The gears on my ORBEA rise are Gx and making horrendous noise in all gears ⚙️ exercises 4th , is this fixable?
The absolute best video on youtube that covers this subject. Somehow everyone else including the big channels like park tools manages to make it seem more complicated than it needs to be.
I can not express how helpful this video is and how much of frustration it takes out from the transmission adjustments process. Let the Gods bless you, Sir, you have added 3 more speeds to my Cannondale Topstone Carbon 4 and you’ve earned yourself a lifetime fan! Thank you SO MUCH!
Before watching this I felt that derailleur adjustment was like neuro surgery. Now I'm confident I can do this to my own bike. THANKS!

By far the best video out there on adjusting the rear derailleur. Thanks!
I have never been able to do this (silly as it sounds ) been MTB for over 15 years! This is by far the most Easiest and fully Comprehensive Tutorial on YOU TUBE , Thank you my Friend 🙏
seen a dozen of rear adjustment here on youtube and this one is by far the most easy to comprehend from a newbie point of view! well done @buycycle...thanks! and subscribed done!
Without a doubt the single best video on getting a rear derailleur set up properly! Just got a new bike and was struggling with bad shifting on my first ride. Managed to get it running perfectly in less than 10 minutes while watching this! Unreal video, thanks a lot for putting this out there!
YES!!!.. Someone that eliminates the tension In the cable first, before adjusting the higher/lower limit screw... There's a few videos that doesn't tell you to take tension out of the cable first..... Park tool video is just as good.

Thank you so much - it finally clicked for me when I watched your video. Those simple graphics summarizing "turn clockwise to decrease the tension and move the jockey wheel right" is what I needed!
perfectly explained and it is truly the best video on describing how to adjust the rear derailleur! Thank you!
This is simple and straight to the point. No time waisting with so much introduction . Excellent video
I am a new cyclist and this literally enabled me to do it myself. Perfect video with the correct angles and explanation.
Good lord this video was an absolute dream. Well done! Very well filmed and explained. 10/10

Thanks. Now, for the first time ever, I feel confident to try.
I love PT’s Calvin but this guy explained it better and more concisely than the PT guys or anyone else. I hope he does more lessons. Hes got the talent and the brains to make it digestible.
Definitely the best video on KZread for the rear dérailleur adjustment

this was perfect! thank you so much all the other videos were driving me insane bc they did not work and left out so many small details which were mentioned here!!!
After watching this, it all made better sense. Thanks so much
I managed to fix my bike..This video is spot on.Very easy to follow
Amazing video, man. People sure know how to make this sound complicated in others. 🤣 You did an excellent job explaining this for us weekend warriors. 🤙
I just adjusted my rear derailleur by watching your video and saved myself cash! Excellent video. I will be saving this one to my favorites for later! Great content, Thankyou!!
Outstanding tutorial-well-defined steps with actions that are clearly explained. Sorted my commuter bike right out, now on to my son's MTB. Thank you!
Great explanation of the entire process!
Thank you for a great, clear and descriptive video. You're a legend!
Easily the best video iv'e seen to explain the dynamics of setting up the Rear Derailleur, concise, straight forward and clear, superb work sir.
I've watched quite a lot of videos on bike maintenance and I try to do everything on my own. I can honestly say that your video is hands down the best that I've seen of all the videos on adjusting and indexing rear derailleurs. All this time I've been looking for this one video on rear derailleurs that explains everything in a clear manner and with the right camera angles and I can tell you now this is the only video on this subject that I'll be coming back to every time I need to service my bikes. Well done and thank you sir.

Very clear explanation.👍👍
I have watch several ok videos on derailleur adjustment but they there were incomplete and fully useful. This video is much better than all that I have seen so far by a lot. The colored cogs and limiter info very good. The section that helped me a lot was taking off the cable and moving the derailleur by hand. That made understand more so I could isolate my issue. Thank you.
Best video i have seen for explaining how to index gears, so easy to understand and far better than gcn,parktool or any other cycling youtube channel.
Clear and well explained. Good job bro👍

You don't understand how much this helped me. I recently got a new cassette and I wasn't able to go into my highest and lowest gear, and had weird noises when peddling. But thanks to you I no longer have these problems

@@buycycle My derailleur only seems to want to move up and down. It doesn't shift when I move it. How do you move it side to side like that?
Great job buddy, clear and to the point! Going to give this a shot now!
best instruction video i ever see, many other videos explanation i see many times also dont understand.
Making it look easy! Thanks for the wonderful tutorial 🙂
I had to do it twice... but i did it!!!! SOOOOOO HAPPY. Thanks man. Really appreciated. It has always been my dream to service my own bike.
Yeah I was super anxious about doing a derailleur swap myself because in the past I got bad explanations about the workings of it and messed up my gears. With just this 8 minute video I have a brand new Shimano kid running perfectly. Thank you so much.
Many adjusting videos and I only got it right with this one lmao. Subscribed!

Great video - clearly explained at a good pace and with good camera shots. This helped me so much - thanks!
Never adjusted Derailleur before and was pretty clueless on how to do it so always paid the bike store to do it. Your video was not only easy to follow but worked perfectly and has saved me money, so many thanks indeed for taking the time to make it. Much appreciated.
This is just the best! First time in 70 years I understand this. Thanks!

This proves again that just because you know what you are doing, you arent necessarily good at communicating that knowledge. I've tried fixing my gearbox thingy for the past 2 days and every "explainer" video I watched somehow made it worse and left me more insecure about what to do or how to do it. this was the first and only video in the astonishing sea of videos on this topic that left me fully informed and finally able to fix my bike. Thanks. The closeup shots and graphical elements where especially useful to me in finally understanding what each screw does and how to adjust them properly.

Awesome. Had a problem with ghost shifting, turned out to be my tension was off. Thanks man.
thank you. my bike wouldn't go into the high cog in rear. I disconnected cable like you said to check for limit, but it turns out I had the cable a lil too tight, so kept it from going to smallest cog.
Most clear, well explained, and to the point video I've seen so far.
