Only Phu can keep me focused on seat post clamps for 15 minutes
Hahaha he really has a knack
Facts, some people are born teachers. He has a higher calling. Great guy. Fan for life.
@@AlfredoMancuso legit he just talks in circles but its kinda entertaining cuz he drags so long that it makes me annoyed waiting to find out what he’s actually going to say
@@eddielalowski4425 😂😂😂
That’s so fax
Phu was a professor in his past life the way he explains things and helps the listener follow and understand and emphasizes things make learning so easy it takes a certain kind of person to be able to do that he’s educated me more than any teacher I’ve ever had
Without a doubt haha
We must protect Phu at all costs.
Big facts
i could listen to phu tell me about these parts and all the little facts he knows all day
Lmao Phu prolly could have went another 30min 😂 good info tho - i love tech thursdays
Love that S&M Josh striker frame!! Must be army green, 20.5, Euro bottom bracket, non integrated head set!! Mid 2000's
Wish s&m still did wishbone design
This was one of my favorite videos. Specifically the last 2min lol phu likes to have a little bit of jewelry and his exit jump lmao max at the end
I love tech Thursdays🔥🔥
I love these videos with phu's info
Glad we got a cameo from Denim! Also i love how funny these videos get, i died when Phu put the clamps on as rings😂😂 also he made perfect sense yall must not be paying attention
I thank you for all these vids.
Thanks for your videos like this. I'm just getting back in to into it and a lot has changed since the 80's!
You’re welcome!
Love you alf and the whole phu family!
I feel the love bro! Thats passion! Great video!
bling bling wit da ring.... I dig it . Also I don't think taking care of your customers products is cheap, it's the mark of someone who sells fun with integrity... maybe it's wastefulness, that is the world's foe right now, or even through time Big up happy holidays and stuff to all of you, keep your head up, Im proud of you guys. Hard workers
Great info cool vid
best day of the week hands down. its nice to watch this while i work on my cut-sette
Cutsett gang!

Seat post clamp Phu bling! so good.
Good info bro.
Hell yes phu!!! 🔥🔥🔥. Denim and begin my dudes and stoked to see denim on your channel today ✊
“Road bike guys like their lattes.” 🤣😂🤣
True and funny
I wish this guy was my friend. Seems like a mellow easy going dude. Thanks for the amazing info!
Get into a bind and this thing is a life saver
I got you Phu. Makes sense to me.
💯
bro your the best keep safe
EPIC!!
I don't know why he's calling you cheap, but it is funny, but more importantly super great video. This is the first time that I have came across your videos, I've been BMXing for 44 years, and I've seen a lot. I ride street, on a 22 inch, and I love it! I ride a 20 inch too, I look forward to watching more of your videos. Wes Sept
5:06 That why i like built in seat clamps so you dont have to worrie 👍🔥🚲💨
Bro your im favorite CZcamsr keep safe bro❤❤💯💯
Epic!!!!!!!!
Days when there’s no upload i find myself watching videos I’ve missed....
It’s funny you said that pho I was going to say the same thing to wear the welds brake on the seat post clamp.😊
Those Vans tires look dope.
Phu is great.
Just put in an order for a 2019 GT Pro Performer 26'' which comes with a 22 top tube. The stock post is a laid back Dayglo Pink. Would like to change it out to a modern pivotal setup or a standard road bike aluminum alloy rig with rail clips. Aftermarket laidback 22 posts are hard to come by where I am from (Thailand)
whats best pro level bike jack or what ever you guys use to work on bikes, ?
i am building on kitchen table and my ma is mad
Come on Alfredo,the man is passionate n dedicated to bmx.
Let em splain it ese
Phu busted out that classic Dyno Grail Frame
phu is the man, nqa
Knowledge!
Are we not gonna talk about how cool it would be to have two pros in your bike shop like all the time plus a son who is getting really good like wow
Hey Alf, Can you make a video explaining What type of axles "profile racing" manufacturer?
Epic
LOL Phu, u so funnnyyyyyyyy , Very Big Boi here . lol
Haha
Woooooow no notification! Luckily I remembered it was Thursday 👌
CZcams hates me :(
IG poppin tho 👏
Phu is a modern day mr. Miyagi!!
Do y’all do delivery?
Best setup ever:
Pr1mo Viking clamp, Pr1mo Pentagon Seat, and S&M Marvin Guts.
I want to put a quick release on my Sunday soundwave cuz that shits kinda tight
What about a built in clamp frame but change out the bolt with a quick release for 25.4 box bike ?
Do you have a similar informative video on the head-post ? The old vs the new bicycles ?
Hey Alf! Quick question: I had a great idea for a seat that has a pocket in the back or underneath that you can stash your tools or keys in and whatnot, do you or Phu know if anyone is already making that?
Thanks!
Wethepeople done it a couple years back
WeThePeople Smuggler seat.
I want a more in depth explanation of seat posts! HAHHAHA
I had a fit trl that i never moved the seatpost on and bout a year later after rideing dirt and useing it as a daily rider i needed to move the seat the allen head sheared off coz of that i carry a spare seat clamp in my bag lol
Where is you're shop located?
Last week we discussed E.D. this week but plugs lol
ANY ONE KNOW HOW BIG THE SEAT CLAMP IS ON THE STEEL PANTHER s&m AND SEAT POST i am ready to build and just realized i need clamp and seat and post to save my man hood. thanks guys great show
s..
Sunday still have seat clamps right?
I've never been to Epic but I imagine it smells like food with onions.
Probably smells like new tyres and bike lube!
It smells like Popeyes chicken and tire rubber
@@jrb.bmx1513 with a dash of 4130 chromoly.
I'm not lost. But I was also a bike mechanic for years and I was fixing my own flats when i was 8 years old. My Grandpa taught me how to use a patch kit and somehow I remembered and started doing it my self. Though being a 8 year old it was really hard for me to tighten the back tire on the chain side and the axle would always slip and the tire would rub. By the time I was 10 years old I was strong enough to tighten it down.
Back in the 70s i had to save for weeks to buy a shim for my frame so i could fit a lay back seat post to my Raleigh Burner for bar spins.
I had the same problem i made a shim from cans then bout amonth later i found a stinger styler layback post on an old bike it was a layback post but a burner size .
I got a Bmx racing frame that has the hole for the seat post broken I can’t get a clamp on it how can I fix it
i need some pedals what kind should i get
Shadow Platform pedals
😂 phu , if viewers still don’t understand , tell them to bring the bike to u ! Phu u are funny 😆
Exactly Alfredo, he went way to in depth with seat posts. Lol. Just this fits with this, this fits with that, done. Also I’m surprised he didn’t mention the imperial measurements. 22.2mm =7/8”, 25.4mm =1”, 26.8mm =1-1/8”.
Can you get phu to talk about gearing?
Before I order any part I use my digital caliper to measure inside and outside diameters
And dont forget to use lots of grease inside of the seat tube of the frame before inserting the seatpost itself.
wassup alfredo sorry im late today hehe
Just got a cult bike from pho on Sunday
Remember when kids would duck tape them their seats to the frame That always cracked me up
Does anyone remember a bike called the bagley 4 star? One of my first bikes been looking for one
Also my first bike. mosh bagley 4 star.
On today’s episode of Phu’s Gone Wild...
Phu lang malakas
I had to stop in the middle to go check my seat post collection just because
Back in the day we use to run Our seat clamps low so the seat tube wouldn't crack .
Or stack them up have an mx folding one at the bottom and a tange one at the top .
Start making these more like infomercials give more prices give your shop number And websitemore access to the products that you guys are showing us The host does nice job Both you guys work well together weekly deals access to items that you are showing us..as always nice vid
He doesn’t listen to me about the web store
@@AlfredoMancuso Well you guys have good chemistry in front of the camera you ask intelligent questions and you do solid editing plus your an awesome rider I like it when you guys show the products That you sell in the shop Prices would be nice
Denim dat dude in the bmx scene. he owns the shit. Glad to see n hear him
But Phu,, You can use a seat clamp as a spoke wrench too 🥸🥳
Hmmmm
I'm fat, and don't wanna overtighten and break my built on clamp... could I add a 25.4mm clamp onto the post to help keep it from sliding down as a ride and sit on the seat...?
Riding the bike helps with the being fat part.... can't wait for spring....
I always tell my dude that the clamp is bigger than the post but he never gets it. But I like the regular seat clamps better, I feel like they work better than integrated.
Foo keepin it G...ain’t putting no seat post or clamp on the fresh frame...That’ll make it used bruh 😂😂
On those quick release, really hurt when you hit your knee on them,or go to grab your seat post mid air and that clamp f@#ks you up
Hey guys, Im looking for a GT SHOW frame / or complete bike, or SHOW specific parts. Serious buyer, will pay good. respond to me if you can source me mainly just a SHOW frame to build on or handlebars right now I need meanwhile building on a GT Performer frame. Also could buy a Dyno Pacman forks
but when that welded seat clamp broke off and you put another seatclamp, it would not fit because the seat tube where the new seat clamp that will be put is too short just like here 12:40
Anyone know about a crunching sound coming from the cranks is what is sounds like. Any idea??
Your bottom bracket could be blown!
Worst case scenario. Best case just needs a thorough cleaning and some new grease
@@AlfredoMancuso been doing that the day I bought it. I just brought it in 2 epic for a new spindle and hatwasher because they were striped but keeps doing it. Any other suggestions? Thank you
didn't even talk about wedge posts i'm disappointed
My seat post with quick release keeps turning. To much lube or. I have it so tight. Still turns
Ayo wsp
I need a seat bolt
Hi, what purpose the little hole in some frame in rear fork?
Let me get that plug.
Orale 😎
I want to put a quick release on an integrated clamp. Haven't figured it out yet
The majority of mtb riders out there (at least those being serious) do have dropper post and thus don't need a QR seat clamp.
Plzzzz tell Phu in the next video that he is the Joe Rogan of BMX bikes
I just purchased a SANDM holy diver and my brakes rubbed against each other will never buy another SandM
a crazy fact you didnt know about bmx frames...... they used to have the same seat tube diameter as your bars, we went up cause seat posts werent strong enough..... #BarsShouldGoOversized
they used to need press in cups for the headset and bb. they used to have these weird lugs on them for these hand devices called brakes. they used to have this one with a giant built in bash guard.
I want bmx plsss
I’m not lost
