7:19 i’ve always called this stem a quill stem always grease the bolt and the quill before you put it inside the fork 👍🚲💨

[@429supercj]

That's the actual name. Goose neck is slang.

[@La_motavation]

It kinda hurt seeing him grab the white wheels with greasy hands lol

[@MorbidThrasher666]

yup

[@2smokeluke]

Beautiful bike. Love those cranks, I’m running them on my dyno and they are amazing

[@OH.A.M.]

To me the Gyro mechanism is one amazing idea that till this day it amazes me how it works.

[@MorbidThrasher666]

Thanx to the man Brian Scura 👍 GT had it first because it was made as a prototype first for Martin Apurijo then he made a deal with odyssey to mass produce it and made $1 commission of each one sold

[@OH.A.M.]

@@MorbidThrasher666 Wow! Thanks for sharing that info my friend

[@Gornflyin]

A lot of those vintage style stems/goosenecks , don't have a hole through the bolt that attaches to the quill. If memory serves me correctly, getting a bolt with the hole in it was called a potts mod. Had to do this with a Mongoose 16" scooter Im restoring.

[@simonbelton7165]

I have an 87 dayglo pink resto mod . Love it . Eddie Fiola been over here in the Uk a few times for old school ride outs. Great guy . Keep the videos coming❤

[@MorbidThrasher666]

That GT seat was so clean,$400-500 right in your hand. I was already laughing at the part he was putting the top gryo plate on without putting the detangler on first,lol. Dont forget to put the logos of the tires right over the valve caps,lol. Cant wait for part 2

[@jeremiefitzpatrick9722]

really cool build up, cant wait for next video!

[@therepresentative1619]

Good job EPIC!!👍👍

[@BlackyBrownDestruction9337]

I use a coaster brake

[@rickortiz654]

Wow! I had that same make & model color! Can’t remember it it was full cromo frame, bars, & fork.🤔

[@dennieferguson4701]

Awesome job ❤

[@CUSTOMTOYSLF22]

love this stuff lads 🤘

[@keam210tx]

Keepin the builds epic💪

[@adhaetjamn]

I wish I lived closer! I spend a chunk of my time shooting the bull in bike shops! I have some stuff I'd bring along to show the staff.

[@cfmechanic]

Feel like they been hiding your videos from my feed. Got that slick 😎 hair too.

[@mikehagen3785]

Original Goosemeck stems were single clamp necks, real old school stuff, then the Double Gooseneck came out. The motorcycle clamp style neck, like the Cooks Bros bike had, that GT just has a quill neck basically.
The Performer in my avatar was spray painted green and all the original pink was safely undermesth. New correct tires,NOS decals on the all og bike, right down to the gyro cables and it's awesome.

[@JoseMedina-ms5jg]

Good work gents. Are these the Odyssey Gyro G3? I’m building a 95 Performer but I thing it’s got a 1 inch threaded fork. Not sure if it will fit.

[@AlfredoMancuso]

These are all 1 1/8”

[@shawng8432]

He said he ate a lot of goose neck lol. He must be talking about the Christmas goose with the head still intact at the Chinese Fa Ra Ra Ra Ra…..

[@drumfanatik316]

Awesome job! Question though? I’m looking at an ‘88 or ‘89 to purchase and restore, maybe you can tell me what the frame is made of on those models? Having a hard time finding any info online? Are they chromoly or trimoly frames? Thanks!

[@randycollins2607]

😎🤘

[@jasoncook2795]

The best bmx shop I can just imagine the variety of parts you guys have in stock how can I order from u guys

[@alfredo3111]

👋

[@robertpresti7775]

These are the builds I want to see PHU.
A guy in my Haro group came buy and bought a Haro Sport frame frame you for $700 a bit pricey but if you have any more Haro frames let me know I'll buy ASAP I'm from Chicago would you ship? I'll pay any way you feel comfortable.

[@martinmendozagonzalez6102]

Oye Fredy me acen falta unas cuantas piezas para armar mi gt

[@kevinbreckenridge6729]

Nobody stepped on the dog 🐕, told you it would figure it out eventually!

[@ralphmartinez2236]

What type bottom bracket kit is needed for the 1987 Gt Performer?

[@Bimmer35]

My favorite bike is a 99 GT Show. Sold it when i stopped riding and regretted it ever since because now they go for stupid money

[@josephmiller3093]

Where do you get the stickers. I need dyno zone stickers for a 99

[@fishyzinga]

😆 anything looks brand new when it's painted

[@erocker78]

I had white mags when I was a kid and they always got dirty so easily. I hated having to clean them all the time.

[@JeffyJæmes]

Please do more excessive team holding when working on stuff LOL. This is awesome stuff though

[@loadedfun4764]

Performers were heavy AF.
The pro performers were a lot lighter.

[@c4yd3n49]

Dam I'm early

[@VailSkateSupply1]

Grease the whole not the pole. Trust me it works more better.

[@429supercj]

That headset is not greased it barely had anything on it, it needs to be packed with grease.

[@radkesrods1184]

NOT a gooseneck, goose neck is 1 piece with one bolt. like off kent or huffy jerkoff datsun thats top load stem. how do i know? im of the age we invented these words, bikes, parts, tricks etc.
