I have disk brakes but finding a decent price tag on a bike with disk brakes alone is expensive af definitely with aluminum bodies like mine. I grew up riding bikes before disk brakes and there is literally no issues with V brakes! Bike companies didn’t make them for decades if they were so terrible! 😂
Just to make sure, as it was never mentioned - you have Tektro calipers (4 piston? 2?) and Tektro brake hose. And you attach Shimano levers instead of Tektro (2 piston model?) This is exactly what I'd like to do on my Giant Trance. The Tektro hose is bigger (both OD and ID) - did you use Tektro barb and olive or Shimano ones? Many thanks!
Hey @MTBalex do you know the bottom bracket size on this Schwinn Axum comp x?
This bike is really meant for commuting on a flat, smooth surface. That is where you will get the best results.
Picked up spare tire and Jack at the you pull it salvage yard $30 total Look for a 2003 to 2015 Nissan Marano for the tire and jack
Having a cheap bike is better than not having a bike. Unless a person is actually mountain biking on a trail or in a race, these bikes are okay for commuting and riding on a green belt or riding around town but the buyer should make sure the bike was correctly assembled by the store. It's a good idea to have a bike shop check out the bike.
Alex deberías de hacer videos en español también para nosotros los latinos
This guy has no idea what he's talking about. I lived in Banff for 15 years and rode my bike, with v-brakes, on some of the most technical single track and downhill lines for YEARS without any problems. After 20 years Im still riding them.
Vale la pena hacerle mejoras a una schwinn 27.5 ??
Just stay away from bikes, buy a motorcycle instead 🙏
For the budget ppl in the comments, just go used if you dont have the money...
If you just riding your bike in your city and sometimes do some fun stuff with it any bike will do, but if you wanna do something series you should either buy a road bike, if you also do some outta town roads you need a gravel bike, if you wanna go do cycling in the jungle and mountain a hardtail mountain bike is sufficient, and if you really wanna go and try some rough terrain which is a bit serious a trial bike is what you need and at the end if you wanna do some touring going town to town or go to another state of province you need a touring bike, and at the end if you wanna go for world touring you need a very reliable touring bike, but you can also do all of that with and cross country bike or mountain bike, but if you don't go to dirt roads and rough train and only thing you care is speed then the areo race bike is for you ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
magic maya is another one
Worthless video!!
Hi did you use the spacers thanks
At least if it's a steel bike you can adjust the dropouts in case they did a crapout job with alignment which is common in Walmart bikes
Buy them and give to the kids in your neighborhood
The music is kind of loud at times. It interferes with your spoken audio. Great video though.
Nice video, thanks. I have the Redwood as well and noticed the shavings inside the seat tube looking down into BB area. LOTS of alloy shavings -more than what you even show. Hopefully they have cleaned up their processes by now. They are a pretty good bike company and i imagine they are competing with guys like Priority that are building really good bikes at similar pricepoint.
Timetry TT257 👍
Think you missed the biggest problem is grip shifters. V brakes are perfectly fine
It funny we gonspen $3000 on bike but for The high-end component. So why can't we buy a cheap frame? Input high end components on Humm
I started on a toys r us bike years ago. Then I bought better bikes after. Last bike I bought was. Trek Marlin 6 Gen2.. For my type of riding that's all I need and. I do ride some crazy lines. Upgraded tires, grips, seat, pedals, and fork. Next, I'm looking into an ebike. The Aventon Ramblas looks good. Nothing wrong with these bikes. Buy what you can/want, and enjoy the ride.
Perfect! So helpful
Disculpe es cuadro xl? mido 1.91(6'3") y me gustaría un cuadro grande
Hola,se le puede poner llantas 29x 2.25?
Good to know I bought one and Im happy. Thank you for the review.
Lol. Hardly the place to be giving advice on MTBs
I hate v brakes. They snap so easily. 😂 Don't do anything crazy ok. Just casual ride and v brakes will be just fine ✌️
Amigo, tengo la misma para mi hija, tiene 8 actualmente, entonces la horquilla es recta? Siempre pense que era cónica por la forma, lei que se puede poner una 26? Es correcto? No afecta en algo?
We have the 2022 Outlander Black Edition.... I have tried 3 times to get this fixed and they keep saying the SUV is fine but it's not. I have ideas to fix it myself. I will let you know, I am kind of done. I took mine in to again get this looked at and to get my oil changed and tires rotated and balanced... They did nothing to the hood and charged me $84.99 for the oil change, $49.99 for the rotation and balance, plus taxes and fees.... I'm not going back unless I have to.
Mine sadly the bearing just got destroyed they where the stock ones from factory by any chance do you know the specs of the hearing like how many balls it has and the size of it
Buy none, just buy it online
Are you an expert
Nothing wrong with v breaks
My dad said that these 200 dollar bikes so cheap that when its breaks he just gets me a new one 😂
You pushed the limits in the range. My eBike says it will go 50-60 miles. The most I’ve done on it (one of the three times I’ve ridden it) was maybe 36 miles. I would not push against that 50-60 mile range.
Does it interfere with the kick feature to open the back hatch?
Did you have any trouble with the hood closing with the new grill?
I just did mine and it works perfectly fine
Nothing beats a department store klunker for commuting. Dudes just naming off parts like you can't ride without disk brakes, has no idea why Walmart bikes dont make good MTBs
NICE!!!
V-brakes are as powerful as 160mm mechanical disc brakes, however disc brakes work better in all weather but they have brake pads that can cover that base as well, if you're doing steep downhill mountain bike riding, hydraulic disc brakes is a good choice, but everything else is accurate 👌
Top of the range, second hand is a guide
V brakes is better that mechanical disc brakes
Is it possible to put the older style grille on a newer truck? I know it will not work with the bumper but I want to do hd bumper swap so I need the older grille

Don't buy a Walmart anything
Man whatever you say growing up in the hood every bike could do everything with breaking we used to build ramps for any bike don’t listen to bra unless you can’t make your own decisions
There's essentially nothing wrong with quill stems, they were on the best bikes not all that long ago. Nowadays yes they're used mostly on the cheapest bikes, so hard to find a replacement if you want to replace it. But it will work fine.
All bikes had v brakes and threaded head sets at one point and people set records one em too shit njs bikes are steel like that
