  • This is not the only way to put a 1 piece crank on but I thought it could help someone out that’s new or getting back into the hobby

    put the bottom bracket bearings on the correct way with all the washers etc. it will help u in the long run...not using all bearing parts in the set up is wrong. they made them parts for a reason not to throw out...alot of good correct videos are on u tube at Park Tools they can teach u alot of the correct ways to do it right...i luv ur videos...i learned from yrs of working on bmx bikes..in 15 yrs prob fixed n retored of 250 bikes..remember always correct knowledge is Power..u have very nice vintage bmx Money bikes...what u dont want to do is turn ur big money bikes from gold into shit fast by doing stuff incorrectly....keep up the great videos...also i buy a $10 tub of lucas oil racing red n tacky grease works so good..pack them bearing good...also my friend bart had a bike shop n u tube channel the Bike Man for U..has some real goid videos on repairing bikes..

      I’ve seen it on the inside and outside, actually it would look better in the inside.

      I just looked and almost all my bikes have the washer on the inside. Thank you for pointing that out.

    My crank seems too tight to spin the crank any lesser tho and I get play in the bearings. Its a long story.

      Even if you loosen it up just a little? Or maybe your bearings need changing. Are you missing any parts?

      I think I may have warped race cups putting them in the shell

      Man hopefully I’ll buy a stand one day, I’m laser focused on these parts AND I find my self getting more frame sets.

      @@celicharvel that’s how I normally do it but I was just using that crank set up just for the video. I’m still needing parts for that 84’ power lite.

      I never use the bikes down before but sometimes it looks like those guys are fighting it with that stand when it's vibrating all over the place if it looks like they're in a 7.5 earthquake
