      thank you, it's so cool working for a bike brand I've loved for years! It's so natural for me - but LOADS to learn! That's cool, as I'll always want to share what I know. Suggestions always welcome! Thanks for watching!

    How about a video on the care of Mondraker thru headset cable routing? Perhaps some tips on keeping the moisture and grit out that area as well as tips on how to clean it when the grim gets in there anyway.
    Thanks for everything you do!

    Good to see you back at it again Doddy. It's always nice that you share some tips and tricks to keep your mountain bike in top condition. Have already learned so much from you. Keep up the good work. I'm very curious to see what kind of videos you will make in the future. Very big fan!

    Like to add on the tyre compounds. That if you live in freezing winter climates soft tyre compounds like maxxis 3c stuff just harden and get brittle. You're better off with the cheaper dual compound tyres. I have the cheap wirebead Conti Cross Kings and they work great in below 0°c conditions.

    • @DoddyMTBtech
      @DoddyMTBtech 10 місяців тому

      That's a great shout. It's rarely cold enough to feel much of a difference with compound in terms of it firming up. Thanks for commenting!

    Should I worry about keeping the ebike in shed in minus temperature, was minus 8 the other week and it's a crafty r so battery doesn't remove?

    I've got a question about SRAM AXS derailleur maintenance. Mine is creaking when I move it sideways. What do I do?

    • @DoddyMTBtech
      @DoddyMTBtech 10 місяців тому

      Hmmmm, not heard of that. I do have an original GX AXS mech on an older bike - let me have a wiggle and see if I get ideas. My instinct says some lube might work, but I'll have a look!

    • @CCW230
      @CCW230 10 місяців тому

      Cool! Thanks.
      Mine is an original GX AXS as well.
      Actually took the derailleur of the bike the other day. It seems as if the pins/pivots in the middle part have come undone. Like some of the four pins are now about 1 or 2 mm too long.
      Don't know how that happened. Since it's otherwise in quite good condition and didn't experience rock impact or something like that.
      Anyway, I took it to my LBS who will contact SRAM about it.

    Watching i video it came to mind.. Why not place moto foam between the motor cover and and the motor? Like it is on the top of my Crafty RR?

    • @andyarchitect
      @andyarchitect 10 місяців тому

      I guess just be mindful that it could cause heat build up in the motor from reduced air flow... but depending on climate and how much power you put through it it could be a non-issue.

    • @DoddyMTBtech
      @DoddyMTBtech 10 місяців тому +1

      exactly what Andy said. Air flow. It certainly does take a fair bit of muck in there, but the motor needs to keep cool.

    • @DoddyMTBtech
      @DoddyMTBtech 11 місяців тому +7

      That's not the plan! New content is important. There is a lot to do with Mondraker - we are always working on many bikes behind the scenes, and once I get in to the rhythm of things, I'll be doing lots of behind the scenes stuff that I have direct access to that others can't get. It's so cool seeing the huge process of bike development. Sure, there will be videos aimed at Mondraker owners and customers, and maintenance videos to suit them - but also all round mountain bikers. We also have a brand new World Cup DH team - so there will be cool stuff from there too!
