Imagine James pumping up the tire with the pump and saying “buffeting”

James May makes me RELAX

Only james may could turn pumping up a tyre into an 8 minute video

This is really for numbskculls

I see deer in my rear view mirgghhh

Thank you for this very informative video. Until now i'tires

When you really need to hit that minimum word count requirement on your essay

Only May could be so incensed by a dust cap. 😂

Does anyone know why James calls his Orbea orca? Is there back story to this like Bim?

i’d love to see a tour of all the bikes he has collected over the years

lol what a goober

What's left of the Toy Stories Meccano motorcycle in the background.

The mechano motorbike in the background!

mate, schrader valves aren´t usually used on mountainbikes. i wish it was so because presta valves break to easily ( if you are not carefull) they are mainly used for dirt jumpers or bmx bikes because they are subjekt to more hard usage and usually less maintenance.....

next up: how to brush in foodtribe

If you're going to use a brush to clear out a valve I suggest you turn the wheel so the valve is at the top. Dust will then have gravity's help to fall out. I'd have thought James May would have known this..... And the same applies to pumping the tyre up - move the valve to the top so you don't have to bend down to attach the pump.

Dust cap!!!!!!

Stiffle action? This guy .

James, you forgot to tell us how much pressaure you need. An difference between Psi and bar.

Suddenly realised I need a stirrup pump 👍

3:05 and 3:25 the best of the best

I bought a bunch of extra dust caps, just so I never go without

Season 21, episode 5. He still hasn’t given up on that bicycle safety thing.

Let's have a real laugh ... can James show us how to do a tubeless conversion on that mountain bike without spilling a drop of sealant.

Even tho the videos simple. I still learned some things about bike tires and pumps. Great video 🤟🏻

Suprized to see you running Tubular tyres on the road bike James

Thats a nice bike you got there James

So random

I hear that tune every time I fill up my tyres.

This is actually exactly the video I needed for my city bike. I just aggressively randomly perform actions with various pumps at my disposal until my wheel has air.

oh come oooon... please...

If he mountain biked then he would know that all high end mountain bikes use presta valves these days.

*C H E E S E*

Haha, always wondered what the official title of that small inner pocket was.

I saw this and died laughing, love it

It would of been interesting to see one of the old bicycle pumps with the pull out flexy connector in the pump handle. 😊.

it would be a complete outro if james also mentions to ring that dang bell.

Watching james pump up tires is way more entertaining than the entire top gear series since they got fired

One tip I learnt aged 10...when parking and securing the bike, it's worth rotating the wheels so that the valves are hidden from view, for example at the top end of the forks or between the brakes...in case wandering ferals or chavs enjoy deflating your tyres while you're in the shop buying liquorice or chuggy.

I enjoying riding my bicycle, I have 4 of them.

After you blow out the dust with a compressor - use the compressor with appropriate adapter to pump up the tire.

Instructions unclear, swallowed the dust cap

Britain's answer to Joe Budden.

Michelin presta inner tubes don't have the knurled lock ring at the bottom on them, look much better... 👌🏼

This video is shorter than I expected.

i'll watch James May talk about how to put on your socks and it'll be a great content.

James may is funny even when he’s not doing anything funny

"Remove it smartly"

“Put the dust cap in your mouth” Bet it should taste wonderful after all the stuff that wheel been through

Believe it or not, I perfectly understood every single word James said. 🤣

Let James May teach you how to pump up a bicycle tyre ❌ Let James May teach you how to obsess over dust caps ✅

I don't even have a bike, but I watched the whole thing

The Presta valve was invented by a frenchman actually

I can completely rebuild a bike or custom build ond from a frame but i wanted to watch this video anyway

So glad I see deer has lived on.

...liked, subscribed, commented 👍

I don't get why he finds that song so interesting....hahaha

As a child I used to steal nice dust caps from cars, still have the collection if you want to 'un standard' them bikes 😂

Why didn't you let James discuss pressures endlessly, I have no doubt he wanted to

Come on, Mister Slowly. You were cool boring in the past, but now you are just boring boring.

so James may, Aka captian slow, has one of the fastest road bikes in the world

Great looking road bike Mr May....but toe clips??? Whats the matter with you man, get some clipless pedals on there.

Act your age, get a car.

Well I learned something today or I was dreaming, I can't tell for sure, but thank you James!

Only James is allowed to ride an orca with zipp wheels with STRAPS!?

James, clipless pedals. Do it!

Cycling enthusiast? No, James may enthusiast

Love that I see deer is now the unofficial theme tune 👍

"Universal ends" are actually really horrible. I'd love a pump with a dedicated presta or schrader end and end the always suboptimal seal/fitment. And please remove the nut on your presta valve. If your tyre goes half flat and moves a bit in your outer tyre your tear the tube around your valve when pumping it up again.

I guess I learned something, Mr May!

this is my comment.

"Put the dust cap back on, you peasant!" That's just great!

I like how he still has the mechano bike

I use an electric pump at home and the Schrader adapter when necessary.

The IoM Meccano Sidecar in the background needs some air in the tyres.

that’s next weeks video

Why doesn't richard or Jeremy do videos on here

This man right here, bested Gordan Ramsey in a cooking head-to-head match. Out of five Ladies, 3 voted for this absolute beast of a man. I must study his ways

How to boil an egg, make toast, brush your teeth...you peasant! 😁

I'd like to see James May pump up the air on a car tire with that foot pump

Thanks Sir James. I was using bicycles for almost 30yrs and honestly I never knew there is a adapter for the feeder in the slim tyres

How dumb would you need to be to be .... oh year cyclists 😂🤣

As Jeremy says, cycles and the Lycra clad ignoramuses Should be banned and flogged at the stake

What are you on about, too patronizing? It wasn't patronizing enough!

James May : how to pump up a bicycle tyre Me : hemmm interesting

Why is James so skinny?

Just curious, James. What psi do you use on the road bike? When I was seriously biking I used 110 psi. What say you?

cheese

I’m always losing dust caps, either on car or bike but I’m not going to put them in my mouth!

The best content on NOlocal

I have no idea what I just watched, other than I see deer, I see deer in my rear view mirror?

Really? Pumping tires? We’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel now huh

As someone who worked in the bicycle industry for 15 years this was both painful and enjoyable at the same time. Mr. May could make watching paint dry or standing in line at the post office enjoyable.

6:11 *feet*

Thanks 👍

When is Tom's son's birthday? James has been working on this bike for a couple months now hahah.

People who don't use dust caps are psychopaths Edit: I notice James has one of those new fangled electronic scooters, can he even use it now with the Tories making then illegal.

I didn't know you could make a 8 min video on how to pump a tyre.
