This is a video that was needed, a lot of people throw away perfectly good coaster-brake rims, just because they're intimidated by the thought of taking one apart, these are quality rims with a very reliable built-in brake that NEVER wears-out, why wouldn't you do everything possible to make it work?, PEOPLE!!, I'm also a firm believer in redundancy when it comes to bike-brakes, always use some type of clamp-brake on at least one wheel when running a coaster-brake, that way if your chain breaks, or you just need some extra stopping power, you'll have it, great video, and thanks for sharing.
A tip I learned from my local pro bicycle shop, you can do away with the (caged bearings) and just install loose ball bearings in its place. What this does is increase the amount of ball bearings in the hub so you have more complete ball bearing to cone surface coverage. Just buy loose ball bearings from your local shop, they are cheap and it is better.
I had to replace the whole bearings on my phatmoto after 2 months riding because they were making noise and my jackshaft bearings also had to be replaced.
@@richardfelmlee5193 It appears that bicycles from China come with not enough grease or inferior grease in the hubs and bearings. So the bearings tend to fail early.
I just ordered a 100cc-2stroke engine online From Walmart and it will arrive next week on May 09. I'm excited and never had one much less built one. Your videos are inspiring me
Before i ride any of my builds a triple check everything because I’ve definitely learned that these metal parts will do a lot of damage if any little thing goes wrong and almost cost me my life
Every body makes mistakes bro, the important thing is, we learn from them , I watch all your videos,, my first build, 49,4 stroke on a Kent sea change.
Hey, the video you did on the front disc brakes, you don't center up the rotor in the brake caliper. They are no self centering like on a car, you actually need the inside pad, the one closest to the spokes to nearly touch the rotor, if not every time you use the brake, you'll be bending the rotor.
Thanks for making a video on this subject. I've made this mistake a couple times. It's great that someone has made a video on this because this is the stuff new builders need to be made aware of. I've found that using a freewheel hub instead of the coaster brake solves a lot of issues, and eliminates the complexity of the sprocket installation. Thanks for the awesome videos. Keep them up.
Great video, Tony! Clever idea with the vice-grips in the lap to keep one side stationary while you fiddle with the other side. For the cone-nut/jam nut adjustment, I’ll grab the shaved wrench and a few spokes with one hand to maintain that position of the cone nut and work the jam nut with the top wrench and my free hand. This will keep the cone nut from walking on ya while you’re snugging down the jam nut. They call that bearing crown a “race”.
Hey me and my buddy were working on a a rear assembly for just flipping the the rear 70 gear assembly to make it on the left side we've almost got it and I think it's going to work
Thanks for sharing, definitely something you can overlook when rushing things, I know I wanted my build done. 😂 Also you should address the fake winner scam bots please. I don’t want people getting got, not sure what they ask for but I knew better.
The rim that works best for motorized bicycle is mag or if you want a spoke wheel will cost around $300 . Sealed cartrage is the best bearing hub but you will have to have hand brakes .
Mags break your crazy to recommend them. When one snaps on you you’ll know what your saying to people. You can buy a 12 gauge rim for 100 steel rim on Amazon or 150 on Walmart online. Gemini and ghetto bike don’t even cost that!!Straight trash just to say something.
I am fast becoming a motorized bicycle enthusias.. you have been a big help building mine. I have a cnc 1.5 rear hub coming in tomorrow but heard it gonna be hard to fit on a mountain bike rim. So I got the 1inch adapter pad as well. Could you give me some pointers?
the wrench idea is a cool idea . but you know they sell cone wrenches . not sure if you knew or not but yeah they even have a pretty cool bicycle tool kit with everything you would ever need to fix your bike on amazon fairly cheap . i think like for between 45 and 60 dollars .
For sure! I’ll definitely get those tools for future projects. The reason I’m keeping with regular tools at the moment is because this is geared towards beginners with basic tools. Appreciate you diy!
@@tonytaylor5087 for sure i get it . alot not al but alot of the kids now days dont even know how to change handle bars dont ask me how i know but its true lol . so its good info for sure . as for the tools i ran across them searching for cone wrenches myself and ran across a whole kit of basically every tool you could want in a small kit . even had a free wheel wrench . you know the one with the bike chain that wraps around the sprocket to lock it in place . for the price i cant remember how much it was but it was under 100 dollars between 40 and 60 dollars . just search bicycle tool kits they have loads of them to choose from . good luck and ride safe buddy .
good video thank for videos i just found your videos the one i started with was gas mix so i decided to watch all/or most of the cruz yes i would to win but you did a great job
Thank you. Thank you. I did this very rebuild today following your grease and lune video. I will redo it tomorrow making sure all is right. I find using an ATV type throttle instead of twist grip easier and much more responsive. Jus sayin. Thank you for all the great videos.
Should the wheel spin freely on the axle? I know that might be a foolish question but I’m new at this. I have tried to adjust mine, I have coaster breaks and I can’t keep the axle tight on the wheel. Any help you can give would be a great help. Thanks!
I just ordered my 1st set of mag wheels can u do a video on how I put them together on a swinn cruiser. Had alot of problems with spoke wheels. Can u please help me thanks
I used red loctite on my 3060 sprocket on my mag wheels one of my mag wheels got destroyed because bolts back out not taking chance on the blue loctite using red I don't ever intend to take it off the mag wheels are awesome if your prelocktite the bolts if not I will destroy your bolt holes and your bolts from wobbling
Need help with my friction drive every time it rains it loses traction on a friction drive no matter how tight I make it onto the wheel need help please.
Hey do you have a number to were I can call and ask advice on how to fix my motorized bicycle my back wheel is locked I have to use the clutch to be able to move my tires
How would i go about changing my rear wheel to a heavy duty wheel with 12g spokes and still maintain my 7speed freewheel hub on my bike and use the cnc hub adapter instead of a rag joint?
Every heavyduty wheel replacement with 12g spokes i find has a coaster brake style hub and i would rather maintain the caliper style brakes when i install my motor kit
Serious question on rear hubs. Mine has been heating up extensively during high speeds, to where I can't touch it more than 1 sec. What do you think causes that? I have no grinding etc. And almost no play in the axle and bearings. I think it might be wrong grease and or bearings aren't meant for speeds greater than 15mph. I have automotive bearing grease I can use, but is their after market solution or fix for this? Is this common?
I've gotten my friends Laughing because I carry spare parts enough tools I could almost brake down and rebuild the whole bike and motor. Its a bad feeling to break down and not able to get home. I'm in bfe 12mile trip just to closes gas station
Use a propane torch to warm up the cylinder for easy start in the winter. Just keep the flame moving evenly around the fins and stay away from the gaskets.
Shouldn’t have a noob giving out advice on these bikes duh! I’m available!! Lmao 🤣 first advice…. Don’t buy bike berry upgrades until ya know how to use them properly those reeds ya need to port ya engine correctly to get it right or ya lose power
I have been ripped off by Bikeberry. This Tony Taylor is not "with Bikeberry". I made a 3 part series, here is Part 1: th-cam.com/video/SIesMYMM-dE/w-d-xo.html
First of all you don't know what you're doing you're putting people's life in danger because you should never use a coaster rim on a motorized bike anybody and everybody knows that that knows anything about a motorized bike

I’ve been thinking about doing that. I’ll add it to the list. Appreciate the insight!
I've done my one-piece crank bearings this way, no problems yet.
I've done this when it was all I had never seemed to mess with anything ran fine till the rim was out of life hub was still perfect lol
I had to replace the whole bearings on my phatmoto after 2 months riding because they were making noise and my jackshaft bearings also had to be replaced.

I did this a couple times before I realized what I was doing wrong lol. I'm ready for the new series today I'm all about customizing my ride 😎
Keep up the good work tony
Had the same thing happen on my front wheel, I had to just replace the wheel because the bearing also ruined the bearing surface in the wheel
Even when you don't #BUILDITRIGHT gotta double check. Good job no one is perfect things happen its all good.
💯 my man!

You’re welcome! Thank you for the encouragement!
Great video working on my first build and looking for all the things I should avoid and do extra before I put it all together
Great tips!!
I've already learned that mistake!!
Live and we learn.😅

That’s a good way to do it! Oh yeah, totally forgot about it being called a “race”! I’ll remember next time. Thanks so much!

I needed this lol thanks Tony #builditright
good video thank for videos i just found your videos the one i started with was gas mix so i decided to watch all/or most of the cruz yes i would to win but you did a great job
I would mention that you should clean the inside of the wheel before installing new bearing to remove debris from old bearing!
Awesome video
Their is a video of kids riding a motorized bike -8 temperature so never too cold to ride
I would love to get this bike
I want this beautiful bike
Thank you. Thank you. I did this very rebuild today following your grease and lune video. I will redo it tomorrow making sure all is right.
I find using an ATV type throttle instead of twist grip easier and much more responsive. Jus sayin. Thank you for all the great videos.
Cool! Glad this helped just in time! Yeah I’m going to try an ATV thumb throttle in the future. Let us know how your project is going!
I know it's hard when the weather is bad
I love watching your videos my name is James I’m having the same problem with my back rim

I just ordered my 1st set of mag wheels can u do a video on how I put them together on a swinn cruiser. Had alot of problems with spoke wheels. Can u please help me thanks
If you dont have the crown i put a bunch of ball bearings instead but of that size
Yo my boy La got a free shout out noice 👍

Even when we #BUILDITRIGHT things don't always turn out quite right.
How do you run a rear coaster brake with that hub sprocket adapter?
Hey I got a twin stingray how do I adjust the brakes because I broke the whole bike down to sand it and give it a paint job
How i messed up this rim on gas bike used it lol triple wall rims all the way!
Is a stabilizer connected to the motor sprocket? My hub is messed up and I don’t know how to make it stronger.
I've done that before 2😁
What size is the wheel hub adapter
Need help with my friction drive every time it rains it loses traction on a friction drive no matter how tight I make it onto the wheel need help please.
I'm planning on making a motorized bicycle but my bike have a quick release wheel, will that be a problem?
Dude I did the same exact same thing
Why are there not sealed bearings for these? Only old roller bearings
Used car car wheel wheel bearing Grease it's high temperature grease and it'll make your bearings last longer
balls down. good to know!😅
You don't know how much cussing I've done because I need a thin wrench
Hey do you have a number to were I can call and ask advice on how to fix my motorized bicycle my back wheel is locked I have to use the clutch to be able to move my tires

Just the way it is with the friction of high speeds.
Mistakes happen. thanks for doing that so we dont have to.
Awe man. I just ruined 2 rims. Untrue. Spokes popped off and tire curled to the right. I got a new motor bike rear rim. Thicker stronger spokes.

Thanks LA!
What’s good my guy
Hey la hover did you ever get your 4 stroke to run good?
I know you had it on a bike but then It kinda disappeared
Or just buy cone wrenches and do it the right way.
Hello
Here watching from Orlando #BUILDITRIGHT
My spokes just fall off every time
Give me a chance
#Builditright
Oh no ya out it in wrong way! Should be using a freewheel anyway!
Use a propane torch to warm up the cylinder for easy start in the winter. Just keep the flame moving evenly around the fins and stay away from the gaskets.
