10 Hacks for MTB, Road, and Outdoors 

7:35 Might need another taco to go underneath the bonus taco.

5:08 "Have you considered Carbon Rims?" 😂

Badge holder for hydration pack is the best I have seen so far.

3:41 when you put eye glasses on cats

"Have you considered carbon rims?" Lol

Seth “calling” drama is like the cutest thing ever

The part when you suggested Drama to go tubeless was so funny XD

that camelbak trick is really useful!

Baby Seth:"SMEASH" 6:48

Wait, my washing machine eats socks too.😳

I’ve been one of Seth’s subs for a looong time and I can honestly tell you that he is one of the few RU-vidrs that I genuinely enjoy and learn a lot from

my top tip for removing tires: before hooking in the tyre lever, push the tyre on both sides to the inside of the rim.. the middle section of the rim is deeper thus giving the tyres more space to hop over the rim. if needed you can change a MTB tyre without the aid of any levers (being stubborn). Also, I have succesfully used old jeans as a DIY chainwhip. Enjoy!

I could watch a vid of 100 bike hacks

"what happened to your trailer Drama" Best quote I have ever heard

The flexible cutting boards work great for the fender hack. They also come in a wide range of colors and can still be cut with scissors easily. Love your hack videos Seth keep them up.

Hey Seth, I just love your hacks. Keep doing what your doing and my favourite hack was the extra taco one and the mud guard Cheers Bailey

The camelbak one is genius

I made my own mudguard...and it's gotten like 3 compliments, so I will chalk that up as a win!

Just autoplayed at least 6 of your videos. Definitely one of the best channels I’ve seen- you absolutely kill it! From content, to camera angles, you’re videos are top shelf quality all the way around

Writing invoices on work orders is brilliant and I absolutely love the way to bill out family members with Chores around the houseI'm not sure that would always work but it would remind them that sometimes we're not just Screwing Off in the garage And maybe we deserve a little help around the house. And since I am now retired with a crab load of invoices unused this works great for me.

What do you do with the things that fall out of the bonus taco?? Double bonus taco?

10/10 taco hack I approve

Love the retractable badge holder idea, doing that one PRONTO!! As far as washing your helmet pads. Next time you buy armor, or something that comes in a mesh bag, use the mesh bag. The mesh bag allows better cleaning of the pads.

The badge holder is Most EXCELLENT! Simple and practical, thanks for the tips and all your videos.

I love this video Seth, the zoom ins were hilarious and the tips were great. Keep up the great work

I absolutely LOVE the "chores to pay for your services" idea!!

Thanks Seth. I’ve been waiting for this video for about 2 weeks. I understand that your injury may have affected this, but I feel all feedback can be seen as useful. By the way I would like you to know that you are my go to biking channel.

All great hacks.Thankyou. THe bonus taco was the funniest. I am definitely going to try a few of these, especially the retractable for the hydration pack.

Who else finds Seth’s hacks very useful??🚵🏽🚵🏽😀🤙👍

For removing valve cores my chain tool from the multitool fits perfectly. It's the part where the chain pin gets pushed out in. Should be standard on all chain tools and it's a perfect fit on the valve core.

Osprey makes what is IMO the best hydration pack for mountain biking, it comes with a magnet on the mouth piece which snaps onto the shoulder strap without any effort. Good tip on the squared off socket for the top cap!

Thank you much for the glove idea because i have been needing cheap but good gloves for winter riding

When tuning derailer, or lubing chain etc. I don't turn my bike over or use a bike stand. Instead I put the bike's bottom bracket on a jack stand and lean it against the wall, shelf etc. for balance. It works good for me. To prevent scratches to the bottom of your frame, put a small rag. I have a piece of 3m film.

I took your advice and told my wife she owes me a future lawn mowing for tuning up her bike. She said that bill will can go straight to the collections Dept. and stay there.

I am Implementing the taco hack ASAP. Great videos, much Aloha from Maui!

For evening and night rides I wear a pair of clear safety glasses. They have a removable padded insert that gives them a goggle feel and that blocks all crosswinds. No teary eyes!

Pool noodle hack is something we'll definitely be using for our biking adventures this year. Thanks for that (and all the rest too!).

“I bought them at the hardware store for balls plus tax” - Seth Alvo, 2018 3:25

Great hacks! Definitely going to try and remember these as i get more into mtb

Watched 4 of your videos. Your worth a sub. Kick ass work.

Genialne pomysły , proste rozwiązania są najlepsze w Polsce ma Pan wielu fanów 👍😄

Hey Seth!, here is my story! I was about 17 miles away from my house and my tube went flat. Fortunately, I was able to find a pump to air up and see how far I could get before she went flat again. (The flat was very small, so i had about 30 minutes of ride time) Anyways the problem with the pump was, it was Schrader and I have Presta valves. So in a pinch, I found a cool hack! If you take the protection cap off of your valve and cut the top off with your knife, you can screw the cap back on and it creates a bigger seal so you can adapt a Schrader to a presta! it was very useful and got me more than halfway back to my house before i had to call for some backup! I hope you can show this in one of your hack videos! BTW my name is Seth too!!

I just got some new lock on grips, the lock on grip valve core hack is gonna be really helpful for me

These are remarkably clever. Good stuff.

Hi, I used to wear safety glasses while cycling too for the reasons you said, then I did research. Long story short, safety glasses aren't manufactured for sports. Many brands specifically say on the packaging "Not for use in sports". Depending on the manufacturer, the lenses in safety glasses may not be shatterproof (I know, right?), designed to stay on after impact nor offer UV protection. the bows aren't designed for a sport style impact, and aren't made for active style wear. So what this means is that if you're wearing them on the trail, and you get an eye injury due to the glasses cracking or coming apart on impact, you have no recourse because they specifically say "Don't do this." And this isn't going into optical clarity, that some safety glasses are meant only for indoor use, and the mass-manufactured "polarization" techniques... And people will argue that I'm wrong or a shill or whatever, hey you do you. "Any port in a storm" is fine in a pinch, but why compromise when you have access to the RIGHT tools? I'm reminded of the people who wore ski goggles to play paintball. If you don't know better, it sounds perfectly fine, until the lenses blow out on impact and you lose an eye. And that's happened far too often. I'm just sayin'.

make a video about what to do when you can’t ride

Like the foam noodle tricks. That's a riot because I STILL keep a piece of black soft foam pipe insulation over part of my top tube lol. ~JSV

Ayeee, double bonus taco is mandatory. Looove your vids man! I just built a $10+k stump jumper. Always love to see good hacks and mods to make it even better. My trouble is I gained 25lbs but only managed to save 5.25lbs on the bike. Talk about and expensive weight upgrade.

Using a retractable badge holder for the hydration tube is genius. I have magnets on mine and it's only slightly less faff than nothing.

I DARE you to use the swing bike on the trails

I love the sunglass hack and camelback badge sling.

That bike shop bit was hilarious! Great job there!

I love that drama part, so funny yet so true, and it’s even more funny that drama has absolutely no clue what the hell your saying lol! Btw I smeash that like button on all of your videos because they are just too good🌮🐶👊👍😁

What about a hack for stopping the bloody freeze/thaw and rain that's kept me off the bike for a month and a half now?

The last hack was most helpful. Many thanks

@Berm Peak, thank you so much your videos are so useful!

Hahaha been using the taco hack since ever!!!

Skidaddle Skidoodle your bike is now a noodle

I found them all really useful! I'm a runner also the camelback hack was really cool!

That taco hack is brilliant!! I am sooo using that with my kids! That will even make the dishes easier!

Smeeeaaash 😀😀😀

The taco hack was definitely the most useful

I have to also say you are almost always hilarious which is a great way to start my morning So thank you

The badge retractor hack is great. I had one and it works great

Who’s here at 2 million

"Better bikeing weather" in Portland Oregon we just had 5 in of snow

I did the mud guard a couple of weeks ago and it’s great

Bonus Taco Hack mind blown 🤯!!!

wait seth your left handed ?!

“Now that’s using you noodle” I’m dead

Thanks for the mud guard hack!

The camel back trick is amazing. I did this for my mountain bike pack and my atv pack.

do you have any hacks for those of us that don't have a garage for storage? My bikes are currently in my living room taking up much needed floor space. Ohh and i am renting.

If you have dirt in your handle bars blow into side of your handle bars and the dirt will fly out

OMG!!! The last one was useful, practical, one they everyone will use. Or I will for sure...

Great video as always. Would be interested in seeing a video about the 10 best hacks to improve your riding

Hi Seth

Poor drama. How much did u charged for the flat tire..

Love the take hack....why I never thought of it..

Thanks for the Mud Guard Template. I made one today. 🤙

I wasn't listening for a second and then I heard "you need to put your noodle in your travel bag for extra protection"

Riding season never ended in the Netherlands

Saved me $10 with the retractable badge holder hack... thanks!

That badge holder is an awesome hack idea. Freaking brilliant

When he put the glasses on I thought he was having a stroke 😂😂

Unfortunately, Nowhere near enough Taco innards Escape me over the course of a few tacos to adequately stuff another.

Taco hack most useful. I’m so much wiser now thank Seth!!

you can take 2 or 3 tire levers, depending on your seat post size, rubber band them together, and stuff them in your seat post. Also, I zipped a compass pouch to my handlebar stem, and I can keep a multitool, patches, and extra chainlinks in there.

Bonus taco? Bonus meme!

I keep my spare and tools in a drink bottle. Just had to get a good sized mouth so that the tube comes out painlessly.

Bonus Taco...Best hack I have ever seen. Thanks for the video.

Bonus taco hack ..... Solid gold dude👍🏼😎

Be sure to add the mini tortilla below the normal sized tortilla for the leftover leftovers. Oh, and while you're at it, add a mini mini tortilla, for all those leftover, lefto..

Fir the life of me, I cant figure out what this head movement is.... 3:43 ☺️

Good hack: some of my spot lights I use for night riding slip on my metal handle bars so I cut inter tube and rap around the area on the bar where you want the light than just tape the inter tube on with electrical tape and BAM 💥 no more slipping lights

The last one is the most useful for sure

Man, grandpa's hardcore

Infinite taco

Holy crap! Late to the party, and VERY new MTBer here.. Thanks for the fender template! That's awesome!

Hope all is going well in the healing process Seth. Another excellent Hack video! Retractable badge holder? The applications are endless! Well played subscriber X, well played.
