How Not To Wash Your Mountain Bike After A Ride

[@gmbn]

What's the longest your bike has been without getting a scrub?

[@maiconwerplotz7206]

Ow.....weeks.....mud has its beauty

[@marcmoore4115]

Just the other day, I haven't been riding on the trails recently due to not living near any :'( also will you guys ever look at doing a race in southern Africa? My suggestion would be the Desert Dash in Namibia! It's a 373km race across the Namib Desert! Would be nice to see you guys try something like that. Love the vids, keep it up!

[@th_js]

Well months, because it's so snowy and freezing that I don't need to wash my bike in the whole winter at all!!

[@ellisberry8747]

My bmx 3 years,and yes I used it as a mountain bike as I couldn't afford one It used to get fully caked on the daily

[@billy2258]

Few weeks 😂

[@7ghost_gaming7]

My heart hurts just watching this...

[@gmbn]

Then our job here is done!

[@jamie-kd9tx]

i was literally scrubbing dried mud off my bike then got a notification for this

[@domciau]

@@jamie-kd9tx :)

[@hristovargolomov2999]

Heart doesn't hurt!

[@tortoise4429]

lol

[@marcmoore4115]

4:53 did Blake just say thank you for washing this video?

[@lukerossi6437]

Marc Moore I was about to say

[@Zimblake]

Marc Moore 👌😁

[@markonikolic1386]

Yep

[@lauritsziersen3458]

yep

[@marchitoalcantara8615]

Its his accent thats makes it sound like that

[@rupedog]

Liking the pilgrim / samson dynamic.... awesome

[@BizBBiz]

My first thought, too! I would love to see what the 2 of them can come up with for riding content.

[@matthewmazzalupo8805]

Yes the 2 best mountain bikers on KZbin Edit: I forgot about Seth’s Bike Hacks. He’s good to.

[@Accretion67]

Best duo ever!

[@Asgath]

To honest I regularly blast my Giant Anthem down and its onto. Its 5th year and going strong. I avoid spraying directly on the forks/shock/bearings etc. Seems to be fine.

[@obeswinney5216]

“Thank you so much for washing this video!” 😂

[@MonsieurBright]

i heard the same thing lmao

[@fergusstewart1911]

I thought I heard it wrong lol

[@blackturbine]

Yall are mad about this cleaning techniques I still can't get over that brake squeal

[@brdyyt6702]

Me too. I thought one of them had rubber pad calliper brakes.

[@Losovox]

That’s my brakes normally when they’re wet lol

[@seethroughwheels]

that was so painful to watch!!!!

[@gmbn]

Then our job here is done!

[@leonardoabate4699]

*wash

[@MABFR01]

I cried at the brushes wash 😢

[@miliv3426]

The pressure washer in my opinion is the best way to get rid of mud, but you have to be cautious around bearings.

[@lukenukem1164]

Sam and Blake....when you know it won't be a serious video! 😁

[@philwise3541]

‘For Sale - pristine condition full sus MTB, one careful owner...honest guv’.

[@alexsavvas3878]

no bikes were harmed in the making of this video

[@lukerossi6437]

Alex Savvas up the mighty tigers

[@th_js]

I wish that was true ;)

[@pythonix144]

Ayyy Tigers! Straya

[@UltraJettPressureWashing]

4:53 thank you very much for washing this video😂 i have to say Blake is by far my favourite and funniest rider

[@olroymtbetc.6117]

Monny abuse at its finest! Sam and Blake??? What an amazing combination of personalities!! Satirical, humorous, and creative. A clean bike always works better, and is more enjoyable to work on if adjustments are required. Dirty bikes just aren't cool!

[@oddymanskewiff]

sorry guys I apologize I had a bad day and vented on you, my bad. love everything you lot do for us.

[@HNXMedia]

What kind of rich bloke can afford to waste a Monster cleaning their bike? I'd rather drink it and then try to pee on my bike. It would be "cleaner" after all.

[@lauritsziersen3458]

LOL

[@mattgies]

A bloke who's sponsored by Monster!

[@HNXMedia]

@@mattgies Good point.

[@ftrujillomunizaga]

lmao

[@joeocarroll1561]

I bet Doddy was crying watching this!

[@peteralleyman1388]

I bought a battery driven "medium pressure" cleaner from Kärcher. You can take it with you in your car if you want. It has a firm spray but is safe for the sensitive parts. Really like it.

[@D_J_G88]

Thanks for washing 😂

[@LucasJewell105]

Iam so happy that Sam Pilgrim is in this video he is my favorite MTB rider

[@michaelloch3783]

Nice one with the monster Technique Sam!

[@jackbeames7643]

Um when I went to Leogang there was a river right near the bike park. I was there when a race was on and many people were washing there bikes in the river. But I guess it was fresh water straight of the mountain. So it wasn’t as bad.

[@johannesf.4567]

Haha I know that river too

[@gmbn]

Still not ideal!

[@chrismurray4656]

Also not great for the river...

[@jackbeames7643]

Chris Murray true

[@jackbeames7643]

Johannes F. You from there?

[@ImRiixBruh]

I didn't expect you guys to actually do it

[@jnj3254]

Sam is the specialist with those things

[@leifcian4288]

Every time I go out in the rain I dry the thing off with a rag, helps clean it while it's still wet but as it's all drying on that corrosion starts and then it's more difficult to deal with. It might take a little while and you need a proper place around the house to do it but all the little things you check as you go around with a rag saves a lot of time with maintenance in the long run. Also your not polluting anything except the rag and that's easy to store out the way and then dispose of properly in a variety of ways.

[@jcsrst]

Sam Pilgrim is a great example of what not to do hahaha!!!

[@2nd3rd1st]

Not to forget, washing your bike in a pond releases grease and oil into the environment. People who preach about picking up trash from the trail and then do that kind of stuff are uncool.

[@mtbboy1993]

depends on the lube used, but grease won't get out as easily, due to seals, but water can come in. there are temperamentally friendly lubes, that don't hurt the nature, but most lubes are nasty stuff.

[@timbne]

Lol i cracked up at 2:06 CRACK A MONNY A CLOCKKKK!

[@reindeerrr]

Tweet

[@lewisharrison2124]

How did that crack you up it's just cringe

[@Meihan_god]

Sam is crazy

[@timbne]

@@lewisharrison2124 why isnt it fun to have a laugh

[@mortonfrankfire5400]

That was pretty funny. I bet Haibike looked like this 😱 when Sam chucked his eeeb in that pool! 🛁🚽🛁❗️

[@dannyb9795]

4:40 Water can go inside your wheel bearings, right?

[@Ricochetmex]

It is truly hard when you are washing your bike and suddenly is Crackamoni timeee! Haha great to see Sam again, is was kinda akward in the christmas special...

[@hanyaoyap1826]

The bike was crying

[@THAxBLiNt]

ah the classic monny and brush. Great video boys

[@sgallo00]

So Monster and a broom it is. Thanks for the tips.

[@Zimblake]

Scott Gallo 🤣🤣🤣

[@lees8024]

As usual thanks for the tips, save me a fortune on products

[@evanadams19]

The torque is beautiful

[@hedemalmcarl]

If using pressure washed, use a spray mode and have some distance and it should, better than a full jet close to the bearings, ONLY blast the tires

[@RobRidesEMTB]

Lol! Coming next: cover it in Cillit Bang and run it on the back of a truck through a car wash 🔥

[@Humbletrader08]

The monster drink got me 😆

[@fordtrac7171]

I have been known of a few dunks in Windermere 😂 to keep her moist until I get home !

[@arbuncklecycling]

Blake and Sam are a super funny pair.

[@gabkoost]

Car washes are fine. Just don't use the concentrated jet and you'll be more than fine.

[@tychoMX]

I fell knee-deep on a creek once - fat bike, early winter, broken ice on a dubious trail. The bike's smell was unbearable. We stopped at a car wash. Best $5 spent on bicycle-related stop. Done as well after obscenely muddy frozen cross races. I only really do it when it's below zero since I prefer to do this calmly at home, but for those conditions car washes are great.

[@th_js]

I love these funny videos, ESPECIALLY WITH SAM PILGRIM!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻👌🏻👌🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@gmbn]

Cheers Tomi!

[@lesteramarales2585]

Should have added Sams dance music when he cracks open that monster energy drank!

[@cookiesrgood1802]

I like how he posted this in the winter (at least for me)

[@lucasspielmannmtb]

Canyon torque... That dream bike !

[@bigkiller5574]

Hi great video guys. Have you guys done a how to wash them properly if not they would be great. Keep up the great videos 👍

[@gmbn]

Yep we've got that a few times! Check over our maintenance archive!

[@jackgolden1774]

You can use the jet wash but just don’t get it too close because it will hurt your bearings

[@gmbn]

You sure can!

[@bennetttyson8244]

The beerwash! Nothing better 😂

[@willbergin4709]

4:54he said thank you for washing the video😂😂😂😂

[@The_RC_Dude]

4:55 I see your pun there Blake!

[@spuddo123]

[@duncandehulst2016]

Tomorrow is park day, whilst im here 12 o clock at night watching how not to wash my bike... Great xD

[@MissingLinkMTB]

I hope Doddy hasn't watched this video, and if he does will GMBN pay for his mental health counseling? I know I'm losing my mind. Entertained, sure.... that's a word, lol.

[@michaelstewart9308]

My guess is that doddy was asked to clean and regrease all the bearings... Poor doddy

[@shinkoreancookery952]

I love it how Sam goes mental when he sees a monster can

[@beardedvikingmtber]

The ledge Sam pilgrim......to the skyyyyyyy

[@Max-pt4tx]

Monster>muc off Some of these genuinely hurt to watch, so good job lads 😂.

[@shark2075]

My favorite rider duo of all times is at it again ! Pilgrim made me cringe with the monnie on the bike tho 😂😂

[@ZeroSeriesMMX]

I'm getting the feeling that this vid is what Sam shot before getting a bit smashed on the Christmas Dirt Shed Show. 😂 Either there was a sound of a heart nearly breaking, or insane post-shoot hilarity.

[@timohmtb]

Sam is just in his Element!😂😂😂

[@manardi506]

This video was sick

[@naoyukisasanami]

Sam got a style roughest MTBer is the world

I fell into a stream once. My bike was pretty clean afterwards.

[@TheBirchCreek]

A ride in deep fresh snow works great.

[@neadventures3293]

Hysterical one guys!!!😂😂

[@UdaySheet]

Thanks for the video, it's helpful.

[@sarahsong5578]

To everyone that disliked the video: They sacrificed their own bike to show you what not to do and now you're disliking the video?

[@benbonnice7289]

😅😂 why do have all the “not to do”things with Sam pilgrim 😅😂

[@loginbreaux5855]

I live at college and don’t exactly have access to a hose I really don’t know how to clean my bike other than a bike wash station at the state park

[@scoobgirl]

Hey look its spam pilgrim , he gets everywhere does that Sam haha

[@mendyviola]

Hubby does the power washer method not only in his bicycle but his motorcycles as well, then wonders why things break/fail (electronics, bearings, hydraulics , etc). For a guy with a mechanical background, he’s got a few “gaps”. 😂

[@2famous4u11]

washing this video was so entertaining!

[@coffeedrinker9983]

Just love the product placement, lol

[@giagrandefilms]

push the pain button 3:10

[@gertkriel5764]

No why my heart is melting

[@Trailz6of7]

That’s how i always cleaned my bmx as a kid. Streams were cleaner 30 yrs ago.

[@stefanoskam3578]

Nice footage and funny also !!!

[@TrailDave]

This hurt to watch. But I loved the "CRACK A MONNIEEE!!!!!!!!" hilarious

[@horusgarcia1]

Did he say, "thanks for washing this content". I was screaming no! with the sea water.

[@TrollingBerry]

Thank you very much for washing this Video

[@atillabalci809]

I just love how they tell you just how bad these methods are and then they screw up their components and frames with these methods

[@garygrimes7349]

Yes! SAM PILGRIM

[@vattai5777]

Respect+ for making all of these bad things by yourself to your own bike

[@angelocordero5661]

Two or three days then I can't take it no more on that note car washes have a spot free Rinse that is very light spray that works well on softening muddy material. - Utah Rider

[@seven9766]

I never clean my bike. A ride in the rainy roads gets rid of most of the mud accumulated overtime. I take good care of my mech tho, not much dirt left there.

[@YeetxBoi]

I find road water to be very hard on my skin if I leave it there let alone on my poor dying bike, especially in the winter time because it picks that salt up off the road too and that will literally eat your paint if you leave it for a couple days on anything not powder coated.

[@soun1270]

What kind of canyon bike do you have? It’s looks insane

[@jnj3254]

How to clean bike Philgrim:yes
