Any chance of doing any follow up videos on the GT? Review, thoughts etc? Would love to see more about the front brake and lever. Build quality after riding it awhile.
Yooo could you make a video on how to change the back tire I can’t seem to find anyone with this bike but you and there is no videos of this same bike changing the back tire plz 😊
Hi Myke, yes it comes with a front rim brake and there is mounting for it. It’s a pretty cheap looking piece and the quality of it does not match the rest of the bike. The brake lever does not match either, its a cheaper looking and feeling piece. I think they just threw it in the box in case someone wanted it for safety purposes, similar to the chain guard and reflectors.
Nice bike .... I like that it takes/comes with rear pegs and disc brake too. I agree with you about the tires, a 2.3” tire would be plenty. How much does it weigh?
Hi Siah - im not a huge fan of the tires. I ride a lot of pavement/asphalt around town so they are ok there. For concrete i can wheelie fine but stopping power is pretty poor with the slick design esp. since I only run the rear brake. Hope that helps. I will be getting a less bulbous tire with some tread once i find something i like.
From GTs website - Raise up and ride out on our lightweight big volume tire that was purpose designed to roll fast and hold your line when swerving down the street. I use them on the street on very beat up roads and they soak up a lot of the bumps. I dont ride them in the rain.
Hey Dustin, i see what you’re referring to around 2:15. It looks faded, but its just the lighting, the finish is quite nice and hasn’t faded since i keep it covered and out of the sun unless im riding it.
I bought one today, a truly awesome machine indeed!
Brake lever is on the wrong side.

Is the gt made by se bikes?
Wait, front brake? It comes with a front brake? They don't show a front brake in any of the photos, also there are no mounts on the fork, only a hole?

@@jimminycricket6618 thank you
just swap em out for 26 inch dirt bike tyres ..they are best .....
Hey do u know how long the chain is ?? Lol
What are the tires made for? what type of riding?

I bought one but i was wondering how long did it take to arrive for you
Only a few days from Source BMX
@@jimminycricket6618 thank you
Does it come with pegs?
John it comes with 2 black pegs. They are shown in the video around 1:17
@@jimminycricket6618 thank you
Can you lower the seat in the bike more than it shows in the video?
Yes, I don’t know where it bottoms out, but it will go lower.
Is this good to wheelie or the cult 26 inch
XFADORA I’m a bit rusty but I can ride wheelies/manual on this. I can’t speak for the cult. I’m partial to GT because of my RAD bmx days
@@jimminycricket6618 RAD is a CLASSIC!!!🤌🏽👌🏽
Are the hubs sealed?
Hi Rick, yes they are sealed
Can you measure the height from ground to top of top tube?
Hi Sean - To the top of the tube near the headset is 32.25” and the top near the seat post is 26.25”
Yours looks like the paint has faded terribly straight out of the box. There’s a difference in brightness where the foam was. That doesn’t look right.

um gotta question for ya.. how tall r u ? the 26'' looks a bit small for anyone 5'10'' or taller
W D 5’10” I haven’t ridden a 29” bmx though so I don’t have any data points to compare this to. 26” and 24” bmx work fine for me.
26 is not close to small for anybody, that’s why most people still ride normal 20inch bmx
orange？
Nice bike I just don't like those tires
I think I’ll eventually get some lp-5 heritage tires, but these are fine. Everyone who comments on the bike in person loves the fat tire look.
nobblys are best ...
