BMX Buyers Guide: Everything To Know About Seats!

[@tugboat8475]

A little tip for the big bike riders, buy another rail seat post, then buy your self a Gel road bike/Mountain Bike seat. Amazing comfort and they look great. Specialized make heaps. So long bike trip, pull your bmx seat and pole out, put the road/trail seat pole in.

[@robertlee8400]

Yup I like a flagpole seat post , but with all these pivotal seats anymore it’s hard to find something that was like the Revcore flagpole seat post like back in the day , however I did find a Odyssey layback 25.4 mm that fits my 2023 Haro Ground Master & I went out & bought a Velo gel padded seat with the old school rail system . I had no problems with Velo seats with the rails back in the day so I trust them . The only thing about this seat post is I can’t pivot the seat up & down but it’s great were it sits on my bike , however I can move the seat forward & backwards to get it close to the bars if I need or sit it back towards the back of the bike , I guess you have to sacrifice something for something else with all these new school parts & I hate that , it was so easy to find & put parts on your bike back in the day , now it’s like you have to do your research & hunt for a part for your bike now-a-days .

one difference with pivotal seat brands is that some allow you to have more adjustment so your seat can point more upwards like you're chase hawk in 2006 (although not all seats look good when it looks like it's about to shoot a plane out of the sky)

[@reviewyourownadventure2083]

Advantage of rail seats is that you can adjust it forwards or backwards a bit, if you're someone that actually matters to.

[@AlfredoMancuso]

Big facts!!

Breaking in a new BMX seat is like breaking in a new pair of shoes 🗣️🗣️

[@fsuvilli]

Many winters ago, at a volume/demolition demo at my local bike shop, myself and a few others got free tripod seats during the product toss. At first we were very excited but after realizing what they were we very disappointed. We all asked if we could trade or even get a discount on a real seat. Fortunately they understood that nobody wanted the fake seat and traded for pivotals.

[@3rdWorldNola]

What's so bad about tripod? They're fine. Just a lot less options. But free is free?

[@eyeseayew189]

That oil slick post is dope

[@seanoc6284]

Thank you....this cleared up a lot of questions i have about BMX bike seats.

[@Devin.Brooks]

You guys should go over the 12”-18” bmx bikes and show the differences

[@AlfredoMancuso]

👍🏻

[@Random-user-tu2ez]

6" difference

[@XxLastWinterxX]

Tripod ftw!

[@BMXTV.]

Now there is even the stealth system

[@AlfredoMancuso]

Yes there is!

[@BlackTownie999]

That is true, I have a Primo Hemorrhoid (still funny) that I reupholstered with Jean material and the foam did feel quite a bit softer afterwards.

[@justinfriend9686]

I use tripod I like it a lot more because I like racing seats

[@jda79]

I got a seat post for my trust so now I have a post to put the Odyssey floral seat on my daughter's Nova

[@mccauleybacalla2228]

Thanks

[@davidsharp3110]

You got serious positive energy Alfredo!

[@MightAsWellBeMe]

That’s not Alfredo lol but yes he has great energy!

[@howiegruwitz3173]

I had a Shadow seat that was super soft and even flexible in the nose. They aren't all the same. Most are.

[@nattycup]

great thing you both do! how about a guide on bikeparts for big guys? i always wonder if the big and heavy guys use the same parts or different material etc

[@x88868]

Same parts, just different geometry. Get yourself a 22" BMX. BSD has long frames. 21.25 20" BMX would be another option.

[@estebanquito6652]

Hi and put pívot Seat in raíled IS posible?? Thanks

[@gakbrenti]

is there any long pivotal seatpost? 40cm or 60cm maybe?

[@trailwomanrc]

The pleather on my kink gap is a little hard.... thought I'd look into a softer seat. The fabric looks softer but like it may wear out quicker? Love seeing my bike in the videos!

[@echterjay]

Your Videos are sooo good tysm

[@jrkawasakiz149]

I would like that Chrome layback seatpost 4 my old school bike. How do I get that my stores around here don't have it?

[@buffboyzauto]

I bought an Eclat woodland camo seat and it hurts on my volume thrasher build. I’m 6’1 250lb and looking for the softest pivotal seat. Any suggestions

[@SavageAudits]

Stand up.

[@buffboyzauto]

@@SavageAudits I’m not gay

[@MorbidThrasher666]

Pivit deez nutz,lol. Phu low key likes the tri-pod,lol

[@Elmuchacho17]

Hey guys! Great videos! Looking for some advice, I got given a GT El Centro, needs tidying up….am I best cleaning it up as best I can and replacing the parts with the same parts or ok to change levers etc to other brands? Repaint? Change out the old grips to a different brand? What’s your advice? Thanks!!!

[@Wepen935k]

Damn Epic inventory is stacked! You guys got everything

[@jakjohn672]

got the seat Alf picked in blk I hope primo makes sum new parts cuz they always fire been a min

[@pauljames1978]

I’ve always stayed Pivotal seat and post Miles more options 🔥👍🚲💨

[@randycollins2607]

🤘😎 just got some of my build parts.

[@x88868]

I wish more railer seats existed.

[@rhondakaradunis4894]

Do you still have that seat post

[@eddiestone7610]

I disagree with they’re all the same (pivotal seats). The BSD logo ones are way softer than most of the other ones. At least from my experience. Also I have the Merritt Casey Starling and it too was more soft than say like a Federal one. I actually had the Federal Roses seat and it was hard as a rock. What’s screwed up is they say it’s soft and comfortable in the description in Danscomp. It’s definitely not! And the bottom of the pivotal Seats are mostly the same but Eclat make one that is different.

[@mikemenocal]

Whats up Brochachies!!!!!!!

[@GIBSONGASPER123]

You can explain very well but should give more time to the cameraman to focus/show the parts you mentioned. (the camera keep on moving left ,right , top & bottom non stop, the viewers will feel dizzy. You control the time/length of the video so that's no need to rush.

[@Create_o_raptor]

Roleplaying with phu😂😜

[@shaferstronghold]

We would really like to see your bike collection Phu! If you have any, I’m sure you do! Let’s see your bikes bro?

[@dropzilla8398]

Fu your gonna make it u explain so good dude

[@MrRayray1972]

Can a pivotal seat fit into a stealth seat post somehow? make a video if so.

[@joerodriguez7317]

Why doesn't a company make a dropper post like what's used for mountain biking?

[@howiegruwitz3173]

Let's start a real bmx company! Put hydraulics on the forks too!

[@karlovuja]

Yeah totally useless 🤣🤣🤣

[@RJMFTE]

Someone told me I should try to fit a dropper seat post to my bmx and I’m tempted to see if it would work XD

[@florentinohernandez0]

Lemme get that tan primo biscuit seat tho

[@cuz7055]

Where your store ar

[@potaylor9992]

Awesome as always, Hey Alf think it's time for a new mic. Picked up a lot of extra sound like a snake hissing. Just a FYI. Sorry no I ride bmx an dont use pivotal post I'm old I use guts an rails.

[@VAustin89]

Not a fan with tripods, love my rail and pivotal seats

[@owen687]

Long time no see

[@wesleysept6536]

I'm certainly not against pivotal, but personally I've came to appreciate " fixed"!

[@tempchannel3885]

PHU WHY DONT THEY MAKE LAIDBACK SEAT POST THAT MUCH ANYMORE?

[@eyeseayew189]

You serious?

[@429supercj]

I absolutely hate a fixed seat/post it will make me not buy a bike just because it's there. Rallied, pivotal, or even old school but never ever fixed.

[@alpinef1092]

So whats the difference in slim, mid, and fat? Mid and fat look the exact same

[@hvtechpc396]

First ❤️

[@ianybanez6884]

third!

[@MrKingNica]

No old school or mid school advise.

[@neilcarter8141]

Any wethepeople in your shop? If no, why?

[@SFletcherson]

"All the seats are the same..." He should of clarified that most seats come in different sizes slim, mid and fat...among those sizes YES they are the same. A fat seat is gonna be the same as another fat seat just different material and color choices and that goes for other sizes too.
