Thank God!!! Finally one of these instructional vehicle where the instructor speaks clearly and shows how everything works instead of mumbling whilst doing the adjustment in 2 seconds viewed from a camera 30 feet away.
The single most useful thing on youtube. Spent an hour trying to fix it, and almost broke some stuff. After watching this, needed 5 minutes and works like a charm.
I just watched 4 terrible un-instructional videos on how to do this, and then filtered my search results by rating to find the most popular. Wow, this one is great, lots of close-up shots, and clearly detailed instructions. Many thanks on the excellent video and for the help on how to adjust my derailleur!! Bill
This is one of the best explanations on youtube - it identifies the parts and then goes through the common issues and walks through the adjustments. And the most realistic comment is that adjusting the front derailleur is a "trial and error" exercise requiring time and patience." Those limit screws don't look like they do anything much but they make some telling micro adjustments...it's almost black magic when it eventually comes together and works. Thanks for posting this video!
Perfect explanation. I looked at some other video's which took forever. Here I just paused at each step and my front derailleur is adjusted perfectly. Many thanks. I have never had it working so perfectly.
Now this video is clear and concise. I'm from England but I can still understand the guy clearly. He explains in a matter-of-fact way and unlike other vids he explains what the different parts are and their functions. I'm a complete novice but I feel confident to 'have a bash' at this. As we say in England. Good stuff!!
Professionally shot and edited. Narrated with a friendly attitude, this is the best bicycle repair video I have seen on RU-vid. Thank you, InTown Bicycles!
I had been putting up with the shifters not going the full range on my bike for months, but finally got fed up with that. Your video is easy to understand, concise, and made it possible for me to fix the issue at home. Thanks!
Great job explaining front derailleur adjustment. I finally understand! Front derailleur adjustments baffled me with the advent of STI levers, until now! Excellent production on the video, too! I am impressed! Great video angles. If I'm ever in Atlanta, I'll come in and say, "Hi!"
mate you've just saved me so much heartache and pain. I was so close to giving up and sending my bike back for a refund. You're video is so easy to follow. To all of those struggling to fix the dreaded derailleur, don't give up and if you follow the video step by step you'll be cycling again in no time :) Thank you so much!!!!
I like this tutorial video because he actually demonstrates the failed adjustments instead of just talk about it like most other tutorials, so you know what kind of situation you're at. very appreciate your help sir!
Best video, hands down, for Adjusting Front Derailleur. Watched it once, helped an elderly neighbor with her bike. Did it first time in two minutes. Thank you!
Perfect delivery. thank you you've made it very simple for me to understand. After messing about for three days trying this and that I checked out videos on youtube. Yours is the clearest and easiest to understand. half an hour later BIKE SORTED!
This is hands-down the best video I could find on the subject. It includes a definition of terms and clear, step-by-step instructions, presented in a concise matter-of-fact style. Thanks very much! If I'd found this video yesterday I could have saved myself $30 at the local bike shop. Cheers.
After 3 hours of losing my mind and contemplating throwing my bike off the nearest building, I finally tried the right combination of adjustments and got everything to work finally. Thank you.
This is the best video on RU-vid for learning how to tune a front derailleur. Thanks for starting by saying that it's hard. Before that, I thought I was losing my mind.
Thanks So such! Just been on a trip to Halfords to help align my front derailleur! They said they were fully booked up & didn’t care for 2 months! Following your video I fixed it In 4 minutes!! (Halfords just lost £20)
Ive adjusted the gears sooo many times...once you do it they stay set...so when I bought a new bike today I just needed a refresher...which screw is which....nice demonstrating! Very helpful.
I've watched several "front mech adjustment" vids and this is the best and most concise. I had real trouble shifting from large to middle, until I changed the tilt/angle of the cage - never thought to do this, because it had never been altered. Don't get caught out. The 3 areas Mike highlights are all as important as each other. I've ended with an unusual (?) solution shifting down the gears, with 3 movements, not 2. It takes 2 gentle clicks to move from large to middle.
Seriously, Everything he said about this being difficult and requires patience and practice is spot on. I spent 2 hours trying to get my derailleur to work.
Ive had my bike for years and never gave it any maintenance. Ive always wondered why it wouldnt shift to higher gears on the front. Ill have to set some time to fix my bike up...and clean it. Thanks for this video!
Thanks very much Mike! I absolutely agree with the other comments. I LOVE how you broke it down to the simplist, so us home mechanic can fully understand. Very well shot video. Thanks for sharing! God bless IntownBicycles!
Amazing video Mike, You do and excellent job at teaching and the video was very clear and nice. You should really do more of these. Preferably how to replace bike cable wires, bleed disc brakes and tune front and back shocks. !! pretty please.......
I just spent an hour on the ground right side up bike, your spot on it's hard is shit thanks a lot for this vid it cut a bunch of time and aggravation off the task and had me doing wheelies again
Hey Mike that was a great video. I use my bike to get to work, and it looks like a simple barrel adjustment front derailleur is all I needed. Thank you for putting that togather.
Thank You Very Much, I Have A Roadeo Blackburn, Once My Derailleur Was Damaged,I Think That My Derailleur Was Crashed, When I Search In RU-vid I Saw This Video, I Adjust My Derailleur Like In This Video It Works Very Nicelyyyy......... I Will Always Thankful To You..... Keep It Up..........
