What are you guys thoughts on video bike checks? I think they get boring and it's really annoying to see the camera shaking and zooming in on a part as they mention it. So I got an idea. I 'm pretty sure it's already been done. But it was a different way to do a video bike check. Talk about a bit of the bike then riding clips then more bike and so on. For example, frame2 ,riding clips, front end,2 riding clips, seating & wheels, 2 riding clips, drivetrain, then end with 4 or 5 riding clips. And go into detail too, such as bars are whatever, higher bars are easier on my back, and I cut them to xx inches cause it's how i've always rode etc etc...

What do you guys think of that?

And would anyone be willing to edit it for me if i send them the clips?

I see video bike checks are ideal if you want to throw in riding clips and don't want to get into too much detail about stuff like BB headset, etc.
My friends bike check ended up on the Subrosa site, he's good friends with Simone.

Try to put in some effects without overdoing it and try to use some good quality camera, no one likes stuff filmed with a potato.

I don't mind them if they are actually done well, edited well, and have some riding clips.

It's true though, a nicely filmed edit appeals more to the viewer.

I prefer checks where you see the person build the bike. Also i quite like it when the person who has built the bike does a little run down on the parts they ride & why they ride them & actually know what they are talking about! I wouldnt mind trying a video bike check when the Benny is all sorted out.

Bike checks when pros do them are cool, it gets the public pumped to buy the parts they're running. It's more advertising the parts when pros are involved. Riders in general like to see what their favorite rider is rolling on. When average joe's like you and i do them it's less likely to get some kid watching to be pumped to buy so and so frame, part, whatever...

Is what is though. I don't mind watching a bike check no matter who's it is. As long as you give good reviews and feedback on the parts you're riding it'll be a good, informative bike check. There are viewers that are curious to know other rider's opinion on a certain part and that itself will make any check worth making. Go for it bro.
