Me gustan mucho si pq Yo tengo una Bicicleta GT California Aniquelada Antigua Y con esos Aros A ver

You happen to know if you can just buy the rear hub assembly?

Interesting video and good to see an experienced and knowledgeable person talk about it. I don't share all of your preferences, but i welcomed listening to them hoping to improve my setup which drives me mental. I think the U-brake setup is fundamentally flawed still, and there's still ZERO discussion about rim surfaces being the main contributor of braking performance, which is something that the bike trials world has known for decades. Though Odyssey are really the only ones who have done something about it, but yet it's still not where it needs to be imo. I ride in a mixture of environments being from the UK. It's moisture heavy or dry air week to week, and can be dusty or clean too. This plays havoc with consistent braking. Thanks for the video

Damn, thought the tip was gonna be look both ways b4 you cross the road..

Wouldn't it be easier to just have a religious enlightening and start believing in chain tensioners again? You do realize tensioners died in the 80's for our sins and rose again 30 years later to show us how easy life can be and hardware stores are the work of the devil?? Find the path of enlightenment sir and your soul will be saved with the rest of us☠️

I love the cat

Great tip! What are you running there with a coaster brake and such a small driver?

Will the washers add width of your hub whereby the hub no longer fits into the drop outs?

That actually makes so much sense. Thank you!

Thank you man😀

Nice bike

Is the Jb one any lighter than the ACS do you know ? Cheers

Really?

Make more videos please

You mean a hundred quid.

Did you remove some of the lower part of the steer tube for extra clearance? I have pitchforks with a large hole drilled in them but I thought about cutting the backside of them for more cable clearance

I know this video is 4yrs old but what kind of bike is that

Nice smooth riding.

Gonna have a "Oh ffs shut up TJ" moment. A few things to point out and I'm going to preface this by saying I will put my front brakes up against any other riders at any point in time in the history of flatland and be confident they'll either be among the best or come out on top: 1. You absolutely do not need to use grease at where the cable enters the housing. If you do this it will eventually attract and build up gunk which reduces the lifespan of the cable. Putting a tiny tiny tiny pinch on where the cable sits in the lever is fine but that's it. 2. The ferrule cap puts even pressure on the housing and stiffens up the pull. You should absolutely put it on. What you should do is make sure the metal inside of the housing is trimmed evenly all around, and open up the teflon housing a tiny bit with a piece of brake cable so that neither interfere or rub against the ferrule. If you do this your brakes will pull much smoother and be much stiffer, the housing won't deform in the barrel, and it will just last longer. 3. If you have to use a zip tie you cut your cable and housing to the wrong length. If it's cut correctly the cable will not hit your tire when you scuff or squeak while it hangs loose. I usually warm up with pedal hang 5 pinkie squeaks where my left foot is what i use for scuffing so if this was an issue I'd feel it immediately. I would avoid using tri-flo. It's really not that great of a lube for brakes and tends to get sluggish over time. I'd recommend this: www.amazon.com/Rock-Cable-Magic-Lubricant-1-Ounce/dp/B000IQEC0U/ref=sxts_sxwds-bia-wc-drs-ajax1_0?cv_ct_cx=cable+magic&dchild=1&keywords=cable+magic&pd_rd_i=B000IQEC0U&pd_rd_r=a613d472-8db1-4675-ba31-1ac0fdf86426&pd_rd_w=okPTX&pd_rd_wg=fRMrh&pf_rd_p=037ca9fd-790e-4a16-836b-14da89aed20e&pf_rd_r=BN84CDGWWA8HY2RPXHG8&psc=1&qid=1601837230&sr=1-1-25b07e09-600a-4f0d-816e-b06387f8bcf1 Vigorously shake it up before dripping a bit down the housing. A little bit goes a long way and it lasts for years. I rode the same brake cable from 2012 to 2015. Put my bike in the garage and pulled it out this year and my brakes still worked well all things considered. I should probably do a video on how I set up my front brakes.

Hi mate, my sprocket on skyway 2 is different to the one shown here. It’s more the old style with a lock pin on it and when u remove the lock pin the sprocket comes off. My sprocket is slipping when I pedal. Is it possible to take off the mechanism behind the sprocket? It keeps turning when I try to remove it and looks like there is a special key needed to remove it. Cheers :)

Are skyway rims supposed to be silent

1985 the plastic hubs were introduced

good vid dude, is the evo 2 brake better than the first one . is a Odyssey Linear K-Shield Cable not good for a front brake thanks brian

Like those wheels 👍👍

Hej bro why does my rear wheel skip when i pedal like sometimes a lot sometimes litle bit with same wheels u got here

Love the odyssey freq G tires on there too!

40yrs old julst bought a 26" Se blcok flyer. thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wise words. You can never have too much lubrication on a brake setup.

i used to love bmxing so i decided after 10 years to just buy one. ive had many mountain bikes but nothing beats a bmx! bought it today. fell of it hurt my elbow and smiled brought back good memories :D

Good video brother.

Great video thank you so much I’m practicing manuals I’m gonna angle them back a bit

I run a Brickhouse Bikes stem that I bought in 2002 and I would like to have it last even longer,so these tips will help me.Its a great stem. Thanks for these vids😎✌👍

Great video mate. I’m looking at getting back on a bike after a 16 year break, I’m 6ft tall and 250lb, just mainly wanting something to ride around with my kids, pop a few manuals around the place, and also take it to the local dirt tracks and ride around (no jumps). I live in New Zealand and the local market doesn’t seem to have the hugest range, what size/style bike would you recommend?

Great stuff man! sub to my channel i post fishing/bmx/vlogs im from dallas texas i subbed to you!

Thanks a million you gave me the One answer I was looking for , I ride street and use 175 mm it feels weird so I'm switching to 165 mm instead and Problem solved... 👍

Great how to. I followed your tips and my front break is working better than ever. Is there anything to keep in mind when setting up back brakes, using a Gyro, and dual lower cables? Thanks

Nice how to!

I'm trying to find out how to remove the axle on this kind of wheel to regrease or replace the axle.

cool
