ST. PAUL, Minn. (BRAIN) — Park Tool announced it has surpassed 100,000 subscribers to its YouTube channel, where viewers can learn how to tweak, adjust and fix their bikes from Calvin Jones, the company’s director of education and master mechanic.
“A few years back we made a conscious decision to offer bike repair help and product information for free on our YouTube channel. Our goal was to take away the intimidation of working on a bike and show that it is much easier to do than people think,” Park Tool owner and president Eric Hawkins said. “We have a wide range of videos geared toward both the home mechanic and the professional. We hired three full-time people to help produce these videos and we are more than thrilled that over 100,000 people have subscribed to our channel.”
The Park Tool YouTube Channel has had more than 14 million views of the 414 videos on the site, with viewership in more than 190 countries.
