You know what, they didn’t have blue when I looked.

We've got one or two saved. Where you at?

@ San Antonio Tx. I’m trying to go back to stock for my son. Then gradually put upgrades back on so my son can evolve with this bike. I’m handing it down. Looking for other parts too shocks. Brake levers, calibers … everything basically. lol

Yeah email me, I should have a lot of stuff as we took it off both of our aggressor’s and saved most of it. You should be able to find my email on our page. I’m really pretty new with this.

@ all good me too earned a sub. I just started posting too.

What would you say is/are the best upgrades you’ve done?

Thanks Forrest! So far it’s great. I definitely like this logo better, it was a nice surprise. Thanks for the help!

I believe that Judy is a 120

And yes you can

Thanks! It was pretty basic, but after all of the upgrades, I can’t tell you how much I like it too

I wouldn’t be able to compare the two, but it seems plenty strong. I wouldn’t ride it otherwise!

Much appreciated!

Says 60psi on the sidewall.

@@thebikefam thanks, I'm really considering ordering it. Just want a few extras. High PSI tires and 28 tooth sprocket, maybe pegs, hubgaurds decide whether to swap my free coaster back and forth

Thank you! That’s awesome about the training wheels. I’m about to try a balance bike with my youngest. We’ll see how that goes.

@@thebikefam we also used a balance bike - they are great he had that till we came across a bike with training wheels and that seemed to be a good transition to really riding!!

Thanks!

Hey thanks a lot, hope you enjoy!

Yeah, that’s a good idea. I’m sure if I mention it he’ll have a couple picked out before bed.

Actually, we meant to get one by now. Somehow I screwed that up, but we should get that done in the next couple weeks...

26” will work and fit if you get bigger. 29” should be ok too many of my sons friends are same size and have no issues.

Nice!

Our 5’7” friend days you’ll be fine. 😎

We’re going to find out this weekend and I’ll post a video. I ordered another set for my mtb.

@@thebikefam nice thanks! As I said it would be interesting to see!

Yes he had them on for a while, but they got in the way he said so he removed them. I think they must be in some of our videos when the bike was first assembled

@@thebikefam alr thanks

i’m going to try to make a follow-up video this week, now that I’ve been riding it for a month. I thought the weather was going to be nice, but it’s been crummy… So I’ve not made much video, it sucks when it’s so hot. So far, I like the 1X. More range than I’ve needed so far. I thought I might end up putting the 2X GRX set up on there but at this point, I am pretty happy. I have made a few upgrades though that I’ll get into. At least until Shimano releases the drop bar cues early next year. I think that’s going to be the way for me. I’ll know by then.

6’1”…. Fits well after a stem swap and repositioning the grips/retapping the bars.

And thanks 😎

I did end up having an issue with the free wheel that came with the bike and I did replace it - although I’m not sure that is in this video, I think it’s in the haro wheel set video

Yes, I am 6'1"

Yes! We don't have a Fueler, but you can bet I've thought about it. Nice bike!

Did your dad ever send money or gifts ?

I’m in the same situation my baby mama doesent let me see my boy but I ask every week and she says she’s busy . Maybe your mom kept him away . Just know he prolly thinks about you every minute of every day but maybe feels unwanted .

24" x 2.5"

40 atm. Still experimenting.

@@thebikefam thanks I just got the bike and I took it to the gas station to fill up air and noticed tires said 65 psi lol I was like there’s no way I can put 65

I put around 35-40

Yeah, I think I put 50 or so right off the bat, but it feels way better to me around 40. Some research online seem to indicate the ideal pressure for that tire was at 35 psi… I could be wrong, this is off the top of my head

@@thebikefam thanks

No it is not.

I also expected to be wrapping the bars myself. They came fully assembled. I just had to attach them to the stem. I sort of wish they were not assembled, I would’ve liked to experimented with placement, but it did get me riding sooner

Just the stuff that needs it. 😀

@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.

I wish I had more time on it before now, but until this week the weather‘s been 120° in the day. The brakes are mediocre, everything else is great. I’ll make a proper video about it and what my plans are. Originally, I was going to put the GRX group set you’ve got on, but I think I’ll make some small upgrades and wait to see what happens with CUES. I haven’t had enough time on it to decide anything on the gear range in all honesty.

@@thebikefam I won’t have mine for another week. Gamble not being able to ride it or test fit. Looked at quite a few other bikes, mechanical disc were bad on all of them. Excited for GRX groupset and hydro brakes. Sale price blew everything away. Probably should have spent more and gotten the Carbon model lol

All my thoughts as well. I have a large GT aggressor, so I went with a large grade. Seems to fit well. Hydraulic brakes, I don’t know how much better they are… But in my hand, they feel amazing, so ultimately that’s what I’d like to have. I picked up some brake calipers I’ll try out this week I hope they are as good as they look

@@thebikefam one for day until it shows up!

@@marclayman8799 how did it go? I’m going to try to get a video up this weekend with updates on my bike.

The hookworms are incredible. Highly recommended over the smoothies. Check out the grifters too I did those in another video.

So far so good…. Rode it every day until summer and no issues

@@thebikefam good deal, thanks for the info

That’s awesome. He’s going to love it.

@thebikefam How tall are you, your bike is the 29" right?

In this video, we’re both 6 foot one. My son keeps growing.

@thebikefam 🤣😂 your son made that bike look like a regular size BMX 😂. I'm 5'10, the bike is pretty big to me 😂. Perfect for my nephew. Thank you for the great review!

Ya buddy. 27.5 x 2.3

Did you also post on Facebook earlier? I used a digital caliper set to 50 mm in the rear, and I believe it will fit. That’s probably about as big as you could go.

Thank you! ​@@thebikefam

I actually purchased the orange/red but for whatever reason I never received it. Honestly, I’m glad, the yellow is awesome.

@@thebikefam Absolutely. It's of course subjective but the yellow when coupled with those after-market tires is the winning combination for me. I'd be swapping out the yellow grips for black ones to match the seat, tires and stem though. Yes, I'd be removing all of the pads because to me BMX have always too kiddie with the pads on. Albeit in this specific instance I might leave on the top tube pad as its mostly black color neatly breaks up the large expanse of yellow by just enough to look good in tandem with the aforementioned other black parts.

Yeah, it’s my wife’s bike, there are a few things I would do, but this is how she likes it. I did insist on the handlebars, and since she likes the grips, I got some black and yellow grip donuts. I’m not sure if they were in that video, but they look sweet

Were both 6'1", though one of us is shrinking and one is still growing....

They are super busy. It was hard for me to get someone. Check page 16 of this manual. gtbicycles.com/cdn/shop/files/GT_Collection_2021_Tech_Book.pdf?v=9096195888648130446

Fantastic video. Thank you. You seem very well equipped. Any chance you can measure the spacing between the chainstays .. curious if 50mm tyre would fit. (Web site says 45 mm but I am seeing lots of space there I think). If yes, gt did their home work. Killer frame. Thank you!!

Nice!! Go over everything!

It sure looks like it to me. I’m pretty sure it’s a standard size and I’ve got a big ripper right next to this GT and they look the same.

@@thebikefam do you think a fixed gear cog could go on the rim

@@cost1339 I am not sure!

I put them on marketplace :)

34-34 I believe it was

He’s 6 foot one and it’s a large. But yeah, he’s probably grown an inch since he got it.

I would check marketplace as well. I have seen rims on my local marketplace for about $100 for a pair. That would be the easiest thing to do. But sure, drop your questions here and I’ll help however I can

Thanks! We’re about to put a new sprocket on next!

@@thebikefam gonna have to upload the process and result . Most definitely gonna sub to you and watch when you post . Thanks boss

So yes, you will be fine. We have a friend who is about that size and loves it, but we are both 6'1". Thanks for watching!

@@thebikefam do you think i would look goofy on a 29 inch tho like u think i would fit better on a 26 inch

Nah. You might like the feeling of the 26 but if you’re going to ride with friends 29‘s probably the way to go if that’s what they are riding.

also can you link the brakes

Hey, I’ll check it out and try and fix that this evening. We did use 175 though.

@@thebikefam thank you!!
