How To Convert Your Bikes Bottom Bracket!

[@clarkesuperman]

This is the most underrated content on KZbin. Thanks for making my weeks better guys!!

[@michelletapiz6462]

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…

[@tnerbsg8134]

You're one of the only consistent BMX channels on KZbin. 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.

[@joninfiction]

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

[@FRANK-cents]

i read that wrong for a sec 😮 you did what to your wife 😳🤔🤦🏼🤣

[@Thatblackz28]

I do not miss the mid school days as a broke teen having to ride an American unsealed bb. Shits were annoying af.

[@xDarkAngelxc]

Facts!

[@jamesmatthew899]

fuck ik

[@tobsmonster2]

That’s me right now. I’m gonna buy this Rant kit

[@covom5281]

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

[@xDarkAngelxc]

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]

Same

[@ashtonjohnson2725]

Not the kink curb part I have an old gt

[@covom5281]

Same bro and I switched to sealed BB and got different cranks and sprocket

[@benmeneley4698]

Guys dudes r awesome , I'm gunna try and start a bmx restoration shop.... And a annual bike show in the summer , My collection is at about 20 bikes so far

[@adamg1948]

Let's see the clunker BB conversion. Oh, and nice informative video.

[@edwincastillo4017]

Yes to the beach cruiser thing at the end

[@Chefkhev]

Just did this mod to my #kinkbmx #curb2020bmx. Shaves like a pound of weight & improved the ride. Definitely worth the work & $$.

[@danieldejesus6988]

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

[@user-bs5qf4ge8n]

Needed this video bro, good looking out to you and the OG.🙌🏼You gained my subscription with all the dope content. Y’all stay blessed.🙏🏼

[@rk702]

Phu, I Hope you're getting paid for producing all this content. Thanks for the BMX build info.

[@ashtonjohnson2725]

Thanks man this helped me a lot I got confused a lot but I worked my way through it

[@cfmechanic]

Been waiting all day. Almost messaged to ask if your 👌

[@AlfredoMancuso]

Hahaha never doubt Thursday’s!

[@slangella3463]

This was vey helpful in me replacing a kink curb 2021 sprocket on same spindle type, did not have the right tools but made due , thanks!

[@jeramimachado383]

After building my dream bike I got to continue my hobby with building my wife bike. There's this rush with building up a bike.

[@skylarsoper241]

What about the centre spacer to keep the bearings for squishing in ?? 😎great vid fellas , good amount of lube humour and knowledge, but I always use the centre spacers 😎, keep em comin guys

[@CharlesD4rwin]

I noticed that too. Don’t skip the spacer!!!

[@covom5281]

I was wondering that too cause I’m about to switch to sealed bearings

[@loneleaf5487]

The air condition I'm dead lol, love your videos bro.

[@jeeprubicon6650]

This guy is funny. I’m learning and laughing. Cool!

[@AlfredoMancuso]

Rad to hear!

[@joelvideira5360]

Great video i was fixing an 50 year old bike ans i was in the same stage, thank you master PHU!

[@xcuatro]

Yes on the Klunker. Threadless fork conversion would be cool too.

[@IamdanimalFg4]

Upgraded to a guarded sprocket, Alf your videos are helpful… first big thing I’ve done on my bmx 😊

[@AlfredoMancuso]

Proud of you!

[@oldguyrips535]

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]

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

[@oldguyrips535]

@@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!

[@IamdanimalFg4]

@@oldguyrips535 dude I’m having trouble with aligning my wheel fuck hahaha. Facts i also wanna throw this shit away haha

[@liamrankin1263]

Finally I can convert my BB. Mines being doing weird things for awhile now and I’ve had no idea what to do.

[@natethegreat6553]

Yes

[@Lethargy01]

LOL that AC unit making more heat than cool! It must be at least 100F in there set up like that!

[@AlfredoMancuso]

Haha ive been trying to tell them 😂

[@nomdeguerre13]

sharp hairdo Phu....oh, the video is great too. Enjoy the casual format.

[@baryg3434]

Love the video. Very helpful

[@emmanuelgermain769]

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

[@TAUFIK6969]

This is what I was finding ❤❤

[@jvelle7251]

Yes please do a video on the clunker conversion 🙏

[@Gwatts78]

I got some stories about after hour parties and jeager miester machine at the local dive bar. 😂lol thanks for reminding me❤❤

[@monteritup]

Let’s see the klunker conversion

[@MrKingNica]

Yo Phu thank you so much for these videos. I'm just getting back in to BMX and freestyle bikes. Your videos are so helpful and insightful. So I need to get a more modern crank set correct for this to work on my 1991 Schwinn Predator Mag?

[@tataylarz1893]

Thanks for the information!

[@AbundanceRun]

Powerful content!

[@gavincarroll2553]

I actually in like 4th grade blew up the bottom bracket in my mongoose it was a Walmart bike but damn for being in 4th grade did I put that bike through the ringer and it was a full size 20 incher

[@juanvalle4766]

[@cfmechanic]

Sticker idea.. phu riding sheep 🐑😄

[@StreetDreamzTT]

Always wanted to do this to my mongoose. Also, would you guys be interested in doing a sealed headset conversion? My mongoose has cups on the frame where the fork and headset goes. I think they can pop out like the bottom bracket.

[@tonysheene6399]

Great video ! Yes do it on a one piece crank please !!

[@130ponce]

do you need to put the tube spacer?

[@javierortiz82]

Cool, now please teach me how to do this to a swiss bottom bracket.

[@jamessayers253]

1. Does he keep saying “Spaniard wrench“? 😆 2. Wished I had all those tools back in the day.

[@tnerbsg8134]

Hahaha YES I think he does. Haha. No judgement but, pretty funny. Spanner wrench yall.

[@BASSBOYDecepticon]

I was wondering if someone caught that

[@timmorten7000]

Back in the day We had dad's tools Dad's work shop And a will to learn about our bikes

[@garfieldfan3892]

[@fsuvilli]

Did he not use the tube spacer inbetween the bearings?

[@eezad4079]

Yeah Phu's not using it, he said in the earlier vid.

[@rlo_YT]

can you convert a euro bb to a say a mid bb can you just completely changed out to a mid set up?

[@xDarkAngelxc]

I forgot about those cups the bearings go into. I could not het those things out for nothing 😔

[@derrickray6351]

I have 1 question. I am a new biker looking into getting BMX bike. Is the Kink Curb a good bike? I think I'll have this conversion done at the bike shop when I buy it

[@armyofwounds]

I think I’m more curious about Charles Dera in a bike shop. He riding?

[@jerebeardagreat4627]

What kind of gel does phu use?

[@AJ-od7mv]

7:50 dam, that was beautiful lol

[@bmxscape]

6:30 its called a pin spanner

[@Midschoolinc]

I noticed the spacer still on the workbench after the new. spindle was inserted, i'm guessing absolutely NO ONE uses those things huh ? LOL

[@AlfredoMancuso]

No one 😂😂😂

[@jonjon9270]

Hey Alf what size bmx frame do you recommend for me I’m 5’10 195 lbs trying to get back in the bike!!

[@angels9615]

20-21 inch, just ride taller bars

[@angels9615]

you’ll most likely be good on average sized bars tho

[@mikehagen3785]

From my experience, your a 20.75" top tube, 8.5"-9" rise bars on a top load neck kind of guy..
