Where I live you need to add body armor to your kit.

wow what is wrong with you? Safety first, shame on you for not treating your dog with respect!

Is that a fixie? So much easier

Man, Zach went from the cool teen to the dad bike guy. So wholesome this channel has been. Good shit. And no derailleurs were damaged in the process too

Hi 👋🏼 pa review naman pa tungkol sa fixie setup sa fixie with freewheel at ano ang pinag ka iba ng breaking system nila hindi ko alam kung anong bagay sa akin na uri ng fixie setup salamat 🇵🇭

Sorry about you having to live in Sacramento...

The longevity of good double straps for cages vs fgfs straps straps would end up stretching after about 6 months of riding. Ive had my toshi straps with mks sylvan pedals for over 6 years no issues

Everyone rides their chain so sloppy! Tighten that shiz up! The biggest advantage of riding fixed is the direct connection you have with the road. Sloppy chains just muck this up. Worried about accelerated wear of your drivetrain? Start riding a derailleur bike 😂

Very fitting that you talked about remember how much fun they are with the laughter of children in the background 😊

Try adding some brakes in that thing.Maybe you' ll be safer.

I don't really understand this topic, the most important thing imo is your shoulder position but I never see it mentioned. If I have my drop handlebars on the highest portion of my Wabi (on top of 4 1cm spacers) then I can't reach the hoods while maintaining a neutral shoulder. If I bend at my hips more to reach the hoods then now my shoulder blade is retracted (squeezing together) and that will cause pain in a long ride. To fix this I'd have to run a really short stem or use a bar style that are swept back a bit. Or I can just move the stack down since I can comfortably bend lower. Simple visualization is to put your bike against a wall or ideally on a stand/trainer so its straight then sit on the saddle with your normal pelvic tilt and have your shoulder NEUTRAL and arms at 90 deg from your chest with a slight bend at the elbow. Then start to bend forward. Your handlebars should be anywhere on that arc you create bending forward until you hit your flexibility/comfort limit. This will allow you to hold the handlebars while maintaining a neutral shoulder position. If you physically can't adjust your bike to get a position (with different stem lengths and stack heights) that is comfortable then you probably bought the wrong bike for your body/flexibility

found this channel on a facebook marketplace ad for a used wabi thunder in my area. i own that bike now lol... so stoked!!

Congrats, Zach!

The tire pressure awareness totally changed my cycling. I didn’t think it would make that much difference, and I was wrong about that!

I commute everyday in a city that has no infrastructure for bikes. I’ve carved out the safest routes that I can take, ALWAYS wear a helmet, and day and night I’ve got the brightest blinking lights I could find running whenever I’m on the bike. I’m in Indiana now, and I’ve found living in CO, TN and KS as well, that as long as I’m hauling ass and not just lollygagging on down the road like I’m on the beach or something people tend to be pretty cool on the road. I’ll have to say that the two times I’ve been hit I was on a sidewalk crossing an intersection once and on an urban paved trail that came up to a large intersection the second. Not doing that again!

Somehow I just know the water treatment plant ride will go perfectly!

Google street view is also good for finding the best place to lock up your bike at your destination.

Zero. Because I am not a fekkit.

I should probably get a cooler helmet but my MTB one is so light/comfy I routinely walk inside and start using my computer with it on lol. My fixed gear is somewhat aggressive so it's not a complete mismatch in my eyes

Enter "snapped alluminum handlebar" to Google seach and check the images. Corroded alluminum parts snap as well and it happens often. My daily commuter bike has a handmade corme molly frame from the 90th and its an amazing bike and is fun to ride, but compared to my carbon roadbike it just feels soft and wobbly. BTW any carbonbike with breaks is 100 times saver than a fixie without breaks. 😜

Cambium is so much beter since switching to a nylon cover. I have a C19 on one bike for around 4 oe 5 years and it still appears same as new. The cotton top was a mistake. I'm surprised you think the leather was good for 5-10 years. I have two from the 1990 still on bikes. The only Brooks I don't have on bikes just aren't the right color.

As a fixed gear rider running with no brakes, the thought of my chain failing whenever Im going downhill will be something I cant take off my mind

When i do skid...my stem break🤦🤦🤦

I was a little stupid . I was a bike messenger in the late 90's. My bike broke down and I got a breakless fixie / track bike to replace the mountain bike. I had never ridden a track bike for more than a quick spin on a friend's. Think up the block and back. I took it out on the weekend then went to work on Monday. Young dumb and full of ____. Can't believe how dangerous that was rushing through traffic running lights with only two or three days experience riding a fixie / track bike. Things worked out for me, course I'd been riding regularly since I was 4 and messengering for 3 years. nothing much happened that I would blame on being brakeless. But it was thrilling. I can remember one day ducking through traffic cutting and skidding left and right, weaving, and through traffic, throwing my weight all around the frame to get the force needed to maneuver and hearing another messenger shout "Do that sh!t!" I used to look down on people that had a brake(s) on their bike, called them "fakies". 53 now and getting a new fixie / track bike and probably going to get a front brake cause my wife says I have to😥

At my university I was pampered by protected bike lanes, I could wear my airpods go helmetless and be chilling. But now I'm home in a city that has spots with painted bike lanes, no bike lanes, converted railroad trails, and the rare "protected bike lane" (it has the flimsy plastic/thin metal poles). Getting around on my bike has such a confusing paranoia-inducing struggle

Dope! I also have a fixed gear that's running 700x43c! It also have a removable brake studs. The frame is from the Philippines, it was a limited frame so it's not that well known! Congrats on your new bike!

Your intro brought me here and kept me here!!!

Can you make a video of tube review ?

You know yo stuff

I use both in the same bike, toe clips for my strong leg and straps in the other side of the pedals, only reason is to be able to start moving without the need to adjust my feet on the straps side, thing that impossible with toe clips in both sides.

I wear a GoPro on my helmet. It helps drivers see they could be recorded if they try anything dangerous. Shame I have to do this to get some sense of safety.

Zach I just got one of these. Should i be concerned about the weld quality of mine? czcams.com/users/shorts1KeCDpeo9KI

Hey bro, thank you so much for your videos! Ive been riding for about 10 years and I'm still learning a few things here and there from you.

Thanks for this vid

Is 48:13 good?

shred the frozen lake? 🤣

Just bought the SBC 4130. Man, what a POS! It looks like a 3rd grader welded this bike together. Should have gone with WABI. I wish I could upload upload pictures of this crap. I see better welds on Walmart bikes!

What about buying a alarm system for your bike

what do you think about trek t1 2010 edition?

Are Fabricbike good entry level fixed gear bikes or they are crap just made to look good? Im looking for my first fix bike and was wondering about FB but not sure if they are worth the money.

What's your opinion on the Regal Spectre?

BICYCLE KING OF KINGS TALKS TIRES. I am bicycle king of kings so you would ALL be required believe on faith get behind me. Marketing is very clever.. Cleverly corrupt if not just flat stupid as they can trick they customers 2b. 80% humans = demons. This is literal. They dont knowhathey are. Plasticines. Nephilem spirits hive mind cnputer controlled savant idiots placed in flesh with hadron collider they control yr manufacturing. DONT let thm snake u. Just as days of Noah. Comprende? Satans kids biblical tare race. He HATES bikes cuz they free energy. I bought cash 2 homes commuting on.... bikes. Bicylce king of kings version of reality = very simple I remember it well. Michelin Select 1987 or so hands down changed my life tire. Why? TPI. Ever ridden a REALLY good tubular?? SPEED. Roll resist it equated2 high TPI (thread per square inch) equates 2MASSIVE cmfort = free suspension and rolls i mean FAST & TRACTION CITY. No i mean GOOD suspension. As in delete Satans crap dually suspensions save u 3lbs. High TPI is less weight then more durable low TPI. Less is more. Knobbiez & tread: Dont wrk & never did. They4 30HP treadmill water wheels motocross bikes only. Mud DOESNT WRK.. ..&knobbies DONT HELP. BIKES ARE NOT FOR MUD OR VISCIOUS 28MPH SINGLE TRACK. PERIOD. They are point & shoot above a crawl or running speed device only 21mph or less. U dont need knobs as they slow u. Drammatically. Bikes: Strictly point &shoot beeline flight of th crow medium. Get it? As a rule. Listen rubber gets traction what more do u want. ...6" spikes??? Mt. Goat feet = slicks. Specifically DEFORMABLE slicks. If u go adding additives decrease traction slightly double life tire so what??? "Worth it." The tire shall be deformable. Highest TPI 180 or plus 2.00" 26" 500gram or less with couple puncture belts. ...Continental speed slicks. Knobs are slow???? Proof. Cant evn bleev i have 2say this. Knobs slow u way th &%@! down. I averaged 12mph slicks & 8 mph knobs fireroad 12 miles up TIME TRIAL BRUTAL STRAIGHT HARDPACK DRY DOWN 45 or plus degree steep assed sht. Knobbies & tread are 4customer appeal marketing. Knobs & tread love 2 carefully postion road debris puncture tires. Knobs are heavy. While th vulnerable valleys thin. Slicks = slippery armor when thorns& glass try2 find purchase & can't as easily. Slicks& highest TPI extreme as possible deformeable carcass it all equate 2less WEIGHT & dont tight a$$ your bike with iddy biddy itsy bitsy tires either. Go large diameter 2.00 or plus Mt. Bike tire. 32- 36 PSI is the optimum. Try it sometime. Conclusion Continemtal Contact speed type tire lightweight slick can flat blow thpants off any other tire& in fact tires CAN be engineered much lower roll resist ...then Conti Speed. Jump on that train let manufacactures know u want cmfy speed not a gimmick delusional tank with pressure so high it damage carcass h*ll to pump ruins pumps. One lasthing. E bikes: Shall be 21mph max speed only. Tires engineered4 32mph is only a bogus step backward. E bike should be 350 watt geared or 500 watt direct drive front only 36 watts ONLY 20 AH battery (8lbs) ideally... period kit bolted on top line pro Mt.

E bikes basics end all: How to Build Superiour E Bike Yourself: Do not purchase pot metal e bikes designed by Lucifers kids or recommended by housewives& reviews Amazon. 95% humans = I ride the 1st last e bike will ever have 2b built &will last u a lifetime. Step 1: GO LOOK@ YOUR NEW BIKE... Did u watch? FABIO URBAN RIDING ON Mt. Bike. U want STIFF DURABLE DESIGNED BY PROS Bike. Buy COMPETENT thoroughbred Mt. Bike 1st. $200 kit ebay 2nd. Thats it. Understand never ever 2buy a pre built proprietary parts factory snake oil business E Bike pot metal flexible e bike for 3k with horrific ergonomics & crippled gearing& lousy components rusty cheap bearings stretchy spokes & brakes that wasnt built 4world champions on insane single tracks. Never buy bizarre huge tires or little idiot wheels cost $300 2replace tires $40 weird 2lb tubes or proprietary snake oil parts u can never find replace. Parts u can never find anywhere. Stick2 COMMON PARTS. BIKE must be STRONG STIFF STIFF STIFF STRONG STRONG WHEELS. I have supported 450lbs where thrubber meats throad. I could feel my worldclass STIFF handlebars& entire thoroughbred frame flexing. Satans fancy e bikes would break in half in minutes as comparison what u see video below. Worlds best e bike? Is in my driveway. Do NOT SEARCH 4 an authority above me. Doesnt exist. Modern bikes look like they do bcuz of me as do all world hour records broke since Graehm Obree ergonomics pioneered by me. All Tour De France riders went 2 Dual Control levers 1989. Shimano NEVER built better to this day. My engineering is END ALL go watch my short E Bike tutorials end all how 2attach beattery or carry stuff etc. Very simple. Step1: Just purchase used top of thline dual suspension Mt. bike $500. Done. Step2: Bolt on DIRECT DRIVE 36v kit (stone reliable) or planetary 10-20 amp 36v battery. (I am 150lb. I get 35miles 16.5 ave. Speed or 70 miles 13mph.) Geared motor 8lbs can wearout 3 - 10,000 miles. Rear drive Ok but horrible 4changing flats lousy gearing. Bikes are 98% made 2POINT &SHOOT. After that turn once in a great while YOU DO NOT LIVE IN AN OBSTACLE COURSE there4 Front drive is probably preffered. Direct drive 22 lbs, but, goes 50,000 miles SUPER reliably. Done. Thats it. That is all. Bolt on $200 36v kit: 1. NOT 48v 2. NOT 72v ....kit 21mph max speed only. RE READ LAST SENTANCE. 21 MPH ONLY ONLY ONLY. Less is more MUCH more on COUNTLESS levels. BUY aero bars or long cowhorns (Origin 8) HANG... I SAID HANG.... NOT BOLT ON WITH METAL.. Hung with flexy nylon straps in TENSILE.m a FLAT PLATFORM front of bike like world leader BIKE MESSENGERS do. Never supported on COMPRESSION metal bars like MESSENGERS that will vibrate like mad break. Hang: Wirh elastic shock absorb 2" nylon straps..a basket or simple steel grate welded wire platform made of wire just above front wheel is best front 4groceries. U can use AERO BARS 2hang that basket. DO NOT BUY 1of Satans front baskets. Place battery in frame/above top tube best centrally or simply in basket strapped with velcro straps against CLOSE2 handlebar. Battery low on frame is better, sure, but requires tooling& advanced skill. Your e bike is done ready2 ride. Make sure use WIDE strong handlebar with bar ends USED BY PROFFESSIONALS ONLY. NOT AMAZON POT METAL BARS. U must have wide bar leverage steer heavy front end. U MUST MUST have wide bar for triangling your arms FOR STABILITY WIDEST TRIANGLE. YOU MUST MUST MUST LOWER LOWER LOWER SEAT all the way. You will get much less wind drag MUCH LOWER CENTER GRAVITY STABLE HANDLING & PREVENT FLIPPING OVER FRONT OF BARS (When braking downhills heavy items front.) Yes u CAN PEDAL BENT KNEES. MAKE yrself ALWAYS PEDAL on E Bike "save gas." It cost 5 pennies charge e bike. I go 40 to 70 miles 12 to 16mph ave. Speed. You can now carry 2 5gallon buckets bar ends or4 2 x 4 resting bars strapped 2waist. You WILL NEED. To carry long things/more things on occassion. hence WIDE BARS. I carry gallon milk each bar end. Or buckets filled with light items, bread. 70lbs battery/groceries front basket max. (Or u can flip forward when braking or downhill breaking.) I easily carry 50lb corn, even 100lb corn basket not counting 15lb battery. But u must be very careful experienced rider 2do that. I have carried 30 tons in 11 days with this bike. Using a trailer SINGLE WHEEL 20" WHEEL TRAILER ONLY NEVER 2 WHEEL. I destroyed 2 pot metal cheap trailers doing it & shred back tire but u WONT do that on Satans garbage pot metal bikes. Use E bike rated tires. These dual suspension Pro bikes designed 2do 5 ft. cliff drops all day. Comprende? Get this: They weight 21lbs! BIKE MUST BE STRONG STRONG STRONG WHEN CARRY WEIGHT.
