Steve's Hardtail Bike Check - 1 Year Later

I've been riding my Knolly Tyaughton for a year now and I have some thoughts on it! It's no surprise to anyone who has spent more than 5 minutes with me on a bike, that this is my favourite bike of all time. It has changed a bit since day one, so I'll also highlight some of my personal touches and customizations.

Just a heads up: all the products and services I list in this video are my personal opinion. Nobody paid me to say any of this stuff - I just like what I use and want to share that.

I got my One Up EDC Lite tool from Essential Cycles: https://www.essentialcycles.com/
