Mr. Aparijo is still so smooth... reminding me how much he's influenced my BMX passion since 1983, Jamaica.
Love it, those guys having the fun of their life. NO money can buy that having fun with your mates doing your skilles and learn from eachother and having a good time. Love those blue colours on those bikes!!!
Bmx, skating, and rc just go together 💨💨🙌🙌
Love the upgrades done to this pro performer. It's probably the easiest way to get a GT and have the look and feel of those bikes we had back in the 80s.
This is one of the better videos I've seen of HB Tuesday in a while. Even if Eddie didnt show, good job! I'm still waiting for him to accept my cup of coffee!
That's color scheme is totally awesome!
Awesome footage of the guys freestyling on their bike's 👀 👊👍
Omg!!! This couldn’t be more perfect! I would be there every Tuesday.
That's so cool guys. When I quit riding and started chasing tail the main tricks I could do that were some what modern was several variants of the fire hydrant and a "falayel" Not sure how to spell that lol. I'm 53 now and wish I could find a old school Haro Master to play around in the driveway. I live in South Alabama so not to many meet ups around my area that I know of.
I have a rare but newer Master on my website for sale
Could watch them all day 😳👌 thanks for the great content.
would love to see eddie ride that yellow one in a full retro suit. so rad.
That's my dream vacation to go there and to have a cool bike to ride and chill with you guys.
Sweet GT build 100% RAD!!!
This is so awesome! It was so much fun hanging around with my biking buddies in the parking lot back in the 80's in SoCa and this video brings me back to those days. I was never as good as some of my friends but it was always a blast. Its cool seeing Martin still riding. I'm a few years younger than him but I don't think I can pull off any of the tricks today that I used to do.
You'd be surprised. I say it was 100% sincerity. At 48, I'm actually a much better rider than I ever was in my teens. Now I don't heal nowhere near as fast, but that's another story.
Good stuff like always buddy, b.m.x./ freestyle for life !! 🤸♀️🚴♂️🤸♂️🚴♂️✊🏻👌🏻👍🏻💪🏻
Love the Tuff Wheels.
Really nice!!! Looks much better w old school stuff!!
Martins looking pretty good! Riding better now than he was when him and Eddie Fiola would do the throwback sessions… but I mean we are talking about 30+ years of riding and I’d like to see him pull off some repetitive pinky squeaks! Maybe a nice long hand five and four or five whiplashes!!! Either way, I idolized him in the late 80’s.
Awesome bro
Having fun guys
The new wheels made the biggest difference. Looking good!
One of these days! Hope to check that out for myself in person! Thanks for sharing!
🤙
That was awesome 👌 👏
Wow I love it 🥰 I wanna do this
Hey man, it's cool you have a channel for BMX. I used to ride back in the day, and started again just riding and getting the kids involved too. Then I was on ebay buying and selling for a few years while having more kiddos...and was doing killer, building up many bikes, buying frames (old school)*Cool bikes too*... Then life got messy, realized I was living a life of pure Lies and Liar's surrounding me, trying to destroy everything I built! Realized my own damn family was involved with the occult and were involved with the crooked justice system and government to try an sacrifice me, like they did my mother, my grandmother, my cousin's, and many other too... So anyway there's a lot I must do in this life... most importantly to teach others to LIVE IN THE NOW, find balance...help others know "We are all one" living as many...so we might as well do it beautifully!!!.. Lift others up, teach them We are Nature...Get back into Nature, hiking, biking, walking, swimming, learning with others on the fly...like we used to do, us kids who grew up in the 80's...we were hands on and just did it... Technology is killing our kids and the human race off!!!.. WAKE UP and help wake others up to the unjust system! Stand up to corrupt politicians, cops, lawyer's and judges too... they're all part of the brothhood!.. People need to stand together and remember "they are only as good as their weekest link"= each other!!!.. The Laws of Nature will always stand true...Nature has No boss! We must care for and take care of what gives us life!!!.. Getting back to living more off the beauty of Living off the land literally. Always giving more than you take...People are way to materialistic and are hoarders too! Let's get back to living simple with actual communities, real people who don't just look the other way...Anyway, life was more wholesome when kids were riding bikes everywhere you looked... If we do not make an immediate change away from certain technologies...We will eliminate the whole human race! ***NO RELIGION HIGHER than TRUTH!!!..*** I AM here to Awaken the masses into Truth and Balance! ((Not the lies they have pushed upon everyone!)) The real Rainbow means Balance & Joy - n - Peace living in Harmony with all others and within Nature!!!.. LOVE KNOWS NOT HATE...TRUTH KNOWS NOT LIES... STRENGTH KNOWS NOT WEAKNESS... {( All is ONE..as many experience's)}
Next build??? Harry Leary smoked chrome DB, with absolutely all chrome parts! ***Bling bling***😂
Yesterday evening, I swapped out my chain wheel for a Utility Pro. I got to the specific shop that had them in stock about 8 minutes before it closed. Next comes another chain because this constant creeking noise is not what anyone wants to hear while pedaling at any speed.
CREE😱EEK!
Oldschool is so cool i Love it😆Frame stand to bar spin. ...this Trick. Is very cool ....this is my next trick😆very cool.......a Big Hand for all the bmx Drivers......from Germany 😉
Incredible riden , makes me miss my teenage years so bad ....
Always...not what you do..the way you doit!
I went with a 300 mm Odyssey seat post. Those pivotal posts don't allow you to cock your seat back to that perfect angle though. You're definitely correct about that weird angle your seat is on, plus that stock chain wheel doesn't scream GT like the one you're going to swap it out for.
Love how the bike looks 👍Can you show updates on the 13t rear cassette driver fot the tuffs when you do get it. I heard a certain odyssey 13t cassette driver for the 9t skyway tuffs works . I had haro lineage 48 spoked chrome wheels with a 13t cassette driver and the same 36t gt sprocket as you but the white version on my 2021 gt pro performer heritage.
Have you added the 13T cog to the cassette hub yet? I would like to see a video tutorial on that. There's not much info out there. I have a 2022 Pro Performer Heritage 20" with skyways that I would like to change the gearing on. Great video! Love the yellow performer!
I sold that bike about 8 months ago
@@RadBMXBuilds I sort of figured! I just saw your recent inventory video and didn't see it. The new bike based on the GT1972 frame looks great BTW.
99% better than stock. 990 brakes would make it for me. And replace the brake levers as well. Thanks for another great video!
good job with the Performer what are you going to do with the old parts? (going to sell them? if so how much? )
1:38 Why you didn't use the half chrome chain? It seems it's a shadow conspiracy chain, much better than the one you put on?
I’m going for looks not what’s a “better chain”
As a 10 y.o. I never knew why the GT was designed the way it was. I just thought they were cool a.f. later on I knew why the gyro was the gyro and why the bottom tube was designed the way it was but I was today years old when I learned why the back of frame was designed the way it is seeing these perform.
👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for this excellent video. I just bought the 2023 GT Pro Performer which comes in black color, I changed the wheels for the Skyway Tuff Wheels 9t, and also changed the sprocket for the same one you installed on this bike (GT Power Disc 36t), I have seen some websites that do not recommend the gearing 36t 9t, did you leave this gearing on your bike? or did you change the rear cog to the 13t?, if you think the 13t is better, where can I find this part and how difficult is to change it on the Tuff Wheels?. Thanks
I sold it with the 9t but personally would’ve changed it to the 13t if I kept it
@@RadBMXBuilds Thank you very much for you reply. Yes, I found it's very hard to pedalling with the 9t. Can you give me some advice how to change it to 13t? Thanks again for your help
How’s it going. I’m hoping I could get some help. I’m trying to remove the crank of my bike to install the same sprocket you have on this built. But for some reason it’s not budging. Can you give any pointers how you removed yours? Thank you.
Get a crank puller from park tool
What did you end up doing with the layback seat post?
If that fits the 2021 BK globetrotter signature I’ll buy it off you…would be cool to have one part that was in your garage on my bike. That, and I believe having the Layback on, there will actually help me doing certain Flatland tricks
Still have it
Did that dude really need to honk the horn? Sheesh.
Hahaha I added that as a sound effect 🤣
@@RadBMXBuilds lol. That was funny. Bike came great with the tuffs!
Real nice looking! How was that 36/9 gearing? I imagine pretty tough.?
It’s a pretty tall gear/hard to pedal but not terrible
What bike is Julian on ?
Where is Kevin Jones?
I don’t know
Can i do this with any modern bmx? I dont like the looks of modern bmx , i love the old school 80s bikes but there too expensive to buy.. do i have to have a certain frame etc to fit retro parts on to get a retro feel and look? Any help will be awesome..im wanting to get into it with my kids , introduce them to bmxing..thanks
Yes you can!
@@RadBMXBuilds well thats just rad news 🤙
Nice upgrades on the heritage!
No pegs though?
Nope. I took them off.
Was thinking on getting the new 86 gt performer well reissue I guess.think I'm too tall I'm 6'2.would do yall think?? Wanted one since they came out back then but my parents could not afford it,got stuck with sears bikes (they were cheap) now I can afford one. RAD on!
Considering the same. Always wanted a pro performer or redline rl 20II back in mid 80s but am also 6+’. And I dont really want a 24,26” etc.
Thinking I want a real 80s and can afford $1000+ but I know how silly i am to be dreaming of a 20” at 48. Too many swap outs here which makes things expensive in a different way.
Also looking for clues of new frames having longer top tubes than 80s/90s but still leaning retro. I commute on a 27” road bike so I know its a weekend/collectors toy. Cheaper than a car!
@andy barrett I've got it ordered finally got my dream bike
I've been stuck between the rebooted GT Pro Performer and Haro Lineage Freestyler..... and the GT is definitely a much better value. But every time dude rolls by on the Haro I'm just like.... "I'll find the money". Even if I'm just having a delayed adolescence doing decades and tailwhips in a parking lot....
Go for the dream bike
@@RadBMXBuilds I hate how right you are.
Yeah man what is up with that seat angle on these newer BMX bikes.
It’s terrible
@@RadBMXBuilds It's kinda up in your junk there ain't it not a very cool fad 🤣
Does Martin not sign bikes?
Not often
69th comment!!💪🏿💪🏿🔥🔥🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸
😂
In my opinion, all this new school is ugly! Old School 4Ever 💯... If you really wanna have some good stuff...JMC/ Kuwahara/ National Pro/ Patterson/ Race Inc./ STR-1 & PK Ripper/ ...+ DG/ Cook Bro's/ Redline/ DB/ JGS/ & many others too!!!.. The early GT's were sweet and fast, then all the trick bikes started drowning the market and helped almost kill off BMX Racing all together!(???) It's a sad thing, cause BMX riders were a big deal, and they were living their dreams out... Branding/ Licensing/ Deals with magazines, footwear, apparel, etc. The mid to late 70's, 80's, and into early 90's were AWESOME 💯... 💪🚴🔥 *** I absolutely think we need to bring back old school and make it huge!.. Not just on ebay for collector's...the riders, the bikes, the atmosphere, the tracks, just good ol racing with a love and passion for racing and riding with competitor's and friends alike. Get the youth back into BMX riding again!!!.. ∆***OLD SCHOOL BMX RACING***
nobody wants to hear this, but Martin is absolutely a better flatlander than Eddie.. honestly, always was
But EF kills it on the ramp/park
