Do you guys sell the parts by any chance

angelbeats3333 says:

Thank you! Now I know what I’m doing finally 

Sam K says:

Red reflector on the front ? hmm, I would try that but I wouldn’t know if I
was coming or going :P

wolfieziggy19 says:

I glad this guy is not giving instructions on how to fly a plane…

wolfieziggy19 says:

I guess expertvillage implies that everyone watching is an expert…slow it
down a notch so us non-experts can follow along. 

Chris Nelvin says:

Do one for shimano ultegra brakes please.

Denise smith says:

Thats was nice and straightforward thanks. 

Michael Reyes says:

Yes “somehow” helps me so much!

Lao Tzu says:

Yay bike collectives!

TheReminator98 says:

@Ozarkarms they have to, they ride them all the time

David Mejia says:

@ubersteigen If you want to remove the grips try adding water on the grips.
This should make it easier. Or you can add Wd-40 but make sure to wash them
once they are off.

TheGmodProductions says:

@PARABOLOUS agreeded

flipwiggins says:

Do you ever apply any type of lube to the inner housing or cable?

meatloaf505 says:

alright since this was no help, what do i do if the metal part of the
housing keeps popping out of my barrel adjuster, just slidding it up doesnt
work. any ideas would be appreciated

PARABOLOUS says:

@TheGmodProductions Soooo you should probably just kill yourself.

Ozarkarms says:

Mormons know a thing or two about bikes.

smonk31085 says:

There’s actually another video, by a different guy (not expert village) who
does the same thing really slow with close-ups. I used both of them and it
works great. I forget the video title, but just google bike brake repair
and you’ll find it

kayson4 says:

that cheap…..

BusSki says:

Dear Russ, Your quoting the name of the next video, “adjusting the brakes”
is not clear enough, because there are many other videos with that name or
that name plus something. . Could you fix it so going to the continuation
of your first video, is foolproof; if I were not a fool, I would not need
to look-up the information I need about my broken brake cable. . My brakes
are a pad that I have to squeeze the handle hard as it pushes onto the
wheel. . Cheers. from, del-boy.

Henryk Hnatow says:

Very easy thank you

happywombatproducts says:

@ubersteigen there is a little alan wrench screw under neath somewhere haha
i learned that after breaking mine off haha

kayson4 says:

cool, I’ll bring mine sometime in the week the to fix thx anyway…

rezanaghibi says:

My brakes are nothing like that 1_1 the front brake cable runs down to a Y
that feeds the one cable into two, one for each brake pad.. What do I do?

sony jjfadfaf says:

@MaDFuCker61 2 minutes isnt even alot

invadingnimrod says:

@vakaholic O_O

Mr Spewkey says:

Why next video? If expert village done one long video instead of thirty 1
minute videos, it would be tolerable. I hate expert village.

Mary Jane Bulahan says:

that’s very efficient, thank you so much

zoe26 says:

It would be helpful if you could show the pieces and then what end the
cable goes into the pieces and how to put the clip in etc., you just go too
fast and don’t show enough detail.

nick egedy says:

im making a minibike, and theres no vids on how to fix the carb wires… i
have to look here to fucking get it. i type in how to fix lose throttle
cables and nothing shows up xD.

Schweí Übersteigen says:

I need to change the hand-breaks themselves.. The problem is, I can’t seem
to remove the rubber handlebar-grips (with the speed controls) to slide on
the new hand-break mechanisms.. can anyone help?

Aiobh6 says:

Faster! Faster!! FASTER!!!!!!!11!!!

Jordan Wasserman says:

damnit you mother fuckers make a video on how to put handle brakes on the
damn handle bars

GGGustafsson says:

this video moves to fast 🙁

Jamie S says:

This is exactly what I needed to finish my bike assembly. I honestly had no
idea what I was doing, but Russ cleared it up for me. I hope my husband can
stop (I am practicing on his bike). I will let you know how it works out.

escapeclaus says:

Maybe show road brakes as well? I am trying to get the cable out of my
old-style Gran Compe levers and can not figure out how to remove the old
cable. Also, be more thorough and go slower.

Pedros Pedroski says:

It’s cool. Why so many negatives? Thanks Man!

Oojimballa says:

i just did mine on my bmx for $7.50

François Auerbach says:

That was useful! Helped me get started and fix my bad brake. I am so
pleased with myself and grateful to you for the video.

Leok450 says:

Wtf! Seriously why cant I find a tutorial or video oin how to fix/replace
the brake cable on a disc brake. What happened with me is that where the
brake lever is, the thick rubber cover sliped off from the cable, so now my
lever flops around and my rear disc doesnt work. =(

TheMichael408 says:

@TheGmodProductions expert village sucks all of the shit you said above

flipwiggins says:

@TheGmodProductions Looks like somebody forgot to take their meds
today…..ooooohhhh, damn!

IC3DP1X3L says:

THAT EASY… soo… i have to disable everything again T_T

Laffy Taffy says:

God expert village is fucking garbage i hope everyone who’s ever been in an
expert village video dies in a fire.

lamborghinigallarodo says:

i did mine for $ 2.11

TheGmodProductions says:

@flipwiggins XDDDDDDDDDDD

Oojimballa says:

$10 depeneds on the cable

MaDFuCker61 says:

This video is a Crap waste of 2 minutes of your life…

FallenStar117 says:

cable? i dont need the whole brake set?
