Great video! It helped a lot. Routing the cable through the frame was tough because it doesn’t have a channel through the frame. I had to grab a wire clothing hanger and make a hook to fish it out. It was bit dark and the flashlight only worked so much. But it took me 5 mins to fish it out of the frame. The rest is history. Thank you sir for the tutorial. It helped me a lot!

Thank you! I’m glad it is helping people. The shop where I made that video is gone now so it’s cool to see my old work space whenever I watch this!

@@ark6959 Just one question, how much hydraulic fluid do I need to pump into the drop post when I bleed it? Just enough til the bubbles (air) are gone from the system?

@ark6959

@@Mtb-TrailTime Yes, once the air bubbles are all gone, the system will only allow so much oil in and the rest will come out when you remove the bleed tool.

Hello mate. I've been wondering how to take the ends off my "only used for one ride" new secondhand dropper seat post tube all afternoon. Not only have you got the music volume in your video bang on, your information has been mega helpful for me too. Thank you very much for posting 🤙👌👍

Nice video, thank you! One question I have is about carbon grease. It appears you put the post in dry, is this correct and if so do you have an issue with carbon grease?

@ark6959

Ай бұрын

Thank you! Yes I did install that post with no carbon grease. When I worked for that company, we would build and test ride the bike before disassembling it and shipping it out. Since we did not know the exact seat height that the end user was going to have, we did not want to risk scuffing the post. All it takes is one angry customer who demands a “fresh” post because his new post was scuffed up for a new procedure to be implemented, haha! Personally, I use regular grease unless there are slipping issues with the frame/post interface, then I go for the carbon paste. Great job noticing that little detail!

Help Please!!!! I had my Devinci Troy upside down while building and waiting for my stand, It has Reverb and now that it is right side up it will not drop. Any help will be appreciated.

Sounds like there is air in the system and the hydraulic line needs a full bleed. Good luck!

Currently bought a used reverb stealth C1 and the hose was too short. Just wanted to ask if the threaded barb fitting is reusable or do you need a new one?

@ark6959

3 ай бұрын

Totally reusable! Just make sure that there is a nice clean cut on the hose when you fit it to your bike and make sure to tighten that barb with a torx t-10. Thanks for checking out the video👍🏻

I'm 167cm (5'6) and my gravel bike geometry gives me only 11cm exposed seatpost. Can I install a 50mm or maybe 75mm on my bike? I wonder how long it's needed for the other bits taking up space.

It really depends on the frame and type of post you use. Maybe a local shop can help? Cheers

Sounds like you need to make sure those torx t-10 threaded barbs on the hydro line are fully tightened and then re-bleed the line just like I do in the video. Good luck!

why did you bleeded it out twice?

Can you please make the music a bit louder, I came here for heavy metal music, not a how-to video!

Sure would be nice if we could see through your hands so we could actually see what you're doing.

Yeah. Like I said, it was a poorly staged video. Definitely needed a tripod and a camera instead of an iPad propped up on a chair. If I do more videos like this, I will definitely do a better set up.
