My favorite tool is and always has been the Dremel Rotory Tool. It even works to file my toenails.

@cb6866 6 месяцев назад

Thanks Nic and Josh..Pedro's make the best tire levers too ! Be well to you both .

@nicvieri2627 6 месяцев назад

They are legendary. Loads of companies have copied them, but the Pedros ones are the OG’s

@cb6866 6 месяцев назад

@@nicvieri2627 thank Nic. I appreciate you honesty

@nicvieri2627 6 месяцев назад

Maybe we should do another video showing how some of them actually work 🤷🏻‍♂️

@cb6866 6 месяцев назад

I’ll watch pretty much anything Josh makes. From his first , until now , he has become an artistic storyteller , with video ! Thanks for sharing

@Josh-Reid 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching. I’m hopefully getting better the more I make.

The rear mech alignment tool and the bb bearing press are ~£200 each 😮 That’s why you use a LBS 😉

@nicvieri2627 6 месяцев назад

Some tools are mega expensive, but it’s worth it for how much we use them.

@themoodyteam 6 месяцев назад

@@nicvieri2627 how many times would the average cyclist use a bearing press. If I needed one, my LBS has (a considerably cheaper) one. The alignment tool would be nice, but not essential.

@nicvieri2627 6 месяцев назад

Yeah, you wouldn’t use it that often, unless you do all your own servicing. If you did get one I’d go for the new Enduro BRT-060 Linear press. You. An do wheels, bb’s and pivot bearings with them.

@yonglingng5640 5 месяцев назад

Both the hanger alignment gauge and BB press are overkill for home mechanics. A Park Tool DAG-2.2 and a BSC Tools BB press is enough. They're still kind of expensive, but they're more attainable.

@themoodyteam 5 месяцев назад

@@nicvieri2627your first reply was justifying the cost because of all the times you used them. Your second reply you said that you wouldn’t use them very often 🫤 So which is it; you’d use these expensive tools a lot, or not very often? That bearing tool you suggested is ~$300 🙈 How many bikes do you think you own and service on a regular basis?

@bigreds_ 5 месяцев назад

I stopped working in bike shops 15 years ago and I still keep finding those AWS tools in boxes or drawers and things. So ubiquitous!

@GroundCRow 5 месяцев назад

I'm surprised, there's no Knipex Pliers Wrench on that wall. At work in the shop or at home this is one of the most versatile tools! I strongly recommend to get one of those like the 86 01 180...

@moobaz8675 6 месяцев назад

You can't beat Knipex. Also, I have a rear block removal tool made by Abbey. Absolutely beautifully made bit of kit. There is no substitute for quality.

Great video thank you 👍 I love the tool for setting handle height 😎 not sure if I wish to see how much they cost especially if only doing a job every so often 💰

Abbey Bike Works is in my town. He's a really good dude.

@MosesRS 5 месяцев назад

Remind me to never take my Canyon into the store LOL. I can only imagine what you think of my Lynskey...what about Trek and Rocky Mountain? Pedros +1

@stevenscott7738 6 месяцев назад

Can you use the Pedro’s torque wrench to loosen fixings as well.? Thanks.

@nicvieri2627 6 месяцев назад

Yea you can loosen with them as well.

@user-cx2bk6pm2f 5 месяцев назад

This is a shop to be avoided. If you don't buy your bike through them, they don't give a shit about you. I mean, he's smiling when he makes his clever Canyon joke, but I'm sure he's not kidding.

Nick why didn't you drag Josh to Cade and interview him. Fair play and such...

3:00 - the rear mech hanger alignment tool is 'probably the most important tool for a mechanic'? Really?

@scoresandflames 5 месяцев назад

Why not donate your old tools you're not using anymore to a local cycling club or school?

@zygmuntthecacaokakistocrat6589 5 месяцев назад

Why do you paint your workshop black? You'll find that a lighter colour will reflect light better, and lead to a general lift in mood, and better ambient conditions, so you can see finer stuff better (or older people don't have to squint at small print) rather than oppressive shadowy dark.

@nicvieri2627 5 месяцев назад

The tool wall is black. The whole one side with a double heigt roof is a window (Aprox 10m wide by 7m high)

@user-cx2bk6pm2f 5 месяцев назад

Shops like this don't care about the cycling community, they just want your money... "if you don't buy your bike from me I'll fix it with an axe"

@user-cx2bk6pm2f 5 месяцев назад

Here we go... another bike shop triggered by Canyon. That's really shitty.

@larryt.atcycleitalia5786 5 месяцев назад

Folding hex key sets in a pro shop like that? Stuffed in a travel bag OK, but I'd be worried handing my bike over to someone wielding a folding hex key rather than a proper L shape, t-handle, etc. no matter what the brand name on it was!
