@@RealMTBAddict I run Assegai/dhr currently on my enduro and Assegai/Assegai on my dh I used to run dhf/dhf too, prefer dhf in the back over dhr tbh. but I'm not swapping tyres if they're still good (other than the Magic Mary/Big Betty combo I was running last year, never died as much as I did with these tyres. absolute dogshit) Next will probably be Michelins But I ride 29ers so I'm not limited with options
If you have a MTBer on the naughty list, print out tickets for a secret group ride with their fave UA-camr. …But it’s really a trail build day with the local MTB group.
The strider thing is awesome. Little kids develop a sense of balance way earlier than with training wheels. My little brother had one and he was able to ride an actual bike by the time he was two
The Y Bike is great for little ones, they can use it to learn to walk, or turn it around to ride similar to a strider. It has a more sprawled out stance, stable, soft caster wheels go any direction don’t bind
Had an idea for berm peak cabin. Do a flip bike series till you have enough money to put 2 medium size bikes in the cabin for riders to ride. Just an idea i had love the videos keep up the great work.
I have a MacRide, and it is LITERALLY my favorite thing I have ever bought in my life! My son and I have gone on SO many adventures together because of it. And that is my favorite thing to do!!! I got the blue one and put blue grips in the center of my bars, so all of his contact points are the same color.
Man....I wonder how my wife knew about this video.... Christmas came early for me... got a Berm Peak jersey, socks...and the hero 11... great video bro!
hi seth i have been watching you videos since it was called seth's bike hacks and you got me into montain biking and now i am a solid 3 years into mountain biking and can do some i can do some tricks too.
Stationery bikes need washing too!!!! I just did a full tear down on a customer's road bike that spent 12 months as his Zwift bike. Literally everything was corroded by sweat. Chainrings were flaking apart.
I used to work at a motorcycle dealership and we sold Strider bikes, they also have ski attachments for a winter sled conversion and they have multiple sizes depending how big your kid is.
Strider is awesome. When my son out grew his, he already had a bigger bike with training wheels. I got him a second bike (neighborhood give away…) and took the pedals off. He could practice balancing and pedaling separately. The day we took the training wheels off he was off and running.
Happy Hanukkah and Merry Christmas!!! Any kind of gift giving is good gift giving. The whole idea of giving gifts comes from St Nicholas!! Giving of oneself without expectation of return is the best way to give!!
Ah! Freakin brilliant. The link to this is going to a few people I know for sure!! Cannot believe how big your little one is getting!! My little one is loving her bike but we had to go with what we had which was the training wheel option... hoping to change that soon! 🤞 Thanx again for a fantastic video!
Had to pause the video where was that bar seat when we were kids I remember my dad picking me up from school on his road bike, I can still feel the pain from sitting there with my legs over the handle bars. But it was fun to be included
For a serious mountain biker with a toddler ready for a balance bike, I'd recommend going just a little step up from Strider ($140-190 for the Sport or Pro, the cheaper Classic has a hard plastic seat rather than a cushioned saddle) and upgrading to either a Prevelo Alpha Zero ($230, on sale for $210 atm) or a woom 1 ($200). For that $50 or so more, you get real rubber tires with better grip, more stable slacker geometry, a real headset rather than a quick-release compressed bushing, and a handbrake that even if younger toddlers don't use yet, it will help older ones stop more safely and aid the transition to pedaling by being one less new thing they have to figure out. My own kid had a Strider Sport that I ended up putting aftermarket wheels on and I really wish I would have spent the extra money up front: I'd say the majority of her crashes were from speed wobbles because of the too steep head tube angle. As for the MacRide, another alternative is Kids Ride Shotgun. Same concept, just different implementation. They also make fun little extras like a MTB themed alphabet book and sticker/coloring/activity packs, plus a tow rope.
I would mention in the description maybe that the shock pump doesn’t work on cheaper coil spring forks, as many people don’t have an air fork or a shock.
Thank for you saying MacRide instead of the ripoff Kids Ride Shotgun. We have had some of our best family memories with our MacRides and our two boys. Highly recommend to anyone with toddlers!
If you want to ride your bike with your kids, I recommend the kids ride shotgun pro seat für emtb or the normal one for a bio bike. My son loves this seats.
As far as shock pumps go, I highly recommend the Topeak ones, they have a dual locking mechanism that makes it so you barely lose any air when attaching/removing the pump
Great video Seth! We loved the Mac ride for our Little’s. Definitely helped them get the joy of biking before they were faced with the difficulties (climbing, falling etc)
Another “difficulty” is seeing dad remove the seat to go on a grownup ride……. Only made that mistake once and now it stays on the bike at all times and is discreetly removed when out of sight!
My little girl is turning 5 in January and we still use the Mac-Ride, most recently she rode along to do some trail work with me. Definitely pushing it with her size though, my knees hurt from having to pedal out to the sides haha
I’m on season 2 with kid #2 on our Mac ride. Lots of imitations out there now but still the best IMO. This year we discovered that pogies intended for kayak paddles make great hand warmers for cold days.
@@zadams5596 woom makes a good kids glove for cold weather, I think they're neoprene. And agree, the fact that the other competitor made they're second generation almost identical to the Mac-Ride says a lot. That company also copied the Tow-Whee, after two copies I wouldn't buy a thing from them.
3:05 hey I have that same mini pump, and it barely cost 6$! Not really the best pump since it's goddamn tiring to use but just look how small it is! It can only pump up 60-70 psi which is more than enough for MTB and manageable for RB(it can reach 80-90 but it's waayyy harder to pump to the point that your hands would be numb) . A really great gift for cyclists. . (And also, Seth's expression while pumping is not an exaggeration, that's how you'd look using this pump. I actually have fiercer look on my fave when using it)
Marry Christmas Also I have a great idea What if you build a snow bike (with snow tires and other things that work great with the snow) And a good name for it would be the blizzard
If you need a pump for tires or suspension xiaomi 1s electric pump is the way to go. Digital settings. Pretty small. Can even inflate up to 2 car tires and for a bike the battery lasts forever.
Yo Seth, Love the mtb videos and I live in Charlotte NC. My grandparents live in Asheville so on day im gonna come ride berm park. My friends say its great so I cant wait to come shred it!
Hooo my god man ! your daughter !!! hihi so lovely... miss those time with my daughter that is now 17 and racing so I can not even follow her anymore ! 🙂
Personally? I'd rather just have food as a gift. I either have everything else affordable that I need, or its expensive and I'd rather choose it myself. A big box of snack-type food? Heck yeah! Variety !
Future mountain biker Rebecca might need a junior sized pump track in the backyard soon. So adorable!
I'm looking forward to the top of the line kids bike builds
Yea i cant wait to see the bike builds for her
Yep. Little kids love to ride their run bike on pump tracks! Agree also 100%, a run bike is the way to start, never use training wheels.
Bro was on it lol
You predicted the future 😮
Imagine being a friend of a mountainbiker and the first thing you see in this video is seth wearing a helmet decorated like a christmas tree
Legit the last thing any of us want🤣
And?
It's a Hanukkah tree lol
It’s a good idea that’s what I do with my bike every year
We are just a different breed
Man I would freak out if someone bought me the exact tires I need. This is great advice.
Yeah especially since they are $85 each
Eh I like to test around, I pretty much buy different ones everytime just to see how they compare, and have the bike feel fresh and different for a bit
@@RiversideM I use Maxxis DHF on front and rear and slay all my Colorado trails. Plus Maxxis makes 26" unlike other joke companies
@@RealMTBAddict I run Assegai/dhr currently on my enduro and Assegai/Assegai on my dh
I used to run dhf/dhf too, prefer dhf in the back over dhr tbh. but I'm not swapping tyres if they're still good (other than the Magic Mary/Big Betty combo I was running last year, never died as much as I did with these tyres. absolute dogshit)
Next will probably be Michelins
But I ride 29ers so I'm not limited with options
Rofl 🤣
Love it, this is honestly the best Christmas guide ever
Well organized and thoughtful. Thanks for putting the time into this gift guide, Seth.
If you have a MTBer on the naughty list, print out tickets for a secret group ride with their fave UA-camr.
…But it’s really a trail build day with the local MTB group.
I see this as a win win situation, I need time off to build trails bro😢😅
BOOM! That Chamois is a game changer. Who knew such engineering existed.
I love the decorations, Seth!
Seth, you absolutely MUST send berm peak on the strider! You look dialed on it😂
He can't even say it lol. He says Shrider
no one ever gets me the right gift, hopefully if i send them this i get something im gonna enjoy, great vid 👍
The strider thing is awesome. Little kids develop a sense of balance way earlier than with training wheels. My little brother had one and he was able to ride an actual bike by the time he was two
hearing seths bike hacks brought back memories of when i first started watching this channel when i got into mountain biking

been watching your channel for years, until I opened mine, really a true inspiration.
Happy holidays
No, Merry Christmas Jesus is born!
Max Ride seat is amazing! My 2yo daughter loves it and it’s a blast to take her out on to the trails. Highly recommend!!!
As smart a sales pitch as I've ever seen! I see what you did there and respect it.
Man....I wonder how my wife knew about this video.... Christmas came early for me... got a Berm Peak jersey, socks...and the hero 11... great video bro!

I love your channel Seth and I have been watching your channel since 2018 and it has grown a lot! keep up the hard work.
I'm grateful that I have already got a berm peak hoodie about 2 months ago and I am grateful for that. 😇😇
The 3d printed Mini milk crate is awesome!
Can we appreciate how Seth did pretty good keeping his daughters face off camera
I adore 3:42 moment when the cap of fork fell off and you didn’t repeat the scene:)

Seth, I'm sure you've realised this already, but you were born for this! Great job!
Fun fact: my little brother (who is 1yrs old) owns a strider and a bo bike witch was kinda cool to see Seth’s kid use the same stuff my brother uses
Seth you are 100% right! Can you now please do a video on what to buy my wife for Christmas?
Thanks for the shoutout, Seth! We're getting these orders out ASAP for the holidays! Happy holidays and ride in comfort! :)
Perhaps Seth's greatest video.

I could definitely use another bike stand since I just recently purchased a fat bike.
Damn even Seth is out here telling us his baby is '21 months old'. Parents will be parents
How many weeks is that? I don't care

7:06 Correction: indoor bikes need the most cleaning.
Also recommend protection products like Boeshield
I got a canyon torque this christmas but this could be usefull for next christmas
Love watching little miss seth in these videos!!!
She is cute!
This is so much better than most of these, but not suggesting the EDC system of pump and tool is an oversight IMO
This is a surprisingly good and accurate gift guide
This channel is the perfect gift!!!
You got me there with hannuka not lying❤❤. Happy Hannuka
YES SETH!!! Please keep doing product videos like this!!
If you want to ride your bike with your kids, I recommend the kids ride shotgun pro seat für emtb or the normal one for a bio bike. My son loves this seats.
Have you considered painting level lines on some of the features on berm peak? That way people would have a better idea of just how steep they are.
I want that as a gift, so cute : ) 0:32
Just love kids.
(may God protect them and give them all a great life, ameen)
A must have for the mini pumps is a hose. So easy to destroy the presta valve.
Another well done and informative vid! I have shared this with my wife and family. Thanks Seth!
4:39 As an REI Bike Shop Employee, super happy Seth mentioned REI!
Yes to more socks and multitools. Don't need to know them well. It will always work
Those Gyro kids helmets are great. Mips options and they are fairly low cost. My daughter has one.
As far as shock pumps go, I highly recommend the Topeak ones, they have a dual locking mechanism that makes it so you barely lose any air when attaching/removing the pump
On that rocker you can use it to teach your kid to manual
You mean they are really good at loosing all the air you have just added
3:22 men are already good at that motion
Great video Seth! We loved the Mac ride for our Little’s. Definitely helped them get the joy of biking before they were faced with the difficulties (climbing, falling etc)

@@zadams5596 haha good looking out. The betrayal! :-)
Hey just a fair heads up, no hate to seth bus some lower-end mtbs use coil suspension so a shock pump would not work
A chain ring bash guard would make a great gift to.
Awesome vid Seth I'm sure this will help a ton of people.
Seth's stone cold dead pan stare while on the Strider was the UA-cam clip I didn't know I needed.
My little girl is turning 5 in January and we still use the Mac-Ride, most recently she rode along to do some trail work with me. Definitely pushing it with her size though, my knees hurt from having to pedal out to the sides haha
We just finished our 3rd season on it. Thankfully I ride an XL. Think ill still have room for my so next year. He's 5 now. What a product.

What if you build a snow bike (with snow tires and other things that work great with the snow)
And a good name for it would be the blizzard
You mean like the Rocky Mountain Blizzard fat bike? Pretty much exactly as you asked, already sold by a real company. 😉
@@squarehead1 well what I meant is that Seth builds it with his own personal touch

Holly crap, he said, “go down to your local bike shop,” instead of just order from Amazon. Thanks!
this is a classic seth vid thanks again i can pamper myself LOL
Never thought Seth of all people could make a bike look small
thank you perfect gift guide
Not the video I deserve but the one my wife needs. No really jokes aside she looked at me and said I do not know what to get you. So ya. Thanks again.
Love your videos man!
