  • It sure can. Click on uBlock’s icon and choose the little eyedropper icon to enter picker mode. Then click on the shorts. In that window that pops up go to the part that says cosmetic filters and click on the top one. I don’t remember exactly which one will remove the shorts but just scroll through those until the shorts are highlighted with a red box. Then click create. That should get rid of them. Until youtube changes the element, which they do. I’ve had to re-do it twice so far this year.

    I’m not sure on your second question. You could try it and then delete it if you can’t watch them.








  • The amount of wear will be the same.

    You don’t want to drag your brakes though because they will heat up and fade if you’re on a long descent and brake fade is very dangerous on steep descents.

    Proper braking technique is brake right before any turns and then let off in the middle of a turn. You can brake a little after the turn also. You basically want your bike to roll as fast as it can and just control it before and after turns.

    You’re gonna want to train yourself to go faster though because the technique i describe will have you descending very quickly and most people fear brake in descents because fast descents can be very scary for the untrained.
