[@jaceowen2428]

We’re can I get aTH1

[@Eric-xc3hh]

That taco holder is so stupid

[@SuperSpeederCarl]

Park tools are the best and only tools in my shop

[@askbeforeplaying2983]

Oh, come on, I really wanted a taco holder, PLEASE RELEASE IT

[@isaactheisaac]

Have you guys made a pancake flipper(A spatula lol)? If not, you totally should.

[@bkxc]

Any CEO that can ride the Giraffe is a pretty cool one in my book!

[@taffycymroukmtb9073]

you will have Get One Brian you would look cool on one buddy lol ;0)

[@robbchastain3036]

And he allows three-wheeler racing on the shop floor, very cool.

[@sraki]

Without helmet on :D!!

[@HoloScope]

I freaking love CEOs that actually have a grasp on their own industry. Too many CEOs these days are purely businessmen

[@christianfoley4001]

This comment aged like Milk.

[@newttella1043]

You know you've made it when Park Tool makes a new tool in your honor.

[@indorider]

I was trained by Calvin at Barnett's back in the early 90's and had met him years before when he was a shop mechanic in Austin. He's a great guy who made classes fun!

[@cliffsangelsphotography]

It's so cool seeing you expand from humble beginnings in Florida to now. Love your channel

[@pauldanielwilliams5136]

This guy inspired me so Mutch to lean how to ride

[@GonkaGonkaGonka]

he had come this far 4 years ago, look at our man now!

[@andrewtataj497]

Park Tool is awesome. Totally overhauled my hard tail this weekend, and I've got their tools and videos to thank for it. Sure, the cost of tools isn't fun, but learning to do it myself was, and saving on the repair costs isn't something to sneeze at in the long run. Cheers all around

[@joel3683]

Couldn't have said it better myself

[@AndrewJMatthews]

A friend of mine asked me to bring a bike to a trade show for some demonstrations. I thought my commute bike was in pretty good working order till I handed it over to Calvin. Within seconds he found stuff wrong with it and was thrilled to show everyone. Happy to say Calvin has worked on my commute whip!

[@danpoo7386]

I can't tell if that taco holder is a joke, it's brilliant 😂😂

[@michaelstringer7066]

Its deffinetly not

[@coophazz1234]

It is 100% not

[@MakeCriminalsIllegalAgain]

Not a joke. They made a pizza cutter also. Still looking for one!!

[@henrybattle3932]

Brisdad53 Haha still no idea!!!!

[@antigonmkd7245]

Who needs taco when you have ajvar

[@WorldwideCyclery]

Loved seeing a behind the scenes look at Park Tool!

[@michaelfabian2401]

Come on now, we're all waiting for a Worldwide Cyclery behind the scenes with SOMEONE.... Come on boys!

[@schneefoen]

Leading figures like you and Park Tool's Pros made it possible for me to maintain my bike better and better. Thank you very much for your great jobs-and the great Park Tool tools as well.

[@plumbingstuffinoregon2471]

2:00 Oh my god! I never thought of using an air compressor to remove grips! That's genius!

[@きぶ-q8c]

mind blown

[@knasicbyer9592]

fr? everyone knows that trick lol

[@The_RC_Dude]

I've known of Park Tool for a long while now, but this video really shows the nice, wholesome people behind the company!

[@jaridkeen123]

Saw this video and orders the Tire Leavers and Chain Lube. I need to replace my Bike Tries and Some lube will do good on my chain.

[@michaelbyrd5573]

Park has been around.... Forever! They continue to make tools right here in the USA. I'll gladly pay to support my fellow Americans. Their KZbin videos are the best. Awesome you got a chance to hang. Great work Seth

[@mtbiata]

the ending is always the best part! 😜

[@arionhylander9519]

ya!

[@squashonly]

I don't mind the beginning, the middle part and everything in between neither

[@TheStabbyCyclist]

Loved seeing inside Park Tool. You're spot on about them being an authority in bike repair. They also seem like a really awesome bunch of people.

[@daanprins6730]

I've got one of their work stands. It wasn't cheap. But I'm still glad I bought it. Makes working on my bike super easy !

[@Driver8takeabreak]

Park's stuff isn't the cheapest, but it's quality, well-designed and will last a LONG time.

[@cpalmermn]

Park Tool was Hazel Park Cycle!?!? Whoa...grew up near Hazel Park in St Paul, mind blown!!!

[@brick.1312]

Duluth is my favorite place to ride! Can’t wait to hear what you think!

[@XboxDoode]

Mission Creek is my fav🙂

[@reesepinney9820]

Looks like Seth hit piedmont, can't wait for that video!!!

[@the1khronohs40]

Cheesy, but very funny! They make dry, bike mechanical learning a bit easier to digest. Kinda like that Seth guy from those old car stereo clips.

[@brien1254]

Awesome seeing a local business on your channel!

[@newbeginnings8566]

Park Tools are great and their outlook on biking and their customers makes me want to come back again...

[@ethanboxer-macomber1913]

Love both channels- awesome collaboration- The taco holder is a great bit of kit!

[@smithfamily710]

Talk about living the dream. Going to the Parktool factory would be a dream come true for a lot of us bike nerds.

[@alexolesky]

The jazzy background music bring back memories for the good ol’ days of the ye old Seth’s bike hacks video

[@AndrewTSq]

Ive bought park tools a few times, and they have worked great. never thought it was this laid back at the factory, feels nice to have supported them now :) great video.

[@cedricspies7127]

Your Videos got me into Mountainbiking and since then im riding all the time. Great Video again keep it up.

[@Ryan-jl9ii]

Allot of channels I get into I get bored of and move on, You are not one of them. Your videos have definitely changed but for the better. You not only have better gear but more experience and even though all your videos are about one thing (bikes) they are each entirely different and fresh. You aren't just making entertainment though, you are what got me to save up $250 (I know that's not that much but I didn't have a job back then) to buy a used Cannondale trail 5. And I use that thing, Even though I can technically drive (I'm 16) I don't because I'm enjoying the commute to school,to the mall, or anywhere I go that's relatively close to my house on my bike.

[@BTTLobo]

Wow. Fantastic ✌️

[@xnorcal831x]

I have been watching their channel for long time. Super great at helping fixxing problems

[@georgeulbrandt]

Hi Seth i really like your videos and I hope you keep them up, especially your bmx series, I loved that series

[@mjfreespirit]

I'm a truck driver. Never in my life have I seen a dock load a unicycle. Awesome!

[@tamserenity]

I did not know this is in Minnesota!! That's home for me!!!

[@maxim54321]

Got a growing collection of park tools in my tool box. Their wire/cable cutters are one of my favourites

[@jacknoname1013]

Best mountain biking channel

[@bernardomartins733]

Go Seth! Go Park Tools! Best KZbin channels together! What a treat!

[@Kot1026]

8:31 Oh, that moment everybody realized Seth is gonna jump out of there

[@huntstyle]

Loved this! Especially the taco holder. I just ate a couple tacos myself! Everyone at Park Tool seems really cool, and there's no doubt, they are the most high quality bike tools out there!

[@reidr7288]

You can’t beat parktools videos on repairs. Where I ride there’s cell service so I’ve used them a lot on trail side repairs.

[@czspeed9209]

What a quality channel!!!

[@wadedinsdale7066]

Been waiting for another Seth's Bike Hacks video. One of the best parts of every week is always when Seth uploads

[@notsponsored103]

Hahaha, really enjoyed this one Seth!

[@tyjackson1850]

Seth!!! I'm waiting on some new tires and upgrades in the mail! Thanks for keeping me sane since I can't ride!

[@Claire-yv7lu]

I love your vids Seth, I'm getting a nicer bike soon and I'm so siked up, you got me into the sport

[@germanhugger41]

I bought a Park TS- 2 wheel truing stand and tilting base over 25 years ago, and I'm still using it today... It's paid for itself several times over.. I also have a DAG 2 derailleur hanger adjustment tool, and a Park PRS-21 super light repair stand...I also own lots of small Park tools like spoke keys, and cassette and bottom bracket tools....

[@jadenharrison9420]

Awesome video I love Park Tool

[@vincentramirez6138]

Thanks for putting the scene of our trail. I'm in it at 7:50.

[@onnoe4374]

Your the reason I mountain bike!😁

[@tyson_hickman]

Connor Phillips same here

[@Maxwolfie-zf7ff]

Connor Phillips same

[@antrum6538]

You're*

[@onnoe4374]

Snake_the_Slayer ok

[@bradenm8030]

Awesome to know you visited a nearby area! Hope you enjoyed what you could for trails up in Duluth, can't wait to here about it!

[@randomtwiggster7713]

I live in Minesota! *You should have set up a riding day!!!* Also, does anybody know of good trails to ride in the area just south of Minneapolis? I know Duluth and northern Minnesota have great trails butbi don't live up there.

[@jfkusa123]

RandomTwiggster check Trailforks, there are trails all over the cities. The closest to Minneapolis is probably theo wirth park, but there are great trails all over the place

[@randomtwiggster7713]

jfkusa123 Thanks! I will check trailfork out.

[@Chris-pw7ov]

Just south as in suburbs or south as in southern mn?

[@randomtwiggster7713]

chris s. south as in the suburbs

[@CrazyIvan21]

Lebanon Hills (Eagan), Murphy Hanneran (Shakopee) Elm Creek (North West Cities)

[@samisugipulayoutube]

Hey Seth, here's a bike hack, you can use a piece of old inner tube to put a hand pump right next to the "basic" water bottle cage, you just have to undo the top screw and put the tube in the middle of the screws, and you just put the pump next to it and done, Ow and also love your vids, keep up the good work👌🏻

[@TrailFeatures]

I think I've played too many video games... @5:34 my brain saw him riding that bike and it kinda looked like a bad clipping issue. 🙃

[@sc0608023]

You mean the wheel partially sunk into the ground? haha

[@DinnerForkTongue]

Trail Features Also dropping frames 😂

[@freerangemtb]

I never even considered the Park Tool would have a KZbin channel. Thanks for showing this. -Brian

[@bikercad6828]

I am on the mountain bike team that Calvin helps with and I was there when the trail work got rained out, that was a ton of rain

[@randomrcprojects3754]

I love watching park tool videos they helped me with my derailleur adjustment

[@mountainbikeben4815]

That must be the funniest job to work there 😂😂

[@awesometuscaloosa7203]

What an amazing group of people, my tools park tool of course! Cheers!

[@steezmane7725]

# Notification squad

[@TheNorthernRider]

This is EXACTLY how a company should be! this was awesome Thanks Seth!

[@swedishdagger8410]

I love park tool and their products, but I’m not spending all that money on their repair stand

[@michaelmathis1961]

It is money well spent JakesNew. So ride you bike to work and fix a few sandwiches for lunch and save what you would have spent on fuel and eating out and over time you will have the money to buy it!

[@gnashmelllow]

Before this i sort of viewed Parktool as corporate industry, but seeing this made me feel much better about buying their stuff. It is still privately owned and is run by bikers for bikers. Nice.

[@jace378]

Say I only have $500 what is a good bike to get

[@marcflaherty6905]

probably a used hardtail

[@bingrusginckle]

Jace get something used

[@LithicKing]

The specialized pitch got redesigned for 2018, and is now a true mountain bike. Starts at $500. Check it out.

[@karloslowry9043]

Jace a Harley

[@kfstreich4787]

My first serious bike was $675 In 1993... wtf has become of bikes?

[@BikeSleepRepeat]

I waited two weeks for this?? WORTH IT!!!

[@seenhoods7229]

Hey Seth I have a hard tail mob bike with skinny tire what would you say the limits are

[@ethanforeverything5871]

Great video totaly worth the wait from the editing you had to do can't wait for next week's video

[@hermanhakansson1765]

Come to sweden pls

[@harmlesscivilian]

I live in MN and never knew that there were bike parks here. There is a bike park close to my home, but it isn't much. I'm glad too find out that there are good bike parks as close as Duluth.

[@joshkough2185]

I live in dulth

[@weevil_man]

Josh Kough well visit park tool then !!!

[@lakemartin1664]

I live in Minnesota and I absolutely love this. Also can’t wait for the Duluth ride since I have done a mountain bike race there.😎

[@MaQuGo119]

clearly not FIRST

[@sussyplaya-sj6pj]

I miss the videos glad you uploaded again

[@Jack_Sin_Schlussel]

PICKLE RICK!!!!!!!!!

[@mauriceschiefer9384]

[@fumeokid]

I just saw this.. what a great video! I was working on my Bike and ended up watching the whole thing! Thanks for the great content and the break! :)

[@Vikky-hp5vy]

Is it just me or does all the people who commented on this video have weird usernames

[@bradley2042]

It is so true

[@NateFastBikes]

Best part of my week is seeing that new video notification.

[@rafaelgalhardo3890]

I from Brazil

[@conman1395]

[@karloslowry9043]

[@andyginther8562]

Yeah man that was great! Really cool to see company. I love seeing that trailer at shows. Hope to see more vids from Whistler.

[@joedpettit1691]

Average opening shot... haha

This was the quickest 10 minutes of my life. That's how good this was

[@aussietruckphotosandmodels8510]

[@willjohnson5819]

[@chrisgoodnight1599]

I learned nearly everything I know about working on bikes from those Park Tool videos!

[@overlandperformance338]

118th

[@ryanhooper4660]

Not sure how I have lived here for 12 years and didn't know that was near my old house... really cool to stumble on this!

[@ryanfowlow6314]

very over priced in my opinion

[@digitalrailroader]

Ryan Fowlow only because they are the number one authority on bicycle tools.

[@michaelmathis1961]

I have as many Park tools as I can find. Living in Thailand, they are scarce and expensive so I get what I need when in the states. Thanks for the video Seth.

[@ditinikolli731]

[@mtadams2009]

Bought a nice set of Park Tools a couple of years ago. I fix machines for a living and I like nice tools. I have not been disappointed. Good stuff not cheap crap off of Amazon.

[@flakeyjay]

Looks like an amazing corp culture and even better people. I like the fact that taco's have made it all the way up to Minnesota. Living in SA TX taco's are a big part of my life as well! Great works Seth amazing content and hope to get my self back into biking shape!

[@garrisonboyd1701]

I watched a number of park tool videos to get my bike fixed up and when I needed a chain tool I bought the more expensive park tool one. Great marketing 👌.

[@dirtbiker200622]

I hope you had a great time in my home town. It’s too bad you got rained out. Murphey Leb and Elm are probably three of the best the Twin Cities have to offer in my opinion.

[@Revy8]

never heard of park tool guys till now. very impressed

[@ronilaba]

Watching Seth a day before I start vacation. Life is good!

[@sachaverwijmeren3793]

Watching this was a great way to finish the day

[@pedalsandplants5725]

I attended Barnett Bicycle Institute back in the summer of 1994, Calvin Jones was the lead instructor. He was wise way back then, learned so much from him!

[@stoneseabolt]

I didn't realize they had their own channel. I love their tools and whatnot, soooooo, subscribed!

[@TCENDURO]

At my college in Kansas we had this freshmen my junior year who ride one one bigger than that one it was so rad to see. Awesome video!

[@kingofstuff1732]

Park tool is affordable and is made amazingly well. Very high quality. Ten out of five stars!

[@t5spdtoys]

I appreciate the inside look and the giant unicycle.

[@Saloron2]

That's so awesome! I hope you stopped in the Hayward, WI area on your way back as well. I grew up around there, and biking is growing quick around there. I haven't been on them personally but there is an extensive system there!

[@TheBomberboyZ]

Ah if only I had discovered you earlier!! Park Tools is less than a mile away from me!
