Doddy's back with another episode of Ask GMBN Tech! Have you got some burning MTB questions for our walking mountain biking encyclopedia? Make sure you leave them in the comments below using the hashtag #AskGMBNTech and your question could feature in an upcoming show!
⏰ Time Stamps ????
00:00 - Start
00:32 - can you use a hookless rim for a tubeless conversion or do you need hooked rims?
02:09 - Can I use automotive brake cleaners and grease on my bikes?
04:15 - Is that a model of an Audi Quattro Group B Rally Car in the background?
05:58 - With lots of cheap components out in the market, sometimes more than half of the price of famous brands. What components can you recommend for any budget bikers that want to get into
riding but afraid to spend big bucks?
13:41 - I have new wheels with 12speed cassette and reassembled everything. But now when the bike is freewheeling or backpedalling I hear a high pitched squeal over the nice 36T ratchet sound?
15:11 - In the climbing gear, the chain is far from straight which causes noise and more resistance.
19:32 - Does having a steeper seat tube angle have any drawbacks when riding downhill. Do bikes descend better with slacker seat tube angles?
21:10 - How much difference does a dirty drivetrain make?
