Dont worry guys whatever video you put up will get watched. Doesnt matter to me what content you put out ill watch it.
Thank you so much Talllyn!💙 very cool of you man, Jane a good Sunday and we will be see you tuesday with that Taff you guessed or not???? 🤣
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS Sweet man. Cant wait to see what yalls next project will be. I think im finished on my 2 projects for now or until I find a really great deal on a carbon frame.
Good luck finding that, you know there is a 27.5 frame for sale on Ebay for like 249.00? carbon, tapered you may look at? ahhh they are from china;( I just checked. See you Tuesday my man
I watched a ton of your GT AP budget videos. You do a really damn good job of explaining everything. You are one of those people that you just can't help but like. Making these videos is defn the right gig for you. Thanks for teaching me a bazillion things about bikes!
Man Kasey, thank you for the awesome comment brother:) Very awesome of you to understand my LINGO!! LOL Glad you found us and we aim to get better with every video;) See ya TUESDAY!
Thanks man. Pop's I hope we get to 1k for you. Love the backyard engineering, its what this channel fun. Got my Aggressor Pro off-road today before it got hot. Ride safe!
Very cool man and glad you helped in proving the old man wrong!!!!Now polishsmoke be sure and watch Tuesdays video brotha! I need your vote ha ha, you will see what I mean:) Later man
I used a $25 Venzo sealed bearing headset from amazon on a 2019 Aluminum Comp I upgraded and it went smoothly like yours. Everyone overlooks the headset but if you’re completely transforming the cockpit of the bike already, the extra 25 is worth it. I paid my bike shop $10 to punch out and press the new one in as it was cheaper than even making my own tools from hardware.
Right on man and that is a great price! HA HA, thank you for watching and proving the old man wrong! Be sure to watch Tuesdays video!!! Got another vote for the viewers:)
lol! I still want details on the hat! BTW, consistent content on a schedule is a great way for a channel to grow, and you guys are on your way! This has been fun to watch your channel do its thing.. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much SHWELL11! That means alot man and thank you so much for watching our stuff and being a public subscriber. It really helps! Now we proved dad wrong and I need you again! Tuesdays video there is a vote going on, you will see what I mean in the video! So be sure to watch and weigh in brother!!! 💙💙💙
And good advice you gave, the cap sets the headset bearing preload, and the stem bolts hold the adjustment. The top cap doesn't have to be super tight, just tight enough to take the play out of the headset.
Gotcha brother, thanks again
This is great, many people skim over the headset as an upgrade. I was waiting for this video!
Hell yeah man and thanks for voting! Also got that video on the new bike unveil coming out Tuesday! The taff I believe you guessed????? MAYBE! MAYBE NOT HA HA HA thanks brother
WOLFTICK VIDEOS aw man that’s gonna be a sick project. One of these days I gotta send out some spare parts for you.
That would be sweet man! And you out of all people need to watch Tuesdays vidoe man! I know you will but be sure and watch the whole thing!!! Later man and see you Tuesday
Honestly all your videos are awesome and even if you had a “boring” video it’s a riot to watch you and your pops! Haha anyway sweet install I made the same headset tool up with 1/2 threaded rod and washers as well. Enjoy those sealed bearing everything is like 🧈 butter
Thanks Lot MTB MIKE! very nice of you to say that brother, appreciate the view👌
Thanks for covering this, I get the feeling that headsets aren't covered enough despite being such an important part of the bike.
I've got a cartridge bearing headset that I was considering taking to my LBS to fit but after seeing this I think I might give it a go myself.
Great channel by the way, you've got a new subscriber.
Well Ben that is very cool man! So glad you watched it and commented. Now in the budget upgrades update #3 we took a vote. I had the Headset Video shot and dad didnt want to put it out there(because lack of views) so we waited. Then I thought it would be a good idea and since we didnt agree, we took a vote from the WOLFTICK NATION they wanted it! So we put it out there and it got OVER 1000 views dad wanted in the first 24hours . We proved him wrong and tomorrows video he will eat crow! Atleast the opener so be sure to watch and vote in on it man! Ok now you are up to speed!LOL Thanks again and glad you are officially apart of WOLFTICK NATION!!!
Great video! Just bought one and it's now on sale for $13.55 :)
Thank you for commenting and very good deal!
When I worked at a bike shop, we made our own tools all the time, be it a headset press, a crownrace tool, even chainwhips. We always did what we had to to get the job done. Its cool to watch you do the same thing to work on your own bike!
Dude that is so cool! Thank you very much for watching and commenting! Could use a guy like you around ha ha, a bike pro with no criticisms!!! LOL
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS to me, it has always been about bikes. Any bikes. If you are riding and happy with it, that's all that matters! I dont care if you spent $20 or $9000 on it! My job has always been to keep it running!
Very cool outlook man! I like it ha ha. Alot of people (not on this channel) try and say that you need the best and to spend spend spend, but we like to think there is a loophole, so i really appreciate the comment. Dont have to have the best, just ride:) Run what you BRUNG!!
Thank you both for the video upload at was Great! 👍 Taking off & on the brake callipers to be centred is really easy, all you have to do are the following 4 steps:
Step 1: remove rear or front wheel.
Step2: loosen head bolts holding the Brake Callipers completely.
Step3: place front or rear wheel back on .
Step 4: attach callipers back on & screw bolts back on but not all the way just hand tighten, then press brake lever firmly, this places callipers where they are meant to be by themselves automatically, continue to keep brake levers pressed & tighten the calliper bolts while keeping lever pressed . Job done
That sealed headset system is so much better than the old one. I’ve got to get that sealed headset system myself.
It’s pretty cool that you’ve made up your own tools instead of having to buy them new. Brilliant, Once again great upload Thanks Wolftooth & Jeremiah 🔥.😁🤣😁 Someone’s eating something👍
Wow you got it all man!! Directions, humor and a very nice comment lol appreciate it Andrew will do!😉
Awesome! Thank you for posting. Enjoy the coffee!!
Well Brian thank you so much for the COFFEES! Very cool my brother and like I said, thanks for watching!!!!😁 You have won me over twice now ha ha ha! We appreciate our supporters man, very cool of you to do that for us💙Tell me what you want next LOL
You can't handle the video! Lol.
Great video, thanks for showing us how easy this is. I didn't even think to replace the headset while I'm debating about a new suspension fork. I can see how it would be a great idea once you already have everything off the front of the bike and out of the way.
Absolutely man, thank you for watching and taking the time.👍 good luck brother!!
Keep the content going! You have no idea how much these videos will help someone with a GT aggressor try to upgrade their bike with the huge lack of information on dicks sporting goods website. Thanks for doing the research!
Matt we appreciate the kind words man and thank you for watching our content!!!! Now be sure to vote on tomorrows video! The new bike unveil and you will know what I mean when you watch it;) Later man 💙
im watching 9 months later. this has made me purchase the upgrade
Well no thats AWESOME!! Thank you! See you FRIDAY for another headset install and a MANITOU!!
Thanks for the video. Just took everything off my gt aggressor frame and upgrading everything.. this is exactly what I wanted to know.
Thank you so much Mike, nice to hear man and if you need any questions answered just holler:) Good luck on the build man🙌🙌
I'm totally going to do this on my GT. I'm anti-ball bearing after my rear wheel hub failed after 400 miles. As soon as I build new wheels, im doing this as well. Sweet video as always.
Thank you so much Jim, very nice system and very nice comment😉
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS hmmmmmm
You do realize that these are ball bearings right?
@ Nazih Bitar yep realized but since the housing/cage is completely different and helps with keeping out debris, very good choice and upgrade, but maybe should of noted.:)
@@NazihBitar yes, but there is a huge difference between sealed bearing and loose ball bearings. A sealed bearing is almost a thing unto itself.
One of my favorite videos so far! You guys Rock!
Wow MAF, that is very inspiring man:) thank you I tried hard on it and so glad you enjoyed. Glad we got to get it out there man. Also be sure to watch tomorrows video!!!! I need your vote man, you will understand more tomorrow😁😁😁
Awesome video. I've been doing similar upgrades to my Agressor Pro. Didnt even think of a headset upgrade!
Pops will love the mustard!!!
Love it man and thanks for watching! Def checkout that link, it makes it buttery smooth my man:) Pops is going to enjoy im sure!!!! HA HA will findout Friday for sure and Tuesday hes going to be guzzling!😈😈😈
Yes headset video, I wish I could of watched this earlier but I was mountain biking
Thats a damn good excuse little man! Hey brother if you can have your mom/dad email us please? Got a question jwolfmanc32@gmail.com thanks...
Hahahahaha this was great .... Great tips dudes....
Hope you’re having an awesome weekend 👍👍
Appreciate it guys! Hope y'all had a good one as well!
I don't know why, but every headset I've installed, that top compression ring instruction says the 'split' should be installed to one side (left or right), not the front or rear. I have no idea why or if it's an issue but figured I'd mention it. I assume most of the loading of that tube is in that front/rear plane.
Oh, and I still watched this video even though I've done a bunch of these, so...yeah.
Dad still wins points with me, because dads deserve all the points.
Ha Ha appreciate the info brother! My dad enjoyed the comment LOL!!!
Nice! Great video and explanation! I will leave that for next Spring when I upgrade the fork! Hoping to find something on sale at X-mas!
Thanks man! Yeah we were talking about the holiday sales. With this big increase in bike sales we hope they still have some mark downs.
I just bought that headset! Going on my gt agressor with the new stem and fork!
HELL YEAH!!!! Gonna be a good one man, no complaints here! Also got a new fork going on the GT! Checkout the latest GT upgrade updates video man!! Thanks and good Luck Colten
Very good informative installation video
Thanks Robert, I knew I was a fan of yours!! LOL
“I know I’ve definitely been confused”. 😂
Damn right man, real talk ha ha ha!
Video 10 hrs old and made it to 1k. Woot!!
Hell yeah brother! Thanks for the help I was kinda sweating the idea that it wouldent go anywhere, but.... The WOLFTICK NATION KICKED THAT SH*T INTO ANOTHER GEAR!!!! Thanks for being there man, also checkout Tuesdays video brother, I need your vote once again! You will know what Im talkin about ha ah, later budd
I installed the same headset on my Ironhorse after this review , It had ball bearings and that was the only thing remaining from the old bike .
Dude, send some updated pics!!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I have sent several pics your way . After the installation of the headset , the bike would be all new with the exception of the frame . $ 1200.00 upgrade . A legit down country bike . I can give you the break down of every part used if you will .
Definitely doing this soon !!! Thanks for the video
Thanks so much Cesar! Glad you enjoyed it brotha, now we are going to get him back on Tuesdays video, so be sure to watch, I need your voteLOL
I’m looking forward to you riding the Maxxis Tires in the rear good ears in the front with your new helmet and pads on the trail video with a GT aggressor pro
Oh DAMN! Me too ha ha. Gotta get that video out tomorrow with the soda drinking and then Tuesday the tire showdown video and breakdown. Then after that or that video??? We will see my brother😁😁 love the persistence!
Great video man and loved the homemade tools definitely upgrading my headset
Appreciate you Butch! Very creative sometimes ha ha, glad you enjoyed man:)
To be honest you could make a video on valve cap covers and I would enjoy it lol. Anything to do with MTBing on a channel I enjoy, I am in.
Wow man thanks so much! That's a very cool comment💙 and a very good video idea!!!lol
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS Lol you could do video on people that HATE presta and drill the rims to fit schrader ....yeah I did it on my Fuel Ex love the schrader.
LOL veyr funny man!!! Good idea too! ha ha, be sure to checkout Tuesdays video brother, I need your vote, you will see what im talking about. You will enjoy it! Thanks man goodnight
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS Hey, I have to say the chrome valve caps with the valve stem remover tool on the top are very handy. Especially when using a tubeless setup. You can buy them at any auto parts store.
@ Adam Hmmm.....????? Explain please, im scratching my head :)
I’ll buy that Risk top-cap from you! It’s pretty cool looking.
Man I would send it to ya but I gave it to a sponsor!! He rides as well:) Burris Heat & Air. It really goes with your channel ID
I subbed because of this video. Love the channel keep it up
Well Marc thank you very much my man! Thats too cool and hope we can keep you around LOL:)
Hope your dad is enjoying his pie Good video
Hahaha make sure you watch the video later today, and vote (you will see) haha.
I didn't find that to borrow I found it actually quite interesting
Well that's nice to hear man. Thanks🙏
Planning to upgrade the stock headset on my GT Aggressor Pro to an angled headset, make it feel slacker. Gonna be interesting.
That's gonna be epic! Let us know how it goes and which one you buy!! Good luck
Awesome install, I need a new headset probably
Thanks man, and not right now you dont! Rest that hand my man! You got school Tomorrow!!!!LOL Thanks dude
New subscriber. Love your content guys and keep up the great work!!
Well roni, thank you so much for subscribing and going public with it;) means alot to us here and we appreciate it very much.Hope your weekend was a good one and please be sure to watch Tuesdays video! The new bike and I need your vote on something:):) you will see what I mean. Goodnight
I might well need to be able to do this stuff altogether at home, as “my local bike shop” is a half hour away, or an hour plus by the time I jump through all the hoops needed to go there.
I have a fair number of bicycle-specific tools, lathe, mill, and Tig…. (In addition to health problems that make travel in general “a big deal” - as in it’s mentally and physically costly.)
Completely understand, the Tig may be overkill LOL
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS the Tig is useful in general, I.e. things like the Bike Stand involved *some* welding for its major structure. Then, there are things like, uh, sorta-furniture…
:) Nice
Love your videos! I've watched every one. I'm wondering if you have ever tried one of their 44/44mm headsets? It appears that you can actually install a tapered fork in a straight head tube with one, like the much more expensive Cane Creek. I'm looking to do this on my wife's fat bike but I'd love to hear from someone who has pulled it off first!
Hey Jessie, thanks for the loyalty brother!! Lol Now we have not installed a 44 to 44 but I know exactly what you are talking about. Everyone wants us to and asks to do it to our GT but it's a 34mm....But it would be cool to do so! Let us know if you succeed!! You know there's also a headset out there that adds degrees to your steerer tube!! Makes it way more slack..
Did it change the length of the steer tube? I mean, did the fork fit as before? Like, did u have to use more or less spacers?
It was all good for me man, just placed a spacer in a different spot. But all the same for me.
Now you should learn to use the palm of hand method for packing the bearings with grease. there are videos on the subject and articles about it.
but it's simple,
take seals off using a pick
get grease on the palm of your hand
smear it over the palm
press bearing against the palm at the edge of the grease, then do this over until you see grease come out, and turn swap location of where you press grease into the bearing, repeat this process until whole bearing has been packed with grease, put seals on, wipe off.
Dude thats why I got he sealed bearings!!!! I totally can packing bearing:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS great. 👌
😁
I am thinking of upgrading my headset to on my gt
Get her done son! There's the instructions😉
I'm switching out my Jessica Headset with a FSA headset later this week. I'll still definitely keep the Jessica headset as a backup, but the FSA is blue so should go nice with the other blue components on my bike, I'm still gonna use the black Jessica stem cap though.
No!!!! Don't cheat on Jessica!! 🤣🤣🤣
Just a heads up to anyone who may see this comment- the sealed bearing cartridge actually goes in with the beveled edge facing into the head tube. That’s how it came for me and also how it shows in the images on the item listings. If you look at the inside of the cups you’ll see that it is beveled in there to match the beveled edge of the bearing cartridge. Don’t know if that will make a difference but just thought I’d point that out.
Thanks for the heads up, I could of sworn I installed the correct way. Have to re watch
What was the diameter of the conduit pipe you cut? Not the Outer diameter of the actual pipe but the diameter of the flanges that flare out at the tip. Did you just eye ball it and bend it to the size of the cups? Or measure it with the cups so they don’t flare out too Much or too little ? Thanks bro for any input on that topic 🐔
Thanks for the question brother. Now I just made sure when I cut the pipe that it was even, then I just flared the legs to eyeball it. Making sure it would contact all sides at once. Good luck and hope it goes wellLOL watch them fingers man!
Looking forward the video Maxxis in the Rear
HaHA may have to do that for you bud! Make sure you watch Tuesdays video! we need your next vote!!! You will understand, thank you so much for watching!!!! Cant wait for your next comment Tuesday!
WOLFTICK VIDEOS Looking forward for Tuesday’s video
Love the videos u gotta get the ztto south paw dropper lever budget friendly and works a treat love from the uk 🇬🇧
Dude def gotta get me a new style of lever for sure brother! Thanks for the comment and input. Hope you stick around a bit mate! Chuffed to bitsLOL
WOLFTICK VIDEOS for sure man love the channel
Hell yeah!
Yes this video was not perfect, but it had both bad and good things. but nice angles. and good advice.
Great advice about keeping everything in order on the bench.👌
3:17 you said crown race instead of cup. top crown race, does not exist, crown race means it sits at the crown of the fork.
so it's just the cups.
but a tool for the crown race exist, but you can make it your own for each with a PVC pipe, or use cut a split/gap in it which won't require any tool special to remove. but yours already has a gap, which makes the install easy.
also you called the cups for a race.
but I would have pressed one cup at time, it can be easier, but possible to do it perfectly how you did it.
6:18, Pull apart stem, not really, but I understand what you meant to say.
7:38: you could have just slid it from the other side, which is how it is supposed to be done, but you can't do that, cus there is a big nut at the top,
but I see your home made tool has the fins quite tight, but on the actually tool you buy it is much wider, to fit big headset cups, so your tool won't work for that, you need longer splits and bend the fins more.
like on the tool I have: uniortools.com/eng/product/1681-1-4-head-set-cup-remover
2:49 nice you put grease on there for smooth install. But you called it a steerer tube, it's actually a headtube. Steerer tube is the tube that is pressed into the crown of the fork, which is the tube the stem sits on.
10:42 you forgot to add some grease on the bearing, bearing cup it self where bearing sits, I also put grease at the dust cap, to seal it even better.
11:26 great advice, well explained, good you showed, that you need to put the bike on the ground to tighten the preload properly.
The rest of the terms used were correct.
Appreciate the picking apart brother:) Wouldent expect any less! Thanks for watching and I hope you watched it multiple times ha ha. We got him and make sure you tune in Tuesday for the bike unveil!!!! I need your vote for something, you will see what I mean!
Is this for a taper steer tube? Dont know if you mentioned that.
No actually that is a straight headtube right at 34mm but you can see me install a tapered on the Taff headset video!! Thanks man and if this one didnt help hope that one does!!:)
For the subscribers!
Yes sir! Thanks my man🤘🤘🤘
Nice video, what kind of fork size are the one you were working?? I am new in all this world and only can afford walmart bikes lol. I own a swchinn sidewinder 26 but want to do cheap nice upgrades on it.
Cool man and WELCOME!! They are Lutu forks 120mm travel and have rebound, which is pretty impressive for a budget fork like this, here is a link for your 26" sidewinder:)The fork is just like mine but a 26: version.

Totally awesome video Bro!!!
Thanks andy! Glad you enjoyed it my man😉😉😉
So I want to check out that headset which one did you purchase there's two options black and hollow black?
Got the black, the hollow seems to be a different style but same mechanically. There just trying to reinvent the wheel. lol thanks brother.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS awesome thanks
No problem man and good luck, got the instructions right there LOL also please be sure to watch Tuesdays video!!! I need you vote! You will see what im talking about! Later man
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS will definitely tune in! I got that Headset coming, hopefully alot sooner then the Oct 7th estimated date!! Lol
Good luck brother!!!!
Thanks wolf tick love your videos! Very well detailed explanations. Think the next bet should be papa wolftick shaving down the beard 🤣
That might be asking for too much 🤣 but hey a bets a bet
Love the IDEA!!!! But you can ask him LOL:) speaking of bets and being proven wrong, please watch tomorrows video man! I need your vote! You will see what I mean!!!!😂😂😂
He will kill me 🤣🤣 lol
Never come between a man and his beard!
I always watch your new videos brother! We shall see what is in store for tomorrow thou! Stay safe my guy.
Thanks Abraham love the comment ha ha! also we were without internet sorry it took so long!
And good year in the front
It is coming soon brother! Just for you SAM:)
That was a very informative video
Thank you so much Mike! That was a first for me and I try to kinda do a sorta how to because I have learned by trial and error but very thankful it came across well and and people are supporting it. Thank you for being one of them and hope you watch Tuesdays video man, the new bike is here and I need you to vote on something! You will see what I mean.
Mr Wolfman, fly fishing. Lol.
Awesome video bud!!!
Hey thanks man! I'm glad you liked it. Make sure you watch the video on Tuesday, and please vote (you will see what I mean) it's going to be fun hahaha.
If you're re-using the fork, is there any reason to change the star in the tube? Are the bolts pretty standardized?
There is really no reason. The bolts are all the same size, but when you take the fork off, be sure to hit the steerer tube with your hand a couple of times. If you hear a rattle sometimes the star nut has come apart a little. You should change of you hear that, but it's only happend once to us so far.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS awesome information. Thank you. I was going to just replace bearings but am going to replace the headset.
Wolf nation I need help I have a Axum dp and I wanna go cheap tubeless what tire do I need and can I keep my stick rim? Also I didn’t know you guys were down road from petti Jean or are you closer to pinnacle?
Hey brother hopefully the nation can weigh in! Let us k ow of you need some affiliate links, now we are closer to petit Jean, really wish petit Jean had some trails!!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS yes that would be helpful with some affiliate links . I just don’t know if it’s worth going tubeless or not . Who knows maybe one day I might see u on the trails
For sure man, checkout the tubeless setup we went with on the GT, it was a little ghetto but there are affiliate links to what we used in the description:) Also check these tires out, they are GREAT!! Affiliate link-www.ebay.com/itm/284367202189?epid=26020419024&hash=item42359b278d:g:fO8AAOSwH9RgYAEs&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5338684594&customid=NextBars&toolid=10001&mkevt=1
I have failed a number of times trying to replace my bearings on my GT aggressor Sport. The cone shaped stack part keeps on sliping making it all come lose over and over again. I have contacted GT but I even got wrong S.H.I.S measurements from them.
Where the same Headset. But mine is still at sorting facility, my MTB is PHANTOM QUEST 27.5 2017model. And i dont know if it fits the 34mm headset.
Hmm... now not sure but by looking at it I think it will fit:) Hope it does and good luck, chances are better than none at all:)
Still dont really get what the benefit of changing the headset out is. In my BMX days, all the ballers had a Chris King headset. Thing cost more than my wheels. I still dont get what benefit it added to the bike. Can you explain?
Mine came with cheap components, not just the ball bearing ring, but also thin gaskets that break easily. Didn't think much of wanting to change it until I upgrade my front fork. Now I got a nice fork with a very cheap headset.
i bought a risk headset today for 26cad. im gonna just try to hammer the ew cups in and see how that goes 😂
Lol dude be careful!!! Ha hagood luck brother and thanks for watching man. Hammer?? What are you me a couple of months ago??😂😂
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS haha we all gotta start from somewhere 😂
What is the size of the headset? I'm a bit confused. My bike is also GT Aggressor Pro. Thanks!
Well Jeff, it is a 34mm, checkout the affiliate links in the description! Thanks man
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thanks! Stay safe.
Nice
Thanks brother:) Glad you watched LOL, it is not really our thing but....The NATION VOTED ON IT!!
I noticed when you backed off the press the cup on top rotated. Is that normal/ok?
Did it really? I just pulled it apart recently and it is still tight. Hmmm...But to answer the question, you should put some electrical tape around the cup if infact it does move.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS around 9:35-9:37. It’s slight but you can watch the letter rotate as you loosen the but.
I am new to this. Can somebody help me understand the sizing on head sets? So im looking at a 34mm steerer straight. So with a head set do you order a 34mm headset? Im new apologies as im trying to learn by not ordering the wrong stuff 🎉
Hey brother yes you will need a 34mm headset. It is confusing, especially when it comes to headset vs steerer tube. The difference is there is a headtube which fits 2 cups (headset) and there is a steerer tube, which is the part of the fork that slides in the cups or headtube.

@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thank you guys you are teaching me alot.
I got here by a cheap camera video, looking for a basic tripod mount camera for POV video for shooting Sports, but I happen to be a wanabee bike guy, raleigh talus 2 and cannondale Contro
Hahaha I know the feeling. We are glad you stopped by. I don't know Cannondale very good, but that Talus 2 I believe we were considering for a while, it was just a little too expensive for us. Man we hope you subscribe and maybe go back and watch the Budget Upgrades Update #3 a couple of videos ago so you will know what is going on with this opener, and the one in the morning haha. It is sort of a told you so father and son situation. If you do, make sure you vote on the mornings video. Thanks man.
I get it bro, contro commuter not my style, fender lefty bike but with hydro brakes it doesnt have any time on it
We might do a bike like that some day haha, but we hardly ride on the streets.
What's the length and degree of your stem Bro? TIA

Will the GT cap fit on this instead of the star?
Yes Sir! Or you can go with a jessica 34 to 34?? Its got a cool cap as well.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I just really dig the GT one.
how has this headset held up
I think you watched the Friday's video right? It's still on there.👍
nice headset AT HOME
Appreciate it brother! We got her done🙂
I made a rookie move when upgrading the “temissor”, if gotten very confused with the headset set up, maybe u can help and im in a time crunch.... i order the 34mm jessica headset buuuut once i took apart the steer column on the temissor ive realized 34mm my be way too small.... HELP!? lol
Let me save you some time when u decide to upgrade the “temissor” forks, it will take a 44mm-44mm x1-1/8” jessica headset lol !
Ha ha thanks brother, was just about to reply ha ha. Sorry I was teaching class!!! Thanks for the time saver though very thoughtful!
Gotcha
Lol glad y’all made this video
So happy you watched!! Lol thanks man. It was a much needed video!
That's the same design as the Jessica. All China mfg. use same factories and multiple brands. Bolany, Bucklos, ZTZ etc.
Agree
The Risk brand of headset is one of the better cheaper headsets on the market...
You can buy a spare headset for the price of cane creek or hope.
Watch you guys pour concrete if that was the videos you were making. Enjoy your dynamic
Dude that would be a sh*t load of dad just complaining and yellin at me!!!!LOL 😂😂😂 Thanks brother and hope you watch Tuesdays video!!! It will be the new bike initial review and a viewers voting!!!
What year and size is GT Aggressor?
We think it is a 2019 and the size is Medium 17" with 27.5 rims.
Ah I'm second this time ;)
Haha! Come on man speed it up!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS clicked the notification as soon as I got it 😆
Cool man thank you! I know you are loyal, now be sure to check into Tuesdays video with the new bike, I need another vote from you!!!
Hey, what video editor do you use?
I use to use sony Vegas but now we have an imac and use I movie, kinda simple but it gets the job done for now.
Can you use the headset on a semi integrated headset like the trek marlin 6 2020?
Yes, but I am not sure on the Headset size....It may be a 34mm but possibly a 44mm. I would ask a bike shop to be sue man
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS my bike is 44mm headset 1 1/8.
Gotcha, here is two affiliate links one for the Risk but you will have ot wait and a Jessica that we use all the time:) Good luck man

Will that work with the stock forks
Yes sir, it really butters up the front end.
What's this crap? Haha, kidding Wolfman. Great video guys. I made my cup removal tool out of an old seat stem.
🤣🤣🤣 I was like what the hell what is Ram5ey thinking!!! Lol appreciate it brother
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I'll watch whatever you guys put out. Keep em coming.
🙌🙌🙌🙏 well we will see you Tuesday, you will love the beginning!
Will the headset size be the same for my gt aggressor xc3 2009 model?
I'm guessing if it is a threadless then yes?? Maybe?? Lol most likely a 34mm man, it's pretty universal for lower end bikes. Let is know if you order it, if it doesn't fit we will but it off you👍👍 thanks man
Did you get yours sorted? I've got a 2009 GT aggressor xc2, that I will be giving to a bloke in my area whose had a tough time. But don't know what size headset and bits I need.
yo can you send me the some old upgrade parts that you did on the gt aggressor because I recently got mine but don't have the money to upgrade it.
Man congrats on the new GT man! When it comes to parts we use everything especially associated with the GT. The parts go on the Villotti or other 27.5 stuff. Sorry man:(
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS nah its totally fine my parents won't let me spend money on at lol but it did come with tubeless tires!!
@@samgivner9010 hey well that's a plus! If anything "exyta" comes around we will holler at you man! Thanks for understanding brother👍
No type of lube is needed?
Well there are conflicting story on this:) I use grease on the crown race and bearings, but I dont put any on the cups.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS
Ok.... I was just curious, going to start a mountain bike build soon, looking up how to's....
Thank you....
@chris gonzales Good luck and let us know how it goes.👍
Who eats what now? We got you the 1k haha!!!
You will find out in the morning hahaha. Make sure you vote (you will see on what) it will be fun to watch😬🤢🤮🤣🤣🤣🤣 .
🤦🏻♂️Well now I want to make that upgrade
Hahaha it is an addiction. Well it's a pretty good and cheap upgrade, so as long as you think you can do it, it's worth it. Thanks for the comment.
Mate, is its gt 2020? Whats is your rear hubs?
Hey brother, not sure on the size man? I believe its a 2019 model. The 2020 I believe have freewheels so if you are looking at changing the hubs that would be a great decision. But sorry man I dont know the size of the hub????
WOLFTICK VIDEOS thanks man appreciate!! Because im planning to changes from 10s to 11s,, i hope the 11s cogs will fit on my hubs 10a
Oh ok duh! you have a 10 spd so obviously you have a freehub! :) 11spd should fit no problem, had a guy try a 12 and he said no go! But 11 is the most man. Hope you get her figured out and hope it goes good man, let me know
WOLFTICK VIDEOS ahahaha ok i will go on 11s slx group set ehehehe,, i push that one,, thanks man have a good day and godbless
@@jhordanmaniego4381 I have the same bike but 2017 model. I'm running a 1x12 and it worked. Good luck.
Dude we got it no prob
Coming out hot brother!!!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS yea we are don't worry no apologies coming from our side haha
HELL YEAH BROTHER!!!! We made it man and thank you for putting it out there ha ha! Now Checkout Tuesdays video man! I need your vote, you will see what I am talking about my man! Thanks Dakota
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS hell yea I'm excited brother man. I got some stuff on the way also pretty stoked.
Way cool man! I have been waiting for so long nowLOL
Size Headset sealed bearing
Would this fit 2020 gt aggressor comp?
Thanks,
Well we can't say for sure, but I would think so since the frame is so similar. The procedure would be the same, you just have to make sure the size is. My guess is that it is the same size. Here is a affiliate link for one that is similar, in america, and should work. rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FJESSICA-34mm-Headset-1-1-8-Threadless-MTB-Road-Bike-Sealed-Bearings-Headset%2F123822253056%3F_trkparms%3Dispr%253D1%26hash%3Ditem1cd461a400%3Ag%3AGNMAAOSwvudeDELB%26enc%3DAQAFAAACcBaobrjLl8XobRIiIML1V4Imu%252Fn%252BzU5L90Z278x5ickkp2NA0WuhQytmt4dbStg00OTY%252FA5nP8pH2zCy07s3mL3EbOXuvcT99hvuan%252BT7T9RPKLLzJx%252B%252FGKb64nzNs383vnPply9n6u31iWC0Xn4AWKF9DjeLbq%252FpZrTr08K8JBxGQCCxqNnbdvfZVEdEKFydRy0EV%252BzKQseqDdUM0p9AY67B1pUvpeqDutSWB%252BtUIV5j20ObEfpIae1kb3uPTs00UNeWKbg%252FRMNejaHRBKzKYkg4%252BfQmT2vaXFIbht%252BatkRHOiU7Np5n8amBJnikYTSXeg6dG4yXrwIsW9YWAbzjmcQu9k1V9aKxmLH5aK8lRA%252FicghJrUM9K9HNYAvIKo%252FofFMXZaUe0bOuB9VjXdLxAOdL2Z0ZqBJLE9%252B9Js8g4idoyiHtjPDWJ2ZSXojkXVhM47OUd2X77Y%252BRG6Xk%252BqGe8M%252Fb%252F49VksAhXZ6IRc%252F3qn%252BKyMNrAqnpOY7Z3xF52DMICN3M7hRfdLCqYuWoq92u0HvWFY9Mo8iXtd4Vi31e3sdmbawOAaNHxka5XuCYafEjV7%252BX%252FYITWLPJ06vig8Dcd2QYYwUso9%252B8JLBoxVkXRrnDJHCVVSr3WYaSyYmvBoA5pP%252BcfUim6K77RuHTn4FpX76k15oB1vN6%252FDOJkg0TP2np80qUCTw%252F9T%252Ft7%252BJmpovyWpjNNaX0hq8EYFf7RN3pBS3iW66%252BqBCh%252FBvF4AiBbbHY7xeYoCMvj8F%252B9sIDcyOTNZZsF%252FA8v91vpOaByyHJYmQ3eVTjSTfgWeVFDSa%252FxD4r3KiaS6vBnutsaWE%252F1eNhw%253D%253D%26checksum%3D12382225305674d3e80189174bc6bab7d3c3915bfd42&campid=5338684594&toolid=10001&customid=Headset 34mm
Your welcome. Hope it helps.
Do you have your original wheels for your GT aggressor if so do you wanna sell them to me !!
Sorry man the GT still has the original wheels on it, I just took the stickers off. If your talking about the one on the wall, it's a bent one that Dick's replaced under the no sweat protection plan. If you notice we don't do wheel set videos, it's because they are too expensive. Sorry brother, I wish we could help.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS hey man, I bought a "budget" set of WTB i25 wheels from Amazon for $225 and they came with 2.3 Maxxis High Rollers. Also came with tube tape and tubeless presta valves!
