10:55 is by far my favorite part of the video.

I think it comes down to not being ignorant and holding the nozzle one inch from the bike, keeping a distance and using the right technique and equipment, anything can work. I use my pressure washer for literally everything, cars, sidewalk, driveway, house and even to clean my legs off when they get covered in muck.

The real test is to do this, then leave the bike to dry for a week and pull the bearings. Remove the bearing seals and check to see if there's any rust in the bearings.

[@D0WNT0WN]

No, the real test is to do this after every single ride for a year without ever taking it apart, then compare all the components and the general feel of the bike to one that has been properly maintained.

[@bananasstuff3344]

@@D0WNT0WN The bike is abit too expensive to do that...

[@D0WNT0WN]

@@bananasstuff3344 that's exactly my point, though. You wouldn't do that to a bike because you're guaranteed to cause highly accelerated wear.

[@vexy1987]

@@D0WNT0WN What kind of highly accelerated wear?! If anything, thorough pressure washing regularly will improve drivetrain life spans. Stainless steel ball bearings are highly rust resistant, and you'd have to blast away the vast majority of the grease to lead to long term problems with water ingress and rust in these systems. Aluminium and carbon frames don't rust. Rust is really a non issue for quality sealed bearings with a stainless steel coating, unless you happen to handle the bearings and damage that finish. Now the interesting question is, if we humour your argument that water ingress is a real problem, is time well spent hand sponging a bike in order to eek out extra service life of sealed bearing systems? Probably not, given how quick and cheap it is to replace them. You'll waste an order of magnitude more time hand-washing than you ever will by blasting regularly and occasionally replacing any (rare) failed sealed bearings. I hand washed for years before I had a reason to own a pressure washer, now I have one, I rarely hand-wash my bikes, no problems so far!

[@D0WNT0WN]

@@vexy1987 i hear your point but I just don't think you're right. I've been working as a mechanic for a while now and I've seen PLENTY of ruined bearings and components because the owner got too liberal with a pressure washer too many times. And I'm not talking cheap bikes either. Santa Cruz, Ibis, Yeti, etc. As for replacement cost, I guess that depends on one's definition of inexpensive. A single bearing? Sure that's not too pricey. But depending on the number of bearings, and the type of suspension design, it can be VERY expensive with labor charges, seeing as 99% of riders would need to take their bike to a shop for that job.

[@corporalpunishment1133]

I've got a story from almost 20 years ago. I use to race downhill mtb and one race was super muddy, on the way home we stopped at a car wash and pressure washed or bikes. Eventually my front hub stated to squeak and some of the pivot bearings. I think what happened a tiny amount of water got into some of the bearings and rusted. all the bearings were sealed cartridge bearings and did take weeks to start making noise. My DH bike did not get ridden a lot I think contributing to the damage. My tip is don't pressure wash a bearing you aren't willing to replace. The cartridge bearings selected for bikes and in particular hub bearings have low seal tension so they have less drag and roll faster but this means that water can get forced into them under pressure. This is my experience, I never pressure wash a bike again and never replaced a bearing since. Great channel and thanks from 🇭🇲👍

Angel-fire NM, cressted butte winter park CO, and Stevens pass WA all have pressure washers. (Those are the only ones that ik for sure of) if they can do it to down hill bikes that cost thousands of dollars and also get used almost every day then I think a lil water from a responsible pressure wash operator will be fine.

Re: self car wash. There’s a “spotless rinse” mode at my local car wash. It’s supposedly for the last step of a car wash to rinse off the excessive wax. It’s stronger than a mist but it’s not really pressurized water. More like the max flow from your garden hose. I’ve been using that to wash my bike a few times and have had no problem so far

[@SKPhoto816]

Bearing engineer here. Completely depends on the type of seals and quality of construction. They other point to consider is if the bearings experience water ingress and it is not dried out they will corrode unless made from a very specific type of steel. Corrosion leads to stress concentrations and will eventually cause spalling

[@Durwood71]

You can tell he's a real engineer because he uses words like "spalling". I don't even know what that means.

Yes as a well experienced bicycle mechanic (35 professional years) I can say the seal doesn't stop water once the grease is washed out of the lip . After that it's water in guaranteed and probably not drying out forming a grease product that now actually holds water corroading everything inside.

[@nerfherderdavid]

I service dropper posts everyday. Corrosion and friction is the main issue. 1) water at any strength will liquify the light lubes all dropper manufactures use in their posts and suspension. - this does a few things a) no lube means friction. Friction means the cartridge is over worked = pop ... either oil leak or seal rupture = squishy death or oil slick in your frame. b) no lube means no barrier between materials + water = galvanic currents = corrosion ... add carbon frames = seized post ... never nice to see. c) no lube means no protection for Teflon coatings on DU bushings + grains from mud/soil/sand + water = premature wear = swelling DUs = friction ... see pop d) no Lube means next muddy ride or bike wash, and the voids left fill with mud (trail dust + water = mud ... even in drought conditions) mud = minerals = accelerated corrosion. 2) ... small amounts of standing water can get trapped easily in dropper internals and internally routed frames ... tends to evaporate in the day, but condense at night, creating its own little water cycle ... for a weekend warrior ... 2 rides on the weekend + 2 bike washes then 5 days sitting in the shed. Guaranteed corrosion. From a dropper post point of view you tend to have metal on metal sitting on the stanchion. = scoring. I’ve seen brand new, 1 ride old posts ridden in the mud, hosed down, left untouched for a couple of weeks. These come back for warranty only to be a rusted mess internally, parts fused, DU bushes so swollen you need a hammer to knock them off the stanchions. Plenty of people blame the droppers ... but in the end, it’s a really easy procedural fix. Don’t wash your droppers ... wipe it down with a rag, relube it with Slickoleum or similar, light smear on the stanchion and cycle it up and down a couple times to coat surfaces and avoid galvanic currents and corrosion. 5min job. Not telling you not to Ride in the mud, but more mud and water = more frequent service or premature equipment failure and $$$ All the best with the power washers.

The bottom brackets are still susceptible to washing out the grease as just happened with my Son's Norco threshold. I keep our bikes clean, religiously clean. I never use a high power pressure washer, just a wand on a garden hose, and I avoid the bearing areas. Now his Bearing actually seized with rust. Luckily he caught it right away and noticed the crank not spinning properly. I replaced the bottom bracket and packed it with lots of bearing grease. His bike is only 2 years old and he also rides a Norco 7.2 Charger, so he dissipates his ride time on two bikes as well. Love the content and videos, cheers!

Big fan of my cordless worx hydroshot pressure washer. It’s not as powerful as a standard pressure washer, but I can fill a bucket indoors in the winter and bring it outside to hose off my bike with warm water or toss a water can in my car and hose my bike off after a ride at the trailhead. It gets like 4-5 washer per charge too. Did a small hack with a button battery to enable higher pressure with the short wand for more portability.

Seth: gets bored and tests something people tell him not to do on his $3-4000 bike

[@rupedog]

Why not, it was free. He seems bored. Has a raft of replacement parts ready to go, so yeh.... isn't that the case as well for everyone who starts doing the same and wonders why after 3 months their bearings are toast? Surely?

[@HernanPastenes]

sponsorship bro

[@WhiskerWhippers]

Fishermen do this too. Cast $20 lures into the shit because they get an unlimited supply. They break a $200 rod, no biggie as they have 100 more at home.

[@andreashabeck1155]

Also if he where to ruin his bike, see it as a business expense, he makes more than $3-4000 bucks from this video.

[@liam6324]

I don't think that his hardtail is 3000pound

[@bjorne46]

Very entertaining... especially at 8:40 .... High quality sealed bb bearing. I've specced my bike with a RF Turbine BB. Only lasted 700km before the bearings failed. I guess you should do a long term test on pressure washing the bike, before you can really tell if there is damaga happening.

[@Und4raged_hoon]

I love your vidios the second you post one im watching it you inspired me to start my own youtube channel

[@budgiebreder]

I loved the b roll of the “crazy guy with a pressure washer” type profile pic! Made me laugh! Thanks for that!

Pressure wash from a distance, air dry with compressor, and re lube the chain after!!

[@Antjan46]

Thanks for doing this.. I have always wondered about it

[@BoostedItalia]

I love pressure washing the pedals and tyres to send them to sonic speed 😂

[@eriksdodges853]

Right!

[@coldfox7308]

Getting derailleur jockey wheels to mach1 with an air compressor is quite fun as well

hey seth you're the one who got me into mountain bikeing thank's man

[@JWLamey]

I love these videos. Like myth busters for mountain biking. The scientific method works! Observation, discipline, procedure and experimentation.

[@cariazotv3468]

Seth: I think it wouldn't damage anything. After 1 hour Seth: is there something creaking?

[@M47H383R7]

Protip: the seals on bearings are to keep the grease in, not the water out...

[@deezelfairy]

They are designed to keep contamination out, but not at 1500-3000psi, there not a pressure seal - the lip of the seal lifts and in the water goes.

Seth, You have motivated me to build my own bike trail in my backyard. (4 1/2 acres) You should give a challenge to see who has made the most impressive home bike park. My 1 1/4 miles is lots of fun. Thanks for all the great ideas!

[@jeremybrees]

Good music choice for the "getting the bike dirty" montage. - most youtubers don't focus enough time on these little details. Nice work.

[@fingram5343]

Now I want to wash my bike. *DAMN YOU SETH!* 😂

[@Mindlab1984]

Absolutely agree with you, i washed my E-Bike now for over 3 years in a self washing place for cars with the high pressure washer and had absolutely no problems yet. Distance is everything

Hey Seth I wanted to know what Dimondback I should get with a 2000$ limit and if they ship to Australia

[@ethankugler5375]

William Hartelt I have tried to get it shipped to Australia you have to go through arc beach and they don’t even have that good of the ones, big w has diamondback but you can imagine what a bike from big w is going to be like

[@yeet8215]

Im not sure but i think they only ship in america

[@dachickenking3964]

your better of getting sisiku d7 from bicycles online tbh

[@RufusVIP]

I want to see inside your fork! I work with suspension and see a lot of forks n shocks with water on the inside, this damages even Kashima coating! I would be interested to see if that is because of pressure washing (nobody admits to pressure washing!) Awesome videos, keep up the great work!

[@RufusVIP]

Also: keep pressure washing your suspension, it pays my bills! Lol

[@CzechEngine]

Love this channel so much :-)
