Hi everyone, it's Farah and today I'm going to be sharing my thoughts on Jellicoe
Road by Melina Marchetta. I've recently read this and it stayed on my
mind for a while. I've read a bunch of Melina Marchetta books. I read the
Lumatere Chronicles, it's a trilogy, a YA fantasy. I also read Saving Francesca, a
contemporary coming-of-age. And now I've read Jellicoe Road and I am convinced
that she is one of my favorite authors. This story follows Taylor Markham who
lives on Jellicoe road it's a boarding house for... I want to say children in need,
children in difficult circumstances. She was left by her mother in a 7-eleven six
years before the start of this book, and then taken in by Hanna, who also
works nearby the boarding school. At the same time there seems to
be a territory war between the people from the boarding school, the Jellicoe
Road ,the Townies, the people who live in town, and the cadets who come and visit,
in the summer I believe. I'm not really sure. This book can start off
being really really confusing. For the first hundred or so pages, I was reading
without really understanding much but you were still trying to get to know the
character Taylor and understanding that she's got a lot of issues. There's this
big mystery about where she comes from, who her mother is, why her mother left
her, who her father is, etc... She's come from a really
difficult childhood and because of that it really affects her personality and
she pushes everyone around her, away but when Hanna ,essentially her caretaker,
disappears one day without a note or anything,
Taylor starts to fall apart. At the same time one of the cadets Jonah Griggs
returns with the cadets and you realize that her and him have history and he
seems changed. He seems different. And you're basically plunged into this world,
into this story, into this plot, sort of in the middle of it happening so there's
all of this backstory that you don't actually learn about until after the fact but
I feel like Melina Marchetta gave you just enough to confuse you at the
beginning, keep you reading, and then answering all of these questions. I felt
that the characters were very well developed and fleshed out but some of
the other characters, you can see that they have history, you want to see more
of it you want to see more of that history. You want to get a better, clearer
understanding of it, but she doesn't, Melina Marchetta
doesn't always share that and it's not necessarily a bad thing but it just
kind of makes you want a little bit more from the story. But you also start to
understand the nature of Jonah Griggs and Taylor's history as well together,
and her history with Hannah, but also at the same time you start to realize that
she gets all of these flashbacks. These little moments and memories. And as a
child, of course, you don't really have a great collection of memories because, you
know, memories fade as you grow up. She has all of these unanswered questions
about her past and she's got these collection of memories to go by and to
solve that mystery of her past by and the way that it all comes together is
really interesting. I love the interactions between the characters. I
love the mystery in the way that it develops. You start to get the story
about four other characters. You don't know if this is real or if it's
temporary. You don't know how it relates to Taylor at all. But it just
all comes together. Like I said I've mentioned the interactions between the
characters or high schoolers. They're all kids more or less but the interaction
between them is so true to themselves. You know how high school kids these
days when you read a YA a or you watch TV shows they're so mature. They're so
much older than their age but these kids can be kids. These kids can be immature.
These kids can be kids, you know? And it comes across, because when I'm reading
this, I'm reminded of my friends from high school I'm reminded of my friends
in high school and university. I'm reminded of my childhood and how I was around kids,
how the boys were in class, how they act and stuff, and I really loved that. And
that's the thing. This this book was hilarious at times. Like really really
funny, laugh-out-loud funny because of that. Because it reminded me so much of
my school days, but at the same time it could be so emotional.
There were times that just broke my heart, and one tear slipping... because
the writing style is so evocative, it's so heart-wrenching. This is all written
in first person POV and I thought that that was done really well. So when you see that
sort of breakdown of the self, when you start to get answers, it's almost like
you don't want to. When things start to clear up
it just becomes really really interesting. When I first started it, and
I was very confused, I didn't think I'd like it. I was like oh my god I think
this is... I think this is not gonna be a really good read. I think it's gonna be
one of the ones that just don't click with me. But as a contemporary, it
really really clicked with me, and resonated with me because it deals with
very basic human emotions such as the need for love and comfort and safety
and belonging. There's always this question of being alone in this world
and having someone care if you disappear. So yeah, I actually really enjoyed this
book, guys. It really left a profound impact. Yes. So, go read it if you haven't.
It's a really good one. I really enjoyed it. So those were my thoughts on
the book. I hope you guys enjoyed this review, and I'll see you with my next one.
Bye!

Nat Reviews: Imagine Dragons' Lost Cause - Duration: 12:43.
Greetings everyone and welcome to the lair of the Nattie for this week I bring you a
Nat Reviews 'special' of sorts for the Halloween season.
This is the series where I take a look at a random piece of media and give my thoughts
on it.
This week around we will be taking a look at a rather early
song by the group Imagine Dragons, that being their song from 2012, Lost Cause.
Let us dive in, muahahaha.
Okay, so what is Lost Cause?
It is a song I feel may be a bit forgotten now and it was released just weeks after It's
Time.
So it's a fair bit of an early one for them.
It was also released just weeks after Night Visions originally
came out in September 2012.
So that is the era we are going to be experiencing here.
Just before they hit it big with Radioactive and
the other tracks from Night Visions.
Okay, so why would I be taking a look at a song I feel may be forgotten?
Well, it's this song that actually introduced me to Imagine Dragons in the first place.
Yes, a song that is very obscure in their discography is what introduced
me to them, strange isn't it?
But yes, this song came from the soundtrack to a movie I was very much interested in at
the time, that being Frankenweenie.
Yup, I talk so much about Imagine Dragons' soundtrack work and it's a soundtrack song
that helped me discover them, fun.
But yes, how many people actually remember Frankenweenie?
I fear it's become a forgotten movie, but I found it fascinating and I love it's visual
style and everything.
It also may catch your attention but yes, sort of Halloween themed song and movie, what
are the odds I review it so close to Halloween and it be my Halloween 'Special'?
I didn't even plan that one out haha, but yup!
Halloween-ish themes all around this week!
I won't spoil what happens in Frankenweenie but I have a connection to the movie still
thanks to this song, I still enjoy the movie!
But does the song still hold up?
I haven't heard it in so long, but let's find out!
Alrighty, so first things first, this song doesn't have an official music video, so I
am unable to take a look at that.
The group weren't big at the time, so it's understandably so.
Plus, yknow, soundtrack songs didn't tend to be as big then as they are now, so likely
something there too.
Compared to others on the soundtrack Imagine Dragons were not a big name, for
the time being that is.
Many of the names big on the album were ones big during the early to mid-2010s indie wave.
Names like Awolnation, Plain White T's, Passion Pit, Mark Foster, Neon
Trees, Skylar Gray, and Robert Smith.
Imagine Dragons hadn't even really made a name for themselves mainstream at the time
but they had been growing in their name with their many year
long concert tours, eventually signing with Alex da Kid.
But yes, Imagine Dragons at this time were growing their name amongst the indie rock
community at the time, known for blending their sound by mixing many genres together.
Night Visions was a sign of those years of developing their
sound.
That album had a vast array of sounds as they produced the album for years.
It's Time even was from before Platz joined the group.
But the early years of Imagine Dragons I hope to cover in a future review, I wanna focus
on the story around this song for now.
Like I did on my previous September reviews.
The makers of the album, Disney (Odd, my last two reviews for Imagine Dragons involve them
doing a song for Disney, huh), had gathered many artists together, I believe in an attempt
to be 'with the times' since they saw the trend
was facing towards indie musicians.
Imagine Dragons were in reach as Skylar Grey was around, so there could be that as a reason.
This song isn't talked about often so info on it is scarce.
But I notice something with the music titles on the album, they seem to be a bit angsty
and aimed towards young adults of the time.
Eh, I don't know what the other songs are like, it's been ages since I've heard them,
but eh, who knows.
Just working off titles.
But alright, let's move onto the song now!
Alright, so the song itself starts with a bit of a spooky sound, as to be expected for
the movie's theme.
It starts slow and spooky with a contorted bit of audio.
There is something that is immediately obvious to me and that is what the song sounds like.
It is very much of the vein of Alex's work around the time, he was in his prime at the
time doing songs for many groups including ones
that got extremely successful.
This song has a strong similarity to one of Alex's songs around the time, which coincidentally
included Skylar Grey, that being I Need A Doctor.
Like, listen to each song back to back (Links in description) and you'll notice that instrumentally
the songs are eerily similar.
Okay, so instrumentally the song doesn't entirely resemble a song from Night Visions, likely
why it wasn't included on anything for that album.
But yes there is the dark sound that Night Visions had, but as for things aside
the dark sound, it doesn't sound like the music Imagine Dragons were doing at the time.
It is definitely a Imagine Dragons song of the time
just in the lyrical department.
Lyrically it's very 2012 Imagine Dragons, instrumentally it's I Need A Doctor and Alex
da Kid's style of the time.
Heavy in drums/drum machines, heavy industrial sound and dark rock.
It was the industrial rock of the time I was beginning to discover by the way and I was
interested, so this song went really well into it.
What is the song lyrically like?
Well, it is very inspired by the movie from my memory of it.
The parts of burying someone and saying they are all that person has, yes.
It relates to the movie very well in that sense.
The dark sound blends with the movie too for what it was trying to do.
I do note a comparison of my own of this song to Blue October's Hate Me, as in
the protagonist wants the other person to be rid of the protagonist for their own good.
There isn't the suicidal themes of Zero or Hate Me, but it's still suggesting of it.
The protagonist feels they are deep in depression and can't be freed or raised back to positivity.
They feel hopeless and feel they are hurting their friends and loved ones by sticking
around.
The shallow grave part suggests that to me that they feel they are worthless.
They find comfort in a certain friend and value them highly however as a note there.
The lyrics to me suggest this, but you can have any other view on it yourself.
I am sure there are many ways the lyrics can be taken, this is just my thoughts.
I will give one little side note before moving onto the conclusion, but I notice that the
way one is being buried and in a shallow grave, this really reminds me of Natural's music
video, where Dan Reynolds did this exact thing.
So maybe that bit was a call back to this song?
Who knows.
But yes, onto the conclusion.
Well, the song is certainly of it's time.
It is perhaps the darkest song the group has ever made, dealing with death and hopelessness.
The song has never been performed live and it is
not found on any streaming platforms, it appears the song is extremely mysterious and is almost
like it's trying to be covered up by the group or the label.
There is surprisingly scarce information on this song even on the internet.
The song is a forgotten gem of the band and it appears that is how it will stay.
But I am glad to share it with you, videos for it are
scarce but one is linked below.
The song holds a very special place for me being the one that introduced me to the group.
It's dark themes also work well for this time of year, being
Halloween and all, so certainly do check it out as it really goes well with the season's
themes!
You definitely should check it out if you enjoy Alex da Kid's work and the early 2010s
era of alt rock music/indie rock/rock music.
Okay, so what would I rate it if I had to?
Well, it's a gem of a song buried by the sands of time and it is very much forgotten about
or unknown to many it seems.
It deserves a listen for the curious, but as a song overall aside
the mystery...
I think the song probably gets a A- from me, the special place it has just swings it to
the A range, the mystery is interesting to me as well.
But yes, overall the song is very of it's time and goes neatly with the movie soundtrack
songs Imagine Dragons did at the time, even if at the same time it stands out for
being such an oddity.
Check it out if curious, but yes, the song gets my recommendation.
I don't even need to answer this if you've been around my channel or seen my other Imagine
Dragons reviews, but the answer is most certainly yes!
This was the song that introduced me to them in general.
Now, six years later, that continues!
My enjoyment of their stuff has went through period of ups and downs but I still look forward
to their new stuff even so.
Origins, their follow up to Evolve, will be coming out November 9th and I am very much
looking forward to it, though I would like some more singles released first to get a
feel for the album more.
But as for their work aside albums, I think they have mostly stopped doing music directly
for movies, compared to how they were years ago, but their music is still used
very widely among many medias.
This is getting a bit off topic, but yes, the answer is certainly!
As for the movie?
It is definitely one I feel people should check out more, it's a very odd movie from
the time and it's interesting to me.
Odd how I remember it still so much even this long after seeing it the one time.
Definitely worth checking out for the curious.
I won't spoil what happens in it, so don't worry.
It's a movie I still hold dear from my childhood for
all it was.
Do give it a look if you wish, but yes, appears we've reached the end.
Alright, so that just about does us this week for the spooky nature of the holiday!
Hope you all have a wonderfully spooky time this Halloween, just... don't try reanimating
the dead like in the movie.
This has been your hostess Nattie, thank you for spending some time with me in my lair.
Now go flee before the monsters begin rising from the night.
Oh, dig my shallow grave 'Cause it's not me you'll save
'Cause I'm a lost cause I'm a lost cause
A lost, lost cause

You can get oats that are gluten free but a lot of people still react to them. So oat free great
and
They're just a great company it says warrior mix was inspired by our son growing up fighting the battle against autism
He's a real-life warrior armed
With a gluten-free diet and overcoming one day at a time. I'm proud to offer this junk free snack for every day warriors like you
Peace love and paleo. I love that. I love that I love that
They called their son a real life warrior and I thought they named it the warrior mix like it just feels like every day

so
It's just like chunks of
Yumminess, I mean it's hard to but like you can actually see chunks of almonds
You can see chunks of pumpkin seeds
You know, you can see that it's made with almond meal and
It looks delicious
Mmm
The first bite I got almost a full size almond
Which I love like I'm obsessed with almonds. I
could probably live off of
Almonds and avocados
Probably my one of my two to my favorite foods in the entire universe, almonds and avacados. but
I
love the seeds and it
Has a great texture, you know, you could taste like that, honey
But it's definitely not too sweet. I
Surprised surprised. I'm not I don't like like
super-sweet products
Which is weird since I love to make
lots of sweet products but
Um when I'm eating a snack and stuff, I don't like it like so heavily
Sweet and this just has like that touch of honey. It's not super sweet

Keep it in my gym bag. Even I'm just a snack because sometimes
If I don't have time to eat breakfast before I go to the gym
This would be great to eat it pop in my mouth and it wouldn't like make me feel sick
Well, I'm working out so that's great. Um
my mom keeps
her desk at work stocked with
Snacks and stuff. I think this would be great to give her so she can keep you know
Some good snacks in her desk and a lot of people you just need something just pop your mouth and keep with you

This one has a little bit more coconut flavor are all center stage with a chocolate
Honey flavors
backstage, I love that I
Love that it's just a touch of chocolate. Not a huge chocolate flavor, but you're still getting what you need from it
It still tastes like chocolate and it's really good
Okay, so this is the last one that I got. It's Hagen's Berry Bomb
and
It has seeds, honey and berries so it has
pretty much the same but it has
Cranberries in it which I love cranberries. I think they're such a good I
Just love them they taste good they're not too sweet. I love dried cranberries. I think they're just so good

Vienna Cream Flavourart – Review & Recipe [Light and Subtle Cream] - Duration: 7:27.
Hello and welcome to diy eliquid recipes.
I'm john and I'm back with a fresh review and recipe for this week.
So today we are going over Vienna cream from Flavourart.
I will be using this longer format again to go more in depth for this one.
So today we will talk about the flavor, ratios of use, steeping, nicotine levels and last
Ill show you an eliquid recipe with it, all in this order.
So This is a very nice diacetyl free cream flavor with a mild cream profile and a smooth
vanilla aftertaste.
It is similar to meringue but with slightly richer body.
Compared to other creams, Vienna cream has a clean and light taste that will not overpower
other flavors or bases but rather accompany them and blend in nicely.
In general compared to other thicker creams or custards this is not so prominent as a
cream flavor.
It is still a cream don't get me wrong, but where Vienna cream shines is when it is
used as cream supporter or booster It will do a great job blending in and enchasing the
taste of other creams making them richer and deeper tasting.
You could use Vienna cream as the only cream in a recipe but it will not introduce a thick
body like a custard would mainly because it has no acetoin or other dikatones, so instead
it will rather brighten up your mix and make the rest of the creams smoother and lighter.
IF on the other hand you would like to recreate a thick cream flavor then I would recommend
combining it with a custard of your liking.
I will talk about the flavor and how to use it again later when going over the recipe
I prepared for you, so now lets move on to the ratios of use for Vienna cream.
As I mentioned earlier this flavor doesn't have a lot of body so it will taste very light
alone but if for any reason you want to give it a try solo here are some helpful ratios.
For a mild solo mix use it from 2 up to 4%.
That will give you just a faint sample of this flavor.
And for something stronger use it from 4 to 6%.
It is rarely used that high in a recipe but alone it could work ok to test.
Now lets move to the ratios for making recipes with this flavor.
So to use it as a base 3 to 5% is the recommended ratio.
But 3% is usually the most commonly used ratio when you are using Vienna cream together with
another cream to boost it.
And as an accent or flavor enhancer use it from 1 to 2%.
For this flavor 1% in most cases should be enough as an accent especially if you trying
to brighten up darker tobaccos.
It will just make them taste smoother without altering their taste too much.
Now let's go to steeping.
Vienna cream as some of you might know already, is a medium VOC flavor.
Meaning it will have an alcoholic after taste for 1 or 2 days after mixing it.
Some people recommend leaving the mix to breath for 10 or 15 minutes.
I wouldn't recommend doing that exclusively, but if you have never done before give it
a try once to see if that technique works better for you, as it does for some people.
In any case, Vienna cream unfortunately is a long steeper but a very rewarding flavor
if you give its time to mature and blend in.
For a quick steep usually 5 days are enough to get the initial profile developing.
But for a normal steep give it at least 10 days with 15 days being a recommended deep
steeping period.
Now after steeping lets quickly go over the recommended nicotine ratios before moving
to the recipe.
This is a light flavor and nicotine will start interfering and introducing a bitter aftertaste
if you go to high.
A suggested nicotine concentration for most eliquids using mainly Vienna cream would be
from 2 up to 4mg.
The ceiling ratio would be around 6mg and with 1 to 2 mg recommended for the best flavor
delivery.
And now moving to the recipe.
This is a light cream and chocolate eliquid.
In general chocolate is used less often in eliquids so it is nice to revisit it as a
flavor every now and then . So here is the recipe for you too.
It uses the Vienna cream as a booster to the capella vanilla custard.
These 2 flavors combined together with acetyl Pyrazine create a nice base for the chocolate
and the sweetener to blend in.
It is a recipe with full flavor and a nice body with a mild milk chocolate after taste.
Originally instead of the double chocolate from tfa I was using the capella fudge brownie,
and I still do for my mix, but since not that many people have this flavor I convert it
to the tfa chocolate which works almost as good.
But if have fudge brownie in your collection then use that instead at the same ratio.
In general, I find this is a very enjoyable chocolate recipe with a thick vapor delivery.
Now because of the creams, the chocolate and the high ratio of vegetable glycerin, this
recipe will need at least 1 week steeping.
It sounds long but the eliquid will definitely not disappoint you after that wait.
A a summary I think Vienna cream is great flavor.
If you just starting out, this cannot be the only cream to own since it won't have the
cream taste you would be expecting, for that thicker cream profile try Bavarian cream from
any of the companies.
But if you are looking for a light and subtle flavor or a cream booster then this would
work great.
You will find vienna cream used in many recipes online and after buying it you will also find
yourself using it more often than you would expect, sometimes you'll see a few drops
can go a long way with this one.
In any case, if you made it all the way here I hope you enjoyed the information and as
always feel free to also leave your thoughts about Vienna cream below.
Happy to be here once more and I will see you soon again with a new video.

fits right on top so very very easy to put together and here's a look at the
solar panel. The one thing that you do need to do before you put these outside
is to turn them on and just take the top off and there is a little button that
you press down I'll cover it so I can see that its own yeah so that's off and
that's on
and put the top back on okay so there's really nothing to putting
them together quick and easy. So these provide they each provide 30 lumens of
LED color changing light and they are just really perfect for paths sidewalks
but they can be placed anywhere in your garden or yard. They are waterproof to IP65
withstand rain of course they'd have to their outside so no lights right please
install the device facing south and make sure the solar panel can receive good
sunlight directly without shelter or cover and with my experience with solar
lights is they don't have to face south but ideally they would
here's a look at how they appear during the day on the sidewalk here as you can
see it's it's it's near the end of October so my hosta kind of look sad but
don't pay attention to that. They are so easy to put it in the ground why I like
the stake lights like this because you don't have to commit to a certain
location you can move them no problem there is the solar panel on top just
gorgeous they are mesmerizing
they just add so much to the outside decor.
and of course the best thing about solar lights is you don't have to wire
anything they're so easy to install you don't have to worry about running wires
or electrical outlets and there's no addition to your electric bill
so fascinating watching the colors change
please check the description section below for more information about this
product and for links to our social media thanks for watching

[iKON 24] iKON - It's Love [Sugar Man] Reaction and Review - Duration: 8:16.
hi this is 24
so iKON 24 will be upload on Monday and Wednesday
so just like I said, Monday and Wednesday
we are also thinking bout new contents, so please wait
So iKON came out on Sugarman like unit
Bobby, JunHoe and DongHyuk
we will review 'it's love'
there is no video on Youtube
we are fastforwarding the video cause of the copyright issue
you guys can't really watch the MV anyways
there are only audio
so this 'it's love' is remaked
so this 'Sugar man' is a channel that artist recompose the original song and sing on stage
I do part time job in tripe restaurant and I listen to this song a lot
It was really fresh and nice that iKON who are my favorite artist sing my favorite song
'it's love' remake by iKON
i think the killing point of this song is
JunHoe and DongHyuk;s
harmonization of tough vocal and soft vocal
and Bobby's rap is really hard but fits well with the song
original one doesn't have the rap part
Bobby did it so well
he does it really tough
so we listened only bout two words
Jun Hoe's pronounciation of girl
YG prefer this kind of dictation a lot, and Jun Hoe is a matchless one bout this
so we listened till the 1 verse
so till this part, Bobby's rap was kind of soft
I think the killing part was DongHyuk
he does it with palseto
and turn back to original voice
that part was really nice
right after DongHyuk's part finish JunHoe come in
the way they do like this
was really good
the lyric ' it's love, even though I erase it is still love'
this sad feeling song
DongHyuk expressed in sad way
and JunHoe did it in screaming kinda feeling
the chemistry between this two was really good
I think when they send them to sugar man they considered the combination and I think the choice was perfect
this two combination really maximized the song
the combination of main vocal, sub vocal and rapper was good
so we finished listening
first thing is
JunHoe's vocal is really unique among those idols
Are there any idol singers like this?
so if we talk about idol vocal
they prefer those with soft and nice vocal
this one was big
so JunHoe prefer and love to sing Rock Ballad
Review about hidden mask will be soon
he really fits well with this kind of song
not sure what if other artist sing this song
JunHoe definitely has his own unique style
second is Bobby's rap
ono this chill and nice song
is not easy to rap
eventhough as the beat goes on the style kinda change
but still is not easy
and this song is melody based
is really difficult to rap melodically on this kind of song
his rap flow was really unique
looks really simple
someone who tried rap making will know that
is really hard
rap need to fit well with the mood of the song
and also need to show my rap skill
yeah is really hard
Bobby is a true rapper
who can rap on any song
I can say that iKON really showed there confidence of doing there music on any other songs
such as hero of the remix
and also sugar man
ofcourse iKON looks the best when they do there own music
doing the cover song is also really good
chose the song really well
I'm not sure how the outcome of sugarman ended
as a fan, I really like this
this kind of event type of stage
after this, I liked the original song even more more
I listened both original and remake version a lot
also a song that I favor to sing in Karaoke
Wish they be on the TV show more often
something that I'm sad about is that
well-known members come out most of the time
sometime as a whole member
wish other members come out more often
YunHyung came out on Jungle's rule before
I'm talking bout personal content
on Hidden Mask, Bobby and JunHoe came out
Bi and Bobby did quite a lot of show
Jin Hwan came out on Mari and Me with B.I
Chanwoo seems really less
and DongHyuk
I really didn't know about this
That Chanwoo has his own youtube channel
is a shame for me, iKONIC to don't know bout this
I knew about this only 1 month a go
I knew that recent time
it was really fun
he took that while he was on schedule
it was bit shaky
edit was a little. a little
there was a comment saying that please do the edit of Chanwoo's video
I could understand why there was that kind of comment
he does really well and was really fun
it was nice to see Chanwoo find and make his own contents
can feel the sense of kinship as a youtuber
ofcourse he has the silver button
who knows, someday we could collab
umm yeah, sorry

2014-2017 Silverado 1500 Superchips Flashpaq F5 Tuner 5.3L Review & Dyno - Duration: 10:09.
So, if you are a '14 to '17 Silverado owner with the 5.3-liter motor and you wanna squeeze
out every little bit of performance that your truck can offer, you should be checking out
a tuner like the Flashpaq F5 Tuner that I've got with me in my hand with me today.
There are a lot of tuners available for the Silverado but I like this one in particular
for a couple of reasons.
Number one, it's probably one of the fastest tuners in terms of software and functions.
It's very responsive, has a really nice HD color screen on here, and we were actually
able to tune our Silverado in less than five minutes.
We wanted to see what the Flashpaq could do so we ran our truck on the Dyno and bone stock,
it is a 289 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque.
With one of the Flashpaq's pre-loaded tunes, our truck ended up making 304 horsepower and
313 pound-feet of torque.
That makes for peak gains of 15 horsepower and 40 pound-feet of torque but what's really
nice are the curve gains.
We made 59 horsepower and 50 pound-feet of torque.
Those curve gains are nice because that's what you're gonna feel when you're driving
around on a daily basis.
Keep in mind, you can make custom changes to those tune files as well to squeeze out
even more performance.
I only recommend you do that if you really know what you're doing because there is a
lot that you can actually customize with the F5 Tuner.
Besides those performance and economy and towing tunes that the tuner comes with, it
can also read and clear trouble codes in real time so if you get that annoying Check Engine
light and you're not quite sure why, you don't gotta go to the dealer or pay the guy down
the street just to scan it for you.
You can do it on the tuner in real time and you can actually clear those trouble codes
as well.
Besides reading and clearing trouble codes, you can also pull all the information from
the ECU in real time using gauges so you can actually monitor engine performance while
you're driving around.
You can also data log if you're doing any custom tuning to your truck.
So if you like everything I've talked about and you like the fact you can get some decent
power gains out of the F5 Tuner, go ahead and stick around.
We're gonna go through all the features on the tuner itself and we're actually gonna
show you how to tune your truck at home.
So like I said, using the F5 Tuner is very easy.
All you gotta do is plug it into your OBD2 port with the supplied cable connected to
the tuner.
And in the case of our Silverado, our port is connected directly underneath the steering
column.
All right, so once you've plugged in the F5 Tuner, it's gonna load the screen.
You're gonna wanna make sure your key is in the on position in your ignition and we're
gonna go ahead and go over the features and how to tune your truck.
So once you've loaded the Flashpaq on your truck and you've put your key to the on position,
it's gonna be connected directly to your ECU.
It's gonna take you to the home screen, which is the tuning page but we're gonna save the
best for last so we're just gonna quickly go over some of the other features of the
Flashpaq tuner.
The other screen that you're gonna see here is the scan screen and that's also gonna provide
you the option with reading and clearing engine codes as well as reading your gauges and data
logging your truck in real time.
If you do have a Check Engine light, you can go in here, you can read what the code is,
and if you actually do have a code, it's gonna pull the code up on this screen.
This is a really great way to save a little bit of money as opposed to going to, say,
the dealership or a local shop and having them check your codes for you.
A lot of times, they'll charge you money for this but you can do it right here on the tuner.
And you can plug that code in online and figure out what the issue is.
Once you've figured out what the issue is with your Check Engine light, you can actually
clear those codes and it will get rid of the Check Engine light.
Do take note, if you don't actually fix the underlying issue, the light will return eventually
until you actually fix the problem.
What I really like about the Flashpaq is the gauges that you get in real time.
This allows you to monitor your engine's performance and you can select up to eight PIDs, or eight
gauges if you will, while you're actually driving.
Once you click Okay on that little confirmation screen, it's gonna take you to all of the
different gauges that are available.
You have engine parameters in here, all kinds of good stuff including RPMs, your spark advance,
your coolant temperature, your pressure in your intake manifold.
If you come back out here, you have your air intake system.
You can check parameters for your mass air flow sensor.
You can check your air intake temperature.
You can basically anything the ECU is monitoring, you can pull it up here on the F5 Tuner.
There's really too much to go over on here but just take note, it is a very thorough
little device.
I really like it.
It's a great way to benchmark your truck if you're tuning it or adding mods. and it's
also a great way to diagnose other issues besides the reading and clearing trouble code
function.
Lastly, you do have a little battery voltage check here.
A lot of trucks are equipped with them nowadays but if yours is not, this is a nice way to
check your voltage.
When your truck is off, 12.5 is a good resting voltage and when your truck is running, I'd
say anywhere between 14 and 15 volts should be good.
All right, now besides scanning and diagnostics, this little device also provides you some
basic information about your vehicle.
It's a really convenient way to pull up your VIN.
It's also a nice way to pull up the operating system that your ECU's running on and if you've
actually forgotten what tune you're using with the F5, it will actually tell you up
top here whether your truck is stock or whether you're running one of the available tunes.
Besides that, you have your device info here.
If you ever run into issues with your tunes, Superchips' customer service is pretty good
with helping you out.
They might ask you for some of the information on this screen to help troubleshoot stuff.
So, now that we got all of that stuff out of the way, we can go ahead and go over the
fun stuff and that's actually tuning your truck.
Go back to the tuning page using the arrows and select Okay.
Now, once you've selected Okay, it's gonna bring you to the available tunes that the
F5 Tuner comes with.
Like I mentioned earlier, you have a performance tune, you also have a tune for towing, and
you also have an economy tune.
Lastly, if you wanna make custom changes to your ECU, you can load a pre-loaded stock
tune with different options.
You can advance your timing.
You can change your spark.
You can also change your air to fuel mixtures using this stock tune with options.
I strongly recommend you do not mess with this stuff unless you know what you're doing
though.
It's very easy to make changes to the ECU and if you do something that's outside of
a safe parameter, you could end up with some serious mechanical issues.
So again, only do the stock tune with options if you've done your research and you know
what you can handle with your truck's components.
We're gonna go straight to the performance tune here so we can show you what kind of
gains you're gonna get using the F5 Tuner.
Now, you're gonna get this little confirmation screen here saying that performance is designed
for a non-towing application and 91 octane or higher fuel is required.
We went ahead and loaded our truck up with 91 octane so we are good to go.
Click Okay to confirm.
It's gonna ask you if you wanna customize any options with this tune and that's very
similar to that stock tune like I just mentioned.
We're gonna go ahead and leave everything as-is because we wanna see what the F5 Tuner
can do on its own.
Again, these are some of the options that you can make changes to.
You can set your rev limiter as well as your speed limiter and you can also change your
gear ratio and tire size if your speedometer's not correct.
Again, we wanna leave all those things the same so we're just gonna continue with the
tune as it is.
Now, once the device has started building the tune, at this point, you wanna definitely
wanna make sure that you do not disconnect the tuner.
You do not wanna take your key out of your ignition.
Once it's built the tune file for you, it's gonna ask you to confirm that you want to
install it.
Go ahead and click Okay.
And again, at this point, the F5 Tuner is making modifications to your ECU.
If you were to unplug the tuner or lose the connection for any reason, you could actually
lock up your truck, in which case you'd need a recovery file.
Superchips is pretty good with helping out with that stuff but it's always good to just
make sure that you don't mess with anything while this process is happening.
Now, once you've powered down your ignition and you select Confirmed, it's gonna give
you this little confirmation screen saying that the performance tune is now installed.
You can go ahead and click Okay to continue and that's really it.
That's the whole process of tuning your truck.
Very easy to use, very straightforward with very clear instructions and, in my experience,
the Flashpaq honestly is probably one of the faster tuners when it comes to tuning your
truck.
So, as you can see, using the F5 Tuner is very easy.
It comes packed with plenty of features and it makes tuning your truck very simple.
That actually wraps up my review and install of the Flashpaq F5 Tuner, fitting your '14
to '17 5.3-liter powered Silverado.
I'm Travis.

Lego Technic 42079 B Model Tow Truck Review + Motorization - Duration: 7:33.
Hello everyone and welcome to Gate Lego Technic channel. My name is Leha and
today I'm going to review the recent summer 2018 lego technic smallest set
smallest set 42079 the B model tow truck. Should be interesting
let's go! This is what you can find inside the two instructions for the B
model as well which is really comfortable for me I don't have to go to
the Internet as usually for the other B models to download it. Cool Arocs wheels
62 millimetres really useful for your creations. And right from the very start
I can note the very interesting 3x11 dark blue crawler type panel and the
crawler owners will definitely like it. Black 5 X 7 frames which we
have already seen, the warm gear very useful, pretty interesting color for this
connector I haven't seen it in blue yet and maybe this one 3l gray connector
also haven't seen it in this color
so the model is ready it looks really good
and I really like it like this combination of yellow and blue is good
and this 5x7 frame is used very usually here. I didn't use my stickers on
it but not because they are bad, but rather because they are good. To use it in
my own creations. I also have to say that
comparing this model with A-model forklift this new model has a lot of leftover
parts you can see. It was a real surprise to me that the worm gear was not used in
the gear rack mechanism in the back I think it could have been done but it's
still good as well as some u-joints and some other connectors which are always
useful. Moving on to the functions this model has HoG steering wheel which
controls the front axle. There is no steering racks, it uses simple liftarm
mechanism. The turn radius is okay as well as the second function which is
supposed to be like the main one and the feature of this model - the towtruck
manipulator with the hook. I think it could have been done a little bit more
thoroughly it could be better-looking but we have
what we have I'm really surprised that the gear rack
is not using the gear worm mechanism but it's still pretty sturdy
It is pretty satisfying to tow it. This model is done for the smallest LEGO
minifigure like 1 in 20 scale and it can be easily suited in the cabin
I think it's even a little bit small for this model maybe it is 1 to 16 or
something but it's not the main thing. Also this model has the feature to open
the front hood the engine is working as well as the doors. Oddly enough this
model uses these gray gears just as the bushes which is really surprising
here since there were some bushes left in the leftover parts but sure whatever
will take it. So let's move on and see if we can motorize it
So here it is two-wheel drive via the power functions L motor. The M motor can
be used here of course but I try to make it faster. Since I didn't want to use
PF servo I decided to use M motor connected through the knob gears
the yellow ones you can see them here and white clutch gear
Set can be easily motorized. The way I've done it is not the perfect way I believe
and it can be done much better but still it's working and the size of the model
is good for its motorization. Overall I like this set a lot and I think it costs
its money. I enjoyed it
This video format is really new to me and if you have any suggestions how to
make it better or maybe you don't want to see my face;) leave it down in the
comments and like and subscribe the video if you liked it and that's it for me. Peace out
See ya

Star Wars Battlefront 2: General Grievous Review | @Pace Maker - Duration: 6:56.
Hello and welcome to another Pace Maker Gaming Battlefront 2 video. In today's
video we're going to be discussing General Grievous and doing a general
review on his gameplay, how he works, the emotes, the appearances and
pretty much the whole whole lot! So if you guys are new to the channel please
consider subscribing. I'm doing plenty of General Grievous videos and livestreams
to keep you all busy but without any further ado let's get into a full review of
General Grievous in Star Wars battlefront 2. As you guys can see here
he looks pretty good, pretty accurate very clean and I've got nothing that I
can really say against his model. I'd have to say that the model that dice have
delivered of General Grievous they have absolutely nailed it.
I completely geeked out by seeing a model of Grievous when I saw the
trailer it looked fantastic the leaked imagery looked fantastic but now that we can see
him actually within the game he looks pretty great even when you do a
little bit of close-up into the details within Grievous's eyes behind his
mask it's very sharp and that's we really like to see so the details on the 3D model look great.
So now in regards to the emotes I honestly thought that they've practically included
every General Grievous emote that we'd want to hear in Battlefront 2. I think
it's been very well thought through just hearing you are a bold one in
Battlefront 2 and you have to kill someone then say that quote is just
fantastic. So I'm very happy with the emotes and I think they've done a
banging job but what do you guys think? Let me know in the comments below
and appearances so we've only got two appearances for Grievous his jedi hunter
which is a base costume and the battle damaged? I'm still not sold by the Battle
Damage outfit but it's good to have a variety of outfits and I'll be
definitely be using the Jedi hunter skin for grievous. So getting into the
gameplay now and how general grievous works in movements so my feelings and
these are just completely my own opinion and you guys may differ and if you do
just let me know in the comments below grievous is pretty awesome he's a
cool character to have but he's a little bit slow in my
opinion. I think the way he moves was quite a little bit slow in
comparison to some of the other heroes. You can get around that by using the
claw rush ability but just generally his melee strikes and
how vulnerable he is left after he does some of his attacks in
particular the four lightsaber rush where he impales you with all four
lightsabers that though that can't you leave you vulnerable for a little while
which is necessary. I mean Grievous has to be balanced he can't be completely
overpowered and OP otherwise everyone would use Grievous and everyone
who's used Grievous would win. But my main criticism for Grievous is that he's
pretty slow. He also runs out of stamina incredibly, incredibly fast and
what I don't understand is that he has a card that makes him do more damage with
lightsabers but drains even more stamina and I think grievous losses stamina
quicker than any other lightsaber hero in the game which i think is probably
something that might want to be revised. I don't think him losing stamina as
quickly as he does balances the character too well I think he could do
with some more stamina and because if he if he goes up against
I mean maybe three to four heavies and they're all laying at him
he can't block for more than like three seconds just because of how
low his stamina is. So in my opinion that's something that DICE should
definitely look into reviewing in future updates to General Grievous.
So his traditional lightsaber mele does do pretty good damage I'm really
happy of that I was hoping that we'd get a card ability where Grievous
temporarily uses all four of his light sabers but we haven't got that in this
update which is I think I think is a shame honestly I think it's a shame I
think it would have been really cool if he could really actually leverage using
all four of his light sabers, all the promotional material of Grievous has shown
him using all four of his light sabers predominantly especially of him on their
homepage and the images that we've seen he's showcasing all four. Having two
lightsabers as his base definitely makes sense it definitely was the right
decision but I think they should have leveraged his use of all four light
sabers a little bit more. So what game mode is Grievous best for so I think
Grievous is pretty good for Heroes vs Villains and Hero Showdown he
can be a very good accomplice in those do game modes. It was leaked before that he
wouldn't be too great in galactic assault the main reason for that is
because of his lack of stamina so I probably wouldn't suggest he'd be your
go-to hero or you'll go to villain for for that mode. But heroes vs villains and
hero showdown he's pretty good in I've livestreamed him twice now being
General Grievous in Heroes showdowns and heroes villains and it was
a pretty cool experience takes a little while to get used to him and getting
used to his his abilities but I think those are the two game modes where he
really does shine. And so that's all for the
the video on this review on General Grievous I just made it short and snappy
for you guy.s If this is the first time you're watching my channel content
then please consider subscribing. I do quite a lot of battlefront 2 videos
and will be covering general grevious quite a lot in the coming weeks and thanks for
joining and I'll see you guys the next battlefront 2 video

that I had.
Not only did I meet the founder, but I was able to chat with some of the people that
would be on the account as well and hearing from your existing clients and your past clients

So far we're seeing more conversions than we were in the same previous period and saving
more money, so, so far so good.

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina: Review & Analysis - Duration: 12:49.
Happy Halloween! So in the spirit of the holiday and also because it just came out
today I'm going to review the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina alludes and it's definitely inspired by a
series of horror-ish titles like Beetlejuice, The Craft, An American
Werewolf in London, Jeepers Creepers etc but its horror label is not right.
It is mildly spooky in certain parts - there is a scene about cannibalism, some eerie
representations of Satan - but generally its most uneasy parts have nothing to do
with witchcraft or satanism, but rather in the way it showcases America's
inability to come to terms with its puritanical past and the way in which
people from both the mortal and the magic world are silenced in an attempt
to keep the status quo - which is in itself fairly political. It definitely
shares similarities both in its atmosphere that in its folklore with
American Horror Story. If you watched and enjoyed the 2015
indie horror movie The Blackcoat's Daughter featuring boat Shipka and Emma
Roberts, you'll definitely like the chilling Adventures of Sabrina. However
in comparison to Shipka's role in that movie and her most famous role that of
Sally Draper in Mad Men sometimes her representation of Sabrina falls a little
flat in certain crucial points and that is because in those roles Shipka is very
good at being and looking mischievous, but Sabrina requires a more fierce presence
that Shipka is still trying to fully embrace. I've seen that the show is being
compared by a lot of people and reviewers alike to Buffy the Vampire
Slayer. Now if you follow my channel you know that I'm a huge fan of Buffy and
during the years I have seen many shows being compared as the new Buffy but
simply because this show deals with the supernatural and it features a female
blonde lead that doesn't make the show as brilliant as Buffy was. There are
definitely similarities. For example Sabrina adopts
the same monster-of-the-week structure which Buffy adopted in earlier seasons;
there is a level of campiness which was typical of 90s supernatural shows like
Buffy and Charmed, specifically in its demons.
You have the city of Greendale with its mines that acts as a sort of Hellmouth.
However these and many other homages that the series incorporates in its
storytelling are more a representation of how the series still needs to find
its tone. In the first season it did borrowed quite a lot from very different
sources and that makes it sometimes a little bit derivative. But the show
definitely managed to elevate the typical teen witch story showcasing a
fictional world where witchcraft isn't just a plot device to deliver cheesy
one-liners but an actual power that causes each character to question,
challenge and sacrifice itself. In that sense, with more focus and a clearer
direction, the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina has potential to be a more
original series with an interesting heroine leading it. Alternatively, although it
is technically a reboot from the very popular 90s serious Sabrina the Teenage
Witch, it is so different in tone content and aesthetics that apart from very
basic characteristics taken from the Archie comics they have very little in
common. Sabrina the Teenage Witch was mostly a sitcom with silly magic and dorky
but also awesome characters and it should have been scoffed out back in the
90s it was an original view of the stereotypical kind of super-powered
witch. In the Chilling Adventures, Sabrina is much darker and rebellious. This shows'
representation of magic is more aligned with the medieval and renaissance
concept of witches which were believed to receive their powers from dark
sources. Salem, the feline familiar of Sabrina is not a smart-ass animatronic
anymore but rather a demonic and quite spooky figure which takes the form of a
cat. I like both versions of Salem the problem is exactly that he is my favorite
character and in the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina he's pushed aside
and has very little screen time. I need the cat to have more screen time.
It seems like its typical sidekick role has mostly been occupied by Ambrose
Sabrina's cousin, which is a very interesting character both in the
challenges that he faces and there are far more difficult to portray as he is
literally confined in this Spellman's house, and the depiction of his sexuality
or rather pansexuality. One of the most positive aspects of the Chilling
Adventures of Sabrina is indeed its progressive casting and representation
of diversity. Since the pilot, the Chilling Adventures frames social issues
as a central part of the show: women's rights, challenging the patriarchy,
creating an inclusive space for non-binary and sexually fluid characters,
are placed at the forefront of its narratives. Sabrina deals not only with
the consequences of her duality - being half-witch and half-human - but also with
the limitations that she encounters as a teenage girl and that she soon realize
are inherent of both of the worlds in which she lives in. Pretty much every
woman in the series is limited in either scope, power, identity or possibilities by
an authority male figure. The girls in the high school are limited in their
development by the headmaster; Sabrina's friend Susie' identity is continuously
questioned by bullies; Prudence and the Weird Sisters' actions are engineered by
the High Priest; and Satan itself is clearly depicted as the ultimate patriarch.
Aunt Hilda recounts of how back in her days young witches didn't have much
choice in delivering themselves to the Dark Lord and in an odd legal
case against Sabrina, one of the persecutor's main points is that she
couldn't refused now the Dark Lord because of the way that she was dressed back then.
When Sabrina snaps at her aunts saying that she "had worse done to her"
referring to her inability to consent in a specific circumstance that echoes the
way that the #metoo survivors have said to feel like. Likewise in this scene -
the term 'witch hunt' evokes the language which has been used to delegitimize
the #metoo movement. In this sense, the show aesthetics aim to be timeless but
most of its core messages are definitely rooted in the present. Sometimes the
show's progressiveness is a little bit too literal specifically in the first
episodes - which is by the way a problem of over-reliance on exposition which is
evident in many other areas of the show - however to completely disregard the
relevancy of the times in which we live in as I've seen done by some
commentators claiming that they "came for the entertainment not the propaganda",
it's quite preposterous. It is exactly in its binomial representation of
witchcraft and femininity that the show puts forward important questions
regarding the grand narratives of the series.
By linking the cultural and supernatural elements the Chilling
Adventures of Sabrina moves flawlessly in key themes about questioning
allegiance, power and corruption as a way to achieve self-awareness and real
communal spirit. It is not a mere good versus evil story, but rather a
rebellious coming-of-age story that makes Sabrina reject inherited traditions
which eventually lead to conflict between its characters and its
communities like the coven.
Most of its supernatural analogues stem from old injustices - what
has been done to a certain group of people in certain parts of the town like
in the woods or in certain times. Crimes were committed exactly because of the
way in which the system has been designed and perpetrated. Sabrina rebels
against this oppression in both worlds as a way to depict her own worth and
exercise her individual power. That's how witchcraft can become a
successful metaphor for female power. It is instead in its more simplistic
representations like its focus on the mortal world, the somehow
unappealing relationship with Harvey, and its more high school soapy elements, where
the show declines in quality. Harvey is supposed to be
Sabrina's one true anchor to the mortal world, but their relationship feels quite
weak, at best. Not to mention that because we are so focused on the more engaging
battles of Sabrina, the personal issues which can make Harvey a more interesting
character, such as his obvious lack of control which also stem from abuse, are
not as developed as they should be. There is an over-reliance in boring cliches
and tropes like the Mean Girls, the typical football bullies of the school,
the evil principal, etc. the Academy itself is treated more as a random plot device
which is always in the background and only used as a way to reinforce said
tropes. In its long list of inspirations the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina
forgot to recognize the relevancy of Harry Potter in its own representation
of the Academy. if the latter would be more similar to Hogwarts and would have
a pivotal role in making Sabrina stronger,
Sabrina's rise to power in the latest episodes would feel more credible.
The Spellman's house and mortuary is instead an incredibly interesting place which is
quite well examined in the first season. Specifically the co-dependent and
disturbing relationship between Sabrina aunts, Zelda and Hilda, which is
reminiscent of Cain and Abel story, gives Sabrina's world a much needed depth.
Depth which I feel is instead lacking in Riverdale - the show coming
from the same fictional world of Sabrina and that has been developed for
television by the same creator. He has said that Sabrina is more innocent than Riverdale
and my thoughts are exactly the opposite. Sure Sabrina doesn't utilize the same
hormone driven rhetoric between its high school characters as Riverdale does but
it does deal with far more adult themes. The shows share similar aesthetics,
similar over exposition, but the Chilling Adventures feel more grounded in its
darkness than Riverdale. That's why we could say that Riverdale and the
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina are somehow cousins but they won't necessarily share the same audience.

Jeep Wrangler JK Mammoth Front Adjustable Track Bar (2007-2018) Review & Install - Duration: 6:08.
The Mammoth Adjustable Front Track Bar is for those of you that have a 2007 to 2018
JK that are looking for a track bar that's going to allow you to completely recenter
the front axle underneath the Jeep after a lift kit has been installed.
As you know, when you lift your Jeep, that will shift the front axle a little bit.
There are some brackets that you can use to help shift it back, but they're also going
to change up your suspension geometry by changing the mounting point of one end of your track
bar.
That will also force you to change the geometry of your drag link in order to eliminate any
sort of bump steer.
So using a adjustable track bar that will mount to the factory mounts, leaving the factory
drag link as is, is going to ensure that you don't end up with any bump steer or any other
weird suspension geometry issues.
This is going to be very, very easy to install, definitely a one out of three wrench installation,
and we'll talk a little bit more about that in a just a second.
So, when you're looking at adjustable track bars, you're really going to find two main
categories.
One is going to be a style like this, that has factory style rubber bushings on both
ends.
And the other is going to be a style that has a heim style joint on one end.
That spherical style joint is going to provide a little bit more articulation.
So if you're somebody who has control arms that have spherical joints on them, you're
trying to get maximum articulation, maximum independent movement of either side of your
axle, then maybe you want to take a look at one of those other options.
However, they are gonna be a little bit more expensive.
If you're somebody who isn't really looking for maximum amount of travel, just want something
very strong, a little more budget-friendly, this choice from Mammoth is gonna be an excellent
option.
As for the construction, this thing is really all about strength.
It's going to be a nice beefy track bar.
It does have a bend and a flat spot here that's going to make sure that it's gonna clear the
front pumpkin [SP] no problem.
A little bit of a twist at the end here, just to make sure that everything fits and lines
up in all of the factory mounts as it should.
I already mentioned that it has a factory style rubber bushing here.
It also does have a steel crush sleeve, because as you may or may not know, a loose track
bar is one of the leading causes of wobble and especially of death wobble.
So you do wanna make sure you get this thing torqued down nice and tight.
In order to ensure that you're not going to squish the bushing, causing any sort of damage
to it, you do have a crush sleeve inside of that bushing, so very, very well-designed,
and they are gonna be matching bushings on those sides.
As far as the adjustability, this is adjustable while it's mounted on the Jeep, which is pretty
important.
It can take forever to adjust, measure, pull one end of this thing off, adjust, measure,
rinse and repeat the process trying to get the axle completely centered.
This way you can get this bolted up onto both ends here, loosen up the clamp, spin the adjuster,
and it will recenter the axle for you, making things a lot easier and a lot quicker to make
that adjustment, then you just have to tighten down your clamps.
This comes in at $130.
I think that's a really fair price for what you're gonna get here.
Again, if you want a track bar that has a spherical joint on one or both ends, you have
those options.
They are going to be a little bit pricier.
If you're not going to take advantage of the additional articulation you can get from one
of those styles of the track bar, then I think this one is going to be just fine for you,
and save you some money.
Now I'll have a member of the install team show you how you get this bolted up.
First thing we wanna do is support the front axle.
I'm gonna use some pole jacks here.
If you guys don't have pole jacks, you can use a jack and some jack stands.
All right, next we can start to remove the track bar.
There's an upper bolt and there's a lower bolt.
We're gonna need a 21-millimeter socket and a 21-millimeter wrench.
All right, we're gonna start off with the bottom bolt here.
Now, the back side of this bolt does have a flag nut on it, so we don't have to hold
it with the wrench.
We can zip it out with the impact gun.
And again, this is a 21-millimeter.
Okay, now we can remove the upper bolt, and we're gonna have to hold the back side of
this with a 21-millimeter wrench, and 21-millimeter socket.
And we can remove our stock track bar.
All right, now before we install our new track bar, we wanna take a measurement of the stock
track bar, and make it as close as possible to our new track bar.
So we wanna go center of the bolt hole, to center of the bolt hole, and that's gonna
give us 32.5 inches.
So we can measure our new adjustable track bar, and we're about 31.75 of an inch, so
we need to extend it a little bit.
All right, that looks good.
Yep, we're now ready to install our new track bar.
We're gonna get our new track bar installed now.
We're gonna start off with the upper bolt.
Get my nut started on the back.
All right, we can get our bottom bolt installed now, with our flag nut.
All right, we get these tightened up now.
And now we can tighten up the upper bolt.
And after you've adjusted your track bar to where you would like it, we can tighten up
the adjustment clamps here.
It's a 15-millimeter bolt.
All right guys, that's gonna wrap up our review and install of the Mammoth Front Adjustable
Track Bar.

Measure your airtime? | Shredmate mountain bike computer review - Duration: 11:47.
hey it's Eric with Ride Labs and today we're going to talk about the Shred mate
and I'm here with Steve and Tom and Trevor what's up
so the Shred mate is this thing these guys are out of the UK and this thing is
going to measure Tom's airtime so supposedly it's going to be able to tell
us each jump he hits how long he's in the air
for and then it will allow him to kind of compare this run with his previous
run and see how he did and how he's improving it also gives you your
g-forces so I guess you want to be more smooth right when you're landing and not
all rough and so I can tell you you know this jump was a little rough you can
improve here and there supposedly so we'll see how it works we're really
excited to try it out so first thing we'll do is install it on Tom's fork
here you put it on the drive side we're gonna put it like this and it's gonna be
like super close like we have to crank this thing in really really close Tom's
like what are you doing to my bike man its pristine shocks we're gonna spin it
in after the fifth wheel turn it should light up and I don't see it lighting up
okay so it could be on and we just didn't see the light so what we're gonna
do now is pull up your app connected new sensor.. yeah oh so it already has a name so
I guess it writes the name into the sensor it looks like so if it doesn't
take okay if it doesn't and you have to reset things you have to let it sit for
two minutes right on so I guess we're all set
unfortunately I can't ride with these guys I wrecked my knee I'm gonna shuttle
them up there so they can get a couple rides on levitate and we'll see how it
does measuring the airtime so here we go all right here's our shuttle mobile you
guys ready all right wherever the top he just gave the wheel
five spins let's shred yeah except I read all that before
oh good you're up all night studying that oh, you have to read to the bottom
show my location? yes so we're good go back to shred mate
I see numbers try like rolling forward and just make sure that hold this yeah
it's not happy numbers oh no no it is we got miles per hour
sweet I think we're good awesome okay well wahoo here we go guys levitate
the way Tom all right
here we go dropping into levitate
hey interesting results that's like and see
so I just pulled this up and this shows the whole ride it's the overview okay so
you can see levitate shows me my max jump oh so your biggest air time or
whatever it has that first hip jump that's a fun
max g-force and then it gives you down at the bottom here distance max jump
airtime and max g-force and then speed I'm assuming that's current speed yeah
like if yet it/this mounted someplace yeah okay jumps so it looks like it recorded
10 jumps which that's not right there's got to be at least 50 on there I think
when we counted among well and maybe there's a threshold because a lot of
those are just like you're going over a rise and if you're going fast enough you
can leave the ground for a little bit okay me were you not jumping okay well
okay they were there the 10 biggest so does it have your total airtime for like
the run I guess you get add those up good add these up it's not be nice if
they could just give us the if you through these it'll navigate you to
where it was on the trail and then we have g-forces and it looks like these
are a little bit different results right because there's still 10 cool okay again
great
okay so I counted the jumps so that's a very
jumpy trail and my max jump and my g-force changed locations this time and
my max time was a little bit longer and then jumps it's still a record a
10/10 so I wonder if that's like it must be the 10 biggest (top 10)because they are
sorted by air time oh okay 3.7 G, that's pretty high
what's surprising me though is that that's not on... see it's on a straightaway
maybe on a jump or something, is that the drop off?
I would have thought that was on one of those berms
because you do a turn, then another turn, then you go down...
i dunno
and then telemetry
don't know if that's just when we were standing here yeah cuz look it's about
five minutes so that's where the ride ended and then we kept going so it's
flat while we've just been standing here while you click like stop or whatever
and see if that does any of save... okay so two rides total distance 3.1, max
g-force 3.7 max jump and then we have goals my jumps next badge set red so
that looks like seconds my next badge is at one second yeah it shows up there oh
when you hear one second jump then you go back yeah too bad we can't get up to
Deer Valley yeah oh and you can connect to Strava so then you can see
both your rides, click into one does okay so so far you do a lot of jumping would you
find value in the shred mate I would want to know what these numbers
mean okay I like I would want to look at this and say like how what does this
mean like does this mean I need to like turn better or like slow down I'm going
into a jump for speed up okay I really like the idea of the Shred mate
I just when I look all the data I just want to know what does it mean like tell
me what it means and how can you use it to improve okay cool
