we get the four following myths:
BMX tires being actually directional
BMX tire treads not being compatible on different terrains for the ones they are originally designed for
BMX Inner tubes whether they're 18", 20", 24", 26" each size cannot be used in a tire of a different dimension
BMX Bikes are made specifically for trails, street, or park riding and you can't do one activity with the improper bike.

Watching these videos made me get a 24in bmx and start riding again. Thanks for making these videos.

@flyinsaucer138 Год назад

in my experience an oversized tube can be a bad idea but a smaller diameter will usually work

@clarkesuperman Год назад

Big time. Really hard to avoid pinch flats

@LUC.Knives Год назад

i use 18" tubes because they are a couple ounces lighter than 20" tubes. they are my budget Tubolitos lol

@timothyeichinger3592 10 месяцев назад

This is reassuring. Cleaning my basement today I found a few 26” tubes and I literally thought to myself “I wonder if I could just jam those in my 24” tires??🤔” well thanks, man!!

@matheuskutianski9195 10 месяцев назад

I did the exact same thing years ago (26 on 24s) and got 2 burst tubes as result. I think that smaller tubes on bigger tires arent a problem, but the inverse is'nt ok cause they tend to be fold in the tire.

@dethgripco Год назад

the bulging in the tube are the weak points of the tube, the rubber is thinner in those parts due to production causing the internal air pressure to push it out more, expanding it. same case with smaller tubes on bigger tires, although in works, it will pinch flat easier since the rubber is overstretched. when running over thorns and broken glass, the few micromillimeters of stretched rubber is a matter of getting the tire punctured or not.

@emanthegman9511 Год назад

So true, the smaller tubes also don't hold air as well as the wider tubes

@michaelevans6205 Год назад

I used to ride 26in tubes in the 20in wheel not recommended but definitely works till you can fix ya tube. Also used to use all sorts of random stuff for tires patches mostly duct tape tho it worked pretty well if you did it right.

@kyleyazzie3022 7 месяцев назад

@justin9605 Год назад

Thank you.

@VAustin89 Год назад

the tubes always gets me, 1.95 or 2.1 tubes are way too common and cheaper and most kids think it wont work with their 2.35, I'm like I run 2.5 with these tubes with no problem.

@emanthegman9511 Год назад

Yh Most of the common widths work but I did notice that the wider tubes hold air for longer, probably because they don't have to stretch as much as the narrower tubes.

@clarkesuperman Год назад

Having too much tube is the real issue. That’s where you’re going to get pinch flats because the rubber doesn’t have a good place to go under pressure.

@emanthegman9511 Год назад

@rberger81 Год назад

I am a beginner in BMX. So far, I have only ridden mountain bikes where the tire direction is important for water displacement, braking power, and, of course, rolling resistance. The inner tube is standardized to prevent it from becoming too thin, losing air faster, and being more prone to pinch flats. I have one more question: Are there tubeless tires available for BMX, and are there also dropper seatposts for BMX?"

@lconthebeat Год назад

i think some firm wanted to come up with tubless tires BUT i think they also said they are going to direct that towards racing bmx scene NOT FREESTYLE , i still havent heard anything of a rider that went tubeless on bmx street park trail etc. take it with a grain of salt but i think if the pros aint doing it yet i wouldnt , yet i saw this tubeless bmx presentation like 4-5 years ago so idk maybe they ve come up by now

@dethgripco Год назад

+1 on the tube size. as for tubeless tires, the new products of Alienation rims and tires are tubeless compatible. but rarely do you see anyone using them, if ever, they are best recommended for park use. Mike Fede YT has dabbled on in IIRR. dropper seat is never an option. on the mechanism alone, it wouldnt fit on a seat tube. BMX bikes are more on shaving off weight, a quick release seat clamp is the best option. although most new frames has standardized welded on seat clamps.

@Cheesicle_ Год назад

pretty much any tyre is tubless compatabale but rims need some work. but dropper seat post for a bmx? nahh why

My fav mash up is race bikes on dirt and street i need that speed. Just got that shadow chain breaker, i would like to see lube myths what can be used in a pinch example i cleaned and lubed freewheel with lighterfluid might make a fire video.

@clarkesuperman Год назад

Kerosene is one of the best things to use for cleaning but I don’t know about lube lol you might want to put something else on there but the kerosene won’t cause rust or oxidization

@Slowks420 Год назад

Do bmx need reflectors I got pulled over for not having any but I had both my back red light and front spot light at it’s brightest

@clarkesuperman Год назад

Depends on your area and the bylaws in that jurisdiction. Some places are more strict. My town requires lights and a bell. Reflectors are optional but only having reflectors at night is not good enough

@GTRacingblog88 Год назад

I have a 1.5 inch set if odyssey t-1000. 1.75" tire and 1.75" tube. They don't fit together. The tube is too fat. All your explaining just goes over 99% of guys heads. I believe you vu. But why doesn't my tube fit in my rim if its any size fits any rim/tire??🤷

The tire tread direction will effect your speed. But if you wanted to climb dirt hills better, then flipping them the other direction would actually help in that case.

"myth 1" NOT a myth...yes, your professional grade chainbreaker will work a 1/2 link no problem, but most of the consumer versions (even the lower end Parks) will not even fit a halflink in between their rails

Hey Phuu I know why the tube inflate one place bigger then the other here the big secret your looking for when you put the inner tube croked the stem get croked i mean not straight so it gets inflated on one place bigger then the other and it can blow on that weak spot cuz you know tube is just a ballon lol
