How To: Make Your BMX Hub Louder!

Due to the rain the ending had to be rushed, today I've decided to go outside and film a quick video on how to make your bike louder! Go check out my BMX GiveAway in my last video or go Follow Me on Instagram to see more!

Note, grease doesn't build up with time. The grease is what protects your bearings from wear. The removal of the grease will just make a hub a time bomb waiting for it to explode. Seeing that is an Odyssey rim and hub doing that is going to end up costing you some money. If it hasn't yet, it will. NEVER use WD-40 on a bike! It's a degreaser and not a lubricant. Use something like TriFlow or chain lube. Warning ⚠️ following the ideas in this video will definitely mess up your hub and can lead to injury. Think: 3' tall ledge or more and you drop off it after doing this. Most people don't have a clue without doing this if the internals are good let alone setting them up for a ton of wear fast. And your hub blows sending you flying. Broken teeth maybe or more. Just saying hopefully even 1 person reads this and won't do it

You may want to read the can and google what it is for. Ask your local bike shop. If you don't know that most of them have a running joke about WD40 and bikes. That's why they launched a full WD40 line for bikes.

M Davis google is not always right wd-40 is a lubricant. Oil is a thicker lubricant. Grease is one of the thickest lubricants. Degreaser removes oil and grease from a surface, if you use Wd-40 on a hinge it will lubricate it. If you use exports degreaser or any degreaser on a hinge it will start to rub and make sounds and eventually seize.

20,000 subs with 1 video challenge It's a solvent not a grease. Your talking about a door hinge. It coats it like oil, however it is not something you want to put on a bike. No google is not always right, but everyone seems to use it so I said to google it. I have been riding a long time and know if you put stuff like WD40, 3 in 1 oil, vasaline in a bike hub it breaks down. WD40 like oil won't mix with oil. And at temperatures that hubs internals can reach (depending on what and how you ride) it thins out. Grease gets thinner also but not to the degree of the 3 I mentioned. That's why WD40 launched a bike line. They knew people would use their products seeing they had been already. Yet bike shops wouldn't touch a bike with it. It isn't safe in original form for that application. Most good shops have don't have original WD40 in their shop. Of the 3 near me none have a single can, but all 3 have the new line for bikes.

20,000 subs with 1 video challenge Or read this: WD stands for "water displacing" and its main use is as a solvent or rust dissolver. The lubricant-like properties of WD-40 come not from the substance itself, but from dissolving components. And the effect doesn't last. WD-40 can be a good substance to start with - it can help clean up rust or other grime. Taken from the WD40 site/explication of how it works
You know what? Running a car engine without motor oil makes the engine louder, too. Question is for how long.

I'm a bike mechanic at a bike shop and cleaning out the grease in the hub isn't going to break it. some companies like Profile even recommend keeping your hub driver as dry and clean as possible. However in doing so it doesn't make your hub louder or any less quiet. Also do not recommend over tightening lock rings or cones (driver bolt) and it just puts more stress on the bearings. For sealed hubs the bearings themselves have grease in the seals and that's what will lubricate your hub the grease you see that builds up in your hub is excess and grime and dust that builds up in your hub after use. Be sure to check out my KZread channel for videos and Subscribe I will be getting into videos like this in the near future

Grease doesn't build up over time 😂
I have more grease in my sprocket than there is at a 'Grease the musical'. I like a quiet ticking but have an old Haro with the flip/flop wheel(which amazes a lot of people still) ,It has a nice loud sound. It's the sound of precision engineering and it is a satisfying sound to the ear. Precision engineering.
It's easier just to use clothespins to hold playing cards in your spokes.

MJM Productions the reason they want quiet hubs isnt for the noise its because hubs with more engagement points are usually louder and cause more drag, and road bikers want the least drag possible, if you ever see a hub like a profile elite it doesnt spin for very long because it has a lot of drag. If the hubs that were loud had little drag im sure road bikers would choose them but they want all the speed they can get

If you really want it to sound loud, you can try sawing the front fork until only a small piece of metal holds the wheel. Then you just have to do a 360 on the quarterpipe, and trust me, the noise will get everyone's attention!

Bro. Your channel is awesome. My hub locked up after 8 years. The bike shop told me it’s better to replace the whole wheel. I saw your other video where you said bike shops will say that so the customer will buy a new wheel. I went ahead and ordered a new wheel. My current wheel I will probably buy a KHE hub and have a bike shop swap them out. Thank you for your commentary.

Cleaning out the old grease is a good idea because is can get gunked up and contaminated but you should always put fresh grease back in, never run anything dry
Lol bro you sounded so pissed when you made this haha but hella good tips bro like the other vids to

nice song bro, earl
Another new trend is to tighten half of the spokes and and loosen the other half to make it louder, you cal also mount a chainsaw to the stem for extra loudness
this broke my driver now i need to get a new one thanks g
I did this and my entire axle snapped gg good info Ps.. it was an 80 dollar hub
Thanks for the help!
I was gonna do it on my old dk frames old rim because my odyssey hub is wrecked. but im using the old original dk rim now because I cant buy a new one. is this a bad idea sense it could break?
Instructions unclear, scooter got stuck in whales bowels.
This is how you make your back wheel stop spinning!
you can just sellotape a card to the frame so it hits the spokes when the wheel goes round or what i use to do when younger was put a drink can in the back wheel so it sounded like a motorbike.
Fashion Never Function !!! Yah let's review recommend to dry out the one part of the bike that helps you move!!!!!! Hey Needle, Where's your video on how to start smoking cigarettes or how about the one on poking tiny holes in your inner tube ?!??!?
I like that earl beat
I remember back in my day it was the quieter the better. Now its the louder the better.
To turn the spring in the hub is a good idea but please leave the grease there if so it wil brobay work fine
Yt wants to annoy me in some way. When i first build my bike, i fell in love of my noiseless hub (entry level, 8-9 speed, center lock disc brake shimano hub). Just got intrigued at first, but later i end up liking it a lot. Noiseless bike is a goal rn, kinda impossible with the sound of the tires, but aside from that, is quite silent. PD: i hate loud hubs
what tires do you have
that extra drag tho? that like riding with a brake pad rubbing slightly
All the old grandmas be complaining about the noise so ima do this and see their reaction
Hey I want to start filming motocross ,skateboarding ,snowboarding,wakeboarding ,surfing ,bmx,vlog,day in the life's videos and I would love to know what are some tips I can do to start I have and I phone 5 and a GoPro hero 3+ black edition with a selfie stick that goes to 20" and I have a Apple Mac pc but I don't know what software to use or how to make good videos or don't know if I should use I phone or GoPro or what I need ?
Put 3 in 1 oil in the bearings to keep them good and not explosive
would it not be better to do this on a new bike after riding it for a day or two?
Do bearings have to be in with it mine has bearings i took them out because it collopsed.
Utake of that thing take the grease off and the grease of in the inside you put it back in then you tightened the bearings and its all good?

Is this a good thing or bad thing to do
hi im hunter, im 14 years old, 5'7, 140 pounds. I don't have a bmx bike but i have been looking into it ever since i rode my friends bike. I found myself to be really good and wanting to get my own bike so I've been watching video after video. I still don't know what brand or type of bike to get. I want a bmx bike for mostly cruising around and light tricks like small jumps and flatland tricks. Im very confused to where to get all this from though. Like "where do i buy these parts" "do i buy the parts all together" "do i buy everything as one" "do i get the parts of my bike from a store or a website" thanks again for this video it helped a lot just to sure where or how to buy a new box bike, thank you :)

never use wd40 on your hub unless you don't care about your bike. Wd40 is a degreaser use on your chain to clean it then put fresh clean oil back in the chain.
thanx i luv my bmx
this does work,i tested it,but its pretty risky to do so i kept mine the way it was out of the factory....
When i try to take the locknut thing off, the axle spins and i can't undo it?

1. I don't recommend WD40 on bike I used it it stripped my chain and bearings and 2. the first time I pulled a hub apart I found I had no working bearings (they looked like they exploded) which caused the wheel to lock up at inconvenient times also Repco LP1 is a great lubricant for bmx bearings it eats rust and replaces grease and has better performance
Frfr you are only cleaning off the paws and contact points not the bearings the paws and contact points make the sound and don't forget to cleen off the spring and spring bed to allow better echo
Just a recommendation you can just spray some degreaser spray ik this video is old but just saying
What wheels r those or rim
it works on freecoaster?:))
