How to Replace Tubeless Rim Tape
I had an OTB incident on memorial day and ended up fracturing my left thumb and getting a partial tear on some ligaments in my left hand. Since then it's been a long road to recovery but I am just thankful that I will not have to have surgery. Over the next 2 months or so I will be healing up and getting ready for some major changes to the channel. I will be back full force in the near future. For this video; it's a how to for changing your rim tape for your tubeless tire set-up on your bike. Thanks for watching!

    Ehm ... you advised to clean the calipers/pistons in the caliper with oil. And you didnt advise to clean the calipers and the pistons with a brake cleaner afterwards. I'd correct that part if i were you. The oil part is completely unneccessary and life/limb/bone-dangerous. Just use a proper, inexpensive brake cleaner.

    They make some really awesome and not much more expensive than regular C clip pliers that ratchet down and make it so you don't have to hold the tension on them when installing you just squeeze it down and it holds itself. Getting the back of the clip started first then working to the ends of the clip also helps. Another trick is to use a socket that goes over the shaft and inside the tube and use it to tap the seal back enough to show the C clip groove fully. Just some tricks from a heavy equipment mechanic.

    Just found your channel, actually was looking for info to service the Rockshox 35 gold that came on my Giant Trance. I am a Giant fan (pun intended) I couldn't agree more about your views on Giant and the Trance models, they are wonderful bikes. I have a different model the Trance X 29 3 but had the two same issues. I broke the SX derailleur, very soon after purchasing it when a small twig broke the plastic ripping it off my bike, which I replaced with NX and have had no issues for a couple years now. The next weak points are the shock and fork since I have the lowest level 3 build. But I have ridden it with them for years and the bike is still very capable, local trail riding to Snowshoe bike park. My sons started with 2019 27.5 aluminum Trances and loved them. Sadly, they were stolen but we liked the Trances so much and they each got 2022 27.5 Trance X 1. Still aluminum but with upgraded suspensions, Fox 36 Grip2 160 and Fox Float X 145 shocks. The improved suspension makes the bike that was so good even better. Made me realize how bad my shock is and that at a minimum I need to see if I could improve it, anyway great channel keep posting, looks like you have a bunch of great videos I need to check out.

    The weirdest thing about that steel chainring is that mine rounded quite fast, I replaced it with a 7075 aluminium 30t goldix chinese chainring and it's still perfectly sharp with about double the distances on it. Steel shouldn't wear that fast 🤔 *I did clean the threads and put red locktite, when I removed the stock chainring it was the same as the GX cranks I have there's a drop on each screw. Idk if I did wrong or not we'll see next replacement 😅

      I researched into this. With some centerlock to 6 bolt rotors you are unable to use the adapter as the metal center flange is milled too thick so the bolts won't fully tighten to the rotor. Thanks for bringing it up for clarification. Also in some applications the rotor is too close to the fork leg and rubbing may occur between the brake caliper adapter and the rotor. More info if your interested on reddit forums.

    Great video, very enjoyable to watch! I just got a new bike, the AT2024, my first bike since getting back into biking. I went all out and got everything I wanted. However, it came with the Fit 4 Damper on the Fox 38s, 170mm LSR top and bottom, with the 3-switch compression (fully open, medium, and closed). It's quite stiff, but I've been riding shocks all my life until an accident, and to be honest, I'm very impressed with how the Fit 4 Damper is tuned! I will be looking to get the new X or X2 Damper at some point, though. I think it's good enough for what I need it to do right now! There's still a lot of adjustment in the Fit 4; it's quite impressive. My friend at the track has the Grip 2 Damper, and he's always getting that set up, same with the Float X. I might swap mine for an X2, but it's a brand-new bike. I've already gotten rid of the carbon bars and 50mm stem in favor of a 35mm Burgtec high-rise 38s. It feels a lot better! Already I think the low 25mm bars I was to far over the front on them feels made for the bikenthese burgtec bars so given these ago this summer and see what's next!
