Install a RideOutSupply freewheel on a big BMX bike
I show you how to use a Park Tool FR-6 freewheel tool and a hack to make it easy to replace a stock freewheel with a loud, high-engagement freewheel.
Park Tool - FR6 for the 16T and 17T
Park Tool - FR8 for the 15T

Will the FR6 fit a stock se bike freewheel? Just bought a ROS for my big flyer and plan on using the FR6 for both. Thanks!
I like that, great job.
I just picked up a cheap 15 tooth. If I like the new gearing, I will pick up the ROS 15t. From what I can find, ROS is the only high engagement 15t freewheel.
Cant wait till i get another big flyer to put one of these on

Got the red ano 45 year anniversary which size sprocket and what size freewheel should I upgrade to wanna start on them wheelies
I got a big ripper also just starting my upgrades want to wheelie the bike ordered a 16T and 17T from ROS what size of chainring should I get 33T or 36T I’m ordering from knight. And what’s the difference in longer rides if I go with 17T/33T more peddling and more tired?
Just asking what is the best all around crank/freewheel setup for 29in bmx bike
Gotta get one SOON! That sounds sick! You're scratching your nuts lol... rubber mat 👍🏻👍🏻

Whats up Isaac. You inspired me to get back in the BMX from watching your videos. I'm from the Nor-Cal in San Jose. I just ordered a Big Flyer. I want to order that ROS freewheel. I want to keep the stock 36t sprocket for now. Should I go 17 freewheel ?

The 17 tooth will make your cruising speed slower but will make practicing wheelies much easier. I did the 17 tooth to get the feel and leg strength - then moved to a 16 after about six months or so.

Tell your local bike shop to contact Fifteen Distribution. They can get your shop all the bikelife brands - including RideOutSupply. RideOutSupply.com has them as well, but they sell out fast online. Check back often and watch the RideOutSupply Instagram.
I ordered two one for my brother and my self. He put his on already but what I wanted to know was do they all ghost pedal? My brothers flyer never did it before until after we installed the ros one. I’m a little hesitant to install mines because of that.

What is the benefit of swapping this out? I would think the freewheel on an SE would already be pretty good.

Modern bikes have cassette hubs or freewheel hubs. I don’t own the Devotion so no idea what it comes with. Heck the specs on the cult website and they’ll tell you.
Just picked up my first big ripper. I feel like the stock freewheel makes it tough to peddle the bike, would 16t make it easier to peddle?. Keep in mind I haven’t owned a bike in years lol. So maybe It’s just me idk lol.
