great looking bike. who makes the stand you are using, can it also work on the rear tire.

It will also work on the rear tire. I have a few of them, it *just* fits a 2.5" wide tire Here is a link: amzn.to/3Vd4434

Cool bike. Can I ask how tall you are? I’m 6’1” and I haven’t ridden in years and I’m trying to gauge whether something like this would be too small for me. Thanks.
@thebikefam9 ай бұрын
I’m 6’1” This bike fits me great, especially with the slightly taller bars. I just put on. I’ll upload the video soon. Depending on how far you might ride, you might want a larger bike. But if you don’t plan to cruise far, this thing is awesome.

Hey, really appreciate your videos. I’m 52 and not sure if I should get this bike in 26” or 29” mostly I’ll do a short commute and cruising around Miami. Looking forward to you comparison video on all three bikes. I have a bike shop down the street with your exact bike but it’s a 29” I’m 5’10” $550 Thank you 🙏

OK! We will film a comparison and try to get it up by the weekend. They are all good bikes, and we have a lot to say about them. Hopefully it can help people make a choice. I sure couldn't!

Yeah, I’m sorry. We’ve had a lot going on. We should be recording a number of videos over the next few days, and start getting them up very soon.

@the bikefam I have a new GT pro series Heritage And everything on it is pretty good. I upgraded the brake pads that's it. All other parts a solid.

@@shanecarravello2922 it is a solid bike. I would still suggest the tires and the brake caliper. Most of the other stuff is preference or fit.

ok that one look really cool! is the 24-inch BMX large enough to sit and ride through the city with as well? I am 178 cm , 5'9 feet. so that one can actually sit down in the saddle and also commute 20-40 min over downtown here and there, and still feel relaxed in the hip and knees? I have a choice of 24 inch BMX or 27.5-inch Klunker BMX... I want one bike to do everything that is fun, as a novice, and play around town, sometimes drop down stairs or do a little jump but still get around town without lower back problems but still having fun.. I never get a 23 kilos Dutch bike in my life again.. just sold it.. I want my life to be fun when I am out n' about...

At 5’9” you probably can do what you’re asking. I’m 6’1” , and I don’t think a 40 minute commute is what I would want to do on this bike when I’ve got a 26” and a 29” available. Maybe 20 min.

@thebikefam7 ай бұрын
Feels faster, more stable, probably more fun to go off some jumps etc…. Haven’t tried it, but that bike feels like that’s what I should be doing on it. I like it a lot, but when I think of my bike clubs rideouts, I don’t think I’d want to do 15 or 20 miles on it.
@thebikefam7 ай бұрын
To be fair, there are guys that ride 26”. There are guys on 20 inch bikes too. That’s just me, but when I’m pumping up the hill, the larger bike seems to fit me better. Just tearing around my immediate neighborhood, I think the 26 inch would be the one I pulled out all the time if it wasn’t my wife’s. 🤣
