Hello all my fellow Propain Brother's and Sisters! Thanks for watching :) Just wanted to add that in order to get better mud clearence - I would suggest to get the longer version mudguard and mount it to the chainstay instead, that way you won't have to heat-shape the guard. And if you want a totally clean look, without the mudguard, the Rockshox Hose holders used in this video can simply be added to the bottom part of the back triangle close to BB, keep the propain-bracket and the cables should be safe from the tires. Oh and if you enjoyed this it's totally OK for me if you chose to Subscribe to this channel and maybe leave a like, I won't get mad at all, promise. ✌
Dude! Excellent video! I don't even have this bike and I watched the whole thing. Your sense of humor is hilarious. You are going to be big if you just keep making content.
Thanks for that dude ❤️ Yeah not been feeling it last few months but hopefully will get back to creating some new stuff! Have a bunch of ideas but damn career-life’s getting in the way some times
I have used just one zip tie per each cable in the same place as you have your "quick fix" zipties. I found so far no issues riding for around 5 months now, riding jumps and enduro:)
@@Frorideism cool :) how do you like the bike so far? I found that I should've taken one size smaller and am still strugling with tunning the Rockshox coil shock.. the suggested spring was way to soft so I bought 50lb harder but probably will have to step it up once more..
@@LowBr4in Really enjoy it tbh! Destroyed the Newmen Wheels after 2 weeks so that was a bummer but the bike itself and the geo feels spot on. Oh dang, yeah the modern bikes are big in sizing right now, and so many people are telling everyone to "size up" all the time - which is not always the best option. Have you tried like a 35mm stem and slightly narrower bars?
@@Frorideism unlucky with the wheels, mine are holding up quite good so far and there were few cases already 😁 do you use tire inserts? feels like for me it kinda helps. The geo is great indeed! I run short stem always, I just don't like long stems it feels so awkward for me. I am 180cm and running 780bars, thinking about cutting them down to 770, only thing that I am affraid of is that it's hard to go back :) Feels like the suggested sizing is measured for EWC riding, but maybe I will like it once bike park season starts, will see then..
@@LowBr4in Yeah Cushcore Always! ;) One think I really could notice at the start was the the bike sits really high, which was a bit awkward at first but I got used to it. In what way do you feel that it's too big btw?
It works for now :) Yeah Iv’e seen those printed brackets too, but so far they still look like they’ll flop around abit, don’t know. Would be cool to have it connected to the frame somehow and not only the cables 🤔
I ordered my Tyee on the 29th of December. It is due for production in the 2nd week of May, so long to wait. Your solution seems to be a good one. However to begin with, I think that I will try using cut up pop bottles, or pet as you would say. That way I can cheaply cut the plastic to the exact shape needed. Trial and error will hopefully find the perfect solution. It would be interesting to see if your solution works. Though judging by the snow outside your window, you may not be riding that much. Never mind, we had our first feel of spring yesterday, so it won't be long before you can test it out.
Let's cross our finger's and hope you get it in time! :) Yeah after making this video I think that it may be better to get a longer mudguard and mount it to the chainstay instead - This will make for better clearance for mud. It still does work, but I had to heat-shape it to get better shape. I've had a few rides and now the snow came back and killed my spirit again... 🥱
Tehe, in all other aspects these bikes are absolute killers, have had no issues with the routing after sorting it out - I did remove the mudguard though because I live in a too muddy area lol. So I feel you 100%, it should be better. But the bike itself slays
@@Frorideism correction, i haven’t actually purchased the axs just yet but 100% going to! I got myself a tyee at the weekend raw carbon/orange frame and fox. Going to be doing a build on it over winter 👌🏻
@@lewiscb9235 Ah nice! so you went with the GX and then changing it right - Sounds like a decent build dude :) And nice to have a winter project, My winter project's gonna be some Tyee focused videos too, just have to get the thumb out 😆
In the Spidrift and Hugene the cables go above the bottom bracket, I cannot see why they do not do that in the Tyee. I guess the best solution is going completely wireless, even the brakes...hehe.
Yeah I mean I would probably call it a design flaw at this point. Even though it's easily fixed. Haha yes those electrical brakes are on the way! Real sketchy invention if you ask me 😆
Nah not yet have not ridden too much, busted my leg a few weeks ago. But I can def. see that those rubber patches will get worn out fast - Maybe good idea to get a STFU chain damper?
I used a heat gun, to soften up the plastic and molded the fender to a better fit. EDIT: I should have waited for the video to run. I see you did the same.
En lösning, . I have just got my hands on my Tyee. Watching your video made me think about this. I have uploaded a video to UA-cam, with my solution. If you have a look at 1x Bikes Episode 7, you will see what I did. Clever, if I am allowed to say so myself. Liking your channel, I have subscribed.
Your comment was marked as spam for some reason so didn't see it until now, yeah that's a pretty nice solution you did there! The wooden T-thing was interesting too 😎 Myself iv'e removed the mudguard now later on and instead put shrink-rubber tubing on the cables, inside the frame protection, holding the cables, and then using the hose-guides from Rockshox to hold them into place away from the tire. Thanks for liking the channel and subscribing mate!
@@Frorideism could you do the update for the new version that you have made? its hard for me to imagine that. Mine is already damaged so I can only hope that Propain will do something about it via warranty. Great channel tho, I enjoy your sence of humor alot! :D keep up the great work mate!
@@jakubkabelac9343 hey! I'm trying a different way to route the cables right now it seems quite good! I can make some update video thing for sure! I just moved countries so life is a bit up in the air haha, Thanks for the comment though my man I appreciate it!

Very Creative. I might try something like this when I get my bike. I was also thinking about 3D printing a custom bracket.
It works for now :)
Yeah Iv’e seen those printed brackets too, but so far they still look like they’ll flop around abit, don’t know.

God glad I saw this. Definitely put me off buying one. Was looking at getting a 2021 second hand think I’ll stay clear

@@Frorideism i actually purchased one and went with axs
@@lewiscb9235 That's one way to solve it :)
Did you get persuaded by the Black Friday Discount thing? 😇

hahaha!! Amazing studio?? I love it.
Living the high life. 👌

You could get rid of one cable by going AXS. For the remaining one it is maybe helpful to mount it on the back of a bashguard.
Just have to sell a kidney first to get that AXS but hey it’s worth it to clear out a cable!
Have you experienced any trouble with the chain wearing out the rubber chain stay protector when using the smallest chainring?
Nah not yet have not ridden too much, busted my leg a few weeks ago.
But I can def. see that those rubber patches will get worn out fast - Maybe good idea to get a STFU chain damper?
Very nice!

EDIT: I should have waited for the video to run. I see you did the same.
Haha yeah! but it’s a fair comment because I think without shaping it the clearence would be too bad for use
Definitely going to do something like this. Thanks for the ideas.
Nice!

These is very nicht. I made on my tyee . Tanks.
Hope it works for you!
I actually removed the mudguard later to get a cleaner look 😝
