If you smear dielectric grease on the finger tips of any gloves, it will make them work on touch screens forever even after washing them. You only need a small amount and no it won't make you lose grip either. You can get it from auto parts stores, its used for electrical connectors.

[@boomerangfreak]

My wallet can attest it doesn't like the DLC chains

[@stevenwaldon4469]

I came here to say that. I've seen DLC chains last for ages with very little wear. Long enough to offset the cost of cheaper chains that you'll likely have to replace more frequently.

[@stevenwaldon4469]

*with proper maintenance.

[@mtbboy1993]

@@stevenwaldon4469 Depends on how flexy and much of an drivetrain abuser the bike is, I managed to wear it very fast, but my bike wears all chains fast, I haven't noticed much difference performance with DLC & SL chains. i haven't tested it on my hardtail, but the SL chain worked well on my hardtail.

0:24 Or get a big estate car and put the back seats down (regular airbed or camping foam a good idea). Plenty of room to stretch your legs then too. "CaRmping" is so underrated. Much quicker and convenient than a tent, protects you from the wind and rain much better.

If I am not mistaken, parts are available for the mini floor pump. To me, this means the makers intend it to be a long lasting addition to your kit. I have had one for over a year and have used it in the field twice for tube replacement and several times for top up. I use the included bracket with velcro strap to secure it to my MTB. I cut a 2" ranger band and slipped it over the handle and hose end to protect and keep it from rattling. It works well. I have had a Lezyne high volume pump for longer and I consider this mini to be as well made and less expensive. Where it is smaller, it naturally takes a few more strokes to to the job. Thanks for another great video.

Hey Seth. My name is Theo, and I am a 13 year old mountain bike lover. I don't know if you will read this, but if you do, hi from Portland OR! I couldn't help but notice that you had magura brakes on the red diamondback full suspension bike, and much to my excitement, I just purchased a pair of MT6s that need a lot of TLC. There are very few resources on the internet for bleeding and hose replacement of magura brakes in particular, so I was hoping that you would make a video on hydraulic disc brake maintenance and hose replacement, or at least bleeding tips and tricks from a semi-pro (you, of course). Thank you so much for all the help you've given me over the last year, and keeping making awesome content!

For the touchscreen gloves: Could you put a *small ball bearing* between the glove and the capacitive pad, so reduce the pad's surface area touching your phone screen, reducing the number of typos you make?

[@Yonatan24]

@@geemail369 Not exactly the same effect, but I suppose that could work too! Some clever out of the ball thinking!

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

The larger the pad, the more effective it is. Large surface area is important to generate the capacitive effect necessary for the touch screen to register the contact. If you cut it smaller, you reduce its effectiveness. It would make more sense to use a small fingertip wrap that has a little pointy stylus about 1/4" long.
