Cassette Removal and Installation

[@snoopshomes]

I have shimano XT brakes. These videos are just great. I posted on another one you have as well. There is definitely a market for good production videos teaching the subscriber how to do proper maintenance. These are literally some of the best I've found. Please keep it up.

[@1980orangeman]

Guys excellent video! I completeld this just now after ordering all the parts. It's literally a 5 minute job! Saved me some money taking it to a shop. Thanks 👍

[@sweetsbench]

Yo, sorry for the delay. We are planning on doing more videos in the very near future. Bleeding brakes and replacing cables are at the top of our list! What kind of brakes are you wanting to bleed? (avid, shimano, hayes...?)

[@iagah123]

Best simplest tech videos i have seen . Thanks

[@stevegeek]

Nice vid. Worth also to mention to check for spacers before cassette is put in place. I missed this trick and caused me no end of grief! If you put a 10 speed cassette on an 11 speed hub you need a 1mm and 1.85mm spacer together.

[@Darkskynet1]

You make it look so easy, I'm having real issues getting mine off...

[@snoopshomes]

This video was awesome. Best one I've ever seen. Please keep these up! Can you do one on bleeding brakes, replacing cables, etc?

[@alangibbs182]

Excellent video, demystifies this task, anyone can tackle this job now!

[@stuartstu73]

i`m glad yours came off so easy cause mine won`t budge

[@tenshi7angel]

The tool won't even fit into the fucking hole on mine. Outrageous!

[@tuliobenavidez9952]

He's a powerful eyed person,, vanishes tools with pure eye power ( a little frowning too )

[@paulinetluong]

I enjoy your bike repair videos! Please make more!

[@PaulFreemanTheTall]

Very clear, and fun presentation. My first one went very easily.

[@allanbollins4918]

cheers guys just did my 1st cassette change with your help easy as once you see it done

[@benitezjosem30]

Excellent tutorial. Thank you.

[@myscreen2urs]

What do you do if your axle is too wide to slide the lock ring on? I have 14mm wide axle and can't find lock rings for that size.

[@sweetsbench]

you can replace the pads without bleeding as long as the brake is functioning properly. If the lever drops to the bar, before or after replacing pads, then that means there's air in the line and it should be bled. Good luck!

[@blueskyguy5415]

Well done, lads.

[@mangyanho]

Great and impressive tutorial awesome, stay con thanks

[@jassemgambito2458]

EXCELLENT. SHORT VIDEO WITH EVERYTHING YOU ALL NEED TO KNOW

[@GhostlySoulRemains]

Watched that intro twice. Made my bad day so much fuckin better xD

[@sonofwhat2615]

Thanks for the info. Just about to put a cassette on my new wheel.

[@justintyme2570]

I don't know if I want you working on my bike, you might stare at it and it will explode😂

[@tuliobenavidez9952]

Better do the job yourself kind sir,, his eyes are too powerful

[@snoopshomes]

I have shimano XT, the pads are G01a. Do you need to bleed the brakes when you change the pads or can you just swap out the worn out pads?

[@Unboxingandreviews2021]

is removal of the rear cassette necessary to thoroughly clean it? I have a really grungy rear cassette.

[@brw147]

No but it's certainly a lot easier and more thorough.

[@mdakasha]

Hi make more videos! It's very good Cos it's really detailed.

[@capeman10]

Thank you, funny, and excellent info.

[@sweetsbench]

Thanks, we're working on it!

[@worzysp1]

My cassette won't come off! Got the locking ring off and 2 coggs but the cassette stuck. If tried hitting through the other side with a bar nothing! Any ideas????

[@EverythingsBeenDone]

Well done boys!

[@flapjaques]

I had to hold in the lockring tool in with the skewer, put my foot on the chain whip, and hit the wrench with a hammer. That got it moving.

[@rossbotha891]

Nice and simple, good explanation

[@georgegilles9008]

Awesome instructions.

[@josebermudez4730]

Great video contrat

[@xxiamxx5535]

what is that part that is attaches spokes and hub, they look like Vs

[@romcallis]

I was always told to turn the crescent the other way so the brunt of the leverage is on the bulkier top half

[@pabloqtoo]

Done the job for me. Thanks!

[@wbocxe]

Awesome videos!

[@jnbeatnik]

Good vid. Watch your knuckles folks!

[@davidbradley1692]

Great video, thanks!

[@sweetsbench]

If it's a newer bike, chances are you just need the standard shimano style tool. But if it's an older bike with a freewheel, or Campagnolo, it could be a number of different tools.

[@vicentesoare]

excellent video

[@sidewalks22]

Im glad he aint my bicycle shop dude,, his eyes can blast anythn,,

[@renancabanes47]

No need spacer ?

[@sugianto2071]

Thanks very nice

[@terrickwaithe6636]

Thanks this was helpful

[@skater51o]

Great video, and late comment, but what hub/wheelset is this?

[@SubaruWRC1996]

My cassette has just starting to get problems. When I'm trying to pedals the cassette is not locking to spin the wheel, it's the cassette spinning it's self

[@JerrySmiler1968]

Check your jockey wheels are not gunked up.

[@Kasper_UK]

What grease should i apply to the lockring? WD40? :)

[@garthhh]

No, PB Blaster :p

[@YeetxBoi]

Kasper Kristensen any reputable brand will work wonders such as PB Blaster, Liquid Wrench, or WD-40

[@hakanyldrm759]

very good thanks

[@jerryanstey7058]

Try removing one thats been on a bicycle for 20 years! it\s easy to remove new stuff thats never beened used

[@dad_in_va]

Might have to use the skewer to hold down the lock ring tool. Just a FYI for any guys watching.

[@Corfine]

27 spanner good power for moving cassette

[@josephstalin4202]

Can't open mine, is like 200 pound, too hard to open, need more muscles

[@sandorfarkas1138]

Ügyes

[@jethroibarrola6356]

The best

[@SONGBIRDFLARE]

why do you need chain whip? I don't think you need it.

[@windsunh2o]

Try it without it. You'll see why you need it.

[@SONGBIRDFLARE]

David Taylor did it!! My bicycle no need this tool! I opened with no issue without this tool!

[@windsunh2o]

+Michael Cher Cool! How did you manage it? I have not been able to.

[@SONGBIRDFLARE]

David Taylor Here bro what other guy wrote me! I just have different type of the cassette! Check the website! "If you can unscrew your cassette with just the splined tool you have a freewheel, not a freehub. Totally different animal. If you have a freehub cassette then you have to use the chainwhip to hold the sprockets and freehub still while you unscrew the lockring. You can read about the differences between freehub and freewheel at Sheldon Brown's great website on bikes. Here's a link: sheldonbrown.com/k7.html"

[@SONGBIRDFLARE]

David Taylor i made a mistake and bought this good tool - will keep it to use in another bike www.ebay.com/itm/111980742419?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

[@moklys]

super!

[@rafehoile7349]

rly gd vid thanks!

[@N1NJ46UY]

Not a bad video

[@ramshadramshad4923]

Really

[@surfagbg9102]

Kanon

[@matthewvarney6214]

Lol

[@Jordan-ot7qf]

Dude you’re so high

[@mikel4510]

If you can't use something as simple as an adjustable (Crescent) wrench properly, why should any one watch your videos?

[@theanimaster]

Wish I had found this channel before I set upon my bike this morning! Took a whole day and didn't get the cassette cleaned thoroughly at all. When I get the chance -- can I soak the components in gasoline to clean it? Is there any mix of gasoline I should be aware of?

[@chrisherz6631]

Use Kero or diesel instead.

[@pabloqtoo]

Done the job for me. Thanks!
