    You forgot how to replace the tube by slightly inflating it prior to remounting it. You should also suggest to your beginninger audience to carry an extra tube and pump.

    Beginners who buy department store bikes won’t have the convenience of quick release.

    WTF? Did I somehow black out from boredom and miss the part where he “put a new tube on”? Should rename the video, How to: Look Like A Douche. It’s kind of catchy.
