He digs through his bikepacking bins to explore how his setup has evolved over the years, from seat packs and stem bags to rear racks, rigid handlebar systems, and everything in between.

The Truth About Bike Chain Stretch: When Should You Replace Your Bike Chain?
What really happens when a bike chain “stretches”, and when should you replace your bike chain? In this video, I explain bicycle chain wear, chain elongation, replacement limits, and why changing your chain at the right time can save your cassette and chainrings from expensive wear. A bicycle chain doesn’t simply stretch like an elastic band. The wear happens inside the chain joints, gradually increasing the effective distance between the rollers. Over hundreds of links, those tiny amounts of wear add up — which is what we commonly call chain stretch. In this video, we look at: - How a bicycle chain actually wears - What “chain stretch” really means - How chain elongation is measured - What 0.5%, 0.75% and 1% chain wear actually mean - Why even tiny amounts of elongation matter - How a worn chain damages cassette sprockets and chainrings - When you should replace your bike chain - Why different drivetrain manufacturers recommend different wear limits - SRAM’s 0.8% replacement recommendation - KMC’s chain-wear guidance - Campagnolo’s precision-caliper measurement method - Shimano’s TL-CN42 chain-wear indicator - How often you should check your chain - Why there is no single universal chain-wear limit General chain-wear guidelines often suggest replacing a chain around 0.5% on modern 11-, 12- and 13-speed drivetrains, around 0.75% on many 5- to 10-speed systems, and around 1% on some single-speed systems. But manufacturers such as Shimano, SRAM, KMC and Campagnolo can specify different limits and even different ways of measuring chain wear. Understanding these differences can help you replace your chain before excessive elongation starts wearing out the more expensive parts of your drivetrain. 00:00 - Why Chain Wear Matters 00:48 - How a Bicycle Chain Works 02:04 - What Is Chain Stretch? 04:14 - How Chain Wear Is Measured 05:05 - 0.5% vs 0.75% vs 1% Chain Wear 06:14 - How a Worn Chain Damages Your Cassette 07:36 - When Should You Replace a Bike Chain? 08:07 - SRAM
