DIY MOUNTAIN BIKE is all about getting beginner Mountain Bike Riders up to speed FAST.
David here from DIY Mountain Bike. This channel is all about showing beginning Mountain Bike Rider's how to repair, ride and improve mountain biking skills. I also review and recommend products that I actually use.
...did I miss something in the video? Where is the part where you move from tubeless to tube? It seems like a normal video on how to change a tube in a tire...weird
@@diymountainbike oh sorry, I see now what you did, you wanted to show that a tube fits into a tubeless tyre...I was looking for something on how to convert a tubeless tyre and rim into a tube tyre and rim. More specifically, what do you do with the tubeless valve and does a tube tyre fits into a tubeless rim, but I can only find the opposite.
The handle bar plug did fit in the end my 22mm handle bar. Nice ‘skip’ in the video when you put the plug in. Suggests to me you had some issues too. I’m returning these grips.
Horrible stupid Presta valves! My rear tire worked to air up but not the front. Brand new Ebike. there is not enough stem sticking up for the tire gauge to measure the pressure. it airs up just fine.
I ride twisty single track trails. I'd like a little more light for those trails at night. The dedicated nighttime trail lights will cost closer to $80. The Ascher is a great light to be seen and for dirt roads.
You have not installed the rack correctly. The name SARIS should be visible and the push mechanism (gray color)should be on the front for easy access , not behind the bike. Check on the official site and look at the pictures. I have same system and my is on the front as well.
I had no idea about the shim so that was good to know before buying! Is it not annoying that this post pulls you away from the handlebars making your reach longer?
I've tried a couple others. One had a flexible neck. It was really bad, another went into the bar end. That one made the bike more difficult to put on our bike rack because it made the bike wider. I've bought a couple of these Hafny and recommend them. 🚴🚴🚴
You're the second person to say this. I need to think about making another video. All suspension seatposts raise the saddle a little. I haven't tried it, but have heard good stuff about the Cloud 9. - cloud-9.bike/collections/cloud-9-saddles-and-covers/products/cruiser-sofa
What is your cassette? How many gears? I have a 7 speed free wheel with a great derailleur. I worry a 1x7 won’t be enough but I spend 99% of my time on the 2nd cog
@@diymountainbike zip ties and high strength tape solved the problem.. also drilled a hole through the ball and mirror and installed a small gauge bolt
My question is not so much about what you did but is about how the first gear is going to work when you do a climb on the trails because I generally use the smallest on the front of the 3x which gives me the easiest way to pedal up the hills. What I am getting at is if the new 1x is about the same as the middle one on the 3x it is going to be hard as hell going up a hill so what do I need to do I am wanting to switch to a 1x?
Great comment and your exactly right. The gear ratio range will be reduced. My intent was to simplify by removing the front derailleur and reduce chain drops with a narrow wide chainring. A further option is to put on a different rear cassette to change the gear ratio range. This opens up another can of worms usually requiring different length chain, at that point you may need a long arm rear derailleur.
What most people do when they do a conversion is to get a wider range cassette. This creates bigger gaps between gears but that isn't a big deal, imo. At least, not with mountain biking.
Great question, it's up to you. The gears will affect the resistance. Higher gears make it tougher to pedal. I use the gear to set a rough resistance and the trainer knob to fine tune.🚴🚴🚴
