You NEED a bottom race.. How to Install a BMX Headset!

[@BigBikeBMX]

This just saved me a bunch of time troubleshooting some old bearing issues. Thanks Bill 🤘

[@SupercrossBMX.]

Glad to help!! Hope you are out riding again!! Keep that wheel up!!

[@Jackbaker99]

Thanks for the video I didn’t know what the bottom race was for 😅

[@SupercrossBMX.]

Scary thing is how many calls we get asking if you need it!!

[@keithmartinez07]

I’m trying to put a answer carbon dagger 🗡️ fork on a newer integrated head tube but I think this is what I need a bottom race. It’s a 1-1/8 fork and wanted to make sure this dagger fork is installed in a fairly new frame.

[@SupercrossBMX.]

If you have an Integrated headtube, pick up a Speedline 1 1/8" -1.5" Headset, use the adapter race enclosed and you should be good!

Entendi 👍

Doesn't the bearing catch a little on the split race?

[@SupercrossBMX.]

No, it is a sealed bearing, nothing to catch on

[@stephantvansteen8488]

No more then 3/4 " on the jr/expert fork steer tube !

[@CKilger12]

I mean you could have pulled one of the frames off the wall to demostrate :)

[@SupercrossBMX.]

If only that wasn't a green stage wall behind me.... no jsut joking, I should of... next time

Split should be on either right or left side, not facing front or rear. A little carbon lube would be pro.

[@SupercrossBMX.]

Good extra tip, luckily the split is so thin, you won’t ever feel it no matter where the placement, but if you are like us, a tire label where the valve is kind of guy, then yes, full right or full left.

[@stephantvansteen8488]

Don't forget a little carbon grease under race !!
