I enjoyed this 5 part series. I'm glad to see Pedro's is putting energy into renovating or updating the tools. I always liked tools that are versatile and can cover multiple sizes (instead of being forced to own many separate tools). Thanks for your thorough reviews.
And now I finally get why all the clips from Napoleon Dynamite. I also like the part at the beginning where you are saying "wait, don't leave yet!" and your dog stops walking out, turns around and comes back in.
A great presentation Danielle - I'm sold (the crowd saw the guide and went wild! :) ). I have some huge Park Tool guide for the exotic-shaped... stuff, but this looks like a better option for the everyday stuff like seatposts, handlebars, and French bread loaves. :) Relja
I have a Parktool SG 7.2, it's a different design, it's metal, apart from the vise thing inside. It worked well, cuts were straight. It has two guide, one for carbon blade and one fot metla blade. A con of this tool is that it's very heavy and big. But the Pedro's you showed her is mich smaller, not as quick to work, but I don't swap between carbon. So I might have bought one. But I already got a tool so won't bother. But for travel having this one to reduce weight and size of the tool box is a great idea. 👌
SG is good for big aero seatposts - designed for them. It still uses plastic contact points (it is touching some delicate surfaces) but does work well for that purpose!
Pedros is a great company! I love the vise-whip! I’ve been using the Knipex Tubix for steerer tubes/handle bars/seat posts. Have you ever tried a pipe cutter instead of the saw guide?
I use a pipe cutter for all of my bicycle tubing! I actually used one to cut the example tube in the edited out footage ha. Alloy and carbon steerers, I use a hacksaw and guide since they are so thick. Steel cheapo fork steerers - I use a chop saw.
Hi Danielle 😊 well the end of the week came up quick, and this review of the saw guide was worth the wait, it's alot better design for what it has to do, and being all metal should last a few years, some plastics are ok for certain jobs but give me metal for parts that have to withstand daily wear and tear. Is that tubing chrome / moly, if so I bet it's tough on saw blades, Thanks for another interesting video, not too much echo on this one, so my hearing aids are sounding ok, lol. Have a good wkend, stay safe girl, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart UK.
I can't believe I just realized by you kept introing with the Napoleon Dynamite videos. The angled cut is super annoying. That is why I cut all my steerers with a lathe.

I'm pretty sure there's a French loaf line on there somewhere ...
Good job Pedros and what a messeup from Park on that one
I enjoyed this video series! Thanks for doing this!
Nice to see Paul make an appearance... :-)

Titanium tube, I actually use a tube cutter for those typically. Mostly just steerers with the saw guides! Just fresh out of example forks right now 🙂

It just took time to sink in 😂
