It's cool you guys are showing ppl how to upgrade their old stuff, especially if they are on a budget. My brother was gonna buy my nephew a new unsealed headset for his bike & I had to step in & make him get the mission headset. It rides better than ever.
⁰⁰⁰⁰
I got the Jet BMX knockoff from Amazon. Its great for my older eastern.
I love the way phu be sayin “ but look , it won’t wrk “
I used the mission kit on my 2000 Haro Revo, and it worked. I bought a few other kits first, but they used loose bearings. Phu is showing stuff I have had to figure out on my own, and He is Awesome for Sharing his Knowledge with the interweb. Thanks Phu! Your Hair and Your Sandals keep Me Coming Back For More... Videos,... Yeah, Videos...
Do you have a link for the kit?
I did this to my '99 ep a few years ago. Very simple to understand. I installed odyssey forks with an integrated race and it works awesome.
Thanks guys! I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge with us!
Thanks for this. Working on my single speed road bike and realized I might have to change headset types to get a lighter gravel fork on it. You showing everything made it clearer. Now I know at least what I'm looking at spec wise.
Always coming with best timed videos. I was just thinking about this. Keep it up phu, max, and Alfredo. Liked
💜💜🙏🏻
My midschool Freeagent stock forks actually came with an integrated race crown, I guess it was ahead of it's time lol. I did cop the Mission conversion headset a while back and it was one of the more, bang for your buck, upgrades.
I'm glad I found this video. Saved me a headache because I was thinking about converting to sealed bearings on my non integrated headset and frame.
Tx you explained it wonderfully. Only wish that you would have Installed it on a frame. Watching your assembly videos is so satisfying.
Thank for the knowledge you consistently provide us all.
🤛🏼💜
been riding for 25 years, and went to mtb recently what this guy is saying is straight true everyone. Very good sound advice!! Did you see the zs44 ec44/40 press in outer for bottom cup to take a tapered fork, and put it onto a non tapered frame. its really cool look it up :)
Im looking for this video for a long timeeeeee! Thank you for the information.
Thanks, just got this set, now I'm gonna go and convert the old school non integrated headset into this magic piece :)
They used to make a 1 1/8 headset for 1 inch frames.
The Tange MX 320 headset with precision bearings works perfectly with old school 1" threaded forks. I would only have a bike shop install it, because you need to press in the cups, it won't survive banging or a vice, needs a Park Tool headset press to install. Smooth as butter.
Thanks you guys are the best I always wanted to buy this kit but I didn't know what was included,so now I know an ill buy it
You all do good work. Thank you.
Excellent video thanks Alf & Phu 🏁🏁👍
Literally have learned everything I know about bikes and their parts cause of this dude. Always has the most tedious random information needed when you’re stuck on a build .
I converted the headset on my fit series one using the Verde Neo conversion kit to fit my odyssey forks and it works very well.
Trying to do same but have OG forks for my series one. Do they have the race or no? Thanks
Dude!! The explanation I’ve been searching for!
I made a vid about this topic. But Phu laying down more knowledge. I haven’t been able to work ona bmx in so long. This has really got me itchin to just tear my whole bike apart just to regrease it.
Great video! Was looking at that headset to convert my 2005 Haro F2! Haven’t rode in about 15 years and pulled out my old bike and started looking into upgrades. Lots of new brands out there now. I feel lost. lol
I feel your pain
I love this shop!
Finally. Thanks guys. Wanted to do this for a while. Got a mongoose I wanna convert.
What kind of Mongoose?
@@Patrick_Andrews917 the 720. Frame still holds up with the rest. The pedals and tires gave out quick tho. Went with odyssey stuff. Kinda tired of servicing the loose bearings tho so I wanted to convert to sealed.
idk why but i think i like the tech videos more than riding clips. i think it's cuz there's so much riding and less tech reviews.
i give thumbs up for the bearing grease you use in your hair
Txs that was real helpfull!
Thanks man
I remember i had to make my own headset for a dyno compe that was all loose ball bearings in a oversized 1 1/8 headset bearings and cups with a plastic compession ring from a conduit or something in my junkbox that made 1 inch threaded gt forks fit perfectly. Man i Wish they had these headsets,adapters,and converters like 15 years ago.
Good job!!
It’s cool that you did this video so people can convert their old parts to new parts. Cause once they stop making the parts the frame isn’t any good anymore.
I still run my Chris King headset on my mid school Hawk with Brand X forks and bars,Jad cranks with Crupi hubs and pedals . Now I ride a custom FBM before they closed shop. Can you do a video on a Trails style of bike and then park street ect...... the difference in the 2 and why. PHU you the man
Do a shop tour video showing what you've got in stock behind the counter on that wall and in the display cases. Also the completes in stock.
Great Video!! I got a challenge for you, What is the lightest modern freestyle complete bike can you make? You should do a build video with a parts list...
I think the mission sti headsets been out for a few years. But it's definitely perfect for wanting integrated headset. Used it on a few bikes
The consistency
Hwaaaw thanks for the info! Have a 26er with 1 1/8 headset non integrated and plans to make it integrated. Hope you discuss advantage or disadvantage of the 2 like price handling...
Shout out to my local bike shop Powers BMX that hooked me up with one of these.
The new bikes make it so easy, classic is like a puzzle
Hello Sir! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience. Are you familiar with any conversion kits or or conversion adapter / headset kits that would allow a Trek SLR stem and bar set to fit any road 28.6 headset?
Thanks in advance.
its like legos but bike forks haha
Love this channel!!! I'm 46, retired military and now building a 2020 Skyway T/A REPOP........Will this mission headset work??
Great information!! So is there a way to run threaded forks on a integrated frame??? Don’t judge me I’m just asking the question.
I been binge watching this your a smart dude dude you should do some wide hubbed bikes to like a Different chapter there ain't much out on them type of bikes jus saying tho
Yes!
Great video! I'm trying to convert my 93 Mach One with a new headset. Will this Mission Conversion headset fit into the Mach One head tube? Thanks!
My old fsa pig headset had sealed, they it worked great.
Those were bomb proof
Sealed bearings on my circa 2000 frame just like a mountain bike 1 1/8 set up but the head tube is straight. Only thing to watch out for is some of those mtb branded headsets can be too fat if you want to run a gyro. I think the angled race being built into the fork is a bad idea. Taking a race off and putting a new one on can be a pain sometimes but it's got to be better than replacing the whole fork. Both of your frames flair out at either end of the head tube. Aren't the both integrated but one takes loose bearings and one sealed?
Hey Fu do you have to cut all new forks down to size or can I shim witch is better?
I had it thinking too maybe 10 years ago.
Good video to watch on the toilet. 🎉
Is there a 32.5 press fit cups that fit in 1-1/8 fork? What have to look for in the headset? It doesnt matter if it is sealed bearing or not. Thanx.
Much respect to the whole channel! I just said everything you don't, no disrespect whatsoever
So my 2023 Sunday primer has sealed bearings on top and plastic caged bottom bearings. Am I able to just convert the bottom to sealed if I remove the race on the fork and in the steering tube? Or do I have to do a few other mods? I want to get different forks and might as well go full sealed when I do
I've been trying to look for a integrated freestyle headset with a hollow Bolt for the front brake set and I can only find it in Black, is there another company that makes them in different colors like white or yellow, with a white or yellow cap?
Is seat hight important? I usually ride with my seat pretty high compared to what I see online but recently I’ve been getting better at hopping higher and found myself getting hit in the nuts with my seat. Am I doing something wrong with my hop or should I just lower the seat
Id be mad curious to hear about parts or conversion kits that could fit on old road bikes, for example i know some people will use a euro bb to fit bmx cranks on an old road frame to build just a fun bike or for fixed gear especially, lots of fixed gear riders like bmx parts, no one has a channel talking about what can be used from bmx parts.
U will become great 👍 thanks phu u da best
Have a question on Inner tubes. Heavy duty vs Non. Heavy duty soo much thicker. Is the weight worth the protection? Pinch flat and thorns
"Integrated bearings" You might have a million dollar idea right there Phu.
Wow 🤩
@@AlfredoMancuso that's a weak ass reply😂😂
Shot for the video and explanation, so the Mission conversion kit is only for frames with 1 1/8" inch headset. I have a Mongoose Supergoose Black Classic Repop which according to the specs is 1". Is there a conversion kit available for 1"?
I used the 1” ACS main drive on my 99 gt.
can i ask some question?i have an old japan folding bike and i want to change its headset what can i do to change it or what other types of head set can i use?the one that i have now is a threaded type and the size is 22.2
Any conversation headset and bearing kits for older 1inch threaded frame for 1 1/8 threadless forks?
The mission conversion kit is awesome but you may want to have extra spacers and you have to upgrade the forks like he is saying.
Wanted to up grade my old school 93 Dyno. My og fork won't work with this set? It's the og 4130 fork and I'm I'm trying to retain as much old with the new tech.
Great job! Those epic tees for sale?
Yes you can semi sealed headset I’ve used them several times
I have a question, can a Star Nut headset be installed on a INTERNALLY THREADED forks? meaning the forks have threads but they’re inside the steering tube. its from a Haro 26”. I wanted to change the headset but ran into that issue. Please help? thank you
Do they not make sealed press cup bearings anymore? I've been running an FSA Pig DH Pro on my mid school bikes since I built my first bike in like 01.
Damn! I had that headset! 🔥
@@Fifty_bmx I checked right after I made the comment. They still make it. 16 year old me had to have it because that's what Nyquist used, and he was doing bars with, into, and/or out of everything before everyone else.
@@sepherus good times 🔥
Do have a video on placing the cups into the old frame
Can you get the conversion cups in chrome? so tired of black everything fashion :D
🙏🏼
How difficult is it to get the old stuff off and new installed. Special tools, or is there a good d.i.y. method for removal and install? Thanks 🤙
you can hammer out the old cups with a flathead screwdriver, as for installing the new cups i recomend getting a bolt styled press as hammering them in can damage them if you slip up.
Video about hydraulic brakes. I just rebled my brakes 3 times just to find out the rotor was making it squishy.
what frame is the chrome frame you are using as a demo ???
is this only exclusive to bmx frames? i wanna upgrade the fork on my road bike with 1 1/8 headset
You mentioned two types of crown race’s.
What’s the name of the crown race that’s for integrated bearings and ball bearings?
Phu sho!
Is that chrome frame a Patterson, and is it for sale 🤔
Can you convert an integrated to 1.5” tapered??
Can this mission kit headset fit on a mtb fork/frame?
I need one
what about tapered headtube?
Can u put an integrated conical headset on a regular integrated frame 2022 cult control
Where can I buy that kit?
What up 🤘
Tange make a 1 inch integrated headset kit for oldshool frames
is there a 1inch conversion headset?
Your next mission, should you choose to accept it: Put 1.5 (39.8mm) tapered steerer fork in 1 1/8 traditional frame! Thank you are Amazing!
Would this work on a 90's era mountain bike ??
Where do I buy this and does it come in white or blue?
So I went cheap by buying the chrome cromoly rant twin peak forks but my wheels won't fit my bigger wheel axle won't fit and my compression cap don't fit plz help?
Headset don't fit either.
where is the location of your bike store
Where is your shop???
Im not a rocket scientist but for some reason it seems like the integrated headset bearings don't fit in my Subrosa Sonos XL. The cups are machined in but if I put those bearings in I still have play after everything is tightened down. I made sure I used all the pieces but I'm still having problems. I've been away from BMX for a few years due to injury and a lot has changed so I'm kind of lost. Please help me out here
Anyone know what to use with a 52 chainrin?
Oh well
How much is a mission int headset!?
Yo are probably have to upgrade your fork also so this will work.
