Beauty!!! I just started riding a Dreadnought in August and absolutely love it. I call it the Dark Knight (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Rp8hJU3ik9Y.html). I might set it up as a dual crown next summer for Whistler.
Hello, can you explain the pinion on the bottom bracket why you install something like that? and what is it good for please? Nice video and thank you very much!
@@maxm2096 Do you mean the chain guide/bashguard? yes I mean that! And don't understand what's better about it? And why do you do something like this that installs the additional sprockets?
It both guides the chain (keeps it from getting knocked off the chainring in rough terrain) and protects the chainring from impact if you bash it against the ground, a log, or a rock.
Nice bike, but this is got to be the most complex rendition of a high pivot frame that wants to be a single pivot. These type of bikes make alot of frame feedback noise.
That second click of the torque wrench has exactly zero effect on the tightness of the bolt, it only wears out the wrench faster. One click is enough. A torque wrench is not like BBQ tongs.
@@cagrowin1962 considering watts needed at the start/finish line sprint it's very weird way of doing things in sport where they are chasing 1/10seconds regularly.
@@jakubgabris6901 not weird, dh bikes are the hardset bike to keep parts on. No other class of cycling brings as much abuse as dh. There are no support vehicles on the dh track. Its just a mechanics mental insurance. When you wrench for top class riders, watts arent first in line as for as priorities
