Thanks! That was useful.
Great review thank u
This one Not for me - your upload helped me to decide
Respect
Is it ok to install on bmx bike or let say easy rider bike?
Just buyed, mounted, tried and trhrown in garbage. When the rear of the saddle goes down, the tip of the saddle hits you in the balls. I tried to mount it in the opposite direction and... when the tip goes down you get a kick in the ass. a shock absorber can't help. 20 euros lost! 😡
my brother had one of these brake on him, pretty dangerous. I want to use one for a sled but am nervous. Have you put it through the ringer? Can say it works longer term?
Currently unavailable on Amazon but was selling for between $69 and $100 with LEDs. on the end. Funnily enough, there's an Amazon paperweight advertised with it which seems apt, considering the comments about this device breaking. This spring looks exorbitantly priced for something that could potentially be life threatening if/when it fails. There are $20 versions on eBay if anyone prefers a cheaper risk. I went for the Suntour SPX 12 suspension seat post as YouTube /eBay reviews were favourable and prices varied due to British Heart Foundation releasing a load, either batched or individual, at greatly reduced prices. Noticed for $100 you could definitely purchase a Cane Creek seat post possibly New or New other, second hand on eBay. $100 seems a stiff price for a piece of metal bent in 3 places and 2 LEDs added is all.
Max weight says 330 lbs. I am 245 and TWO of them snapped and broke in just a few months !! Won’t try a 3rd.
This looks scary
I am a 270 lb man with bad tailbone issues. In your opinion would this spring help my lower back as I'm riding my bike.?
It’s a TERRIBLE idea! Way too much movement in the saddle. You want the transfer of power from you hips to lower legs to the pedals to be firm! You actually have LESS control of your bike especially in downhill situations. In a downhill situation you may need to get off the saddle and get your rear end back and this contraption would force the seat up and actually get in the way. Bad idea!
Hey bro what one would you recommend so??
Seats with springs are suited for cruiser type bikes. My default bicycle is a Dutch style commuter bike, and a schwinn stingray. Both are cruiser type bikes. When I rode my friends MTB with a stiff saddle to school my butt was sore, so I definitely prefer seats with springs
Thank you. Saw this on Instagram and I’m glad you saved my cash.
That's a great concept and all, but... because of the way it's got to be set up, as in, the seat's got to be angled like that before you even get on it. Then whenever you pedal, the weight shifts around a bit, so naturally it's gonna bounce. Unlike with the coil spring seat variation. Cheers for showing how it works while you were riding it, helps a lot to see how it really functions 👍😉
2 years of design? China: CTRL +C, CTRL+V
Nice frame,my spare frame is the same only it says Mongoose,they're all Falcon cycle frames usually made in South Korea.
after seeing this, I think I would get a larger padding seat, than a bouncing seat..
I brought something like that for $10 China made and it's so good.
Why would u use a 2 by 4 instead of a tape measure??
supports all terrain more than 100 kilograms
Can u switch poles to a smaller one?
The spoke popped out of the right side and I can't pop it back on.
Something I can't find how do you put the saddle the top of the seat back on it's 2 spokes?
how long is your old and new seatpost?
how long is your old and new seatpost?
Fucking idiot.
Is there a way to take out the metal bracket mounted under the seat itself?
you mean 2.2cm.
22.0 centimetres is about 8 inches. I think he meant 22 millimetres
thank you
dude your audio is wacked
Thanks. Very helpful video! Is there another way to get an accurate measurement of the seat post diameter if you don't have that fancy tool?
what if you want to set up a new seat post without replacing the saddle
22 millimeters.
he's a fail lol
Well you wouldn't wipe it all over your face now would you?
Absolutely correct! I'm sure it's a great video, but I can't hear a word you are saying, with every volume control I have turned up to the max!
Thanks
Lubricant lmao
thank you
What size of seatpost 26 frame anyone?
Ano idol ang tamang size ng seatpost sa seat tube?
Nagtesting ako ng seatpost na 31.6, hindi pumasok, masikip,
Pero nag testing ako ng seatpost na 28.6, maluwag naman,
Ano pa ba ibang diameter size ng seatpost?
Hello park tool.
Can I ask what size of seat post I need for my 28.1 seat tube.?
Nice video and tips. 👌. Can i used 30.8mm seatpost for my seat tube which is for 30.9... Is there any issues using it? Thanks.
Confusing. Can you make it simpler? If I am buying a shock absorbing seat post online, do I go with the seat post size or seat post collar size? Why are there multiple size options for the same post? Online merchants don't mention if the size is for the post opening or the collar.
So im measuring a 26mm on the bike. Do I find a 26mm seat tube or like a 25.9 or something?
Is a 31.8 seat clamp allen type is the same with 31.8 seat clamp quick release type?
it's not dc1 or some digital caliper and shit. It's called Vernier caliper.
Thank you so very much
Is this the same method I use to find a seatpost clamp? I'm trying to find a more secure seatpost clamp the one you screw it without the clamp part so someone can't steal my seat. I measured the diameter of my seatpost to 14mm. Can someone help me with locating one?
i have a 27.5 mtb is 27.2 seatpost ok ?
Heyy hello!
What seatpost i use for my bike?
Is there a 24.0 layback seat post?
@4:07 "just right" – is that just right? In my experience, if it slides in that easy it's probably too small(?) and would require overtightening the clamp. May different on a new frame versus one that might have some rust, etc. inside the seat tube. I usually expect some amount of resistance to slide in the proper size – is this wrong?
I had to audibly give out to Truman when he started dropping those seatposts – there are few things louder than a seat dropping, especially hitting other seatposts.
I bought the DC-1 recently, it’s perfect for measuring ID & OD of seatposts, stems, head tube, bolts, handlebars, fork widths.
That's not an effective nor very accurate way to measure a seat tube. The most reliable is with one of two sizes of J.A. Stein sizing rod, which goes down further into the bore of the tube, away from malformations around the top. However, $$$. The most cost-effective/accurate method is with a machinist's sprung bore gauge, which will measure at different radii, at different depths, Then you can get a nominal value on the 'Very-Near' caliper (or you could use a micrometer) . & what about out-of-round or burred tubes that will jam seatposts and score them?
Also, digital calipers are for noobs. They run out of batteries and break a lot more frequently than you would think. Learn to read a proper vernier, or if your eyesight is bad, like mine, use a dial caliper.
I set mine up on a CMM just to make sure.
Come on Park tool... rly? are fking serious? who doesn know how to use caliper... thats pre, pre, pre elementary knowladge...
Wonderful. Thanks for this video. Very helpful.
Great video mate
Great video!
Thank you for this!
My saddle is type 3 but there are no grooves as you have shown. It's very difficult to adjust the nose level as it can be moved front n back only. Any tips on that?
Thank you pro
3:16 Thank you 🤩
I only like videos usually to "mark them" so that I can see them later. This video I liked because I found so helpful. Thank you very much.
Thank you for this video, my wife's bike is an old school bike with the saddle from the 3:16 video. I thought that i needed to buy for her a new sit post, as it is an old school version. Now i know.
Thank you, I thought I can't adjust my saddle.
The actual how-to tilt your seat, I spend like one week looking for this ! Thank you !
Outstanding how-to video! Saved me tons of time.
Great video! Thanks.
Doesnt matter. If your doing it right you dont sit down. Sitting is for old ladies
my seatpost is number 3 example i weight 55 kg and when i do trail bike my saddle lose posistion when it recevied force. i used MTB. can some one help me? 😢
Thrash metal and saddles. Thats a crossover I never expected.
4:53 Thumb screw. Or something like that.
Excellent vid, no one else has explained this stuff that i have seen (that i get to see with MTB interests on YT). Also as someone that appreciates good tools (Not branded expensive ones) thats a lovely allen/hex key.
Thank you - great review.
I'm here because my bike seat hurts my balls.
Is there a name for #3?
Saved my ass, literally
