"When to Stop" is probably the most important chapter

Quality of those tutorials is world class truly.

When I first saw the Destressing title frame at 10:44 I thought you meant going for a ride after the stress of doing all that detailed work 😄

This guy is the Bike God himself :DD

Park Tools provide some of the best instructional videos in the world, on any platform. They’re models of clarity and concision. Massive congrats to Calvin and the entire team. They create brand loyalty by creating superb content. When I need some bike maintenance kit, even if it costs a little bit extra, I buy Park Tools kit as a ‘thank you’.

I have never been much of a comic book reader. But, if we need a super hero, Mr. Jones would be a good one. This guy knows his stuff and loves teaching bike maintenance. I have gotten help from him at an event and attended a couple demonstrations, he is such a class act. Bet his blood runs Park Tool blue, Thank you Mr. Jones!

Absolutely excellent tutorial series. It is so nice to see the normal measuring system used in an English speaking video. Triple thumbs up!

The Gold Standard of cycle maintance videos - clear explanations and excellent graphics & photography - and all for free. Awesome!! A Big Thank-You. Love the spoke squeeze tip at 6:26 :-)

The first and best tutorial I’ve ever watched,

Park Tool knows me sooo well! I just laterally trued my wheel (I’ve tried to aim for perfection in the past and turned a 10 minute job in to 6 hours so have learned to live with 0.2-0.5mm) last night but have been very concerned about a high spot and how to correct this without putting it back out of whack! Now I know how to sort it!
-
So thankful for this knowledge!
-
