Ya not going to lie the reverse thread on the bottom bracket got me when I was young. Now I just remember put it "back" on ....so backward to instal. Off to get my traditional string cheese after watching your videos lol!!!
Hahaha love my string cheese😁. Jeremiah has done this so many times you would think he would remember by now. Well there is the whole hit in the head a lot thing to consider as well I guess 😂. Thanks man.👍
Love waking up to a new Wolftick video! I stripped the hell out of my crank arm on my taff trying to remove it. Had to use a pulley puller to get it off. Glad you had better luck!
I put the Ganopper on my GT about a year ago! No problems with it, I like the 1x8 range. The IXF has a better appearance without the big logo but that is a minor cosmetic issue
Thats good to know man, figured its just like the IXF but painted lol. Hope it holds up for me as well on the Taff! Thanks for watching brother and see yo FRIDAY for a whole new CRANKSET!!!
Man that bike looks super awesome. The oil slick is very fancy. I just put a oil slick chain on my Diamondback Sync'r hardtail last week. Looks great with all the purple stuff on my bike.
Yeah man I am not crazy about oil slick but man when we out in on and seen it in person!! Wow it really adds to the bike :) I bet your diamond back looks fancy now!! LOL Later BIG EASY and see you Friday!
Great Video, it's like you guys read my mind. Currently working on an older Giant Talon frame and I'm slowly integrating a lot of your input into it. Thanks so much, keep em coming!
Heard that, may have to try that out for future videos. I am curious for sure. I seen you mention that a while back as well. Thanks Johannes and nice to hear from you man.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I just ordered an ebike, you got me wanting to order some oil slick parts for it haha. Ordered a cheapo cruiser looking ebike to get back and forth to work, should be a fun little project
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS ACTUALLY... (it's a black bike) now I'm thinking of getting army green pedals and grips and painting some of the bike to match... decisions , decisions... (it's an all black cruiser style ebike) so I'm thinking of painting the front and rear fenders army green, it's got a chain guard, I might leave it off though, but if I put it on, might spray that too... Gonna be a fun little project. But then again, MAYBE I'll go the oil slick route, because it looks so bad ass on your bike... ahhhh , I love having options :P
DUDE!! Doa black and white theme!! Big A** whitewhalls and some chrome fenders?One of those oldschool headlights that generate power by you pedaling? I would do a throw back brother!!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS y’all should put some shirts together. Here an idea for one. Have y’all’s logo working on a bike either wheels rolling away or something and have the caption be “we are not professionals" I would buy one to help support the channel
The way u said IM JUST BEING YOUR SON! Lmao I got the 1x8 set finally done on the gt, thanks for all the tips and videos. Now gotta wait till my hand heals.
We are having a great holiday so far. How is it going for y'all? You were going back to Vegas right? Jeremiah cut his hand tonight while filming Friday's video hahaha. Thanks for your support man.
Thanks Mario, we think the oil slick really sets it off! Gonna be nice and shiny. Now have a good new year man and we will see you FRIDAY! Got the new intro too!
Wolfpack videos now should be sponsored by STRING CHEESE!!! now that should be on a t-shirt just a single packet of string cheese and your dad just straight up chillin' as you put in work!
HA HA HA For sure man, it really helps! LOL Hug appreciated ha ha, now we got you in the Friday shout out video and just may need a new sticker design! Forks coming in HOT son:) Just ordered some and may need to hit you up!!!????
@ More_Beans_Mr_Taggart DAMN!! Thats intense, I changed my grandmothers oil earlier today and I about needed a cheater bar as well! People tightened it waaaaaaaay to much!! LOL
@@more_beans_mr_taggart4057 I ended up buying some PB Blaster and I sprayed it like six times over two hours giving it time to soak before I finally got it with my crescent wrench and removal tool. That PB Blaster now has a permanent place in my bike tool bag.
Hey oscar appreciate it brother, now it's all about the alignment with the cassette. You want the chainring to align with the middle of the cassette, meaning the chain will align that way as well. After adding a spacer on the bottom bracket sometimes the only choice is to mount on the inside depending on the cassette size and the frame design. Thanks man and hope to see you FRIDAY! NEW INTRO!!!
I def do man, It feels like the climbing is such a gamechanger. I have tried it out back to back and the oval is just waaaay more of a torque beast. It is what I like to ride for sure. The oval makes it to wear you have no dead spots while pedaling, its leverage from every rotation. Big fan :)
Good vid guy as normal. Congrats with the weight target achieved . Tell me tick is that you happy now with the zoom brakes as I am thinking about getting a set of purple ones to upgrade my wifes bike. They would go well with the oil slick stuff
Thanks brother, Im excited about the WEIGHT!!:) The brakes are mighty fine man:) Purple is my favorite color so yeah they would go with ANYTHING!! HA HA Sounds cool brother, nice to hear from you
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I have watched all your videos some more than once . I may not comment on all of them but that doesn't mean I haven't seen them and I am talking from early doors . It was me who sent you the pics the other day of my wifes bike with all the oil slick parts and my sons bike the older gt agressor xc3 that I's a 2012 model . Also when I started watching your videos I am talking your air rifle ones so you will know how long ago that was . I wasn't a subscriber then though. Do you still have your rifle ? . My father used to keep greyhounds and me and my wife used to go out lamping at night with the air rifle for rabbits for the dogs it was an weihnrauch hw97k and a sharps inova we had . Sadly though I had to get rid of them as in the uk you now need a licence to have an air rifle and also we don't have the greyhounds anymore so no need to hunt rabbits anymore but those were good times.
@@richardsneddon2976 man Richard, you are an O.G.!! Lol very cool man, I still got it and target practice with it quite often.thats crazy you need a license!! And yes those bikes were sweetman! Have a Happy New Year and see you on the Malus video brother, I know you will watch ha ha!
Depends on if you have a 68mm or 73mm bottom bracket tube on the bike. I typed it backwards the first time. For 68, you usually add 2 spacers on drive side and 1 on non-drive side. Your's is probably 73mm so you did the correct thing with the one spacer. It's basically to make it 73mm wide even if you have a 68mm bike.
@S Lin-HA HA HA Ask SIKBRIK:) 😂😂Just what he said you have a 73mm-the IXF inner BB housing is like a telescoping style, so if you need more spacers for a 68 then it works out fine.
Cool, knocked down below 30lbs! When you install the driver side crank, i recommend put some grease on the driveshaft. And sometimes i cheat when i take off the BB with my 1/2" fuel impact. 😅 and i had those chain guide before, i took it off though, it just felt like it was slowing me down when climbing...let us know how you like it.
Funnt I am like that also brother:) I feel if I can hear it it is slowing me down!!LOL Thats why Im not married:) But I will let you know im sure, and thats what I need at the house 1/2 imapact for sure:) Thanks Jack and see you FRIDAY for a new sram crankset and a new INTRO!!!!
Late again, and you mentioned me so many times... Now I feel bad 😂 When you got that hammer out I was "no, Jeremiah don't do it!" and when you smashed your finger "and... That's why" I felt that one though! Oil slick parts look awesome! How much difference does the oval ring make? Good to see a father and son hugging it out, mad me emotional 😂😂😂, cheese strings looked delicious too Thanks for the shout outs and video, looking forward to the next one. Take care guys 🍻🍻
Lol! Very funny brother and dont feel bad lol, it's all good and def understandable considering you live in the UK. Hope you got yourself some string cheese! And a hug is always good too🤣 the oval ring I feel makes a big difference, ever since we put one on the GTi feel it really helps climbing and extra torque. You need to try for sure man. Anyways Dan thanks for the coffees man and we will see you Friday! MALUS TIME AND NEW INTRO! LATER DANNY BOY
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thanks bro, might get an oval and try it. I think we're about 6 hours ahead of you over here, so it's usually the afternoon when you upload. Yep, love a cheese string, Jacobs pretty obsessed by them too! Looking forward to the Malus, such a cool bike. You don't see many fat bikes here, but I think they looking amazing! Looking forward to the video. Take care and mind those fingers😁
😂Not even sure what we are these days🤣. We have the old fat guy(me) and the fighter that's been hit in the head too much(Jeremiah), I guess it's up to the comments to tell us exactly what we are😂. Thanks man!
Yes. Amazon messed us over back in, I think April or so. They "so thoughtfully" cut down commissions right when covid hit and sent out emails patting themselves on the back about how great they are during the pandemic. We had a affiliate account with them and then they closed it, and we had to keep emailing them to get our money that they owed us. So after all of that you can probably guess that we try not to do too much business with them. By the way I believe you are the first person to notice that we stopped posting Amazon links, so good eye👍. Hope this answered your question thoroughly 😉😂. Do you have any experiences with Amazon?
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thank you very much. I have a little experience with them. I try to always help channels with affiliated links. I appreciate the reply. I started following when you first bought the gt aggressor pro as I bought mine around the same time. Thinking about converting to a budget, lol, 1by maybe go with box, not sure yet. Thanks again!
@@britav8392 Well we appreciate people using our affiliate links and we also understand if they want to use Amazon as well. Thank you for watching our videos, and we hope to hear from you again.👍
Yall ever check out the Shimano Deore M5100 crankset? $50 on performance bike.com. Just ordered one for my 1x conversion on my agressor pro, theyre out of stock right now tho which sucks. Also the Microshift Advent X is all in stock on amazon right now too
Havent checked that out yet man? But we may now!! LOL Thanks we will check on Ebay, we have seen and heard good things when it comes to the advent, we really like the Microshift Acolyte as well. Very good deal
Shit man, I just went through the same, vid coming out after new year. Smashed my finger, that crank arm was a pain in the but, let's just say, I had to persuade it. Omg, we use the same tools, lol
HA HA HA Sounds like we hit ourselves as well!! Have fun man and will be watching, also got you in the shoutout video coming out FRIDAY!!! Thanks again for the COFFEES
Interesting to see how these cheap cranks hold up compared to cheap shimano cranks, I have had pedals fall off, twisted spider, even bent a race face chainring which is strong, but was mounted on M552 cranks which were weak only lasted few weeks. How long do you take on the cranks? For me it would cos too much to get aliexpress stuff. So I don't get any thing internally unless I have to. But I already have robust cranks. RF Atlas.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I guess you order on amazon? Many of the things are actually in China or some other place. Depends who you order from, some are resellers, sometimes directly from manufacturer. Here it's 25% added value tax, plus shipping, but I can't get everything in Norway so I have to do it sometimes.
Man I really dont like the budget style full suspension bikes. I like the cheaper hardtails for right now. Maybe after some rear upgrades they will be better? But man I really like the hardtails.
Don't use a hammer on your bb removal. You'll and up breaking your threads. If it's locking up, get some lube on it and use a cheater bar on your wrench. And offcourse, make sure you're turning in the right direction before using the cheater bar. Also I like to grease the crank shaft, but I'm not sure if you're supposed to.
Man that's a tuff one. Jeremiah says X-Fusion Enix fork, but then you will also need a headset. I say that's not a bad idea, especially since you love to jump your bike so much. But you can still get that Acolyte groupset plus chain for like around $100 and have money leftover for other upgrades. It's a tough call for sure. What are your thoughts? You could also go one of the cheap Chinese forks and a groupset, but then you still need the headset.🤔 It's a fun decision to have to make haha.
@@colemiller9938 That's a good idea. I believe the chain in our description on the Acolyte video is still available and works great. Let us know if you have any questions. Oh yeah if you get that Acolyte cassette make sure it's the 46t so you have the good low range.
I stripped the threads on a bottom bracket yuck. I will say RJ the bike guy has a video showing removing square taper cranks with the threads stripped. he modifies a set of 3 jawed bearing pullers to grab the back side of the crank arm.
I love you guys , I love the way you are to each other . It is beautiful to watch you both being father and son .
Man that is awesome Armando, thank you:) We have a unique relationship.
Great video

@@britav8392 Well we appreciate people using our affiliate links and we also understand if they want to use Amazon as well. Thank you for watching our videos, and we hope to hear from you again.👍
@@britav8392 Oh yeah also you can get that Acolyte groupset for around $100 and it has been absolutely awesome so far.
Yall ever check out the Shimano Deore M5100 crankset? $50 on performance bike.com. Just ordered one for my 1x conversion on my agressor pro, theyre out of stock right now tho which sucks. Also the Microshift Advent X is all in stock on amazon right now too
Havent checked that out yet man? But we may now!! LOL Thanks we will check on Ebay, we have seen and heard good things when it comes to the advent, we really like the Microshift Acolyte as well. Very good deal
Shit man, I just went through the same, vid coming out after new year.
Smashed my finger, that crank arm was a pain in the but, let's just say, I had to persuade it.
Omg, we use the same tools, lol
HA HA HA Sounds like we hit ourselves as well!! Have fun man and will be watching, also got you in the shoutout video coming out FRIDAY!!! Thanks again for the COFFEES
Interesting to see how these cheap cranks hold up compared to cheap shimano cranks, I have had pedals fall off, twisted spider, even bent a race face chainring which is strong, but was mounted on M552 cranks which were weak only lasted few weeks. How long do you take on the cranks? For me it would cos too much to get aliexpress stuff. So I don't get any thing internally unless I have to. But I already have robust cranks. RF Atlas.
Really? That's a long time to wait, we usually wait on mail for about 10 days or so. We order only in the U.S.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS long time to wait for what? I meant the cranks failed when few weeks old.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I guess you order on amazon? Many of the things are actually in China or some other place. Depends who you order from, some are resellers, sometimes directly from manufacturer. Here it's 25% added value tax, plus shipping, but I can't get everything in Norway so I have to do it sometimes.
😯😯
Ebay shows were sellers are located, U,S. only unless its something we can wait on....
Oil slick looks kool, but paint the stem black ao u don't see the bare metal thru the stem part
AGREED!
Can you put the original Schwinn cranks on the upgraded bottom bracket?
No, the originals are square tapered and this is a hollow design.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thank you! Complete newbie here transitioning from the bmx world.
Brother when you gonna work on the al comp ?
Hey man its coming, got some parts ordered and still need to get a new groupset.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS brother you got the message about that bike is a double
Suspensión what yo think about those ?
Man I really dont like the budget style full suspension bikes. I like the cheaper hardtails for right now. Maybe after some rear upgrades they will be better? But man I really like the hardtails.
The Gannoper and the IXF are the same product under different names . Decent quality shit , they get the job done .
Man that's what we like, stuff that's afirdable and gets the job done!! 🤘
Don't use a hammer on your bb removal. You'll and up breaking your threads. If it's locking up, get some lube on it and use a cheater bar on your wrench. And offcourse, make sure you're turning in the right direction before using the cheater bar. Also I like to grease the crank shaft, but I'm not sure if you're supposed to.
😅😅🤫ha ha will do man, thanks for the heads up! Wrong way was terrible lol. Appreciate ya Vexis
Hey I have been saving a while and have $200 dollars what do you recommend I upgrade first on my Gt
Man that's a tuff one. Jeremiah says X-Fusion Enix fork, but then you will also need a headset. I say that's not a bad idea, especially since you love to jump your bike so much. But you can still get that Acolyte groupset plus chain for like around $100 and have money leftover for other upgrades. It's a tough call for sure. What are your thoughts? You could also go one of the cheap Chinese forks and a groupset, but then you still need the headset.🤔 It's a fun decision to have to make haha.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I also I have a birthday in January so maybe I will have some more money then but I might get the acolyte group set and a 1x
@@colemiller9938 That's a good idea. I believe the chain in our description on the Acolyte video is still available and works great. Let us know if you have any questions. Oh yeah if you get that Acolyte cassette make sure it's the 46t so you have the good low range.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS ok
What size tires on on that bike?
In this video we have 29x2.1 on the rear and 2.0 on the front. We will be doing a tire review and half way through we will switch them. Thanks
I stripped the threads on a bottom bracket yuck. I will say RJ the bike guy has a video showing removing square taper cranks with the threads stripped. he modifies a set of 3 jawed bearing pullers to grab the back side of the crank arm.
Yeah that sucks, but happens a lot. Now I'm curious about that video that you are talking about. Thanks
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS th-cam.com/video/jrpIoXxVyTs/w-d-xo.html
not really an oil slick kinda guy but it does fit that bike well
Thanks bud! It's growing on me, but Jeremiah loves it, so that's good.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS hey brother, will the crankset fit on the GT aggressor? I think I'm ready to convert into the 1 x 8 oval chainring
Yes sir it will, that or try the IXF they are both pretty good deals:)checkout the affiliate links brother, thanks!!
If u cut some of the seat poast lengtht of u can loos pounds since u dont need it shorty😁😂😆😅
