What parts fit your mountain bike? (I won't tell you to just Google it)

Mountain bikes have a whole lot of parts, and sometimes it's not so straightforward finding the ones that fit. People message me all the time asking what parts fit their bike, and so I'd like to think they did a lot of Googling and struck out. What do you even Google search? Is there a better way? Today, we'll cover the basics!
Yes, this video is way oversimplified and at times, flat out dismissive of details. I know Sram and Shimano 12 speed MTB chains aren’t “perfectly” compatible. Some bikes have freewheels and don’t take cassettes. There was a time where no bike took a thru axle. You could in theory buy a 12 speed HG cassette which would be incompatible with Microspline, which I omitted. Yes, rims have widths too. Older bikes have rim brakes. Valve caps aren’t universal-especially since some riders are going back to shrader. In our original footage I went on forever about wheels and Boost, but we edited it down to a minute because it felt overwhelming and counterproductive. In the end I didn’t feel these caveats would be important to someone who doesn’t have enough experience to Google something. This will hopefully be a simple and welcoming way to get them started out. Thanks for understanding, and feel free to include more info below because the comment section itself is a valuable resource.

Cheaper bikes forks break pretty quick on rough stuff but other than that get some decent tyres and later better brakes and then wider handle bars an you’ll be great tho everything won’t be as durable on budget bikes especially rims so jus keep that in mind

Tip: If you have an older bike, most large bike companies have an "archive" of past bikes different years. Vital MTB also has good archives of specs and geomentry of different bikes. My bike is a couple years old, and by going to its manufacturer's archive, I can see all its specs and what parts fit.

I will admit when I first started mountain biking a couple of years ago, I had questions that I considered asking Seth, just seems so approachable and knowledgeable. I didn't and that's because I looked at the subscriber count between the channels and figured I couldn't be the only one out there wanting to ask a question and I know as a content creator his schedule is pretty full, especially now being a Dad. I think this video is a good start and Thanks Seth for making it as well as all the other content over the years. Keep riding folks.

I bought a new mountain bike for 150 dollars from my local store. I am from India and upgradability and adding new parts are very hard. Roads in India are very rough and that was the main reason I bought a mountain bike to go school. But after a few rides I don't know how , cycling always brings the joy during the tight schedule of life . So then I started spending some time for my bike and then the fate dawned on me, since I bought a cheap bike upgrading was no easy task for me . But most of your videos helped me in most tasks . So this video was a very helpful one for me. Also I had to mention that I started watching your videos from the time when you made a video about the Mongoose fat bike .

Bike parts nowadays ain't cheap, but somehow Shimano is still able to provide quality affordable components. MT200 hydraulic brakes and Alivio gropuset are always good for their price, compared to road bike parts. Even Shimano Sora can't compare to MT200+Alivio when it comes to price vs performance. I rarely ride off road but my setup is MT200+Alivio. Bad city pavement and overpriced road bike parts kinda forced me to use budget MTB parts for my casual cycling.

any bike you buy from the local store for less than $300 is a toy, meant to be ridden infrequently and not that hard. Something you would buy your kid when they said "i want a bike" and then when they break it you bin it. I get things are not easy over there in india but my advice would be: Save up hard and when it's time for the next bike go check out CRC and see what they have in one of their many sales. I picked up a £1k XC bike for £350 in 2015 from them in the summer sale.

bikes that cheap should only be ridden till they break, then you should decide if you want to ride a proper bike or to continue the pain of riding some messed up cheap bike. But you can focus on the ergonomics- better grips, some wider handlebar (if possible), new pedals. And the only upgrade should be the tires, they make all the difference. When you try to upgrade that cheap thing, you end up with bad frame with added expensive parts. Then you realize that you should have bought that "expensive" bike with all the good parts, design, technology.

I've only just recently done my own drivetrain maintenance and took off my cassette and indexed my own gears without any bike store help which feels really good. I now need to figure out how to bleed my hydro brakes and pump some air into my air fork.

Hey Seth how are you doing. I started riding Mountain bikes only last year. I bought a Gary Fisher rig hard tail, so the question I have is for the bottom bracket. I purchased a Race Face drive train or crank. What I didn't know is that it was going to be a nightmare to remove this crazy Trex contraption holding the crank in a 56mm bottom bracket. I'm going to look it up myself but I wanted a reason to message other than to say I watch your Flip show religiously. I just wanted to show my appreciation and gratitude as I've learned tons from watching. I'm in my 40's now and want to be in the parks this coming season. I don't know how I've gone this long without a mountain bike. It's my new passion. Once again love the shows, keep up the great work! Thanks Scott B🚵

I feel your pain, I learned not to ask and look for the info myself. have put many of your videos to good use on my fat tire ebike, have a mtb on the way and have been googling for days, checking websites, reading manufacturers pdf files on the bike and parts, ordering compatible parts. its been crazy but at the same time satisfying because I know once I get the parts they will ALL fit without no issues. Only time i ask something is if i REALLY need too or need to confirm something, other than that its hours upon hours of reading and searching. sadly people nowadays want the answers to things without doing the work and without understanding how their own product works. So people get to know the product you own it will pay in the long run. Sadly that's the world we live in where people would rather ask instead of doing a little bit of work.

When I first got into mountain biking, I didn't realize how many sizes I needed to know. I made a lot of mistakes, and this video would have saved me tons of $$, time, and frustration.

this is all good info, and i support folks wanting to learn home mechanic skills, but sooner or later you'll learn the hard lesson that when in doubt, your local bike shop knows best.

This was the perfect video for me, trying to replace my rear hub that went bad 😵‍💫 nice to know HG is more universal than I thought.

I quit MTBing in 2006 after knocking my front teeth out and quit road biking in mid 2010 because I wanted to see what I could do as a runner...well in 2022 I decided to get back into MTB, and wow is a different world! Liking these videos though, because many times they answer questions I didn't know I had!

love the video and love the solution - maybe you should send your video to the manufacturers and maybe your videos will help businesses understand how a normal person thinks and looks at a bike. Great job as always.

I'm so glad you made this video. I always cringe a little when I see somebody ask you parts compatibility questions in the comments, because (1) I know you won't have time to answer it, even if they did provide enough details for you to answer it definitively and (2) if somebody is going to work on their bike, they need to learn how to answer these questions for themselves.
