“I’m not gonna talk about the pieces of bars” talks about pieces of bars 😂. Man of wisdom
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!
Love these types of videos. MORE please.
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 Days🔥🔥💯
Like clockwork, I was just thinking about when you'd put up a new video, then I get a notification. You da man Alf!
Loving these vids. 💪💪
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
I’m running S&M Hoder highbars with 53mm Profile push stem with spacers plenty of room and feels like butter
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 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
My forks have been cut down so im going to take this advice and get new ones and run the stem higher, cheers boys
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
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 love that soft music in the background
This is good stuff bro! Upgrading Super73 Z1 handlebars. Got the Redline Flight 3/7 Bar CrMo BMX handlebars🔥🔥🔥 /Bklyn👑
Love your videos!!
Great information!
We used to old school, raise the goose neck clamps in neck. to raise the bars higher then stock. Fun Good times
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.
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.
Never miss a Brochachi vlog
A day at epic never gets old
Loooove your videos man!
Wow! That’s some BMX Yoda type shit! I want to learn more from vids like this! Thanks! 🙏🏾
I’ll try that. Thank you
love the vid, very true , its all on preference , what ever floats the riders boat !
these guys are out in Huntington Beach I recommend stopping at this shop it’s amazing
Amazing content 🍻
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

I have 8.25 rise bars, topload stem and 1inch spacer. Its good for 5'6 tall alf?
This was a needed vid
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 really like the epic chill vlogs
Love them Phu’s
What does fu think about the tree bikes hub that was supposed to be laced 5 Cross stronger right?
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
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.
When is phu going to bless us with the ability to buy epic shirts!!
Noti squad 🔥
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
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
Shoutout to Phu for dropping knowledge for the young guns 😤
I just ordered 11" shadow vultus

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
I know what bars I'm getting next year. Definitely not gonna SLEEP on it.
can i order from indoensia?how a bout covid 19 on shiping process?
I like the frame
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🌵
BMX school day again yey
I’ve been feeling it in my back on longer rides, might get a top load if it will help
Please make video on hard chrome plated parts vs normal spray paint
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
What’s the name of that lube you use on brake cables
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

Heavens gate? Mimicking? Sleeper? You guys are awesome, thanks
Can you flip your stem upside down to raise or lower your bars
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.
@muifly4892

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.
Can someone pls help me I'm not sure what size bars I should get. I'm 15 and bent my 8" rise bars should I get 9 rise? "Im a park/street rider"
I wish this bike shop was near me

did you overtighten the stem and crush them?
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

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

My friend bikes always felt good than mine. Idk why.
S&M Slam Bars 8" rise if you're short or S&M Hoder Bars 9" rise if you're taller. Both with 1" minimum cut off... that's all you need to know about bars.
