These videos are fine. If they think you talk to much they need to learn to listen for longer instead of wanting everyone to cut the conversation short just for them.

Love your videos. So relaxed and easy to watch. Keep up the good work. Seriously thinking about the Polygone Siskiu, but bikesonline don't do shiping to the United Kingdom so will have to source elsewhere. Good to see your review though.

Same issue kept finding the rear axle coming loose. Turned out to be the hub

This makes me think of something I think you’ve touched on before. Just how little grease is used in new bike parts. I e had brand new hubs apart and was shocked to find assembly lube levels of grease instead of normal use levels of grease.

If it’s creaking I would have definitely cleaned all the old grease out before reapplying. Just one grain of grit could make that noise.

Hey great video. I purchased a t7e about 3 weeks. I've been having the same issue with that irritating clicking sound. I thought it was the fork. Bikes online had me take it to a local bike shop and have a spacer removed. But that disturbing clicking still happens when going over bumps on the trail. It's difficult to duplicate off the bike so it was difficult to identify to the bike mechanic. The fork is in good shape but I still have that clicking sound. Frustrated.. wondering if I should attempt greasing the headset myself or returning it to the bike shop.

How did you go fixing the clicking sound ? About to buy either the T7E or the Collusus N8, but not keen on the sound you've described. thanks ! Martin

One thing to be careful of: If you go around tightening stuff that seems loose workout if it should be tight or should just be preloading bearings to stop them falling out etc before you go hammer time on it. I don't know about those wheel hubs. Maybe tightening the tube through the wheel right down so it's basically locked to the wheel position is correct. But maybe that tube is meant to actually just be tight enough to hold the bearings it's inside but not so tight the bearings can't actually move anymore (i.e. you can't hold the tube static and spin the wheel around it anymore). Sometimes issues like this are hidden because another thing (i.e. the axle that goes through the tube) can make it look like it's working. In this case if the tube in the wheel is meant to be free to spin in the bearings it might look like it's working correctly because now the tube is spinning on the axle that goes through it. Which will be awesome until the interface between tube and axel stop acting as a bearing and seize up. Basically: Not all things you can tighten should be so tight that it doesn't move anymore. Some things should be only tight enough to remove play.

@@underbikedoverconfident1142 I'm not sure what you're getting at but a quick look at the exploded diagram from the shimano hubs (I looked at deore xt) seem to have the bearings preloaded by the tube and it's nut. Sooo.. that would be one of the nuts you shouldn't be wrenching down.
