You can salvage about 95% of that bike. I’ve restored some that were way more beat up. I can’t wait to see the finished product! Love the video Alfredo! Phu is really awesome!
Shouldn't use oxalic acid on aluminum. It can etch steel after a while it will eat away at the aluminum! Should use citric acid for aluminum. Awesome video. Loved seeing this. I had a 540 air also year older looked similar with no 990 mounts on straight shooter fork!
If you have a bench grinder throw a brass wire wheel on it not metal (brass is softer and more forgiving) and you can make things like that 1pc crank look brand new in 30seconds. It’s great for cleaning hardware chrome, nickel, alloy etc. Prob wouldn’t use on chrome frame forks bars because it will tear through through the finish pretty easy so go light feel it out. I use a dermal tool with brass wire brushes on the rough pitted areas then polish with something like Flitz or Quick Glo chrome cleaner to polish and treat the area to keep from rusting again. Hope this helps anyone. Love these videos man
I love this brother Pho he always puts a smile on my face he's funny while always keeping it real and he knows his stuff 👍🏾💙
Thanks phu.
Most People sand their bike with sandpaper and then give the bike another paintjob, but it's just so easy to fix!
Thank you so much phu!
Had the flair great bike. But when I was done with it was 48lbs. Thing was a beast
This videos are trippy I bought my socal flyer from that shop years back visiting some fam in SoCal
I also have one of these Haro Dave Mirra signature bikes from 99, i want to restore it someday, but i just dont have time for it.
I had the same dave mirra and completely restored it before i flat out traded it off. Ketchup works hard on the heavy rust and go over the wheels lightly with pepsi and tin toil. i use to soak bearings and small parts in gas overnight.soap wire pads and sandpaper is a last resort.
I think its great giving such an original bike a new life.
🙏🏼
Right on Alf “ that reflector “ 😂😂
Woo hooo, a follow up. I use windex for grip removal. I say 3peice it, cleaner my opinion I do both though depending on what I'm going for. Don't know about that chain man new chain bars can always spray paint chrome 🤯 yeah yeah. Basically new where needed an the rest run it its clean now. Bmx let's roll
I can't wait to see the transformation.
Vinegar, naval jelly, and the best for rust is electrolysis...
That is cool how that turn out. I use Evapo rust remover.
Thanks for blessing us with another epic video
Simple BRASS brush and water on rusty chrome works amazing.
I get keeping things original. But I don’t thing I could resist the urge to put fresh cranks on that thing.
Right if that bike belonged to a rider cranks and bars would have been upgraded.
Yep oxyclic acid , nailed itttttt!
Great stuff.
I still have one of those haro mirra's myself.
Maybe ill take it for a spin
2:38 some WD-40 and a small flat screwdriver that’s what I would’ve used to get the grips off 👍🚲💨
Aluminum does rust as seen in some of my videos of BMX survivors that I pick up. Never tried with bleach only use CLR mixed 50/50 with water & it's only $8.00 at your local Walgreens 👍
Wow so great brother👊❤...
I just picked up an old Royce Union trick bike and it's got some rust on the freewheelin the chain and light rust on the handlebars but I don't exactly know what year it is maybe you'll have a way to know
So after the soak would you sand the pits or put anything on it after to prevent it from rusting again? Asking for a friend...
GIBBS BRAND LUBRICANT is the go!
Citric Acid works great removing rust from chrome
That's totally good enough to reach Chrome it.
So I have a couple old school bikes that I need a couple parts for I wonder if this dude can help me find them or if I could ship the bikes to the shop to have them work on it for me I’m from Massachusetts and we don’t have many or any BMX shops out here anymore
What do you do if the frame has some chips in the paint?
I watch my local bmx shop build new completes , first thing he does is get rid of all the reflectors 😂😂😂
Man I want a starion again. Thanks a lot for reminding me. What show was that?
where do you dispose of the used lighter fluid?
Citric acid works good also
💯
Nice bro and THX
ALFREDO I HAVE QUESTION MY BMX CHAIN IS LARGER SO THUS IT LOOK LIKE SCROLL DOWN MAY BE SO WHAT CAN I DO OR TO PUT NEW CHAIN .
I'd throw some af the Haro lineage 3 piece cranks on there...
Can you use gasoline to clean ur bearing?
I noticed the red Haro looks so much like the Mongoose Ace, are they made by the same company?
The bike is perfect just the way it is
Soak a towel with the solution and wrap it around the bars so they can soak above the surface, even hand towels work, soak them and wrap whatever you want to be soaked,the towel will hold in place
Nothin like some of that good ol mid school grease that smells like garlic and burnt clutch
Aluminum Foil On Chrome
I would replace all the small bits and that crusty gyro , and I would have polished the crap out of all the aluminum pieces, also I would have done a sealed three piece crank profile or power bites …. Then you’d have my 540 air exact same bike just parts as I described lol 😂
that t-shirt is dope! Do you sell them?
I want to remove some rust from a frame but keep the og paint and decals. What is my best option?
Coca cola
@@AlfredoMancuso thanks man, ill try it out, wd40 and steel wool didnt really work. Getting back into bmx at 40, and rescuing my middle school gt interceptor! Love your channel, new subscriber here!
Dropping that Wok knowledge. Those are family heirlooms in Asian culture
Coca Cola then Never Dull!!!
still hv the bike
I believe there is a cookbook 101 to wok your dog.
I gave max some pretty cool hotwheels drift cars.

Seen the bike drifting
Get me cancelled 😂
Phu slackin on the hair and didn’t have the jokes ready…the correlation continues
😎🤘
My dudes!
Evaporust from Home Depot 5 gallons is $60-70 it no harmful to the skin and you can keep reusing it over and over. If I am wrong let me know. I also need some new rims so you will probably be hearing from me. I love your show, but this evaporust can’t be beat.
