If your baby runs low on oil, can you use brake fluid in a pinch.

I think a good hack is that if your eating hard shell tacos they always crack so what I do is I put refried beans on the outside and a soft shell over that the refried beans act as glue and your taco becomes quieter so when I eat tacos at 2 am I don’t wake anyone up also no food comes out of the cracked taco

Adding a couple drops of soap or any other surfactant to your water while cutting carbon will minimize the possibility of airborne fibers. Pro tip from the asbestos world.

MAKE SURE THE CAR SOAP DOESNT HAVE WAX IN IT. Learned the hard way....

If you have shit wire cutters, and you cutting cables, just tape the part you want to cut with electrical tape, then cut on the electriCal tape so it wont fray the cable

I know a guy that runs baby oil in 5 of his bikes with no issues. At $70/L for the real stuff it's a no brainer.

2 main problems with baby oil is it's the wrong weight oil, and it gets thicker as it gets cold, never used it in my MTB but my wifes last ktm 200 which has magura hydraulic clutch came with it in the system, when cold the clutch was nearly unusable, I've heard fellow mtbikers try baby oil in their brakes say the brakes get sluggish in the cold and change feel. Mind you this is south of 20f.

Thank you so much for making these videos, also can you make a check up on all your bikes ? Like if you want that

[MichaGajek]

Seth I feel like you should finally tell us YOUR story :) How did all this began? Your first bike, first BMX experiences (?) and how did you got into mountain biking. I've been following your channel since the very beginning and seen all the videos I believe, there were some past clips cut here and there but really you should consider the comprehensive video on your story :) I'm sure this will be highly inspirational! Cheers!

Here's a hack I haven't seen yet that I use quite a bit. When out filming, I use my GoPro Chesty and wrap it around trees and such which can be adjusted low down or up high for interesting camera angles and of course you have further adjustments you can make by tilting the camera in the mount. I find this a very useful way to film in the 3rd person.
