These dudes at Epic need their own channel or atleast more content, i can watch Phu all day
Do they have a website? They have a nice selection of parts.
@@sole__doubt no, they have a instagram and Facebook, but they don't display their para, you can always call
@@LordFarrquaad Yeah I dont use social media sites except for youtube. Its really a shame they don't have a website though, they have one of the biggest selections Ive ever seen anywhere. I'd be a great customer :)
@@sole__doubt true true, they're a small shop but a website would be great. Here's their number if you wanna give em a call. 714-848-0888
@@LordFarrquaad thanks I might just call them

“I’m not gonna talk about the pieces of bars” talks about pieces of bars 😂. Man of wisdom
This is my favorite part, learning today. I stop riding 20 yrs ago, just got back into it because of these ride outs in my town, but mainly 29ers tho.
Love these types of videos. MORE please.
Love these uploads. This was my local shop when I lived in OC. Really great, knowledge people running this shop and incredible selection.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge Alfredo!!! I appreciate that you take the time to make all these videos. I've learned a lot from your channel. Thanks again sir!
I love that soft music in the background
How do you have so many parts? Every bikeshop in my area is out of almost everything. I even been lied too saying they had parts i was looking for just to get me in their shop.
Love this Epic vids. Thanks for sharing
I’ll try that. Thank you
Love these Days🔥🔥💯
Broke my arm riding my bmx my moms sold it right after sometimes I miss riding
Dang that sux man..
Rip bruh
Hope u get a new bike
Like clockwork, I was just thinking about when you'd put up a new video, then I get a notification. You da man Alf!
Great information!
Loving these vids. 💪💪
Amazing content 🍻
I’m running S&M Hoder highbars with 53mm Profile push stem with spacers plenty of room and feels like butter
Very Informative
Love your videos!!
Love them Phu’s
Yeah man, these bars with top load and then pull barrs back a little, straight with forks. 21 tt and i almost loop out too. Feels awesome
Ethan and phu is the best thing on youtube to wAtch i be wAiting for epics video to drop these is the best thing in this f..kin life... #THE #BEST
love the vid, very true , its all on preference , what ever floats the riders boat !
This was a needed vid
Good stuff. Waiting for another video bro
This is good stuff bro!
Upgrading Super73 Z1 handlebars.
Got the Redline Flight 3/7 Bar CrMo BMX handlebars🔥🔥🔥

6:57 Reach on the stem matters as well i've got a 53mm reach stem because i'm tall and its a top load and ive got 9.25 rise bars give you more leg room 👍
i really like the epic chill vlogs
My forks have been cut down so im going to take this advice and get new ones and run the stem higher, cheers boys
these guys are out in Huntington Beach I recommend stopping at this shop it’s amazing
A day at epic never gets old
We used to old school, raise the goose neck clamps in neck. to raise the bars higher then stock. Fun Good times
Loooove your videos man!
When is phu going to bless us with the ability to buy epic shirts!!
Never miss a Brochachi vlog
I understand everything he is saying it’s all true!!
he really knows his stuff
Wow! That’s some BMX Yoda type shit! I want to learn more from vids like this! Thanks! 🙏🏾
I run a 10" bar 15mm headset cap and shadow treymone top load. No matter if i change to 20mm headset cap and 9.5 bars, nothing feels quite as good as the 10's and 15m cap
Good stuff
I remember when 28x8 handlebars were big back in the day and 10" and 11" rise bars are to tall I stick around 8" to 8.75" rise front load stem inline with the same angle as my fork.
Liking the bike info vids hadn’t thought about bar flex but yeah also I feel bottom bracket height changes how high your bars feel if your bbh goes down a 1/4 inch it will feel like your bars are that much bigger anyway keep the good work coming enjoying the bike tech
Absolutely! I went to a higher bottom bracket height and had to get taller bars so I wasn't hunched over
I like the frame
Quality does make a difference in flex. I switched from stock fit 9.25 bars to S&M elevenz and the elevenz are way more rigid and snappy.
I just ordered 11" shadow vultus
Shoutout to Phu for dropping knowledge for the young guns 😤
Please make video on hard chrome plated parts vs normal spray paint
Epic!!!
4pc bars are stiffer than 2 pc Fu....2pc bars are softer and vibrate more.
4pc bars also have more spots to crack
@@ryancolbert182 aye yess
i just like the aesthetics of the 2 piece bars lol
Jay 2Z agreed!
Noti squad 🔥
BMX school day again yey
Nice shop! Stacked with parts what I like to see! Where is this shop?
Thanks man! Epic bmx is at 16483 Magnolia St. Westminster, CA
I've learned something new today.. Thanks for the information 🙌🏼
i run 9.35 bars, 33mm rise, and a full set of spacers, and i switched to a higher bb height, and im thinking of running bigger bars now
I’ve been feeling it in my back on longer rides, might get a top load if it will help
I know what bars I'm getting next year. Definitely not gonna SLEEP on it.
Heavens gate? Mimicking? Sleeper? You guys are awesome, thanks
I just bought a SE Flyer 29" & im looking for new bars. Im 6ft & im wanting bigger bars for more comfy ride. Im looking at S&M hoder 9.5 bars. You think those would be to big for a 29" cruiser? Im wanting the best ride i can get
I wish this bike shop was near me
4 piece bars are my all time fav like brandon begin runs I've noticed. Tbh he's the one who actually made me wanna start using them lol have a good day bro:) be safe
So you've just noticed he runs them but he inspired u to get them ?
@@danmacgolf i ment to say is yes I know he runs them. But didn't know he has his own signature scumbag bars. My bad. I don't know a ton about bmx bikes. I know a little that's all.
Animal big four bars aka scerbos aka gts are the ONLY 4piece bars worth their weight everything since is a shitty copy
all newest ones especially strangers are disgusting & unnecessary jmo
What does fu think about the tree bikes hub that was supposed to be laced 5 Cross stronger right?
I came in last Halloween to buy the elevens for my walmarto bike. Thats when grandpa vu said I’m not a fan cuz I haven’t watched every video and memorized it lol🌵
I have 8.25 rise bars, topload stem and 1inch spacer. Its good for 5'6 tall alf?
What size would you recommend me cutting my bars down to so I can learn how to do bar spins? Every time I try to do one it hits my stomach. They’re to long.
Depends on your height, proportions, frame size and so on...
Just start with taking off a quarter or maybe a half inch per side and see how it feels. Don't overdo it though, in the end it's about learning the technique and timing.
I follow you and epic already😛
I’m running Primo Rebars in 10” rise
dude can you make videos about old school parts. I have a vintage bmx bike. The stem has a bottom load and like has a neck on it and it sticks on the fork inside when you tighten it. Also it has a small frame, like 19" top tube and a small seat height
You should talk about upsweep and downsweep next
Back in the I bought a 4pc handlebars from a bike shop and they broke and it broke by the gooseneck so depending on how the 4pc is made and how you come down from a jump they can break.
notification Squad🔥🔥
Alf gang!
can i order from indoensia?how a bout covid 19 on shiping process?
✌🏾 Bro...
I am new at bmx, I saw that rider Sean Burns killing it and I like the 4 pcs bars look so I went to the shop and fell in love with the deadman bars 4 pcs in 9 I have 3 months riding and the bars already crack on the middle tube I am so disappointed because it was expensive and I saw this pro guy riding it in a crazy way I wouldn't so It should have hold my best trick is 180 and Im starting the 360, never had a major fall. now I will get a two pieces made in usa
did you overtighten the stem and crush them?
What’s the name of that lube you use on brake cables
Question: Got a 2021 Sunday Scout complete coming in the mail, whats the first aftermarket part I should buy?
Forks or cranks
If your grinding, the rear hub/wheel. Not only is it probably a single walled rim but the axle size is 3/8 or at least it was on my 2019 EX and I bent that shi right away. So definitely the rear wheel
The first thing that breaks/starts wearing down really fast. On my Sunday 2018 EX the left crank was all fucked and I had to get new cranks.
the handle bars i have a redline 2022 proline pro XL i love the bike 🚲 but how can i put nick higher because i don’t want to have m back so much front
Can you flip your stem upside down to raise or lower your bars
Can you run normal bmx bars on a race bmx
Need more PHU
If I have back issues and I use 8.6 bars with top load... it will be better to change it for a higher bar? Please help I love bmx but my back is kind of fuck
Does height have to do with anything because after 3 years of riding my 9” bars im way too hunched over and when i land hard impacts my whole body is forward to the point where im staring at the fit sticker at the front of my frame. I have big spacers. Top load stem 9inch bars and a 21” top tube frame. I just dont wanna bust the bank on bigger bars if it wont help
Move up to 9.5"
Great video. Start selling EPIC shirts !!!
I want too fix it up
Is Epics website down? Tried the site and it was dead......
Jeez alf u getting popular
Hey alf!
It's crazy how many riders have their own signature parts and even frames and still work at a bike shop to support themselves. Way more common than it should be
what brand are thoses bars
I want too see some bikes
I had to watch twice
I’m riding right now 😂
Phu is the man
I understand physics....... this guy is knowledgeable about 📐
My friend bikes always felt good than mine. Idk why.
I could Listen to him talk bikes for days.
Bicycle mathematics featuring professor phu.
What size bars you recommend on 29 throne goon? for 5'10 rider?
Keep it stock..your not doing bar spins or massive bunny hops on 29..
@@isaactorres5908 You’re crazy, there’s guys here in NYC riding 29s doing barspins, 360s, even fucking double pegs
