My 9 yr old is a BMX-ER. Dude…I am the mom Mechanic and I couldn’t do it without ya. This video is so helpful. Thanks! Can’t wait to drop on one day…

You're one of the only consistent BMX channels on RU-vid. I love your content but as a racer, it would be AMAZING to see you build a race bike, or even talk about them more for other people out there. I know I'm asking alot since its not your forte, but you're one of the best. So it'd be cool.

I did this to my wife’s bike. Such a fun project.

Yeah I just switched my kink curb to sealed BB best decision I ever made

@dajam9035 3 года назад

I had a kink curb. I do not miss that bottom bracket at all man. Funny thing is, I managed it without all those tools he used in the video. I did it all with a wrench, allen keys and a flathead.

@ashtonjohnson2725 11 месяцев назад

@danieldejesus6988 3 года назад

I did this to one of my old bikes, it had open bearings and every time it broke I’d take it to the shop then I wouldn’t see my bike for over a month, then my friend upgraded his bottom bracket so he gave me his old sealed bearings and cranks and never again did I go to the bike shop, plus they went out of business

@oldguyrips535 3 года назад

I did the same about 2 weeks ago, was a lot easier than I was expecting! I did the a Shadow Sabotage sprocket, new brake line, Stolen Rampage free coaster, Kink Williams tires, Stranger Quan grips, and new plastic pegs all in one shot.

@IamdanimalFg4 3 года назад

@@oldguyrips535 damn lol. I actually didn’t install the sprocket right. I had my local bmx shop tell me what i did wrong

@oldguyrips535 3 года назад

@@IamdanimalFg4 it's all part of the learning process! I'd rather have someone tell me what I did wrong than completely ruin something I just spent some hard earned money on. I'm pretty mechanically inclined when it comes to bikes, but I still have a lot to learn. Out of EVERYTHING on a bike I hate doing, the worst for me is chain tension and wheel alignment... I'm awful at it, it takes me forever, and I end up swearing up a storm at my bike, lol!

Having a conversation about lube with Charles Dera. That's like the shop's name it's "epic". He could probably teach you more about lube than a lube salesman lol
