Giving this Mom MTB a Parts Bin Overhaul, and damaging it in the process 😬
Liv is Gian’t Women’s line, and this bike is a Liv Hail (it’s a little like a Giant Reign). It arrived with a number of issues, including really rough linkage bearings. I’ve never serviced the linkage on a Giant MTB before, which will be evident by my careless removal of the thru bolt in the center of the rocker link.
In the end, I replaced the link, installed all new bearings in the frame, and snagged a whole lot of upgrades from the parts bin. We also copped some pretty decent parts to use on future flip bikes, including a 160mm shock.

This was also the first time I used that headset press from Wheels MFG. The quick release “nut” is a lifesaver! https://wheelsmfg.com/presses-tools/headset-tools/headset-press-pro-install-kit.html
RRP Bearing installation and removal tools will depend on what linkage you have, so you need to order the correct size for your bike https://www.rapidracerproducts.com/products/tools/bpet.html
