  1. You need a steel frame (like this Crust) to do the step-up, without potentially killing the chain-stay 🧐 – On repeat, it feels like we're in church (O-M-G!, etc.😅)

  2. I had a guy come in my shop right as I was throwing a mallet to an 8mm hex bit to unjam his quill stem. The look on his face… it's why I'm a mechanic…

    Edit: Did you use zipties and the other person's hand to stabilize the other side?

  3. Bruh that might be his bike and I’m a mechanic I do this to my own bikes all the time I can jump off huge jumps and I can’t stand on the chain stay nah I ain’t buying that 😂😂😂😂

  4. Maybe it is the wood worker/machanic/construction worker in my but I have some nice powerful hand tools and if I can't get it off without breaking my knuckles I'll just grab the impact and zip that right off. We are not cave men and have battery powered tools to help. Work smarter and faster not harder and slower.

  5. It shouldn’t b that tight in the first place. When i was younger n b4 i knew i would over tighten everything. I was famous as a kid stripping axle nuts or breaking the wedge bolt on 1” stems.

  6. I just pull out the pursueder (a length of steel pipe) to use for leverage.

    As far as being watched:
