His BB’s are good and correctly designed and manufactured, although it really isn’t hard, it’s just the bike industry trying to save pennies and 10g.
His bearing knowledge is correct
I don’t know enough about CFD to critique, however, what he says does make sense and matches what I have seen.
He very rarely backs up anything he says in a complete way, I suspect mainly because he’s used to working with competent people (in a certain field) where you can imply something and the rest is obvious to them. For instance when he’s rubbishing BB’s it makes complete sense to me as I understand bearings, however when he rubbishes someone’s aero/CFD then unless it’s very obvious I don’t get it. e.g. from latest video regarding energising the flow through the helmet vents is not obvious and I still don’t know why this is good?
Less swearing, more validation (other than “I am an expert”) would go a long way in my book, however, that’s not what always gets views as has been pointed out.
