hey i just got a gt aggressor pro 27.5 xl, and i got the bike with a messed up rim and spokes are messed up to and i wanna swap the disk and cassette to a new rim, is there anyway you could help me find a rim thats cheap ish with hub and spokes on amazon, great video btw
Any rim that is a 27.5 mountain bike rim should be fine. The challenge is the rear hub because it is the older style QR or quick release so you need one that is either QR out of the box, or one that comes with a QR conversion kit. I think that the rear hub is a 135 x 9 (QR) but am not 100%. I still need to do this upgrade so I don't have a specific recommendation regarding what to get.
@carterwheeliez i had the same issue my rear wheel only lasted a few rides and then ingot the Bucklos MTB wheel off Amazon and it's been great. I was reading online and GT has always been known for shitty wheels apparently
Onde posso ver uma dessas?me interessei!
Adicionei links para tudo usado no vídeo na descrição.
It never ends...
That's why I started a TH-cam channel. Recover some costs
Are gonna still be upgrading this bike?
Yes
1 x drive and wheel set
@@DIYNorth great cant wait to see it

The ones on the aggressor pro are definately sub standard
Wow! I didn’t realize such cool upgrades exist for bikes! Do you think there’s any hope for my 1991 Schwin Crisscross bike?
I mean...yes.
But I think maybe just waiting for a good sale at Dick's sporting goods and just going brand new might be the best move at this point
@@DIYNorth I think you’re right! Thank you for confirming my suspicions that it may be too late to upgrade a 30-year old bike!
