In this video I break down how I buy mountain bike parts cheap—without ending up with the wrong thing (or junk). The big idea is simple: I don’t just shop “where,” I shop “when.” If you’re patient and you know what to double-check, you can save a ton on the stuff that normally hurts the wallet the most—like tires, upgrades, and even complete bikes. I’ve had really good luck using eBay for tires, but I’m serious about one thing: you’ve gotta double check size and specs before you hit buy. For new parts, I keep an eye on Jenson for closeouts because that’s where I’ve found some crazy deals when stuff gets cleared out. And if you’re hunting bigger-ticket items, The Pro’s Closet is a solid option for complete bikes—just know that with any used marketplace/service it can be harder to find your exact size compared to buying the standard way. Cheers, and have an awesome day!
