Phu getting us ready for a test at the end of the vid.
I've been a mechanic all my life and I learn something from Phu every time thanks Alf
And that's a DYNO frame baby !!
Yup
😎😎😎 1987 Dyno Pro Compe 👍
I wonder if he has the dual guide forks and stamped pretzel bars for it as well??? 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
Dyno detour or regular compe not pro
Pro compe no cable guides tabs welded the cables go inside the fork like dual holes drilled into the fork

Talked about bmx bottom bracket sizes.
THIS HELP ME SO MUCH.
Ive been searching and searching but i couldnt find a good explanation but this is spot on!
Thank youuu
Thank you Alf I wish I could have watched this before I ordered all my parts but I did research on the cranks and bb I was using before I ordered luckily
Same lol i ordered parts & got lucky it was the right ones
Came in the ship yesterday with my son, getting back in to bikes as a 40 year old. Thanks Master Phu for all this knowledge man!
This si a beautiful video. Thank you from dropping that knowledge. I'm doing my first swap
Glad we could be of help!
could have deff used this video a month ago when I switched frames but still great video!!
I remember my first bmx frame it was an American bb I bought a euro converter kit and ran some euro bearing..got a spanish bb frame now
Same here I got the conversion cups and my first new 3 piece were the primo dog bone or powebite cranks. Then later got some odyssey black widow cranks. I love the color but hate the creaking lol
I cant even afford a sealed bearing i use the ball bearing ones
@@kristianacearasula3085 you cant afford a 30 dollar bearing?
@@JoelisSc33p0 apparently no as here in my country dollar to my currency exchangs is so high $1 is equal to 50 of my currency and with that I'd buy a cheap ball bearing or o $2 bearing instead that i can use for a shor time being
This is THE most informative video I've watched when it comes to bottom brackets and spindles. You just taught me so much awesome info and gave me answers to questions I've spent literal days sweeping the internet for!!! Fucking love you dude 🤙🏻
Do a video on chain alignment in respects to the sprocket and driver.
Either GT performer or diamondback venom 🤔 i know I'm close on that white frame its really bothering me now...
It’s a gt
It's a Dyno
do one for cranks and please include how to choose the right amount of spacers! My last build I had to set up and pull my crank arms off 3 times because my cranks were too close to the chainstays!
Standard
dont tighten the cranks before checking you on crack if you did it 3 timees
I learned all this in one summer. Good to know so you can work on your own bike. Spindle length does matter on outboard euros. Because their might not be enough biting area for the crank arms. The Profile website has all the recommended sizes. But that’s mostly just racing bikes.
I should of watched that video before buying all my parts for my Zircus frame. I didn’t even know what an Euro bb is until I watched the video. Thank you master 🙏🏼
Now you know for the next one!
Thursday’s have become my favorite days lolol
3:24 The Out board BB reminds me of the Shimano Hollowtech II BB for MTB's
Its basically the same yeah. I'm just confused now cos i have TWO supposedly MID BB bicycles BUt they have the same style of BB as the Euro inboard so i'm wondering if it depends on where you buy teh bike what you get with it. I'm from teh UK so wondering if Stolen fit UK frames for inboard euro. Which would be nice cos it would mean i could slap a outboard hollowtech on it and have auch better bike haha.
Thank you 😊
Finally saw the vid on Instagram and waited till the upload
These vids are dope guys💯💯
The white frame is a Dyno but I don't think you knew what it was lol.
Gt dyno frame had one stolen when i was a kid in middle school
You just saved me from buying 300$ worth of parts in the Wrong size. Thank you so much. Your vids agave saved me is so many occasions
✊🏽✊🏽💜
After watching 10 other videos I finally found the information I needed to identify my older BMX. LOL Thanks!
I love how I keep watching these videos even tho I can’t afford a bmx😂😭
Keep watching and u could win a bmx. Alf does donate his old bikes from time to time
@@cfmechanic he does? Aight cool can’t wait hope I win when he does
Do a headset bearing differences video..old-school vs new school vs any other type new headsets..great video..
This guy is money!! Knowledge is everything
🙌🏻🙏🏻
Great explanation. You explained it better than anyone
now I understand everything ! ty !
Dyno Pro Compe.
nice and clear
OGs know the 52mm with the cage bearings for the OPC!
Yo that new epic shirt is pretty dope. Damn phu looks drained must of been alot of phone calls and questions. Would be good vid showing how to use spacers to fit frame. Seems simple but I'm sure there is something to be learned. Never knew line meant left. Thanks again phu and alf for making it happen.
Pimpin' ain't easy. Phu is on point.
Euro is English bottom bracket or BSA (which was an arms company). It's a threaded 68mm
My Redline flight cranks have a 19.8mm bottom bracket axle.
All the infos I needed jumpacked in 1 video.. Very underrated.. Thanks bro..
❤❤❤❤ I watch all your videos
Thanks! Learned a lot!
👊🏻👊🏻
1:11 On The BSD frame that's Mid BB
Phu had me messed up for two days. On my profile euro bottom bracket the line went on the right (drive) side. I went to the bike shop to have the threads traced and they put the thing right on by hand just by putting the cup with the line on the right side . . .
What about the spline on the axle ? They have all type of different spline and shapes to fit certain crank arm .
Great video! I have an old 'Scorpion Breakdancer' frame I am restoring from my childhood and it has the American style BB with loose bearings. My question is, can I use the same system but with closed bearing cartridge? Can anyone provide links if this set-up is available? I don't really have the know-how and knowledge right now to order the correct parts. Cheers!
Wait the little line means left? Looking at the frame's headset from the front, or from sitting on the frame looking down on the bottom brackets?
Are all bearings sealed now? I noticed my bottom bracket is a sealed mid 19mm, why is "sealed" specified?
There is also a 24mm spindle too. LOL. Rock on Phu!
Already know about bbs but still very informal. Love your vids!
I have a dirt jumper,the bike is norco rampage 2 2020,my last cranks got messed up and got them odf and right now im thinking if buying a european bb inboard one.,my frame is threaded but how am i sure its gonna fit? And how can i be sure the axle is gonna be long enough for the cranks to fit?
These videos are actually so helpful
You should give us the advantages and disadvantages of them. Which is the best to run?
How can I remove a bottom bracket after the outer ring broke off?
It is stuck in the frame with no way to fit a wrench to it.
How do u measure width of the spindle? So I can figure out how to find the right size for the mid bbs i already have?
I was wondering can I put a odessy thunderbolt on a American bottom bracket?
“I’m too cheap to open this because no one would buy it”
He got that Vietnamese shop owner mentality
@Jon Smith I wouldn't care honestly so long as it's not scratched I would still pay full price not like he is licking the oreos and then giving it to me.
@Jon Smith i'd say it's fine if he'd install it for free cause installing a bb is a pain in the ass without the right tools
For me its fine coz im the type of person that cant say no to anything thats why i always get scammed hahahaha
You forgot the random 20mm spindle which is always fun when that comes up. It’s not coming at all but 20 years ago it was out there on 8 spline cranks. Or the short lived Maltese BB in the early 10’s which was a euro bb without the threads or the aluminum shell on the bearings so you just pressed in 2 on each side euro size bearings. Remember that time in the early 00’s when some companies were trying to push euro’s in the freestyle world? Kinda wish that caught on tbh
You are right , I was thinking the same.
And you forgot to mention 24mm spindles. Sometimes information slips out of mind.
Got a good one for u, I have a earlier 2000 Brooklyn machine work launch pad, freestyle frame, but I noticed some pics tht ppl are using bmx cranksets, I want to install it on my frame. I can’t used a regular 144bcd, they don’t take the big chainring. Thts why ppl are using the bmx crankset cuz of smaller chain rings. I’m thinking euro out board.
Brilliant 👌
Wish I could buy that dyno frame 😍
thanks so much so informative love it thanks you got in depth I know nothing I sell bike parts but used so now I know what they mean Euro or american bb?! thanks so much
Can you replace bearings on a EU BB?
still need that shirt. Dope info man! And now my HARO BLACKOUT has like a 32mm spindle. So much info to learn.
Thank you well explained
very informative I have that Octane 1 frame and my BB just broke!
Great video!!!
You should've started with the Euro BBs (intr. & exter.)
Plus if the Euro Outboard is bigger, are the thread size the same?
You never explained that, but I agree bigger is stronger.
🙋 Still confused here!
Luv your vids Sir 🙏🏻
Is the white frame is a late 80's early 90's GT Pro Performer ?
Close. Dyno.
The drop in the top tube at the seat tube gives it away.
Excellent video! For the aluminum tube spacer that slides onto the spindle, is that tube length always perfect? It seems that aluminum tube length must be perfect, or the bearings will either rattle, or be compressed. Are frame bottom bracket widths always the exact same, so that aluminum tube always fits perfectly?
Thnx... Subscribed.
Phu didn't talk about the bb shell width. The middle spacer didn't fit snug on my frame, so do I just add more small spacers or something? are there different sizes for the shell width?
Hi I've got a free agent eluder 7005 would that have a screw in?
Yes thank you for the video very useful info 🙏🏻 my bike is definitely American...
Question: what do i do if my euro bottom bracket cups come out and wont go back in? Is there something i can buy to repair this issue?? I need helppp!!
So I would like to know how to tell how many spacers you need when installing cranks! Also on the press in bearings which face gets installed to the inside of the bracket or does that matter?
If I have American bb 19 mm can I get the bearings out and put 22 mm for 2 piece cranks
What free coaster do u recommend
I recommend the odyssey clutch v2
Shadow optimized Freecoaster!
Odyssey v2 clutch
🤔
Odyssey v2 clutch or if your on a tight budget rant moonwalker ll
White frame is a dyno?
That white frame is a Dyno
You the man my dude
This video was packed with great info 🤓👍! My current bearings that came with my bike tend to clink when I'm usually standing to pedal. Something's definitely not right because I'm getting a slight wiggle/loose feeling whenever that "cli😬nk" shows it's ugly head. I now know that I'm looking for a 22mm mbb set.
Nice one sir Alfredo sir...that was so informative content...👏👏👍👍👍
Great info
I'd love to build up that dyno compe frame. Spanish bb on my fly Tierra, mid on my fit long , American on my '83 se quadangle, external euro on my trek Roscoe
Can u make a vid on how to space a bottom bracket
very informative!! Thanks!!
What size is your bottom bracket?
22mm Mid
Good info. New to BMX. I rebuilding an old miraaco bmx. The old bottom bracket and bearings are all separate, can I upgrade to one of those pressing in bracket that have bearings built in? Mid 19
Nice to see an Octane 01 Zircus.
So if I have a Spanish BB set for my bmx I cant get new ones?
yoo this helped soo much, but im still confused for my application, i have a 96 mongoose super 24 with a one piece crank, i was going to buy the adapter to euro, but can i just use an american BB instead, like the silver one you showed here for the old school frame?
Well if your frame is american you just need the american bottom bracket. No need for adapters
So I got some Rant Spanish 22mm botton bracket for my wethepeople utopia hybrid frame & I noticed one side of the bearing has a red dust cover & the other side is black, is it directional or does it matter wich side is on the out side? Thanks
so cool, thanks
can you do dyno tell me some more dyno ty
Are all mid bottom brackets sealed bearings? I know american bottom brackets have sealed and unsealed. I'm ordering a bike and it says it has a mid bottom bracket, doesn't say anything about the bearings. It does for the headset though.
Can midd bb frame fit in american bb?
Threads on the left...man's a genius lmao
What size is a btm brackett for a 09 pk ripper
2:07 Spanish BB come on the T1 Ruben frame and the fly frames back in the day they blew out easily because the bearing being two small on a 22mm BB so they got discontinued and Mid 22mm was born 🔥👍
Mid 19 was the standard to begin with.
Kink did Spanish on all or almost all their bikes in the early to mid 10’s. That’s the only company I can recall messing with them that much.
@@robertlund5694 19mm come in first when bmx moved away from the American BB one of my first bmx's had that bb with 1pc cranks it was a dimond back at the time
Epic needs an online store
How can I see if my spindle is 19 or 22? Pls reply
That's what I was just wondering. If I don't have a 19 or 22 to compare it to how do I tell the size?
Use a digital caliper. They're a cheap and useful tool.
I have a “No touch” Autum frame. It uses a Spanish bottom bracket. Can I use a different BB?
