Cmon mann 😂😂😂😂😭 “my eyes is slanted” broo😂😂😂😂
Shadow Supreme all day long, have one on both my bikes.
That guy knows his chains .
He sure does 😂
When I was learning how to ride I would use a lot of pedal pressure for my trucks, and at 200 pounds I would break the 510 and 710 chains until I got the shadow never broke a chain after
Same here. I float between 200-220, and I can almost snap a KMC 410 on command. Pedaling up ramps too slow and PLINK. I have flown over the bars too many times, I put shadow chains on all my bikes now
Keep killing it with the content Alfredo 💯
always love to see you guys doing your thing keep it up best bmx show around.

I had a KMC HL1 Wide half link on my EVIL DJ .. really smooth riding chain and it looked really cool, but snapped after 6 months .. I watched this video before buying a new chain, about a month ago.. I got the shadow supreme chain and it’s just super tough! I feel way more confident on my bike now! Thanx doods! 🤙🏻 much peace and respect from the Southern California desert ✌🏻🤘🏼
There's no doubt you know everything about bikes and it's your topic. thanks for the brilliant contributions.
I think the difference is repeated use, average dudes will ride the same chain for 5 years, whereas a pro will bash hard and swap out in 6 months
I couldn’t agree more!
Overbuilding bikes back in the mid school era taught me I needed none of that overbiilt stuff. I wasn't easy on my bikes, but never as hard as the dudes that went way big.
I run a combo of race parts on a street frame now, closing in on a 21 pound BTM and I love it. I'm old and ride smooth tho, and don't ride pegs anymore..

@@spicydramarama852why are you mocking God?
This is an "HR" episode, haha. Great info, thanks for another great video
Great video! I always stick to the shadow interlocking v2
Thanks for making feel better about running the chain I have. 😎
Dude is spot on.
If your breaking chains you need to dial-in your setup. Your alignment is off, your sprocket is warped etc, something is off, it's not the chains fault.
Full half-link chains are 2x as heavy 3x the cost and stretch easily..
Wish my area had an actual BMX shop
Phu spitting facts and his pomade game is on point!
i got my shadow 1/2 link from this store. Great people and amazing service!
Thanks for the support G
@AlfredoMancuso will this chain fit on a 29 in Bmx Cruiser?
Always a 710 kool knight for the bling and just same strength guys. Hard to find in Australia now at the shops. But hey nothing is getting made these days. Time to restore old gear and make it new.👍bmx forever bro
Thank You for this great content.. If only your shop in my country.. 🤘🔥🤘🔥
🙏🏻💜
Thanks. Love the channel and im a big heavy set dude. I need this chain.
We back!
Unchain my heart Phu!
Thanks for the video guys! So you recommend that last chain then guys. Thanks again guys!
I love how you
just assume I'm not jumping 20 down a stair...I mean Im not but, you didnt know that. lol cheers man
Hahaha you could be the exception!
I ride Flatland and Trials. Since 1987 I only broke one chain riding BMX but riding Trials I broke so many. If you know about modern trials you know how dangerous a snapping chain is. The Kmc Cool Chain is absolutely the only one I trust. Thanx for the awesome videos greetz from Germany
I've broken a couple chains. Mostly because i rode my chain SO TIGHT. Flipped over the bar one of those times. It was just a basic small KMC.
I have them on my set up from my first bike till this day, Been through a lot sprocket grinds Kruks switch feebles still Toasty.
Hey guys I am a new subscriber here guys love how y'all rib on each other y'all. Very entertaining and informative guys. Y'all stay safe guys. Phu you are awesome. ✌🏻out guys
Dope video!
a chain is always as strong as its weakest link.
Timing chains?
I'm more of a timing belt kinda guy... live life on the edge
can you put a TT kit on my bmx bike
wipperman used to make a really heavy duty chain, used it for 4 seasons of racing and then 10 years freestyle no problem. Switched to the 1/4" 510H after that for heavy street use.
I wanted the lightest chain for my daughters new rig, but the chain stays are so short nowadays that I pretty much had to get a half link. That's something you forgot, a half link is easier to get the right length exactly.
Lmao " My neck ain't red"
Great informative video👍🏻👍🏻
I casually ride my '94 dyno compe attached with a baby trailer and i'm fine with izumi/kmc 410.
I use a kmc710 on my '94 gt interceptor (race/dirt) and it's legit!

I used to use the other chains, at the time I snapped it I was riding up a steep hill and in a hurry, I weighed only 185 at the time. when I switched to the shadow interlock I had no more issues, no more stretching, bending or breaking...Though to be fair, as the chains age after a couple years or so of daily abuse if your not cleaning it and lubing it properly eventually it's gonna break regardless.

Good info guys
Problem with buying expensive chains is that they ALL stretch and start wearing your chainring out. Buy normal chains and replace them when they stretch.
Half link chains stretch faster.
In the old days kmc 420 motorbike chain I used them only ever purchased one they was used on 50 cc 100 cc motorbikes but they was the same metric measurement as a bmx but they did eat chain rings and rear sprockets ….. ✌️
That beast chain would make cool bracelet. I always liked running the thin road bike chain I think they were sram or uni chain can't remember. Maybe next vid talk about hair styles and gel choice 🤔 lmao
It was good to get Phu's chain reaction so now i know what chain I want on my new Zooz electric bmx bike thank too Phu he's the man👍🏾🤣
I have that one on my Zooz 🤘
@@BerserkerNick so now I definitely know wot, chain to get thank you brother 🙏 🙌
Do a video on the differences of carbon fiber bmx race wheels .
also i have the same experience the 510 is a very strong chain and will work for almost anybody plus the classic polished shiny one looks so good i used to ride very hard big air and spins and such but no pegs 510 worked long and hard if you are grinding alot thats when other chains should be considered ive seen people grind with 510 chains even and never seen one break I have seen 410 break and broken a couple 410 myself but thats mostly cause i was young and dumb and riding a very stretched and old chains.

good sales man
I ride the shadow interlock chain on my fixed gear because there is constant stress on the chain. I've found this chain does not stretch easily, if it has even stretched at all compared to every other chain I've used. Looks and feels super solid too.

I have snapped these half link chains so many times which is why I’m here on this video. I hope yours holds up better than mine ever have 😭
Supreme or the normal version?
Cause lol half links especially shadow half links are known to stretch alot.
@@bmxriderforlife1234 Supreme. I'm still riding it its held up great
@ETM yeah the Supreme is on a different level to any of half link and even beats out things like the og Kool chain or a wipperman 1g8.
Agree 200% !😎🚲
The thickness of the chains doesn't indicate strength. The Z510HX is the only chain I've never broken. It has heat treated side plates and the pins are mushroomed, so it's crazy difficult to get the plates off even if you're using the big park press tool
Do the modern half link chains still stretch worse/faster than the classic side plate style chains? Tried the OG half link chain (was it shadow, don't remember?) And it rode like crap because it stretched so bad.
Shadow supreme chain is the only chain that holds up for me 🔥👍🚲💨
BMX racers snap chains occasionally. I did it twice when I was on the national circuit.
That’s mine tinder profile had the chain just like that left it at SA
Why did Odyssey discontinue the Keychain? I think it was called, it had a hollow pin.
Im new but ordered a shadow
i am learning trials/street trials i broke lots of chains. But those were fancy ones hollow, half links and mtb chains , once i tried 710 I broke my frame, Lol. Then I went to 610 and similar, no issues at all and saved a bit of grams. 710 went to my Dirt jump bike....
I've actually broke 2 of the original shadow interlock chains after that I switched to the hollow link kmc because it was all I could get on a trip and ill never switch back from them every time I get a new frame I get a new chain
What do you think about the Rant Max 410 + Half Link chain?
Didnt kink bmx make a chain that was like moto chain but for bmx u needed a special driver n sprocket for it kink had one with a guard the guard was some kinda polymer but those things lasted forever never had ah issue except alotta weight but u could grind anything i mean anything
Yeah that was the first I remember. I couldn't afford one so I took the chain off my honda z50 and it worked kinda. Never broke, but it mulched sprockets quick
I snapped 2 chains in college and busted my knees/mouth on my bars both times. Some of the worst pain I've gone through without being seriously injured. Both times were taking off on flat ground. I played football in college. I wasn't anywhere near a pro rider but those kmc chains didnt stand a chance.
I’ve broken a stolen brand chain 3x today….. I feel this.
haha! cheers brother 👍
Hellya, 510HX forever!
29 ride kmc & shadow ❤
We need those stronger two chains so they dont break under everyday riding
idol i ask you what is the best for you 510 or half link chain
what grease, fat or oil do you recommend to lube the chain ? and how often do i apply it ?
TriFlo. Depends on how much you ride and how dirty it gets. When it gets really dirty, degrease it (off the bike), clean, and re-lube. Otherwise if it stays pretty clean, I'd say once a month.
@@TuesdaysTurn i figured TriFlow is hard to get in Switzerland, any alternatives ?
@@emen3y659 Any bike chain lube from a reputable company. I'd ask a local bike shop.
I’m in love w marry in jhain! Lol 😂
Welcome To The Epic Bike Shop Show
This vid was off the chain.
😂
Back in the day we would double up our sprockets and run motorcycle chain.
I have that beefy kmc chain on my Zooz
I'm surprised you didn't mention the kmc 1/2 x 3/16
I’ll video. Maybe you could do on freewheels? I’m a bigger dude and pedal hard and idk what’s up but my last 3 freewheels got roasted. They just freewheel forward and backwards. I don’t know to much about them and the internals and what can go wrong and would love to find out and what to get. We love phu
He’s super Knowledgeable about Bmx only come to this channel about Bmx info haha
What's your opinion on the shadow conspiracy copper chain
I love this energy, the guys at my local are always half asleep!
Nah
Whipperman chain is one of the strongest chains. Pretty rare though.
I ride a heavy trike. Stretching is an issue. I've snapped 2 chains. They tell me its machine chain that is used on the trike. And although i do want something more stylish i actually do have to worry about function over form. I use coaster breaks and yeah snapping while climbing a hill is healthy fear.
Spray lube is as good for lubing chains as liquid right?
I avoid it because it sprays everywhere. Regular TriFlo is awesome, and you can use it on so many parts of the bike.
I ride a cool knight on a 26 inch cruiser because it looks dope as fuck.
Shadow v-2 crimson red and I have 3 and one supreme
Shadow chain is fr tough asf
Thee best
I have a Question ??? Kid here jumping pretty high off launch ramp to flat. His bike sometimes makes this Metal Bending loose bars moving bang sqeeck..... I can NOT find Anything Loose or Bent on his Bike from the outside ???????????? Is it the inside of the old school type neck broken ? or the bars kind of moving ? I have heard that sound before.....
i want to trade my old fitbike co complete for the New Sleeper COmplete. :)
If you bust a chain from peddling it ain't the chain, it's your wheel being pulled back too far causing your chain to be too tight. I was recently 250 lbs(I'm 215 now), never broke a chain from riding. I broke hundreds of chains when I was a kid and I was probably 150 to 160 lbs, all from grinding.
I can snap 410s pretty easy while running chain tensioners
I would just get myself a white chain just to make my bike look pretty
They look clean for photos for sure, but only the first few hard rides haha
Your missing the mid school "oversized" chain
Touché
Does the weight of the bike matters ? I just started riding bmx and I'm kinda struggling in lifting the front and back wheels. Can you make a video about it ?
Yea bro it %100 matters depending what you wanna do, judging by what you said a light bike will definitely be a benefit
Lighter is better for most everything, but ride what you have and improve as you go. Don't overbuild. I'm not that hard on stuff so I can ride race cranks instead of 22mm heavy duty stuff,. Tires, tubes help more than you think, but you dont need $40 tubolitos, I snag thinwall tubes from junk Walmart bikes all the time.
Plus work on your strength and health, it will come.
Bike weight is not everything. People were bunny hopping 30lb-35lb bikes back in the day. Watch seth bikes bunny hop a 48lb mtb. Its more about technique.
@@gugujee MTBers usually cheat, by loading the compression and then popping up.
No. My kids can hop, and their bike is nearly half their body weight. If you can jump off the ground without a bike, you can bunnyhop. Focus on your body, not the bike.
Yo man do yall have a website?
The last one looks a dirt magnet. Hehe.
Hehe. For real!?
Supreme
Oh yeah 🤔
do you have YKK chain
My standards stock Sunday chain holds up so well to my 225 pound fat ass and my 26 pound bike and all I pull Is 180 half cabs
What was that fat ass chain that needed the ACS fat claw? Wasn't that like 415? Could practically steal links from my motorcycle for it.
Probably a KMC 415. They were super popular in the beefy midschool days, right before shadow dropped the Interlock v1, which you can’t get anymore.
Basically a moped chain if I remember correctly
Kink had a chain in the early 2000's. I cant remember what it was called.
I did brake a 10speed chain in a sprint on my roadbike, however I think its nearly impossible to brake one on a bmx.
Correction: I actually managed to break the chain on my WTP Bike. Now I go Shadow supreme to avoid another nasty crash like that in the future.
I’ll definitely take that KMC on my show bike any day ride smooth no complaints on my end most expensive chain I could find on Internet I thought the name of the game was dump as much money into your bike as you can
the supreme chain will tear up your sprocket, rips off teeth. Just switched back to odyssey bluebird
you update me sir about the latest specs of b.m.x. practical .
Can someone tell odyssey to bring back the key chain!!
I have that cheap KMC chain and it is constantly breaking and has caused my sprocket to get chewed up. No I don't stunt my bmx at all but I ride a lot.
Either your front sprocket is not aligned or your chain is too tight. It should not be eating sprockets, even aluminum ones last me a few years.
I have a chain on my bmx bike that thicker and bigger than any of those chains he is talking about if I could post a picture of the chain I would
I didn't see a Regina hollow pin chain....
he is a funny guy so i bought one.
