    I love that you covered different kinds of wheels and breaks, and were also really thorough about your explanation. I'm a total bike newbie, so this was really helpful.

    Thank you so much!! I just bought my daughter a bicycle and the instructions were horrible on how to put the front tire on getting it past the disc brake 🤦🏼‍♀️ praise God for CZcams videos!

    Super helpful. Too many people never show a close up of getting the brakes off, so I've never been able to figure it out. Thanks!

    I'm new to my old Giant Sedona and wanted to say thanks so much for this excellent tutorial. Rather than guess I took a gander and was lucky enough to find your vid. You couldn't have done a better job. That you covered a variety of bike types makes this just perfect. Thank you, sir, most kindly. It's fellas like you that make this world a better place for everyone.

    YOU ARE MY HERO and you saved me some embarrassment with the local bike shop. I had taken the wheel off a long time ago and could not get it back on right. After watching this, I did and I rode it. Yay! But my front breaks need a little adjustment so on to the next video. Than you so much! ❤️
