[@jeffschroeder8875]

Im guessing you'll never see my post, but NEW HACK for you. If you are trying to dial in your rear brake caliper alignment, try installing your rear wheel without putting the chain onto your cassette. That way your rear wheel can rotate in silence while you listen to see if your rotor is rubbing!

[@jeffschroeder8875]

Just stumbled on this while trying to fix the pump up issue on my m8000 brakes.

[@thomasjohnsen5254]

That's a good one, I might use this one at work actually, the free wheels from some hubs can be so loud it's impossible to listen to scratching unless I spin it backwards which spins annoyingly short.

[@Candesce]

This is brilliant for anything requiring spinning the rear wheel. Trying to true the rear wheel with a loud hub is a bit of a nightmare.

Seth, you are one of our sports greatest ambassadors. The way you cater some content to beginners is invaluable in bringing new riders to the sport and helping them progress. I am sure that there are thousands of riders out there that would thank you for getting them into riding and working on their bikes. I have been riding and racing since 1990 and I still find your tutorials and hacks to be really helpful. And I really appreciate that you show younger riders that it's not all about having to most expensive bike; its about progressing, learning and having fun. Keep up the fantastic work Seth! And if you ever make it up to the Adirondacks, I would love to show you around my favorite local trails. Thanks again Seth!!!

1: Use your fish/luggage/bike scale as a DIY torque wrench by measuring the distance from the center of rotation to the point where you make the force, and the force you make. For example, to do 40Nm you just have to do a force of 20kg at a distance of 20cm. 2: Use some old big scissors as a chain whip by drilling 2 holes on each blade and attaching one small piece of chain to each blade. The ends of the pieces of chain should be the outer links. As you don't need lots of chain, you can use the left overs of new chains. 3: Improvement over the crank boots inner tube hack. Cut a section of inner tube 1.5 times as long as the height you want to cover. If you want the outside of the inner tube to be the visible part, first turn it inside out. Now place a third of the tube you cutted by the side of the crank you want to protect the most, for me, having the crank arm in the bottom of the stroke, I put it facing between the front and center of the bike. Now, just fold the rest of the tube over the crank + first third of the tube. Finally cut out the hole and reinstall your pedals.

[@Breeson-yg2rh]

Jorge Álvarez I love these ideas! Although you could improve upon the last one by use a set of channel locks designed for removing an oil filter (maybe $15 at Home Depot) and you could most likely still use them to remove a tight oil filter

Hola Jorge! Pensé que era el único español🤣

You can clean jockey wheels but getting a corn cob holder and holding it with one prong on either side of the jockey wheel...now pedal and the prongs will clean of gunk and grease

[@scottphillips5677]

This is sheer genius! How about an alternative - bend a paper-clip into a "V" and hold with pliers?

[@blueskies8710]

I use a flat head screwdriver to scrape the gunk off

[@tormarquis]

one suggested modification to the "pedal bike stand" 7:13 use a hole saw with the diameter that matches the inside diameter of your pvc pipe, preserving the disk that's left from cutting a hole in a 2 x 4. first bolt the disk to your base, then screw the pvc pipe to the disk. this makes for a rigid connection between the base and pipe that's needed to support the forces required to hold your bike up..... I have a heavy tandem bike.

[@esurfer89]

And you can line it with rubber tubes or tires for extra protection

[@bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb366]

You can use a Multitool as a tripod for you smartphone simply by raising for example two screwdrivers and placing it in between them.

Here’s a hack for one of your videos, when learning to pull up barspin learn to do a barspin on ice since you don’t have to lift up the front wheel and then when your comfortable with that you can move on to the actual barspin👍🏼

[@pattyupnorth9707]

Once, when my workshop was limited to a toolbox and an old beercrate, I used an old, chepa** side type wirecutter, that Ive flatted with an old file, for crimping the cable ends. That is actually what I still use to this day, despite of now roaming in a proper workshop containing all the lusts of the home mecanic.

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

GREAT tips! A few more: 1. Place a drop of superglue in a cable cap and slip it on the cable end. No need to crimp it. 2. Use a 1/2" long piece of electrical heat-shrink tubing on a cable end. Heat shrink is cheap and available in many colors. 3. Dunk your brake levers in Plasti-Dip to give you better wet-weather grippiness. Available in several colors. 4. Self-sealing silicone tape makes a great semi-permanent chainstay wrap to protect the paint from chain slap. 5. If you ride in snow, place a warm bike outside for 20 minutes before you ride; this allows the bike to reach ambient temperature. If you ride a warm bike in snow, the snow melts and then freezes again as ice on the chain, cassette, and derailleurs, which makes shifting difficult.

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Good ideas Seth! Instead of a towel, use an inner tube to clamp the shock/part - it will hold the part more securely/won't slip.

[@PorterMTB]

Also, I loved the rag around the shock, while you do have to be very careful, it’s a great solution in a pinch!

[@howiseeitmtb7327]

Yeh it’s pretty rad

[@bloke-up-the-road]

Seth, you probably know this. If you cut a large rectangular piece out of a used squeezy plastic toothpaste tube, it makes an excellent "tyre boot" for get you home sidewall repairs.

Hey Seth, glad to see you back on the bike again! As a hack for your next video in the series, I have started using small lengths of PVC that fit over my axles for when I remove my wheels and put my bike in my car. This keeps grease on the axle and away from the upholstery of my car. It can also double as a dummy cassette when cleaning your chain...similar to your hose hack from a while back (without the neighborly theft). Enjoy and keep the videos coming...love the content!

Seth I got told from Jim at my local bike store that using WD-40 on the bike chain can damage the chain but watering down oil and put a half teaspoon of WD-40 in it can make it less erosive on the chain grease and also works as a chain cleaner.

[@johnburns145]

Hey Seth here is a hack. Many people just getting into mountain biking don’t want to spend the money on a work stand, making it tough to work on drive train components. My hack is to use a hanging bike rack for a car instead. It raises the bike to a comfortable level, allows the wheels to spin freely and provides easier access to the bottom of the bike for those tough to clean spots; all the while it will go almost anywhere the bike is without having to spend more money.

[@SethsBikeHacks]

There's a small but passionate group who wants content like this-myself included. I always love when Casey Neistat or some other KZbinr posts their advice on video making. With that said, my camera and editing videos consistently underperform. Lately I've been keeping this kind of stuff on Patreon because it garners more interest, but I'd consider doing one here if enough people suggest it.

[@PedalingDave]

Patreon. That alone is one of my biggest questions. What we (read..ME) new creators could use is information like, When is it close to time to start a Patreon account and, How can we best (as mountain bikers) with all our similarities possibly pull in supporters through that interface? Also, is it or is it not the primary source of income or is something like affiliate marketing more fruitful? Ultimately hard work, improving content, and making sure to offer something is what I believe is most necessary. But the WHEN and HOW to move in to those (patreon, affliate marketing) forms of income *Specific to Mountain Bikers* is mysterious to say the least. Cheers dude. Thanks for considering!!

[@caseybergeron1338]

I work at a bike shop and a big “hack” that we use is when working on derailleur cable or dropper cable we use vice grips to hold the cable and then take a handheld torch and put the flame to the cable and rotate it while the torch is held on it and pull slightly on it so it burns the cable off where you would normally cut it. This makes the cable un-frayable. Then there is no need for a cap on the end of the cable. Best bike “hack” ever!

Bike lights that come with a rubber strap to keep them in place on your handlebars or seatpost will often slide anyway due to al the bumps and bouncing of your mountainbike. I put a bit of old inner tube (cut to size) under it to get more friction and provide it from sliding. Works like a charm!

About dog poop: an easy way to get it off of your tire on the trail is to find a rotting chunk of wood and rub that into the poop patch on your tire. It works kind of like a vomit clean up kit; the woody dust combines with the poop and makes it dry out and fall off. When you get home though, you can go the extra mile and get yourself a cheap car snow brush/ice scraper. Use the brush to brush the knobs on your tires as if you were brushing teeth. Water helps. Your tires will look brand new afterwards, which is super useful if you keep your bikes indoors like I do.

FYI - For cutting a seat post down I used a plumbers pipe cutter. Worked better than a hacksaw and vice. Love the videos!

[@nzo_6543]

Yeah because it's a "pipe" cutter, problem is that you can't cut carbon with it or else it weakens it, also if you make your cut on aluminum alloy, you noticed that it has ridges Because the pipe cutter been scoring the seatpost many times, just sand it or file it

You cen use heat shrink tubing as lever grips. I was using that and it works realy good.

A great way to dry out wet shoes is to use a ski boot dryer - they're cheap devices that blow slightly warm air into shoes. In just an hour or two the shoes will be totally dry. Also helps dry out sweaty shoes and many will plug into your car lighter socket.
