[@aoe76]

The videos speaks a lot for you Josh. You are a fabulous storyteller 👍

[@Josh-Reid]

Wow, thank you!

[@ianbarker1959]

Really enjoyable video. What characters.

[@gearsofmedicine]

So Josh, we need a listing of your bikes; and most favourite Road and Gravel bikes; even if Giant is ok!

[@garysladek9110]

Cheers, Josh, really enjoyed that one.

[@Josh-Reid]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@cb6866]

Thanks Nic , Josh , and James , my Redshift stem is squeaking !!

[@nicvieri2627]

A tiny bit of grease on the rubbers should sort it

[@jamesherd9132]

Thanks Josh something a bit different Really Enjoyed

[@Josh-Reid]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@mustacherides420]

Thanks to Nic recommending them in video after video, all the bearings on my gravel bike are Enduro bearings now. I probably wont' maintain them properly but at least they're less likely to rust.

[@Josh-Reid]

Good choice! 👍

[@lordgonzo.]

Good watch. Liked the pliers link up on the tatt 👍

[@andarenbici]

For the brake pad, could it just be refaced?

[@andarenbici]

I mean rebedded with the bedding machine.

[@nicvieri2627]

Possibly yes. You’ll lose some pad surface. But this customer wasn’t interested. He wanted new ones fitted and a new rotor. Just to be extra safe

[@Michael-s5i5j]

Was in Newcastle last year for almost a week and never could find Nicks old Backyard bike shop,there was a little sign by the river but for the life of me could not find it Pleased to see his has new shop now

[@nicvieri2627]

Hidden away. Definitely ring us next time and we will give you directions 🙌🏼

[@hugog930]

[@randyhale4181]

It's always good see Nic ,after all he is the man...👍🏻

[@nicvieri2627]

You’re too kind. Thanks mate

[@darrenhowe9636]

Is James the guy who trashes bikes for fun according to jimmy and Francis?

[@MrKrekkie]

Redshift vs future shock anyone compared?

[@davidbianic4350]

Come for the bike mechanics, stay for the coffee making

[@geetee4037]

Defo visiting when i'm in Newcastle.

[@NigelTurnbull]

[@nicvieri2627]

All those metal plates you have inside you

[@NigelTurnbull]

[@thecyclingsoldier6732]

Most work I’ve seen Nic do this ❤️

[@nicvieri2627]

Someone had to pick up the slack after you left

[@cb6866]

[@pjcaps100]

Is this why my bike takes so long? Mechanics too busy making movie films?
