I am running BOX THREE v brakes with Salmon black Kool stops and they are great. Dan's Comp has a special for the entire kit (lever, brake,hose) for 51$.
I upgraded cranks, bars, wheels, tires, seat post, sprocket, freewheel, chain, brake lever, stem and for me personally i add a suspension fork for looks and comfort. Got a gt pro series 26 is neon red with red annodized accents everywhere, came with disc brake so it 👌 i used box freewheel this time i have a r.o.s. on different bike but i hate it ghost pedals love how loud it is tho. The box is not as loud but is so smooth
Thanks for this video! I'm just trying to transform my MTB into a cool BMX style cruiser. It's a 7speed Marin Stinson. I'm just trying to get back into riding. I already ordered some tires but now i'm looking to convert it into a single speed with disc brakes. It currently has v-brakes. I want a nice BMX style set of handlebars.
With all those upgrades in order to be ultimate. Why not just purchase frame for lower price. For 1k you would think it be built right from the GIT GO!!! THANKS for the video for I'm in the market for 2 SE's myself & my son. Videos like this truly are AWESOME for the consumer... So listen up manufacturers 💪💯💪💯💪 🏍
Hey brother you break it down so people can understand. Ty I'm a older dude but never stopped riding I bought the framed 29er spacecraft love it want to up grade my crank arms and sprocket believe it's a 3 piece 175 mm it's making noise it's fucking my ride up but I'm hooking the bike up colors and I really need my crank arms blue and sprokett help me choose the best in your opinion I'm married 2 kids somneeds to be budget friendly thanks Edwin from nj
Awesome info - thanks for sharing! Question: I have a Big Ripper, and would like to change the gearing to make it a little bit easier to pedal (plus, it's very hilly where I live/ride). And, when wheelie-ing I also like to stand on the pedals. To that end, will a 33t front sprocket still provide enough resistance to stand (when wheelie-ing), or would it be better to leave the 36t (in front), and go with a 17t in the rear? Thx!
and what gearing should I run I've been thinking a 33t sprocket and 17 or 16t freewheel but I am not sure. I am wheeling but losing speed very fast on the stock gearing
If u want easier gearing go 17t or 18t freewheel. I suggest before swapping freewheel I say ditch the smoothie tires for gt hp5 tires they are 26x 2.1 and are much faster to get going. Smoothies being 26x2.5 takes more grunt to get rolling but coasts very very fast
I have a 29 big flyer and basically just want to do wheelies and am a beginner at it . Would a rideoutsupply 17th freewheel be overkill with the stock from front sprocket? or should I stick with the rideoutsupply 16th
Stick with the 16t in my opinion. I say that because as you’re learning wheelies right now, the smallest adjustment change can make a big difference and throw off your progress. And changing gearing you kinda have to re learn to wheelie comfortably until you’re use to it again. Idk if that makes sense. 17t runs out of speed quick too lol
Yes if bike has freewheel now any freewheel will work but I would save some money and get box or white because my ros freewheel ghostpedals it sounds killer but having pedals whip around when rolling bike thru house is hassle
It’s all pretty interchangeable for the most part. There is a variance in free wheels . But there are companies that are putting out parts designed around big bmx bikes, like RideoutSupply and Brokeboyzbmx.
I just got the cult 26' devotion today. I tried to sit down wheelie it and couldn't even get the tire off the ground. I only tried once, I am out of shape. But I wanted to ask you about the gearing on it. Internet says it has 25T sprocket and 10T cassette. Idk if that's good for wheelies or not. The only sit down wheelies I could do are on mountain bike low gears for like 5 pedals long. I feel like maybe I should get a sprocket that's more snappy and easier to get up. Also maybe I should I shorten the chain and put the tire as far forward as possible? Ok I just re-watched the part where I talk about the gearing.. I've got a 10T cassette and only want to change the 25T sprocket if nessisary. Could you suggest a snappyer one please that.
I just got a throne 29r goon I'm 6foot big boy lol was wondering what you recommend for sprockets teeth and free wheel teeth , i want to try and wheelie also
So I’m looking for a Big Bmx… I’m thinking of getting the Throne Goon - good idea? It looks okay on paper, but idk a helluva lot. Is there a better choice for a 26/27.5/29 around $500-$600? Thanks for any help! 🙏
It will make it easier to wheelie but you’re going to run out of speed quicker. Every tooth you go up in the rear is equivalent to 2.5 teeth up front. Usually safest to go up one tooth at a time in the rear.
Haha yessir! Well, You could do 16t ROS freewheel and a 36t Brokeboyzbmx Sprocket. That will cut down pedal rotation a bit and raise your top speed/cruising speed.

I agree , Paul levers are awesome. The Paul mini moto’s V- brakes are also great . They’re the best rim brakes I have ever used.
Hubs & Cog or freewheel. Cranks, Bottom bracket & Sprocket. Chain. Basically drivetrain imo.
I love looptail bikes.

The brokeboyz sprocket is dope 👌
Dope vid quick ? For a big flyer what what size handle bars you recommend

I was about to comment what about the tires and then you were like I know what you're thinking

I feel like I’m living in the twilight zone or something because I google ride out supply freewheels and it’s like they don’t exist or never existed.
Hookworm weighs like a bloody truck tire!

9" handle bars okay?
What's the best gearing for wheelie on a block flyer 26
17 tooth freewheel & 36 tooth sprocket
16/33
You should upgrade to the @gage_bmx_ signature pegs 😎
I have a subrosa 26 do you think it can use ros free wheel
Yes u can but I would recommend box over r.o.s. because my r.o.s ghoatpedals
I am on a Mafia bomma 26in any upgrade recommendations
and what gearing should I run I've been thinking a 33t sprocket and 17 or 16t freewheel but I am not sure. I am wheeling but losing speed very fast on the stock gearing
@@rlovee.13I run a 36,16 on my 26gt pro series
I need a new freewheel but the ride out supply ones are out of stock which brqnd should I get?
Oringin8 hornet are dope and affordable
What are some good rims? I have a 29er hi C Sunday and I keep bending my rim from swerving, what’s a good rim for swerves and jumps?
I got a pro series 26” and it has a 36t front sprocket. Seems kinda big for wheelies?
If u want easier gearing go 17t or 18t freewheel. I suggest before swapping freewheel I say ditch the smoothie tires for gt hp5 tires they are 26x 2.1 and are much faster to get going. Smoothies being 26x2.5 takes more grunt to get rolling but coasts very very fast
Hey do u know abt going from v brakes to disc brakes on my gt pro series??
Is there any where I can buy a frame and fork kit
I have a 29 big flyer and basically just want to do wheelies and am a beginner at it .
Would a rideoutsupply 17th freewheel be overkill with the stock from front sprocket? or should I stick with the rideoutsupply 16th

@@UrbanMisfit thank you man, very well explained. 16th it is
great video as always homie
Thanks fam 👊🏻
Aye I got a Gt 29” tryna upgrade my freewheel you think the ROS Signature freewheel will be compatible with my gt 29”
Which GT do you have?
Probs the performer
Yes if bike has freewheel now any freewheel will work but I would save some money and get box or white because my ros freewheel ghostpedals it sounds killer but having pedals whip around when rolling bike thru house is hassle
Just bought a cult Devotion 29. At 6'7, 270 - any suggestions on upgrades?
4 piece bars since your very tall
Are the bars for 20" bikes interchangeable with big bikes or do they make different bars specifically for big bikes?

Is it a good bike?
@@AndreasHvilhoej I love it but I also bought a se big flyer lol but I love both ikes

So I’m looking for a Big Bmx… I’m thinking of getting the Throne Goon - good idea? It looks okay on paper, but idk a helluva lot. Is there a better choice for a 26/27.5/29 around $500-$600? Thanks for any help! 🙏
The mafia us bikes go for around 600 and they come with hydraulic disc brakes that’s what I will be going for soon
I have the Throne The Goon in oil slick and is a great bike.
i have a 27.5 mannic flyer and ive been wanting to do some upgrades. Any ideas?
Hydraulic brakes, bottom brakes are good upgrades to start with on those maniacs
@@UrbanMisfit what kind of bottom bracket do you recommend?
get sealed hubs, trust me.
My Sunday hi c came with 27t F and 13t R
I am wanting to up the freewheel to 15t
Would this be ok
It will make it easier to wheelie but you’re going to run out of speed quicker. Every tooth you go up in the rear is equivalent to 2.5 teeth up front. Usually safest to go up one tooth at a time in the rear.
I have this set up with a 15t origin 8. Just bought my bike. New to the 29” bike life
What’s the best freewheel for a big guy on beast mode? The IG is @fybpm
what year beastmode is it?
Money lynch
Are you trying to do wheelies or just mob?
@@UrbanMisfit one day I will wheelie. Lol but yeah just rolling!
Haha yessir! Well, You could do 16t ROS freewheel and a 36t Brokeboyzbmx Sprocket. That will cut down pedal rotation a bit and raise your top speed/cruising speed.

Always coming with that 🔥
