The best bike assembly video I've ever seen. Love the tips on how to adjust the bike.

Very informative video. One thing you should mention is using grease or anti-sieze paste when assembling metal to metal parts, such as the pedals and seatpost. Otherwise, they can corrode and become almost impossible to remove later.

Just snagged the black version of this bike on sale for $241. Decided I'm gonna upgrade it instead of pulling the trigger on a Talon 1 or Fathom 2. Thanks for the how to video!

I just got a Schwinn Axum (black, non-dropper) ordered for $228 +tax. ROLLBACK sale right now at Walmart. I am stoked to check it out. Amazing for msrp of $400, but a steal for $228. It can sit next to my $5000 carbon Specialized Stumpjumper, and still look awesome. :) As a bike mechanic, I would say ALL bikes need to be checked properly unless coming from your reputable LBS, and still you need to adjust things to your spec. Seat height, saddle fore/aft, brake lever angle/ reach... etc. Good Vid, Man!!

Fantastic video! I followed it step by step for my Schwinn Axum. The front brake cable was wrapped up under the frame and I couldn't get the handlebars on. Thankfully your video showed me that they were installed incorectly. The tips you shared about the barrels on the brake handles and other things were helpful too - I learned quite a bit with your video!

Enjoyed watching the video. I am looking at the Axum from Walmart. But I loved seeing the MK2 in the background.

Love my Axum. Would have bought another but I wanted the second one in medium frame and those have been out of stock forever.
