What? You’ve got to love Phu, he’s so straight forward, open and knowledgeable.
Dont worry phu we love you 😂
Hahaha......seemed like Phu was talking about me when I started the whole journey for my son's BMX bike. Bought online, had Phu fix it, later find out it was wrong geometry for him, Phu built a whole custom bike for him.......now he shreds better than ever lol. Get cool with your local bike shop.....Phu isn't kidding when he says you'll probably break your bike when you don't know what you're doing lol.
Break how ?
Great videos keep em coming, learning alot. Just got back into building and riding after almost 30 years. A lot has changed. I still enjoy building 90s bikes. But keeping my kids bikes dialed is
New to me but I’m learning.
Bro I'm 43 and just got back into BMX, entry level bikes are better than the pro stuff we could never afford back in the day 😂
I learned how to ride on 20 in. BMX when I was five, my father owned a restaurant & he said 2 teens went in ordered/ate and bailed w/o paying leaving the bike behind he thought it might be stolen but he brought it home & it was love at 1st sight for me. I would graze my little jewelry on the top tube but that didn't stop me I climbed it/crashed it and learned how to ride!
Good information and breakdown of bike sizes here. I haven’t rode a bike on a long time and was looking to get back on one. I came into Epic BMX with a 29” in mind. Phu and the crew at Epic took their time to help me find the right bike. I love my 24”. It’s true what he said. It’s about getting the right size and learning to ride and just having fun. Thanks Phu and everyone and Epic BMX! You guys rule!
How tall are you? I’m getting into bmx and planning on getting a Haro shredder pro 24. I’m 5’9 but the 20 feels so small to me even though my legs and arms aren’t too long.
I'm 6'1" ride 20" and love it ! They can always be adjusted to fit in less your e 7' something. It's all on your style of riding, I've seen people my size cramped on a tiny 12" and skooling it! Just like nobbies are for dirt riding and slicks are for street.
So 90' minus = 45 degree down angle ?
Absolutely love this channel,
Always learning new stuff
or 135
Walked in right after the video ended and bought myself a freecoaster. Alf and Phu are the men to go to. Great service and great vibe
You are absolutely correct my friend, I grew up in the 80s riding a mongoose and it hurt to watch the much younger kids struggle trying to reach the pedals.
Best believe I’m copping a free coaster at epic bmx and I’m copping a bad luck shirt next week
You’re a legend 😍
I GOT SOME SHIT TO SAY ABOUT FU ! I got to say, he has epic bike sales skills
“Shut up back there Tucker”😂
Two epic videos this week. Awesome I'm very grateful... ooooohhh I'm dying for the beef. Would be perfect content for a live stream at epic. I'll even send some pizza
Great sizing tips! I agree on buying local if you can, I buy parts at Epic, but if need be, building and tuning a BMX from the box is pretty simple really.
All videos you upload with sir phu.i'm learn a lot and getting ideas about bmx.Tnx a lot for this sir alfredo.I hope both of you can tackle about the chromly and alloy and metal that use to our bikes.Thnk u a lot.🇵🇭👊🏻
Damn! Phu twice in one week! Epic!
It is crazy that the demand is so much higher then the supply with bicycles right now. After market used prices are even really high. My wife bought my kid a used om-duro. I said why didn't we just spend a lil more for a new one. My kid laughed. He said their just aren't any new ones. They been gone. I looked em up & was shocked. They been gone bro along with anything similar. All pre-orders with non guaranteed shipping dates. Unreal. Even walmart bike racks are still empty.
You are exactly right! I was going to get a 29” and was told what you just said and I got a GT Dyno 24” and I couldn’t be happier!

I totally love to come down there and work at your shop and help riders get sized up on bikes
Omg thank you me and my dad were looking at bikes like yesterday and this has probs just saved my life cus my dad always says to me u will grow into it and with ur advise no problem I will get the perfect bike thx
Glad we could help :)
On my way to settle these prices 😂😂
😂😂
I’m 5”11 have a 21” s&m laf 24” s&m atf and a 26” fit mike aitkens and a 26” dirt jumper and ride them all and they fit my side perfectly 😎
Matt Hubbard Cool story bro 😎
@@blakbanshee not a story man that’s my personal nikes and I’m gonna ad a 29er to it this next summer or before 😂😂
Just bought a kink drifter, can’t wait omggggg, have a trek 9.5 pro cal but yea… word
Thanks for the knowledge phu ! As always very much appreciated.
I love your videos & all of your information. It is extremely helpful. I sincerely thank you for it Phu
My bad
I bought a bike recently which is made of 100% pure high tensile bullshit parts keep getting lose my hubs are not engaging sometimes it's only been a month and I'm just doing Bunny hops Fakies manuals
Phu Vu strikes me as an realist. I appreciate this quality.
While everything you say here is true, there is also a subjective part of Bmx sizing. For example, me and my friend are both around 5’2 and we both ride completely different feeling bikes. Ive got JACKED bars, 4 spacers, top load stem, and 9.5” rise. He’s got 8.25” bars, a pretty low top load stem, and no spacers. To me, his bike feels totally alien, and he feels the same way about mine.
What a great video. Trying to make a decision for my Grandson. Bikes have come a long way from the old days of the original Mongoose.
Thanks George, glad we could help!
Recently got into bmx love your vids they help a lot I know a lot more about the hobby an bikes in general now wish I had a bike shop like your near me in the uk
I've raced pit bike class racing BMX years ago on a custom 18" Brew pit bike sized for an adult. Thing was mad sexy, painted metallic candy red 🍒
Phu is the man!
I NEED THAT SHIRT RIGHT NOW!!!
That Sunday is literally the same bike i have 💘💘💘
That’s what’s up!
Love these bmx informational vids!
Little Junior that gets too big a bike ends up not getting into BMX, but ends up getting into mountain bikes instead. Then he comes back to BMX when he's fat, old, and not dependent on Santa anymore LOL
From the start I knew my son's body was 155cm and now he is using 20 inches. I tried to use 18 inch she said it was more comfortable 20 inch because I got used to it from the start. and it gives him trouble getting tricks
My son is 7, he can acctually ride a 18" just fine. The 20 is still too big for him.. But i got him a 16" cult. It fits him perfect and he can try to start doing tricks when hes ready.
Well I bought a 20 inch bmx about 1 year ago and I can wheely,manual,bunyhop,barspin and tailwhip and I'm 12 years old (5ft 2)
I got my christmas gifts 2 months ago. Kids got a misfit 18 and a sunday primer 18. I snagged a fit 22. All from my local spot. Shout out to pedal action bmx in colorado springs, co.
I'm 5'-7". Started on a 20.5 TT. Then went to a 21" TT. I fall between 20.75/21
GREAT VID A-TRAIN!!!!
Thank you D Will!
Think i got talked into the wrong size bike for my boy by my local bike shop. Should have got him an 18" I think (instead of 20") I'll take note of sizing him on it and perhaps he'll be getting an 18 for Christmas.
In all fairness when it comes to the average parent to child their goal is not to dine $4-700 frequently. They probably have the mindset of oh he can just grow into it. Great information and I agree. They need to put 30.9mm and up seat posts on them the run more common dropper posts. Yea it’s bmx but they are also great commuters in tight spaces. Great video thank you.
i love you phu💪🏻, also i rode from 15years, its super funny amd nice here you🔥, please more videos 👍🏻✨Alfredo
I like the choice between 20 inch an 22 inch wheels! Frames are close to each But I feel the 22 inch wheels you get better rolling results ! My opinion
2022 kink drifter, I’m 6’0 wit shoes
Thanks for the info bro
Thanks bro 🤙🏽
Very informative thank you, Alfredo. Just want to ask if your half Filipino?
Thank you I needed this I’m trying to by a bmx bike and I think I found the one but this helps even more
Hey leave Phu alone!
Keep up the good work guys👍👍
Love videos talking about size and what people ride but what I would really like to know is alfs top tube length because you can get many lengths with 20 inch wheels
Phu is the man
The people with the kid were probably thinking theyd better buy a little bit bigger bike because kids grow fast and they were looking at a thousand dollar bicycle lmao
Love your videos!!
Thanks for making this I want a new bike but I can’t afford one but this will come in handy
Nice shop my dude your opinion on best complete bike for 2022
All the shops near me don’t know how to put a bike together if you buy a complete all the bolts are loose and it’s not greased. I tried getting a wheel relaced he wanted to charge 150 just for labor.
Master mechanic. Awesome thanks a lot.
Wow! Know bike this is getting crazy. Still glad I have mine 😌
I’m 5.5 feet is okay if a buy a 20.75 inch top tube BMX bike.( Help me )
20 inch tire is fine its the tob tube frame size I have a issue my cousin gave me a haro f2 I thought it was a 20.3 til I got there and realized it was a 18.75 size its to small for me im 5ft7 ish
I need the Sunday Street Sweeper or Soundwave!#BMX🔥
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Lol I have that Sunday bike 😂
Much Love Phu
Very informative video 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
My son is 9 years old. We are average height/size Filipino. Kindly suggest what is the best size bmx for my son?
Bikes have restocked after Christmas. Prices are back to normal. Don’t pay over retail.
Sweet! I just picked up a 95 gt pro
Dam good advice.
Thank you Sir!
Hello can you do a vid about bmx helmet? Im a newbie and I want to get serious about riding so I want to get the best safety gears needed. Thank you so much.
Do you guys have an online store?
So what size should I get? I wanna buy a BMX for the first time. I have around €1000 to spend.
I'm 28 years old, weigh 86kg and 193cm tall.
That's 189.6lbs and 6"3.
What frame size should I get? And do you suggest a Freecoaster or a Casette? I ride a normal bike everyday to work, never ride a BMX bike before.
Definitely a cassette as a beginner, much easier to learn on.
You can def go for a bike with 22“ tires.
If you go for 20“ tires, get at least a 21“ TT, at your size probably the longer the better.
You should easily find decent complete bikes within your budget, no worries. Probably, you can keep some money on the side for possible upgrades like grips, pedals or pegs.

Jolt Cola rules!
Is the free agent vergo a good bike?
Seriously RUclips ! the number of ads you have is getting out of control. Keep it up and people will just switch off.
You measure from the top bar to the ground not the handle bar
BMX geometry is all personal preference tbh.
100%
@@AlfredoMancuso I'm so happy to think that you're actually reading comments. Love from the Ph!!!!
So how tall do u have to be to ride a 24inch
Epic!
Is elite bmx a good bike for beginners?
PHU IS THE FUCKING BEST!!! I LOVE THESE VIDEOS!!
I remember I had just bought a new BMX bike and I was riding it in my neighborhood and 3 husky’s I think chased me I was taking a break I heard them running man I took off on my bike bruh i rode back home
Im 5"10 330lb wtf do i buy
I love you Phu ❤️
I bought a 26 inch BMX its a good cruise bike but i will get a 22inch next for tricks
U can shred the 26 tho! It can be done!
Always ride it first 😉 old school tip
How can i Order Online...for Bmx Beginner for daily Service....hm?
I got 29er sunday baker edition but I want 24in sunday model c so hard to find in stock online
Where is this bikeshop
“Buy new teeth”. Lmao
Can I ride a 20 inch I’m either 411 or 500
Man I'm 35, in the market for a bmx so I can ride with my young kids. I was looking at a 24" stolen saint because I didn't want to look silly on a 20" bike. Am I making the wrong decision? Not trying to do anything crazy but bunny hop curbs, do wheelies, and possibly 180s.
Kink drifter
Im 35 5'11 200lbs. Im looking at a 29" for street cruising with my family
Yeah man, that would be a perfect size if your just street cruising. I am the same size and have the same bike size to cruise around with my family and it's perfect. Yes, I can j hop it and pop a wheelie with it and I am 6ft 150 lbs. However, I do it as a joke and have a main BMX bike for park/street that's a 20". Hope this helps man!!!
where is the shop located?
16483 Magnolia St. Westminster, CA 92683
Where is this store located

i bought a 29 to wheelie
Huge bikes!
Is there any legitimate place to find Ti forks and bars? I'm just not convinced on Alibaba lol RNCBMX💯🔥❤️
