Thanks for all the comments boys. This is my bike that I brought in to epic BMX. It took me about a year to find it online, but I finally did. It was my very first BMX bike when I was 11 years old. Epic BMX did a great job.
You chose master Phu Vu to put finger prints on it. Love the color!
Dude that made my day!! Thanks for being on our channel!
I almost bought this bike too it was on my watch list. Best color for early GTs.
@donniebrasco4114 the new gt also come in neon colors I just picked up 26 proseries neon red looks like highlighter orange.
Coincidentally I was looking at that same bike. I almost bought it. I got that same exact vertigo for my 11th birthday in 1992. I remember I couldn’t ride it because hurricane Andrew hit us here south Florida. Couldn’t wait till the storm passed so could ride my new bike. Enjoy the bike!!!
GT/Dyno bike builder here. Love your videos. To answer your question. I do cables over the top of handle bar.
Love it! Send us pics of your bike to @alfredomancuso and @_epicbmx on instagram!
After watching some of your videos I just figured out that my parents live right on the other side of Heil across the freeway overpass. I need to come by and scope out the shop. I grew up racing and watching Rad. I need to get my old school childhood GT back!
No way! Neighbors!!
I can't await to watch your next video , im enjoying it , always funny.
Happy to hear that! We’re trying to stay consistent with videos every Thursday!
I have a tough time deciding between redoing these bikes the way I want them and leaving them original…..but I think you have helped me decide
You just made our day!
Love this series and wish I lived closer for shop beers!
Best colorway for early 90s GT. 🤙
Like when u guys work on these old bikes. I have a similar Vertigo. Unknown year but it has quill stem and OG bulldog brakes
The big homie always doing it right. Love those wheels on that bike
I like under and under on the break cables when I do a surfer I don’t want the brake cable in the way but cool bike!
That’s a solid tip!
This was my 1st bmx bike at 12. It's heavy asf but super cool looking
Keep it up Phu!
Nice video short and sweet
It's all about the little details.
The devils in the details
Question, have you guys covered Gyro cable lengths? (Upper cable) Been looking to add a odyssey gyro cable but theres three different lengths 390, 425, 460 mm. Lmk 🙏🏾
I look at 30 mm as my thumb nail side to side so your adding one thumb two thumbs three thumbs in length
That’s a great suggestion for video we should make. If you want to reach Phu hit him up on instagram @_epicbmx
@@AlfredoMancuso thank you appreciate it 🙏🏾
Thats one sweet GT, too bright for me 😎
I have a 91 gt performer with same splater frame but red
Where are you located I have a Chrome BMX Diamondback
You could work on that bike even if the lights were off, color is very bright. Loyal fan of Phu and Alfredo.
🍻🍻🍻
🍻
Where are you located
“Tri Flow Superior Lubricant” if anyone is wondering what he puts in his brake cable housing
This was my first new bike when I was like 10, it got stolen a few weeks later out of my back shed 😢
That would have ruined your year there a nice bike
@@anthonymasluk2295 it had this crazy new chameleon kinda paint that made it look silver/blueish/bronze/or green depending on the light. And we even saw a kid at the flea market riding around on one, found a cop and the cop said he wouldn't confront the kid unless we had the serial number with us. My dad went up and chatted the kid up, and asked him about the bike but nothing came of it.
Sorry to hear that I have had a bike stolen one as a 7 year old lost my blue schwinn predator, later a guy running from cops stole my powerlite p61 coqpit full custom build I was devastated, but went for walk around the neighborhood next morning and found it fully intact just dumped on the sidewalk, I couldn't believe my luck. My guess is my bike was fast enough for the guy to get away and Ditch it. Now I keep bikes inside
No don’t add any paint to it leave it natural
poor guy needs to put that seat down and get rid of those chicago lean on those bars. then it is dope.
You definitely didn’t grow up in this era. Millennials. 🙄
@@donniebrasco4114 ya i grew up before this era. i grew up in the 70s and besides that i make bmx videos. i am over 50 and i still link tailwhips into combos. i got 99 bmx videos out of my 1400 videos. i race bmx. i do flatlland. i do street. i ride park. and i have videos doing it all. this summer i did not make bmx videos as i am so busy working and doing home repairs. but last summer i did make over 15 bmx videos. and my featured video on my page. is a rad tribute video that the guy from the movie rad as seen. he talked to me on the phoe about the video i did. so yes i had gt bikes from this era. but i was ridinng way way before that. i have had many gt bikes. and i got a 1000 dollar gt that i use in my videos also.
@@donniebrasco4114still looks pretty dumb
I rather go under the bars on a freestyle bike. When I step on the bars, I don't step on the brake cable
I’m gonna try this now!
@@jellis7042 I am with you on this I also go under under so the cables are not in the way while standing on the bars!
Man I’m looking for a specific frame. It’s a premium guttershark frame
vintage
1st baby!!!
The BMXmuseum is great for parts and info. But a group of clowns there have made that place annoying. A few azkizzers there were able to gain moderator status but are as bad as the trolls. They are among the handful of people there that use it daily as their own personal social media site posting off-topic pics, memes, typing with emojis and their political garbage. They see it as some sort of badge of honor in trying to post as many posts as possible. Those are the adults now who were the annoying kids or jerks that would hang around the group but nobody really liked back in the day.
