seing engineers use imperial units instead of SI units just... hurts.
Its all too common. I’m an engineer in the aviation industry, and everything is in imperial. Our turbo-machinery guys even use Rankin in all their engine calcs. Its just something you’ll have to get used to. I personally just do all my work in SI and make the conversions when I write reports or make drawings.
@@spoonlesscorey1628 Making conversations all the time is a sure-fire way to introduce error into your analysis. It is best to work with the original units because that is the way things were designed. NASA lost a $100 million plus space craft due to similar reasons
What's really fun is working in the packaging industry, and getting to report results in mixed units like gram/inch
It is so stupid. SI units were introduced to fix the problem, and Americans still use their imperial system...
Because America kicks ass. 🤘🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Very cool video! It was fun seeing some “professional” hacks!! 😁
snort. That's called engineering.
“You’re not a MAN unless you can CAN.” … lol … that belongs on a new COGNATIVE MTB shirt - awesome video
It said u not a man if u can’t can
Next week’s episode: “How to build a fork service station for your garage”
you already know he upgrading lol
Thats for sure!
That look Rufus gave when he pressed that together
Lol 😂
The speed ramp on the footage for a moment was perfect.
man it would have been so interesting seeing the actual data on the dyno and comparing it to the helm-plots :O
This actually makes me feel a lot better about my bike on rough trails. Didn't think they went this extensive into testing. Awesome to see!
Thank you! We take a lot of pride in our products and our customers satisfaction. Make sure to stop buy our shop if you're in western NC!! You can schedule on our website.
Linus in the Intel factory
Seth in the Cane Creek factory
I mean, you're like the LTT of bikes, just saying...
Exactly! They even use some of the same jazz pieces as background music!
Can we get Linus to visit Berm Peak to do a server update for Seth? Seth can take Linus round Berm Park :D
@@chrisbell7115 I think Gamer's nexus would be better suited for berm peak since Steve a decent mountain biker and probably could ride some of it.
@@chrisbell7115 The neet thing is that their about the same size, Linus could totally fit on Seth bikes.
@@SaitoGray lol
More of this sort of thing, please! I love a good factory tour, especially if there is destruction testing involved!
We would love to do a more in depth tour of testing on our production products.
No better advertising than seeing the real thing and the real people. Great way to build brand loyalty and educate enthusiasts at the same time.
I don’t think I’ll be breaking my Helm coil anytime soon 😂
Good to see ‘No brakes’ Nate 👌🏼
This is probably my favorite video you've done, getting to see the work put into different parts, the human ingenuity behind them and their willingness to have some fun breaking stuff is awesome!
Wow, what an amazing video! That's so cool that they let you show all that cool testing equipment, that doesn't happen very often in the industry. Lots of interesting stuff!
This makes me appreciate Cane Creek products far more!
I love your videos and the content. It's always entertaining and informative at the same time. Thank you, Seth!
Thank you for the inside-look! Love cane creek's products and will definitely continue to support these awesome developers
Thank you!!!!
Any work place that has dogs, is a place worthy of my viewing time.
This was a great insight to a very cool place.
Thanks for the video
There is almost nothing more fun than destructive testing, eh? It's not often we get to be involved with such things but the information is priceless if you get the chance. Well played, Seth.
This is freaking informative. Research into bikes with respect to and not limited to ergonomics only are qualitatively detailed.
Thanks so much for your hard work and making my day as entertaining as always!
I really like all your videos, but this was absolutely awesome. Thanks for sharing this experience !!
I really love this. They actually showed some real engineering stuff. So many companies are just way too secretive nowadays and don't show anything except for glossy PR footage.
this different content is so fresh once in a while, I love the branching out
I love these guys.They are like field engineers :)
Thanks for the video Seth!
Man that was fun to watch! Keep visiting factories and show us their machines. This in similar to that show How it's Made. Love it!
That was fun to watch. I always enjoy seeing how things are made.
My favorite episode in a while. Thanks Seth.
I've always wondered how mtb parts are tested and improved from year to year. Well, now I know! Great video and at least we know Cane Creek is doing their part to ensure that they produce good parts that are safe.
And there is even so much more! Glad you appreciate the effort we put in to every product.🙏
Awesome video! Love seeing how parts are developed and tested.
Thanks for the great video! That was fun to watch!
This was awesome! Hope to see more videos like this in the future.
Im so glad that big RUclips'rs can do this kind of things. And Shearer it with all of us that can't go and wisit these kind of things. Please do more Seth.
awesome video, it was really interesting to see the stress tests they do
I love my cane creek e-wings, cool seeing the factory where they are built!
Great video. This is why a like this channel. A lot of mix quality content
Inspirational for what our work can be. Makes me want to buy their stuff in the future. Happy dogs too.
More like this please! These are so fun
I wanted to see their suspension fork hold up under the weight drop! Great video! Looks like fun!✌️😁
No Brakes Nate! Great vid Seth, very cool that they're doing all of that engineering in-house.
I thought it was him!
@@danielthompson7791 Where is Bobo?
Very very cool. I have the fortunate experience of visiting some R and D facilities and it goes without saying, the companies that actually do R and D are generally the more expensive products for a damn good reason.
Love the vids and I also love how you explain things so keep up the good work you are also one of the reasons i want to get into mountain biking so I just want to say thank you.
All right Seth, You more than earned my subscribe with this video. Anybody who custom fabricates to this level for the sheer joy of a prank is someone I have to follow. We’ll done!
Awesome vídeo brother! Great content! Keep the good work!
Recently landed a job building up test fixtures and equipment for a local company. Start next month. Stoked to learn about a new field and build new skills!
Gotta love Cane Creek. My old Bonty went through three until I installed a CC headset.
this vid is so cool love it seth
This was an episode that I actually learned something and find it entertaining at the same time!
This was really interesting, really enjoyed it
This was awesome as thanks man
the fact they can record specific trails and test them is the coolest thing ive seen all day on YT. i would love to work in R&D, if i was smarter and more motivated.
If there was somebody like you around when I was riding I probably would have stuck with it. You make learning about stuff not suck. 👍
Always a dope vid coming from Seth
Really wanted to see inside the developpement office. Guess it's mechanical engineers' heaven
5:11 really is the best part of the video
Very cool. Makes me feel better about the two Helm forks I have, although I never had any doubts about them.
Thanks for trusting our forks for your bikes!!!🙌
The hole in the bench with a jig for servicing your forks is a definite hack. Borrowing that. Excellent content 👍 respect from Uk
great video and it was extremely interesting how they test everything to build a better product.
This was so fun to watch
This was fun to watch
Very interesting and great vid 👍🏼
Very cool, as someone raised in an engineering house I love this stuff
I remember a friend of mine snapping one of those Marzocchi 130 mm forks back some 20 years ago. Was long suspension and cheap for the time. It just flat out broke, so this one was much safer. At least in this test.
Not to forget that everything fails when you give it enough abuse.
Always a hell of a day when Seth uploads!
“You ain’t a man if u can’t can”… a motto I will forever carry with me.
love it would watch again
great episode !!
Love this content
I'm glad u moved, at 5:18, when the machine was spazzing out otherwise I'm not sure if I would have believed the scene was actually real. I may have figured it was CGI or something. That was insanely fast!
Great stuff!
That looked so fun!
LOL the way Rufus looked at you 🤣😂
Seriously cool stuff :)
Looks like a properly chilled place to work!
I think Seth is the only RUclipsr who knows that it’s “without further ado” and not “without further *or do* “
I've never heard anyone on youtube say "without further or do" wtf lmfao
@@PabzRoz dude. Pay attention. Sooooo many say that. It’ll annoy you like crazy. Everyone from more many stream vloggers to niche channels say it.
very cool.... thanks for the video
Great episode! Second only to the saw mill visit.
Using the music from Syd fixes bikes channel at 6:25 lol love it
I have a Cane Creek Hellbender headset on my bike. Also love to see these manufacturer contents.
4:22 “Alexander and I bought two matching Walmart hard tails”. Believe it or not they were full suspension, although from the video I think you’d be forgiven for thinking it was anything but a hardtail lol. Also, ME student here and this was AWESOME. I wonder if the engineers get compensated for their time logging data on the trails 🤔
Man, that was super interesting! As a 150 pound guy, I've blown through 2 forks.
First one was a "Next" WalFart special, so no surprise there. The upper stanchions cracked and sent the wheel out front from, I guess, jumping too hard.
Second one was a RockShox Judy fork. Somehow I managed to break the bridge connecting the 2 lower stanchions, so my wheel went all kinda of floppy.
I'm currently rocking a Fox Float 32, but I'm kinda paranoid sometimes because I can feel a decent bit of flex sometimes. Been casually considering upgrading to a Stepcast 34.
This video made me happy to at least have a CC headset. Thanks for the video!
Smashing stuff - what can be more fun than that?!?
As usual, very interesting video. I would really have liked to see how a high-end fork measured up to the smasher!
Love Cane Creek! Amazing company!
👍👍👍 Thanks!!
Yeah this was awesome!!
Good Stuff! 👍
Hello there that Pisgah shirt makes me chuckle everytime i see it , here in Poland we have a slang word Pizga which sounds very smiliar to it and means feeling extreme cold.
7:30 in is like my home test of driving into garage with bike upsidedown on the roof racks 😂.... Twice lol
That is an awsome vid !
I love the wheel sets they use to make.
Very cool video!
Seth looks like a kid in a candy shop! This is great! Thanks for the fantastic content.
Sweet, I’ve got a helm dj. Pretty cool to see part of the build process
Seth is the all-time king in torture testing bike products, prove me wrong
Man that priceless expression at 5:21 😂😂
More of this !
Great video seth
I have some cane creek rims that are still going from the 90s and their yellow awesome stuff
I love how Seth’s prediction was that it will hold up fine and the pros were like no way it’s going to break and they were completely right lol
